2 SPILL PREVENTION AND REPORTING Report emergency spills immediately to Regional Emergency Dispatch by calling 911 on NAVSTA Everett landlines or 425-304-3333 on cell phones. The definition of emergency and non-emergency spills can be found in Section 2.2. The Oil and Hazardous Substance Integrated Contingency Plan (ICP), Ref. (1), governs how spills will be reported and managed.

All contractor personnel, including subcontractors, performing work at NAVSTA Everett, must be aware of and understand spill prevention, spill events, and the proper response for each type of event. A copy of Attachment (1) shall be posted on official bulletin boards, throughout offices and work areas, specifically oil and hazardous material handling areas. Fill in the three blanks on the bottom for the form.

2.1 Spill Prevention Contractors shall take all reasonable and necessary precautions to prevent Oil and Hazardous Substances (OHS) from reaching the air, ground, or waterways. General requirements include ensuring there is secondary containment or diversionary structures in place as necessary to prevent a discharge to navigable waters. Reasonable steps, at a minimum, shall include the following:

a. Place a spill response kit at or near HM and hazardous waste handling and transfer work sites. Post the list of the materials for the spill kit and confirm contents are not expired and fully stocked quarterly.

b. Place OHS in approved containers and label them. Inspect containers to ensure integrity prior to the transfer of material and storage of oil and hazardous substances. Secure all containers (i.e., drum covers on) when not in use. Store all containers in approved lockers or facilities. Maintained approved facilities in a clean and orderly manner. Secure all containers prior to transportation.

c. Protect storm drains, catch basins, manholes, and floor drains within the drainage area of OHS operations with a mat, plug or other suitable device to prevent flow into subsurface distribution systems. Spill containment around fuel tanks should be free of water prior to fuel transfers.

d. Contractors OHS equipment: All OHS containers with a capacity of 55 gallons or more must be located in impermeable secondary containment. The containment must be capable of containing 100 percent of the largest container within the containment. Where possible, cover the containment to prevent the accumulation of rainwater. If secondary containment is not protected from rain, provide additional capacity for 4 inches of rain. For known, uncontaminated rainwater that does accumulate, follow the requirements in Attachment (7) of this document for discharge.

e. Keep work sites clean to minimize loss of accumulated debris when it rains. Clean up as necessary to maintain control of potential pollutants. After fuel transfers to or from trucks, drivers should inspect the area and clean up any fuel or oil drips that have occurred. Drivers should remove any fuel from spill containment buckets by draining it back into the tank if possible.


f. Implement additional preventative measures as needed to minimize the potential of any spill event, such as using tarps, drip pans, and proper storage.

2.2 Spill Event A spill is any unpermitted or uncontrolled release of oil, a hazardous substance, or sewage to water, onto the ground, or into ship systems such as bilges, regardless of the amount spilled. This includes any spilling, leaking, pumping, emitting, discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, disposing, or dumping of liquid or solid material not authorized by the contract. There are two types of spill events: emergency and non-emergency.

a. Emergency Spill Event is any spill event meeting one or more of the following criteria is an emergency spill event:

(1) Is a threat to human health or the environment; or

(2) Is more than 10 gallons; or

(3) Is a material not known to you; or

(4) Has entered a waterway, has the immediate potential to enter a waterway, or has entered a storm drain; or

(5) Requires assistance or resources from other departments for mitigation or cleanup; or

(6) Is outside Navy property.

b. Non-emergency Spill Event is an event that does not qualify as an emergency spill event and has the following characteristics: (1) Is a known material or hazardous substance of 10 gallons or less; and

(2) Can be cleaned up by the personnel who discovered the spill, or within the established time frame of the work process; and

(3) Does not pose an immediate threat to human health or the environment; and

(4) Is not released outside of Navy property or into any waterway or inlet (including storm drains, sewer drains, etc.).

2.3 Emergency Spill Response Procedures The following applies in the event of an emergency spill, caused by the contractor during contract performance. The contractor shall:

a. Report an estimated quantity to NAVSTA Everett Fire an Emergency Services and the Environmental Division.

b. Immediately notify Regional Emergency Dispatch by calling 911 on a NAVSTA Everett landline phone, or 425-304-3333 on a cellular phone.

c. Isolate the spill area.

d. If the properties of the spilled material are known, the contractor shall try to stop or contain the spill to prevent it from going into drains or waterways only if it can be done without endangering human health or safety.


e. After isolation and containment, the contractor shall remain upwind until arrival directed otherwise by the NAVSTA Everett Fire an Emergency Services.

f. The contractor shall notify the KO.

g. The contractor is required to provide available technical data (e.g., Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and waste profiles) the contractor possesses on the material spilled to assist NAVSTA Everett Fire and Emergency Services and the Enviromental Division.

h. The contractor shall assist the Environmental Division in the preparation of spill reports if requested.

i. The Environmental Division will provide to the KO relevant data necessary to determine financial impact and liability of the spill and reimbursement for assistance of spill clean-up and disposal services. If the spill is contractor caused, the contractor shall reimburse the Navy for spill response, clean up, and disposal services.

2.4 Non-Emergency Spill Response Procedures The following applies in the event of a non-emergency spill, caused by the contractor during contract performance. The contractor shall:

a. Stop the source of the spill if safe to do so. Contain the spilled material and keep it away from drains or waterways. Block any drains near the spill if there is a chance the spill will reach them.

b. Wear the proper personal protective equipment while cleaning up a spill. Refer to the product’s SDS sheet.

c. Turn waste debris over to the HWAF, see Section 8.



3 OIL SPILL PREVENTION CONTROL AND COUNTERMEASURE (SPCC) 3.1 Requirements The following requirements apply to oil storage and tanks.

a. Applies to oil storage areas. Oil means oil of any kind and in any form, including, but not limited to: fats, oils, or greases of animal, fish, or marine mammal origin; vegetable oils, including oils from seeds, nuts, fruits, or kernels; and other oils and greases, including petroleum, sludge, synthetic oils, mineral oils, oil refuse, or oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil.

b. Tanks and containers (each identified by a unique identification number) brought to NAVSTA Everett by a non-Facilities Services Contract (FSC) contractor, such as a construction contractor, are not included in NAVSTA Everett’s SPCC plan. These tanks are operated by the contractor and are considered to belong to a separate facility (see 40 CFR 112.2). If a non- FSC contractor brings tanks and containers of oil with an aggregate aboveground capacity greater than 1,320 gallons (only containers with a capacity of 55 gallons or greater are counted), then the contractor must provide and implement its own SPCC plan. A contractor implementing its own SPCC plan must also comply with the installation’s temporary environmental controls as provided in the contract.

c. Follow the “General Oil Management” procedures from SOP 1, Attachment (2).

