Ensure adequate spill response measures are included in the Emergency Response Plan.<br />

Ensure adequate spill containment and response equipment are available, including oil booms and oil<br />

spill dispersants.<br />

Regularly maintain all equipment to prevent failures of pipelines, etc.<br />

Ensure all on site staff are trained in the requirements of the Emergency Response Plan and in the use of<br />

spill containment and response equipment.<br />

Ensure all safety precautions are taken during loading and off-loading of potential contaminants.<br />

Develop (or maintain and adapt) procedures for the safe transport, handling and storage of potential<br />

pollutants.<br />

Locate hazardous material storage facilities, especially fuel storage, as far as practically possible from<br />

the Suriname River.<br />

Design and construct hazardous material storage facilities with suitable impermeable materials and a<br />

minimum 110% containment capacity.<br />

Ensure all on site staff are trained in the use of spill prevention measures.<br />

Clean up any spills immediately, through containment and removal of free product and appropriate<br />

rehabilitation or disposal of contaminated soils.<br />

Implement an ongoing and comprehensive water and effluent quality monitoring programme with<br />

regular reporting of monitoring results to NIMOS.<br />

Limit the footprint of construction activities, including laydown areas.<br />

Implement mitigation measures to reduce the potential impact of soil and water contamination.<br />
