15、fective January 10, 1974, and has been revised several times over the past thirty-six years. In 2002, EPA finalized changes proposed from 1991 to 1997. API and other litigants subsequently filed suit over certain provisions. In March 2004, most of the issues raised in the litigation SPCC-related sui
16、ts were settled. This revision includes results of the litigation in which API was involved (Exhibit A Settlement Agreements). On June 19, 2009, EPA published in the Federal Register an SPCC compliance date extension for all existing facilities until November 10, 2010. Facilities must amend or prepa
17、re, and implement SPCC Plans by the compliance date in accordance with revisions to the SPCC rule promulgated since 2002. The latest SPCC amendments and definition of “navigable waters” were promulgated on December 2006 (71 FR 77266, December 26, 2006), December 2008 (73 FR 74236, December 5, 2008),
18、 November 2009 (74 FR 58784, November 13, 2009) and November 2008 (73 FR 71941, November 26, 2008), respectively. For more information, on EPA SPCC guidance, visit EPA Website (www.epa.gov/oilspill). This is the fifth revision of the American Petroleum Institutes (APIs) Bulletin D-16. Its sole purpo
19、se is to assist the petroleum industry in understanding the SPCC regulation and to offer guidance for developing SPCC Plans wherever they are needed. Included is a template for developing SPCC Plans (i.e., onshore excluding production; onshore oil production, oil drilling or workover; or offshore oi
20、l drilling, production or workover) in accordance with the regulation and guidance, along with instruction and clarification for completing each section of the template.

22、ill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan Guidance, Instruction, Clarification GUIDE - 2 Purpose of SPCC Rule The regulation is divided into three subparts, which detail the requirements for a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan. Subpart A ( 112.1 to 112.7) contains an a
23、pplicability section, definitions, and general requirements for all facilities that are SPCC-regulated. Subpart B (112.8 to 112.11) sets out the SPCC requirements for petroleum oil and non-petroleum oils other than animal fats and vegetable oils. Subpart C (112.12) sets out the SPCC Plan requirement
24、s for animal fats, oils, and greases, fish and marine mammal oils; and oils of vegetable origin, including oils from seeds, nuts, fruits, and kernels. The SPCC Plan is the foundation of EPAs oil spill prevention program. Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan Guidance, Instruction, Clari
25、fication GUIDE - 3 Timeline for Compliance On August 3, 2010, EPA published a proposed rule (75 FR 45572) to amend SPCC compliance dates as follows. Note that this citation is to a proposed rule and not a final agency action. Users of this guidance are urged to verify this information and whether th
26、e agency has issued a final action. z If your fixed, mobile, or portable drilling, production, or workover facility that is offshore or is offshore with onshore components, was in operation on or before August 16, 2002, you must amend your Plan as necessary, maintain your plan, and amend as necessar
27、y to comply with the July 17, 2002, revised rule and subsequent amendments and certify the plan on or before November 10, 2010. o If your offshore facility, or offshore facility with onshore components, became operational after August 16, 2002, a Plan must be prepared and implemented on or before No
28、vember 10, 2010. o If your offshore facility, or offshore facility with onshore components, became operational after November 10, 2010, a Plan must be prepared and implemented before beginning operations. z If your onshore facility requiring you to have and submit a Facility Response Plan (FRP) was
29、in operation on or before August 16, 2002, you must amend your Plan as necessary, maintain your plan, and amend as necessary to comply with the July 17, 2002, revised rule and subsequent amendments and certify the plan on or before November 10, 2010. o If your onshore facility requiring an FRP becam
30、e operational after August 16, 2002, a Plan must be prepared and implemented on or before November 10, 2010. o If your onshore facility requiring an FRP became operational after November 10, 2010, a Plan must be prepared and implemented before beginning operations. z If your facility, or mobile or p
31、ortable facility, excluding drilling, production, and workover facilities, including mobile and portable facilities, that are offshore or are offshore with onshore components, and excluding onshore facilities required to have and submit Facility Response Plans, was in operation on or before August 1
32、6, 2002, you must amend your Plan as necessary, maintain your plan, and amend as necessary to comply with the July 17, 2002, revised rule and subsequent amendments and certify the plan on or before November 10, 2011. o If your facility, or mobile or portable facility, excluding drilling, production,
33、 and workover facilities, including mobile and portable facilities, that are offshore or are offshore with onshore components, and excluding onshore facilities required to have and submit Facility Response Plans, became operational after August 16, 2002, a Plan must be prepared and implemented on or