3.2 Inspections The following list of inspections and checklists are required and regularly audited by the Washington State Department of Ecology:

b. For 55-gallon and larger portable containers use “STI SP001 Portable Container Monthly Inspection Checklist”, Attachment (6).

c. Follow the “Routine Inspections” procedures from SOP 2, Attachment (3).

d. Records of all inspections and tests are to be kept on site for three years, and copy to the KO.

3.3 Spill Prevention Equipment The following items discuss secondary containment:

a. Inside secondary containment must have adequate capacity to contain the entire contents of the largest single container that is stored within the containment device.

b. Outside secondary containment must also be of sufficient capacity to contain the entire contents of the container plus sufficient freeboard to contain any rainwater or other drainage that could become entrained within the containment area. If rainwater does accumulate in the containment, then it must be inspected for signs of oil before the rainwater flows over the sides of the containment or before it is manually discharged.

Ensure that an adequate spill kit is available near each drum and tank.


3.4 Oil and Fuel Delivery Follow “Oil and Fuel Delivery – SOP 3”, Attachment (4).


4 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN 4.1 Stormwater Drain Discharge In accordance with the NAVSTA Everett Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), Ref (3), nothing is to be poured or allowed to drain into any stormwater drain system without the express written permission of The Environmental Division, via the EWCC.

7.2 Waste Description Prior to Work The contractor is responsible for identifying all wastes to be generated or produced during performance of their contract at NAVSTA Everett. The following discusses roles and responsibilities for describing the waste in order to get it properly disposed of.

a. Any discarded item or material produced by the project, whether owned by the Contractor or the Government, that is not reusable without reclamation, is classified as waste. The Environmental Division is responsible for determining if the waste is hazardous or not. The contractor shall contact The Environmental Division, via the EWCC, to determine if waste generated during the contract is hazardous or non-regulated.


b. The contractor will describe materials that are expected to be reused, recycled, and disposed during the project. The description should include estimated quantities for each material.

c. The EWCC shall provide the waste description to NAVSTA Everett Solid Waste and Recycling Manager no later than one week before initiating work or immediately for emergent work. The contractor and the EWCC will meet with The Environmental Division and NAVSTA Everett Solid Waste and Recycling to discuss waste management and resolve questions and comments prior to initiating work. For hazardous waste see section IV of this guide.

7.3 Contractor Management of Recyclable Materials Recyclable material may not be placed in solid waste bins. Contact the NAVSTA Everett Solid Waste and Recycle Center regarding management of large volumes of recyclable material. NAVSTA Everett maintains recycling containers on the piers. There are separate containers for clean wood (unpainted, untreated only), metals, cardboard, paper, glass and plastic. Contractors must consult with NAVSTA Everett Solid Waste and Recycle Center before placing any recyclable materials in these bins.

7.4 Contractor Disposal of Solid Waste Each building and each ship berthed at NAVSTA Everett are assigned municipal solid waste bins. Contractors may not place solid waste into these bins. Contractors are to provide their own solid waste containers and make disposal arrangements. Cover and contain all solid waste to prevent it from blowing away and to prevent stormwater contamination. Keep the area around the solid waste collection areas clean and free of debris.

Containers of solid waste shall be emptied no less than once per week. The waste must be contained and covered during transport to prevent littering. At project completion, leave the areas clean.

Contractor is responsible for ensuring that no disposal actions are taken that could be construed as illegal dumping. Waste shall be hauled to a facility permitted to handle that type of waste, and vehicles and haulers used for the transportation of solid waste shall be permitted, licensed or otherwise approved by the applicable County Health District(s). If the contractor is to dispose of waste at the local transfer facility, the completed SWTS will need to be presented to transfer facility personnel before the waste will be accepted.

• SDS or HMIRS PS# of all hazardous materials,

• Lab Analysis – if appropriate,

• Email all information to the HWAF Operator requesting designation. The HWAF Operator will designate the waste and provide the contractor with the proper disposal method.


• If results indicate that the waste is non-regulated follow guidance for Solid Waste. e. Hazardous waste shall not be stored on the pier without written permission from the

Environmental Division, via the KO. It will need to be managed in an approved SAA or Less-than-90-Day Accumulation Area.

8.2 Unanticipated Hazardous Waste If unexpected material that may be dangerous to human health or the environment is encountered anytime during contract performance, the contractor shall stop that portion of work and notify the Environmental Division immediately, via the KO. If the situation is an immediate threat to human health or the environment, call 911 by landline or 425-304-3333 by cell phone.

8.3 Accumulation Areas for Hazardous Waste The following discusses the requirements for accumulation areas containing hazardous waste.

a. Satellite Accumulation Areas (SAA):

(1) Establishment and location of an SAA must be coordinated through The Environmental Division, via the KO, prior to being operated. The contractor AAO or the EWCC will be the site manager. Proposed changes in the location, type of HW, or container size must be coordinated with the Environmental Division, via the KO.

(2) The Environmental Division will provide a SAA sign, the appropriate size and type of container, labeling requirements, and a SOP with the weekly inspection form. The AAO must check the containers to ensure the labeling is correct for the HW to be accumulated,

(3) When 55 gallons of HW, or one quart of acute HW, is accumulated, the container must be marked immediately with the accumulation start date and moved within three days to the HWAF. If the SAA volume limits are exceeded or other SAA criteria are not met, the site may be considered a non-complying less-than-90-day accumulation area subject to numerous violations.

(4) SAA’s located outside of a building will be locked. The AAO will maintain control of the key. If the key is to be given to anyone, a logbook will be maintained noting the date, time, name of person adding waste to the container, and how much was added.

(5) Closure of a SAA requires inspection and approval by The Environmental Division, via the KO.

