8. SPCC PLAN REQUIREMENTS FOR ON-SHORE FACILITIES [40 CFR 112.8]
8.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS [40 CFR 112.8(a)]
This Plan meets the general requirements of 40 CFR 112.7, as discussed above, and also meets
the requirements of 40 CFR 112.8, as discussed below.
8.2 FACILITY DRAINAGE [40 CFR 112.8(b)]
Oil products are present in several areas of the facility. Drainage or excessive leakage of oil is
effectively managed from diked storage areas and undiked areas.
8.2.1 Drainage From Diked Storage Areas [40 CFR 112.8(b)(1)]
The diked AST at Building 1556 is drained through a pipe that enters into the oil/water
separator. The oil/water separator is connected to the publicly owned treatment works for the
Town of Blackstone. The diked AST at Building 1307 is inspected and manually released
through a ball valve at the west end of the basin. The secondary containment berms for the
tanker trucks and used oil tank at MATES and the tanker truck at FPTM are released once the
operator has inspected the rainwater for an oil sheen. Once inspected the rainwater is released
through a ball valve on the west side of the containment berm. All valves are kept in the closed
position for each of the diked tanks and the secondary containment berms.
8.2.2 Drainage Valves Used On Diked Storage Areas [40 CFR 112.8(b)(2)]
The valves used to drain rainwater from the diked storage areas are manually operated open-andclosed
design. Retained storm water in these three areas is visually inspected prior to opening the
valves to ensure that no oil is discharged from the containment areas. Inspections are performed
and documented as outlined in Section 7.5.
8.2.3 Drainage Systems From Undiked Areas [40 CFR 112.8(b)(3)]
Drainage systems from undiked areas flow directly or indirectly into the storm water drainage
system. The storm water drainage system consists of a series of concrete pipes and concrete and
earthen drainage ditches. This system drains into a tributary of the Nottoway River. No ponds,
lagoons, or catchment basins are located to retain storm water runoff from undiked portions of
MTC-Fort Pickett facility.
8.2.4 Final Discharge Diversion Systems [40 CFR 112.8(b)(4)]
Not applicable to MTC-Fort Pickett Facility.
8.2.5 Drainage Water Treatment Systems [40 CFR 112.8(b)(5)]
Not applicable to MTC-Fort Pickett Facility.