34、 before November 10, 2011. o If your facility, or mobile or portable facility, excluding drilling, production, and workover facilities, including mobile and portable facilities, that are offshore or are offshore with onshore components, and excluding onshore facilities required to Spill Prevention,
35、Control, and Countermeasure Plan Guidance, Instruction, Clarification GUIDE - 4 have and submit Facility Response Plans, became operational after November 10, 2011, a Plan must be prepared and implemented before beginning operations. z Acquired facilities are covered existing facilities and must be
36、in compliance with the same requirements based on their operational status as described above. z Mobile drilling or workover facilities without SPCC Plans are out of compliance and should take all necessary steps to get into compliance as soon as possible. If it is necessary to amend an existing Pla
37、n to comply with the revised rule, then it must be amended on or before November 10, 2010. Extensions for Implementing the SPCC Plan If an owner/operator cannot comply with the time requirement due to non-availability of qualified personnel or delay in construction or equipment delivery beyond his c
38、ontrol, he/she may request an extension of time by a letter request to the EPA Regional Administrator (112.3(f)(2). The letter must include: z A full explanation of the cause for any such delay and the specific aspects of the SPCC Plan affected by the delay; z A full discussion of actions being take
39、n or contemplated to minimize or mitigate such delay; and, z A proposed time schedule for the implementation of any corrective actions being taken or contemplated, including interim dates for completion of tests or studies, installation and operation of any necessary equipment, or other preventive m
40、easures. The Regional Administrator may request a copy of the SPCC Plan or any additional information at any time. The D-16 Bulletin provides the owner/operator of a regulated facility with the basic information to prepare, and guidance to assist users with the implementation of, an SPCC Plan (Acron
41、yms used in the Bulletin are listed in Exhibit B). The first step is to determine applicability (see GENERAL APPLICABILITY, Figure 1). If applicable, instructions on utilizing the Bulletins templates are outlined under GUIDELINES FOR PLAN PREPARATION AND IMPLEMENTATION.) These guidelines supplement
42、details or clarify information required to prepare an SPCC Plan. The suggested sections attached in the template will assist the user in developing a Plan. All facilities will use Section 1 and the appropriate Section 2 based on facility type (see PREPARATION AND IMPLEMENTATION, Figure 2). The templ
43、ate may be utilized and/or copied as necessary in the preparation of either single or multiple facility SPCC Plans. The use of the template will simplify preparation and provide uniformity in completed Plans. The appendices are provided to assist the user with supporting documentation (i.e. site dia
44、gram, notifications, inspection logs, etc.) Individual state requirements are not part of the guidance and template. Users of the Bulletin should consult the state agency(ies) associated with oil spill prevention for state requirements (See Exhibit A.) Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure P
45、lan Guidance, Instruction, Clarification GUIDE - 5 Applicability The applicability of this rule to a facility can be determined by following the flow chart provided in Figure 1. The flow chart summarizes the three-step decision process. Additional guidance and clarification is provided below: STEP 1
46、: Determine if your facility (defined in 112.2) is a non-transportation related onshore or offshore facility. An SPCC Plan must be prepared by the owner or operator of onshore and offshore non-transportation related facilities engaged in drilling, producing, gathering, storing, processing, refining,
47、 transferring, distributing, using, and/or consuming oil and oil products who meet the additional requirements under Steps 2 and 3. z “Facility means any mobile or fixed, onshore or offshore building, property, parcel, lease, structure, installation, equipment, pipe, or pipeline (other than a vessel
48、 or a public vessel) used in oil well drilling operations, oil production, oil refining, oil gathering, oil processing, oil transfer, oil distribution, and oil waste treatment, or in which oil is used, as described in Appendix A to this part. The boundaries of a facility depend on several site-speci
49、fic factors, including, but not limited to, the ownership or operation of buildings, structures, and equipment on the same site and the types of activity at the site. Contiguous or non-contiguous buildings, properties, parcels, leases, structures, installations, pipes, or pipelines under the ownership or operation of the same person may be considered separate facilities. Only this definition governs whether a facility is subject to this part” (40 CFR 112.2 Definitions). In the preamble of the 2002 rule, the table