(6) The assigned AAO or EWCC will conduct weekly SAA Inspections.

b. Less-than-90-day Accumulation Areas. Under special circumstances The Environmental Division may authorize a less-than-90-day Accumulation Area prior to storing HW. The contractors AAO or the EWCC will be the site manager. This area must meet all the requirements of WAC 173-303-200(1). The contractor is responsible for:

(1) Contingency Plan for the less-than-90-day Accumulation Area,

(2) Training Plan,

(3) Communication System with maintenance identified,


(4) Adequate aisle space, 36 inches between container isles,

(5) Secondary containment,

(6) Post a sign at each entrance: “Danger – Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out” legible from 25 feet or more,

(7) Weekly Inspections, and

(8) Recordkeeping: all records and inspections are to be kept for 5 years, copies sent to The Environmental Division, via the KO,

(9) Closure of the less-than-90-day Accumulation Area requires inspection and approval by The Environmental Division, via the KO.

c. Universal Waste: Includes lamps, batteries, and mercury containing devices. All Universal Waste sites need to be registered with The Environmental Division, via the KO. The contractors AAO or the EWCC will be the site manager. The HWAF will pick up universal waste every six months. If your container has not been picked up within six months or is full prior to six months, call the HWAF, via the KO, and request a pick up.

d. Used Oil: All used oil sites need to be registered with the Environmental Division, via the KO. The contractors AAO or the EWCC will be the site manager. Label the containers with “Used Oil”. Ensure secondary containment is in place. Display “No Smoking or Open Flame”, and the Emergency Response Procedures at NAVSTA Everett from the ICP, Attachment (1).

8.4 Common Waste Streams and Special Handling Instructions See Appendix A from the Hazardous Waste Management Plan, Ref. (8).

8.5 Procedure for Turn-In of Hazardous Waste to the HWAF Contractors are required to follow the procedures below for turning in hazardous waste to the HWAF.

a. Screen for reuse.

b. Required Forms:

(1) WIL – Mandatory, signed by the contractor’s AAO and the EWCC. Use the WIL to make a list of all waste streams turned in. Mark each container with the corresponding number on the WIL. Example: If the first item on the WIL is Paint Chips, all the containers, with paint chips, in it will have a “1” on them also put a “1” on WIS, SDS, and or Lab Analysis relating to this waste stream. Call the HWAF for pre-inspect/pick-up scheduling 425-304-5986/89.

(2) WIS – Is used if there are two or more products in one of the waste streams (such as: paints & solvents, oily & greasy rags, fuel & water mix, etc.) or if more information is required than provided for in the WIL. It will be signed by the contractor’s AAO and the EWCC,

(3) SDS, or HMIRS PS# for each item,

(4) Lab Analysis and Chain-of-custody if appropriate.


• All containers will be in good condition, clean, closed, and properly identified.

• Trash is not allowed in any container. c. Pre-inspect:

(a) Contact the HWAF, via the EWCC, for a pre-inspect meeting

(b) Provide:

• WIL – signed by the AAO and EWCC

• WIS if one of the waste streams is a combination of materials – Signed by the AAO and EWCC

• SDS or HMIRS PS#

• Lab Analysis and Chain-of-Custody – if appropriate, (c) When the pre-inspect is complete the HWAF Operator will either take the waste at

that time or arrange a date and time for pick up.

(d) Contractors working on ships shall make arrangements with the ship and the HWAF prior to offload of HW and will provide forklift service to load the truck if necessary.

(5) Empty Hazardous Material Containers. All empty containers will be returned to the HAZMIN Center. If they were not issued by the HAZMIN Center then turn them in to the HWAF. Do not throw them into the trash containers without written approval from the Environmental Division, via the KO. Example: paint cans with dry hardened paint in them, and the paint does not designate as hazardous waste, may be a candidate for the contractors dumpster, or if only a residue of paint is left they may be recyclable. Approval will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

8.6 Lab Analysis for Hazardous Waste Designation a. Contact the Environmental Division, via the KO, prior to sampling to ensure that the

correct analysis is being performed. Depending on the waste stream and how it was generated the required analysis may vary.

b. The contractor will send all laboratory analysis for hazardous waste determination to a lab that is accredited by Washington State Department of Ecology.

c. Examples of required Lab Analysis (at minimum): (1) Sandblast Grit or paint chips – TCLP 8 RCRA Metals (Arsenic, Barium, Cadmium,

Chromium, Lead, Mercury, Selenium, and Silver).

(2) Soil – PAH, PCB, TPH Diesel, and TCLP 8 RCRA Metals.

(3) Waste Water – 8 RCRA Metals, Copper, Nickel, Zinc, Cyanide (all metals are Total), pH, and BTEX. Depending on the results a TCLP analysis may have to be performed on high level metals.

(4) Lagging – TCLP 8 RCRA Metals and Asbestos.

(5) Unknown Waste:

• Step 1- flash point, reactive assessment, pH, 8 RCRA Metals, Copper, Nickel, Zinc (all metals are Total), total pesticides, and total organic compounds.


• Step 2 - (determined by step 1, if needed): TCLP 8 RCRA Metals, TCLP pesticides, and/or TCLP Organics.

(6) For other items contact the Environmental Division, via the KO, for the appropriate analysis to test for.

Note: Since waste streams vary these examples are minimum estimates rather than absolute. Depending on how the waste was generated, results of these samples, or the materials listed on the WIS, additional sampling may be necessary to properly designate waste.

8.7 Requests for Designation and Disposal Method a. Required Forms (include the container number on each item):

(1) WIS – Signed by the contractor’s AAO and the EWCC,

(2) SDS, or HMIRS PS#, if appropriate, and

(3) Lab Analysis and Chain-of-Custody, if appropriate.

b. Submit all information to the Environmental Division, via the KO.

c. The Environmental Division will designate the waste stream, determine the proper disposal method, and reply by email to the KO.


9 OIL AND WASTE WATER TRANSFERS 9.1 Sanitary Sewer Discharge Discharge of waste material to a sanitary sewer drain (e.g., sinks, toilets, & manholes labeled “SEWER”) is prohibited unless prior authorization has been obtained from the Environmental Division, via the EWCC. Non-approved discharges to the sanitary sewer system may result in direct violation of the City of Everett Industrial Waste Discharge Permit #7722-14, Ref. (9), issued to NAVSTA Everett.

9.2 Shipboard Liquid Waste Discharges The contractor shall ensure that all liquid waste generated from cleaning operations that is planned for discharge shall have analysis performed. Results shall be provided to The Environmental Division, via the EWCC, prior to discharge. The proper disposal method will be decided after review of the lab analysis and Environmental will reply with a written decision. Analysis required:

a. Arsenic (T)

b. Cadmium (T)

c. Chromium (T)

d. Copper (T)

e. Cyanide (T)

f. Lead (T)

g. Mercury (T)

h. Nickel (T)

i. Silver (T)

j. Zinc (T)

k. pH

When authorized to discharge to the Oily Wastewater Pretreatment Facility (OWPF), the contractor shall contact the PWD Utilities Supervisor to arrange for transfer. All liquid waste shall be labeled with the laboratory report number for PWD to identify the material being transferred.

For additional information and or support, please contact the Environmental Division, via the EWCC.

9.3 Designation Process In order for the Environmental Division to designate the hazardous waste, please complete the following:

a. Send a completed WIL, Attachment (13), WIS, Attachment (14), and lab analysis to The Environmental Division, via the EWCC, for designation and disposal options.

(1) The container or tank identification number, and


(2) The name of the contractor and ship they are working on.

c. The Environmental Division will designate the waste and reply in writing with the disposal method via the EWCC.

9.4 Oily Waste Water Oily waste water that is not contaminated with surfactants, halogenated solvents, AFFF, hazardous waste, or pH <5 or >10 can be disposed of at the NAVSTA Everett OWPF. Prior to acceptance, the contractor is required to perform pretreatment analytical to determine if the waste meets pretreatment permit limits (Paragraph b of this section). A copy of analytical shall be forwarded to The Environmental Division, via the EWCC, for review prior to discharge to the OWPF. Authorization to discharge shall be verified by The Environmental Division, via the EWCC.

When denied permission to discharge to the OWPF and the waste is not a Hazardous Waste, the contractor shall dispose of liquid waste at a Washington State-approved treatment facility. Labeling and secondary containment requirements apply to containers stored off the ship.

The contractor shall manage all used oil products consistent with appropriate NAVSTA Everett and state regulatory requirements, policy and guidance. If in doubt, contact the Environmental Division via the EWCC.

9.5 Oil and Oily Waste Transfers All transfers of oil and oily wastewater at the piers over water are regulated by the Coast Guard. There will be no hose connections over the water.

For transferring oily waste from the ship to a portable tank on the pier, the contractor shall follow their Coast Guard approved Operations Manual and the personnel involved shall be currently trained Persons-In-Charge (PICs).

Transfer of oily wastewater to the pier risers, to be sent to the OWPF, are addressed in the NAVSTA Everett Operations Manual, SOP 1: General Transfer Procedures, Attachment (15), and SOP 2: Ships Transferring Oily Wastewater to the OWPF, Attachment (16). A copy of this procedure can be obtained by calling the Environmental Division at 425-304-3465. Transfers will require a PIC with qualifications verified by the Environmental Division.

Transfers of OHS over water shall not be considered routine. Oily wastewater, fueling, defueling, and internal fuel transfer evolutions over water should only be performed when operationally necessary. Notify the Environmental Division, Port Operations, and PWD prior to transfer, via the EWCC, at least three days in advance of any OHS transfer. All transfers over water shall be done by qualified personnel that are PIC designated. The contractor PIC must schedule and conduct a Pre-transfer Conference prior to all petroleum transfer operations to ensure that each person involved in the transfer understands the details of the operation and to review the NAVSTA Everett applicable SOPs. This meeting is to ensure that proper spill mitigation and response measures are in place.

OHS transfer operations are generally prohibited between sunset and sunrise. Should a nighttime transfer be required, the contractor must request written permission from the Environmental Division via the EWCC. The Environmental Division will request permission from Commander Navy Region Northwest. Oily waste or petroleum transfers over water shall not be permitted in severe weather conditions. The Environmental Division and Port Operations shall determine if


weather conditions warrant shut down of transfer operations. Contractors will be notified of approval via the EWCC.

9.6 Tanker Truck Offloads at the Oily Wastewater Pretreatment Facility (OWPF) NAVSTA Everett is permitted to discharge to the City of Everett municipal sewer system under an Industrial Waste Discharge Agreement. This is a legally binding permit between the Navy and the City to protect their wastewater treatment process. The following conditions are part of the agreement:

a. All contractor tanker trucks shall check in with the PWD Industrial Wastewater Facility Manager prior to commencement of work.

b. Wastewater from tanker trucks discharged to NAVSTA Everett via sanitary or oily-waste risers are subject to the same screening process mentioned in section VII.c of this instruction.

c. If the contractor suspects the tanker truck contents may contain a hazardous substance, they shall contact the Environmental Division, via the EWCC, to coordinate offload efforts.

9.7 Tanker Truck, Vehicle, and Equipment Fueling Operations a. The Environmental Division shall be notified, via the EWCC, prior to all fueling

operations that require tanker truck dispensing. The Environmental Division representative shall be present prior to fueling evolutions to inspect tanker trucks and participate in pre-transfer conferences with involved personnel.

b. Tank truck drivers must never leave the immediate area and are required to monitor fuel hose connections and meters when transfers are in progress.

c. Fueling operations shall be restricted to designated areas as specified. Provide these designated areas with measures that prevent contamination of stormwater runoff.



10 AIR POLLUTION CONTROL AND REPORTING 10.1 General Operational Requirements Use of equipment with emissions to the air and equipment that contains air pollution control systems may be authorized under existing Puget Sound Clean Air Agency (PSCAA) requirements. Prior to start of work the contractor shall identify the proposed equipment to the Environmental Division, via the EWCC. The Environmental Division, via the EWCC, will determine need for a Notice of Construction/Order of Approval. Identify the make, model, manufacture date, size and brake horsepower for portable (skid or trailer mounted) internal combustion engines.

The contractor is responsible for coordinating submission of the Notice of Construction (NOC) (required by PSCAA) with the Environmental Division, via the EWCC, for equipment not exempted under PSCAA Regulation I, Article 6. The contractor will provide a copy of the NOC application and Order of Approval to The Environmental Division, via the EWCC.

The contractor is responsible for preparing an Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Plan for all air contaminant generation equipment (required by PSCAA Regulation I, Section 5.05(c)) and to maintain the O&M plan and any associated records on site for the duration of the project. Be prepared to provide those records for review, within 20 minutes, when requested by regulatory agencies such as PSCAA, following the procedures specified in Section I.c.5. The O&M plan must contain at a minimum the following elements:

a. Maintaining all equipment in good working order, through following manufacturer’s operation and maintenance recommendations at a minimum.

b. Maintain records of any repairs made, including records of preventive maintenance.

c. Periodic, documented inspections, including but not limited to, evidence of fugitive emissions.

d. Ensure deficiencies are promptly repaired. Secure operation of such equipment if immediate repairs are not feasible.

e. When fugitive emissions are found, determine whether reasonable precautions are being taken to minimize such emissions.

f. Requirements to repair the equipment or shut down operations when reasonable precautions are not being taken to minimize fugitive emissions or unreasonable odors.

g. Any requirements listed as conditions on the Order of Approval for the equipment, if applicable.

h. Records generated to demonstrate that these actions (e.g. inspections/maintenance/ corrective actions) have been completed, including the location, date, time, and name of persons completing the actions. Records may be in the form of a logbook.

The contractor will minimize dust emissions by using Best Available Control Technology (BACT). Dry power sweeping is not permitted. Instead, use vacuuming, wet mopping, wet sweeping, or wet power sweeping (to collect any wastewater for disposal). Employ water sprays or total dust containment (or both) at material transfer points in the area in which visible dust is generated. Ensure water spray does not cause run-on/run-off concerns. Provide covers, wetting of materials or adequate freeboard as necessary to prevent loss of particulate matter in transit.


Provide and position floats or tarps adjacent to and under the work area to contain fugitive emissions for over-water work. Secure grinding, blasting, material transfer and painting during windy periods when other BACTs are not effective.

The contractor will follow opacity (visible emission) requirements of PSCAA Regulation I, Section 9.03.

The abrasive blasting and spray coating operations shall be conducted in an area enclosure ventilated with one or more high efficiency filters. The dust collection system shall be sized to provide at least four air changes per hour in the area enclosure. The filters shall be of the high efficiency pleated fabric design and exhibit greater than 99.4% particulate control efficiency for particles 0.5 microns and larger before exhausting to atmosphere.

The operator shall confine overspray and fugitive dust from coating removal operations by creating an area enclosure using tarping methods (e.g., tarpaulins, plastic barriers, shrink wrap, mobile, physical barriers or similar methods). If the tarping system has rips, tears or gaps that may cause fugitive dust to escape, the operator shall initiate repairs immediately upon discovery, but not later than the next work shift. For outdoor area enclosures, abrasive blasting shall be curtailed during windy periods that have the potential to carry fugitive dust out of the enclosure.

Contractor surface coating and abrasive blasting equipment brought on-site shall be temporarily marked with “Puget Sound Clean Air Agency Order of Approval No. 9211", Attachment (17).

Once during each shift that the portable abrasive blasting or surface coating operations occur, the operator shall determine and record, from installed manometers, if the pressure drop across the blasting unit and area enclosure ventilation filters are in the acceptable range, and shall check for the presence of fugitive dust. If a pressure drop is not within the acceptable range, or if fugitive dust is present, the operator/contractor shall take corrective action as specified in the Operation and Maintenance Plan required by PSCAA Regulation I, Section 5.05(c). All monitoring results and corrective actions taken shall be recorded in a log. This monitoring log shall be transferred to NAVSTA Everett at the end of each project.

Whenever a violation has been detected, the contractor will respond to the Environmental Division, via the KO immediately upon discovery and in writing within two working days. The contractor will provide details of corrective actions taken as specified in the written request.

10.2 Surface Coating Operational Requirements

Surface coating operations shall be performed in accordance with the requirements outlined in Attachment (17).

a. All coatings used on naval vessels, and their components being repaired shore side must comply with the Volatile Organic Hazardous Air Pollutant (VOHAP) content limits of Attachment (17).

e. Only brush and roller applied surface coating can take place outside of the enclosures. Only the acceptable spray coating equipment listed below shall be used, and then they shall be used only in the enclosures. Acceptable Spray Coating Equipment includes High-volume low-pressure (HVLP), low-volume low-pressure (LVLP), electrostatic, or air-assisted airless spray equipment. Airless spray equipment may be used where low viscosity and high solid coatings preclude the use of higher-transfer efficiency spray equipment. As long as the contractor’s equipment complies with this section and NOC #9211, Attachment (17), no additional documentation is necessary.

f. The operator shall use best management practices in its spray coating operation. This includes the collection of organic solvent used for cleanup of equipment into normally closed containers to minimize evaporation to the atmosphere. Keeping containers used for the storage and disposal of organic solvent closed except when these containers are being cleaned or when materials are being added.

10.3 Abrasive Blasting Operational Requirements Abrasive blasting operations shall be performed in accordance with the requirements outlined in Attachment (17).

a. The Environmental Division has stringent NPDES discharge limits for copper and discourages the use of blast media containing more than de-minims amounts of copper.

b. Blast media that does not designate as hazardous waste, is either: recycled and reused on site, or is recycled off-site after use. Economic feasibility will be considered for exceptions to this requirement.

c. Use of silica sand is prohibited in sandblasting. Blast media must contain less than 3% magnesium and be acceptable for recycling into concrete. Products used with the resulting waste not being recyclable to recyclers will be the contractor’s responsibility for disposal, if designation is a solid waste. In the event the contractor is responsible for disposal of solid waste, follow the procedures in Section 8.

d. Acceptable blasting media include non-Silica based blasting media such as steel grit, mineral slag, steel shot, garnet, aluminum oxide, coal slag, copper slag, or organic materials such as walnut shells and plastic media.

e. Control fugitive emissions from loading and unloading abrasive blast media.

f. Collect dust, blast media, paint, and other debris resulting from abrasive blasting operations. Handle debris from the abrasive blasting operations as waste awaiting designation.

g. Vacuum recovery filters shall be employed to reclaim spent abrasive and return the media to the pressure vessel. The filters shall be of the high efficiency pleated fabric design and exhibit greater than 99.4% particulate control efficiency for particles 0.5 microns and larger before exhausting to atmosphere.


h. The abrasive blasting equipment shall not be used for removal of asbestos, asbestos contaminated materials, or PCB contaminated materials.

i. Abrasive blasting that meets the requirements of PSCAA Regulation I, Section 6.03(c) are authorized for use at NAVSTA Everett, as long as an O&M plan exists per Section 10 of this guide.


11 DRINKING WATER, CROSS-CONNECTION CONTROL NAVSTA Everett follows the Washington State Department of Health regulations for public water systems, WAC 246-290, Ref. (11).

11.1 Approved Backflow Preventers Contractors shall ensure that all backflow prevention assemblies used at NAVSTA Everett are models included on the current list of backflow prevention assemblies approved for use in Washington State. Notify NAVSTA Everett Public Works and Environmental, via the EWCC, when any backflow assemblies are installed.

Attachment (2) SPCC Standard Operating Procedure 1

General Oil Management

To reduce the risk of spills, the storage, handling, and transfer of oil (including petroleum oil, mineral oil, cooking oil, waste oil, etc.) must adhere to these procedures:

• Never dispose of oil or oily wastes in sinks or drains that lead to septic systems or the storm sewer system. Never dispose of oil or oily wastes in trash containers.

• Dispense oil from the smallest practical containers. Small containers are usually easier to handle than large containers, and smaller quantities will be released if they do spill.

• Maintain a spill response kit in each area where oil is transferred or drums of oil are stored.

• Never store oil in unlabeled containers.

• When possible, store oil containers in covered, locked areas such as storage lockers. Store oil in buildings with a floor designed to contain spills (impermeable, curbing or berms, etc.).

• Do not store oil containers where leaks will flow to storm drains or waterways. If drums are stored outside, use plastic drum covers to prevent accumulation of rainwater on the drums.

• Do not store oil near high traffic areas. If oil must be stored in areas accessible by cars and trucks, protect the storage area using bollards or concrete traffic barriers.

• Store drums on pallets (containment pallets if outside) and in such a way that they are visible from all sides for inspection. Address any problems, such as rusted or leaking containers, as soon as possible after identification. Maintain areas in a clean and orderly manner.

• Do not overload oil container storage areas. Maintain access for inspection of containers.

• Do not stack containers on top of one another unless the containers are specifically designed to support stacking and will not collapse or fall over.

• Do not pour liquids from large containers such as 55-gallon drums by tilting or lifting the container. Use a spigot, hand pump, or similar device instead.

• Use a drip pan to contain leaks and spills when dispensing oil from a drum or similar container using a spigot or hose.

• Close all containers tightly immediately after use.

• Do not move large containers, such as drums, by rolling them directly on the ground over long distances. Rolling will damage the container. Use a hand truck or forklift.

• Use funnels with auto-close lids on drums used to accumulate waste oil.

• Take immediate actions to stop leaks and clean up drips and spills.

• After severe weather (snow, ice, wind storms) or maintenance (such as painting) that could affect operation of critical components such as vents and valves, inspect these components as soon as the equipment is safely accessible after the event.

• Keep an operating log at each storage area and record inspection results in the log. Include a description of any significant problems found.

• Keep records of inspections for 3 years.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ABOVEGROUND TANKS AND PIPING Daily or after every rainfall: When equipped with external secondary containment, inspect secondary containment for stormwater. Drain stormwater from secondary containment after ensuring that no oil is present. If oil is present, remove the oily water and ensure proper disposal and processing. Close and lock drainage valve when drainage is completed. Maintain records documenting the inspection of stormwater before discharge and the removal and disposal of any oil.

Monthly: Use the Monthly Inspection Checklist provided in Appendix D to conduct and document inspections. Additionally:

• At gasoline and E-85 dispensing sites, ensure that fire-extinguishing equipment is in place and within inspection period.

• Ensure that spill prevention and response equipment is available and adequately stocked. Yearly: Use the Annual Inspection Checklist provided in Appendix D of this SPCC Plan to conduct and document inspections. Additionally:

• Observe each liquid-level sensing device during fueling and compare with the quantity of fuel delivered and the strapping chart to verify that the device is working properly. Record the observation in the log book.

• For the annual inspection, the personnel performing inspections of the liquid-level sensor, the overfill alarm, the overfill shut-off valve, and the interstitial monitor shall be trained to inspect such equipment and familiar with the manufacturer’s recommended inspection procedures.


REQUIREMENTS FOR DRUM STORAGE AND HANDLING AREAS Daily or after every rainfall: When equipped with external secondary containment, inspect secondary containment for stormwater. Drain stormwater from secondary containment after ensuring that no oil is present. If oil is present, remove the oily water and ensure proper disposal and processing. Close and lock drainage valve when drainage is completed. Maintain records documenting the inspection of stormwater before discharge and the removal and disposal of any oil.

Monthly: Use the Portable Container Monthly Checklist provided in Appendix D to conduct and document inspections. Additionally, ensure that:

• Drums are stored off the ground or floor so that for each drum, the entire drum is visible.

• All drums are closed.

• Drums are stored within secondary containment (on drum pallets, within a berm, etc.).

• Containment areas and devices are intact without cracks or breaches.

• Drums are labeled.

• Spill prevention and response equipment is available and adequately stocked. REQUIREMENTS FOR UNDERGROUND TANKS AND PIPING Monthly: Use the Monthly UST System Inspection Checklist provided in Appendix E to conduct and document inspections. Additionally:

• When equipped with an automatic tank gauge (ATG), test for leaks at least every 30 days. Test ATG using manufacturer’s instructions.

• For tanks without an ATG, manually gauge tank at least monthly. Use a stick to measure the level of product over the full range of the tank’s height to the nearest 1/8 inch. Do not bang the stick on the bottom of the tank as this may eventually cause damage. Check the stick to make sure that markings can be read and that the bottom of the stick is not worn.

Keep interstitial monitoring ports clearly marked and secured.

Oil and Fuel Delivery

• Before fueling, make sure that the area around the storage tank fill pipe is clear of equipment and vehicles that could interfere with fuel delivery.

• Do not fuel unless oil absorbent material is readily available prior to fuel delivery.

• Wherever possible, place the tank truck and transfer lines within a secondary containment area, and make sure the secondary containment drainage valve is closed.

• Cover nearby stormwater drains with a spill mat.

• Gauge the receiving tank immediately prior to fuel delivery.

• Calculate and record the quantity of fuel needed to fill the tank to 90% full. Tanks should not be filled beyond 90% full. If necessary, use a tank-strapping chart.

• Do not deliver fuel unless the spill bucket around the tank fill pipe is free of water, fuel, and debris. Clean out the spill bucket if necessary.

• While fueling, the fuel truck driver must never leave the immediate area. The truck driver shall continuously monitor fuel hose connections and the quantity of fuel transferred.

• The fuel truck driver must drain fuel hoses into the tank prior to disconnecting them from the fill pipe. Disconnect hoses carefully so that any remaining fuel will be contained.

• After fuel delivery is complete, the fuel truck driver must clean up any oil drips or spills that occurred during fueling. Promptly remove any spilled fuel from the spill containment area.

• Dispose of any oily materials and debris in accordance with the Hazardous Waste Management Plan.

• Use gravity drop to deliver fuel to USTs. UST drop-tube overfill prevention valves are not designed for pressurized fill.

ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES FOR DELIVERY BY COMMERCIAL FUEL VENDORS

• Report to management and contracting officials all commercial fuel vendors that do not to follow standard safety and spill prevention procedures.

• If a fuel vendor causes an oil spill that requires emergency response, the fuel vendor should activate his or her company’s spill response plan. Naval Station Everett personnel will also initiate spill response actions for all spills.

• A Naval Station Everett representative shall observe all fuel deliveries made by commercial vendors from start to finish. This representative must (1) prevent the delivery of fuel if conditions appear to be unsafe and (2) be familiar with oil spill response procedures. The representative may be uniformed military, civil service, or a BOSC employee.


ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES FOR FUEL TRANSFERS AT LOADING RACKS

• Inspect flanges, joints, and connections before and during transfer. Tighten, adjust, or replace as necessary to eliminate leaks.

• Check the pumping circuit and verify the proper alignment of valves.

• Secure the tank truck with parking brakes and physical barriers such as wheel chocks.

Attachment (8) Table 4-1: Stormwater Control Measures/Best Management Practices

BMP Number BMP Title BMP Note

C-1 Eliminate and Minimize Exposure (Core BMPs)

Where practicable, industrial materials and activities will be protected by a storm resistant shelter to prevent exposure to rain, show, snowmelt, or runoff. Pay particular attention to minimizing exposure from dust/debris causing activities and non-ferrous (copper, aluminum, zinc, etc.) metals storage. A. Do not conduct outdoor vehicle, equipment or material

washing activities that will drain into the storm sewer. Certain exceptions using only potable water are authorized in the SWPPP.

B. All outdoor trash and recycling containers shall be

covered to minimize rainfall exposure. Store waste and recycling materials in their respective bins at appropriate locations;

C. Dispose of obsolete equipment and unused metal stock. D. Cover metal stock stored outside. E. Use grading, berming, or curbing to prevent runoff of

contaminated flows and divert run-on away from these areas. Provide valves for outlet pipes in all containment areas.

F. Locate materials, equipment, and activities so that leaks

are contained in existing containment and diversion systems (confine the storage of leaky or leak-prone vehicles and equipment awaiting maintenance to protected areas).

G. Clean up spills and leaks promptly using dry methods

(e.g., absorbents) to prevent the discharge of pollutants. H. Use drip pans and absorbents under or around leaky

vehicles and equipment or store indoors where feasible. I. Use spill/overflow protection equipment and store in

immediate area where spills could occur. J. Drain fluids from equipment and vehicles prior to on-site

storage or disposal. K. Perform all washing operations indoors, under cover, or in

bermed areas that prevent runoff and run-on and also that capture any overspray.

L. Ensure that all wash water drains to a proper collection

system (i.e., not the stormwater drainage system).

M. Employ proper handling procedures to transport materials and waste.

N. Do not pour liquid wastes into storm drains.

Minimizing exposure of pollutants to stormwater is a core BMP required under the MSGP 2008.



C-2 Good Housekeeping (Core BMP)

Keep all exposed areas of NAVSTA Everett in a clean, orderly manner where such exposed areas could contribute pollutants to stormwater discharges. A. Recommended measures include: frequent sweeping;

covering trenches and catch basins with rubber mats if grinding, sandblasting or machine work is conducted in the vicinity of trenchs or catch basins; and minimizing storage of hazardous materials near trenches or catch basins.

B. Conduct all maintenance work inside to the maximum extent practicable. If work is conducted outside vacuum sweep all particulates.

The MSGP 2008 requires implementation of good housekeeping practices.

C-3 Preventative Maintenance (Core BMP)

The NAVSTA Everett preventive maintenance program will include timely inspection and maintenance of stormwater management devices (e.g. cleaning oil/water separators, catch basins) as well as inspection, testing, maintaining, and repairing facility equipment and systems to avoid breakdowns or failures that may result in discharge of pollutants to surface waters.

Preventative maintenance is one of the core BMPs required under the MSGP 2008. Maintenance of the stormwater conveyance system and oil/water separators is conducted by NAVSTA Everett Public Works. Maintenance records are kept in the Public Works Office files.



C-4 Spill Prevention and Response Procedures (Core BMP)

Applicable personnel shall be trained in spill response. Adequate spill response supplies will be stationed near potential spill locations. No significant actions with regard to spill prevention and response procedures are included or necessary in this plan. The SWPPP does, however, require that regular (quarterly and annual) inspections include consideration of spill potential. Spill response numbers are included in SWPPP Section 3.2. The SPCC Plan also includes evaluations and recommended actions for oil storage facilities at NAVSTA Everett where spills may have a negative impact on the environment.

Spill prevention and response measures are required as a core BMP under the MSGP 2008. Spill prevention and response procedures are thoroughly addressed in NAVSTA Everett SPCC Plan and ICP (see Appendix Q). This SPCC Plan applies to oil storage and management. Oil means oil of any kind and in any form, including, but not limited to: fats, oils, or greases of animal, fish, or marine mammal origin; vegetable oils, including oils from seeds, nuts, fruits, or kernels; and other oils and greases, including petroleum, fuel oil, sludge, synthetic oils, mineral oils, oil refuse, or oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil.

At NAVSTA Everett, the SPCC plan applies to:

Each aboveground container (for example, a tank or a drum) with an oil storage capacity of 55 gallons or greater that is not associated with the transfer to or from vessels or wastewater treatment. The plan is applicable to operational equipment, such as transformers, for each piece of equipment with an oil storage capacity of 55 gallons or greater.

USTs storing heating oil. C-5 Erosion and

Sedimentation Controls (Core BMP)

The combination of high tides, heavy winds, and heavy rainfall, that may occur during a storm event, could result in more than “natural” erosion. Practices for controlling erosion from new construction are included in Appendix D.

The MSGP 2008 requires that the SWPPP identify areas of the facility that have the potential for erosion and implement BMPs to control that erosion.



C-6 Management of Runoff (Core BMP)

Permanent structural runoff management measures in use at NAVSTA Everett include oil/water separators and catch basins. Each outfall (A, B, C, and D) have oil/water separators.

The MSGP 2008 requires that stormwater runoff management practices such as permanent structural BMPs be described in the SWPPP.

C-7 Salt Storage Piles (Core BMP)

If salt is used at NAVSTA Everett for ice control it will be stored to minimize contact with stormwater. Store bulk road deicing materials in a covered area or use tarps to prevent exposure to rainfall. Store sidewalk deicing material in closed containers. Consider alternatives to traditional salt such as calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, and calcium magnesium acetate.

Winter Road and Sidewalk Safety (Salt and Sand). Control measures including covering piles must be described and implemented through the SWPPP.

C-8 Sector Specific Non-numeric Effluent Limits.

See Sector Specific BMPs in SWPPP, Table 4-1.

C-9 Employee Training (Core BMP)

NAVSTA Everett will train employees that work in areas where industrial materials or activities are exposed to stormwater, and employees that are responsible for implementing activities identified in the SWPPP (e.g., inspectors, maintenance people) as necessary. Training should focus on the components and goals of the SWPPP. Training should be conducted on an annual basis. Appendix I contains guidance to help develop the training. Training is conducted annually in-person at the annual Environmental Work Center Coordinator training. Other, site specific, training may be conducted for specific areas or work processes of concern as needed. Other training may be formal or relayed informally through meetings, phone calls, e-mails, posters, pamphlets, or intranet.

Employee training is required as a core BMP under the MSGP 2008.

C-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges.

See BMPs Non-SW-1through 7. Permitees must eliminate non-stormwater discharges not authorized by an NPDES permit. See SWPPP 3.3.1 for a list of non-stormwater discharges authorized by this permit.

C-11 Waste, Garbage and Floatable Debris.

See C-1, C-2, P-1 and Q-1 for good housekeeping BMPs. This is the primary means that is used by NAVSTA Everett to prevent waste, garbage, and floatable debris from entering receiving waters.

Permitees must ensure that waste, garbage, and floatable debris are not discharged to receiving waters by keeping exposed areas free of such materials or by intercepting them before they are discharged.

C-12 Dust Generation and Vehicle Tracking of Industrial Materials.

Minimize generation of dust. Perform off-site tracking of raw, final, or waste materials.



C-13 Fueling Operations

A. Fueling operations must be monitored to ensure the minimization of spillage

B. Lock fuel tanks when not in use. C. Protect transfer pipes from being damaged by vehicles.

The transfer of fuels has a high potential for spills.

Attachment (15) NAVSTA Everett Operations Manual Standard Operation Procedure 1

General Transfer Procedures Person In Charge (PIC) • No person may connect or disconnect a hose, top off a tank, or engage in any other critical

procedure during the transfer operation unless the PIC supervises that procedure. • No person may start the flow of oil unless instructed to do so by the PIC. • No person may transfer compensating ballast water or oily wastewater between a vessel and

Naval Station (NAVSTA) Everett or to the compensating ballast-water barge unless a PIC supervises the transfer.

Transfer Preparation The following conditions must be satisfied before compensating ballast water or oily wastewater can be transferred: • Vessel moorings shall be strong enough to hold during all expected conditions of surge,

current, and weather; and vessel moorings are long enough to allow for changes in draft, drift, and tide.

• A method of draining the hose after transfer shall be established before making final connections. When transferring to the pier, the normal procedure is to disconnect the hose from the vessel, connect a pressurized water line to the hose, and flush the hose into the pier riser for several minutes. When transferring vessel to vessel, the hose can be drained by gravity from the higher to the lower vessel. If required, provisions for pressurized air and/or water must be made before transfer begins.

• All transfer system components shall be properly aligned. • All transfer piping connections not in use shall be securely shut off with plugs, caps, or blank

flanges. All unconnected hose ends shall be blanked in a similar manner. • Bolts shall have at least one thread showing past the nut and no worn or nicked threads,

rounded heads, or visible corrosion. Gasket material shall be suitable for a leak free seal. • Permanent flange connections must have a bolt in each hole. As for temporary connections,

each nut and bolt must be correctly sized and sufficiently tightened in a uniform matter to distribute the load and ensure a leak free seal.

• Temporary joints shall have bolts in every hole and may use flat non-metallic gaskets. Temporary joints are those required to be broken to connect and disconnect hoses to accomplish the product transfer operation.

• Threaded connectors with damaged threads shall not be used. • "No smoking, hot work, or open flame within 50 feet" signs shall be posted at the pier

transfer point. • A minimum of one fire extinguisher and one oil spill kit will be readily available at each

transfer location.


• Prior to every transfer (including oily wastewater and compensating ballast water), the PIC(s) and shipboard person responsible for the transfer must conduct a pre-transfer conference to ensure that each person involved in the transfer understands the details of the transfer operation. A Declaration of Inspection (DOI) will be completed and signed by the PIC(s) and the shipboard person responsible for the transfer. A sample.

Transfer • Start engine. Begin pumping when OWPF is ready. Start at less than half the normal

operating pressure (confirm pump pressure). • Check connections for leaks. • Build up pressure slowly as requested by receiving transfer operator. • If a full barge is to be completely off loaded, begin by pumping approximately 2 feet out of

each tank. Normally, barge is emptied from bow to stern because the stripping valves are located in the aft portion of the tanks.

• If the barge is to be partially off loaded, select discharge tanks to keep the barge level. • As a tank approaches empty, open and regulate the stripping valve to empty the tank. • Monitor tank gauges every 15 minutes. • Sound tanks every 30 minutes. • Make log entries for level, pressure, and leak checks. After Transfer • Loosen cam lock at pier riser leaving hose attached to riser so hose will drain into barge. • Disconnect hose from pier riser and fasten end flange. • Close all valves, tank hatch covers, and gauging pipe caps. • Check main cargo pump engine oil, cooling water, fuel supply tank, and reserve lube oil. • Refill fuel tank if less than half-full. • Replenish reserve lube oil if less than 3 gallons. • Test battery conditions, running lights, etc. Start engine and run for a few minutes to test. • Make log entries and clean up.


Attachment (16) NAVSTA Everett Operations Manual Standard Operating Procedure 2

Ships Transferring Oily Wastewater to the Oily Wastewater Pretreatment Facility Carry out and ensure compliance with SOP 1, General Transfer Procedures. Preparing for Transfer • Ensure that the berm surrounding the pier riser is free of water. • Connect transfer hose to pier riser. • Ship’s personnel connect transfer hose to ship using the hose end with the leak-free valve. • PIC ensures that transfer hose is properly connected at each end. • Open the pier riser valve. Transfer • Ship to start pumping at less than half the normal operating pressure. • Check connections for leaks. • Build up pressure slowly. • During temporary halts in the transfer (lunch, for example), stop pumping and close the

valves at the riser and at the ship’s header after which the Person In Charge may leave the area.

Completing Transfer • Ship’s personnel close leak-free valve and disconnect hose from ship. • Connect pressurized water supply to leak-free valve, open valve, and flush hose into pier

riser. • Close leak-free valve, disconnect water, and fasten end flange. • Disconnect hose from pier riser and fasten end flange.
