I. Introduction This Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan has been prepared to meet the requirements of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) which has published guidelines in the Federal Register Volume 28, No. 237, dated 11 December 1973, amended and codified under 40 CFR Part 112 Oil Pollution Prevention. In general, these regulations apply to facilities that could possibly discharge oil into navigable waters. Additionally, petroleum storage facilities in the State of Tennessee are subject to the statutes of Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation section 1200-1-15. In accordance with the requirements of the Federal regulations, this plan must meet State regulation requirements. Throughout this document, Petroleum/Oils/Lubricants (POL) will refer to the low viscosity liquids subject to Federal and/or State of Tennessee regulations. As defined in 40 CFR Part 112, "Oil" means oil of any kind or in any form, including, but not limited to petroleum, fuel oil, sludge, oil refuse, and oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil. The term "Navigable Waters" means all navigable waters of the United States, as defined in Section 502(7) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), and includes all navigable waters of the United States, as defined in judicial decisions prior to passage of the 1972 amendments to the FWPCA, and tributaries of such waters; interstate waters, intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams which are utilized by interstate travelers for recreational or other purposes; and intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams from which fish or shellfish are taken and sold in interstate commerce. As required under 40 CFR Part 112.4, whenever a facility discharges more than 1,000 gallons of oil or discharges oil in harmful quantities as defined in 40 CFR Part 110 in two spill events within any twelve month period, into or upon the navigable waters of the United States or adjoining shorelines in a single spill event, the operator shall submit a report to the US EPA


Regional Administrator. After review of the SPCC Plan and the submitted report, the US EPA Regional Administrator may require the owner/operator of the facility to amend the SPCC Plan. A copy of this SPCC Plan shall be maintained at the Plant Operations office at the facility. Upon request, the facility shall make the plan available to the US EPA Regional Administrator for onsite review during normal business hours. Management approval of this SPCC Plan and certification by a Registered Professional Engineer will be exhibited by endorsement signatures on the cover page of this plan.

II. Definitions Aboveground Storage Tank (AST): A tank that is wholly aboveground or with any portion of the tank visible at the surface. Partially buried, bunkered, or mounded tanks are all considered to be aboveground tanks as are tanks in subterranean vaults. Barrel: Forty-two United States gallons at sixty degrees Fahrenheit. Berm: Dirt, concrete, or other constructed embankment that is commonly employed for secondary containment of drainage diversion purposes at oil storage or related operations. Boom: A temporary floating barrier used to contain an oil spill. Bulk Storage Tank: Any container used to store oil. Containment of Diversionary Structure: Structure or equipment that prevents oil discharges from reaching navigable water. Containment of diversionary structures include dikes, berms, retaining walls, curbing, culverting, weirs, booms, spill diversion ponds, retention ponds, sorbent materials, and sumps. Dike: An embankment or wall that contains drainage water or spilled oil inside the walled area. Discharge: Any spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, or dumping. Level Gauges and Alarms: any engineering control that indicates the level of liquid inside the tank and that is installed on tanks to prevent overfilling of the tank. Navigable Waters: Any waterway or tributary of a waterway within the United States that will ultimately end up in public waters such as a river, stream, lake, reservoir, bay, gulf, sea or ocean, either within or adjacent to the United States. Oil: Oil of any kind or in any form including, but not limited to, petroleum and petroleum-refined products, fuel oil, sludge, oil refuse, and oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil. Secondary Containment: Localized containment structure surrounding a potential source of oil discharge. Sheen: An iridescent appearance on the surface of water. Sludge: An aggregate of oil or oil plus other matter of any kind in any form other than dredged spoil having a combined specific gravity equivalent or greater to water. Sorbent: An aggregate of oil or oil plus other matter of any kind in any form other than dredged soil having a combined specific gravity equivalent or greater to water. Specific Gravity: The ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water.


III. SPCC Plan Review - 40 CFR 112.5 The SPCC Plan will be reviewed and amended, if necessary, whenever: applicable regulations are revised; the plan fails in an emergency; the facility changes in its design, construction, operation, maintenance, or other circumstances in a way that materially increases the potential for fires, explosions, or releases of oil, or changes the response necessary in an emergency; the list of emergency coordinators changes; or the list of emergency equipment changes. At a minimum, the owner is required to review this plan every three years. All amendments to this SPCC Plan will be specified, or referred to, on the SPCC Plan Revisions form, provided below.

V. Past Spill History - 40 CFR 112.7(a) Table 4, below, identifies Fisk University’s history of spills, corrective actions taken, and plans for preventing recurrence. Table 4: Past Spill History Written Description of Spill Corrective Actions Taken Plan for Preventing Recurrence

VI. Demonstration of Practicability - 40 CFR 112. 7( d) When it is determined that the installation of structures or equipment listed in 112.7(c) to prevent discharged oil from reaching the navigable waters is not practicable from the facility, the owner or operator should clearly demonstrate such impracticability by providing the following: • A strong oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of 40 CFR Part 109. • A written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials required to expeditiously control and remove any harmful quantity of oil discharged. Fisk Facilities Operations Management has determined that the use of oil storage vessels with integral secondary containment, where necessary, applicable training and inspection procedures, and readily available equipment to prevent discharge of oil from reaching navigable waters is practical and effective at this facility. VII. Facility Drainage - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(1) The Fisk Campus facility drainage system consists of curb and gutters with drop inlets to a combination sewer/storm drainage system. This system operated by the Metropolitan Nashville Water Authority feeds into a water treatment plant and is processed before discharge into the Cumberland River. VIII. Bulk Storage Tanks - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(2)

Each of the bulk oil storage tanks and oil-containing equipment tanks is of acceptable construction and is compatible with the petroleum, oil or, lubricants they contain and the conditions of design use or storage (pressure and temperature). Several buildings on the Fisk campus have hydraulic passenger elevators. Reservoirs associated with hydraulic elevators are not considered bulk storage containers because they are “in use.” Therefore, these hydraulic reservoirs are exempt from secondary containment requirements. Hydraulic elevator reservoirs are located in self contained rooms separate from the elevator shaft. A list of these reservoirs and their capacity are contained in Table 2. These oil reservoirs do not have the potential to flow to floor drains. Several transformers are located throughout the Fisk campus. As stated in 40 CFR 112.1(b), transformers are not considered bulk oil storage containers. Rather they are considered equipment which contains oil for operational purposes. Subsequently, this equipment does not require secondary containment. A list of transformers and their capacities are contained in Table 3.


IX. Facility Transfer Operations, Pumping, and In-Plant Processes 40 CFR 112.7(e)(3) • All petroleum, oil or, lubricant transfer operations occur above ground and in plain sight. • All facility transfer operations occur during daylight hours, or under sufficient illumination to be capable of observing any spillage. • At least one trained, facility individual is present and observes the transfer of petroleum, oil or, lubricants during the entire transfer process. • A facility employee visually tracks all transfers of petroleum, oil or, lubricants to and from a tank to observe any spillage. • Where oil transfer is to occur near a storm drain drop inlet, the trained facility individual is present during product transfer shall cover the storm drain drop inlet with a close sealing, impermeable mat. Following successful transfer of product, the mat seal shall be removed. X. Facility Tank Truck Loading/Unloading - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(4) Not applicable to this facility. XI. Oil Production Facilities (Onshore) - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(5) Not applicable to this facility. XII. Oil Drilling and Work over Facilities (Onshore) - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(6) Not applicable to this facility. XIII. Oil Drilling, Production, or Work over Facilities (Offshore) 40 CFR 112.7(e)(7) Not applicable to this facility. XIV. Inspection and Records - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(8) Required inspections should be in accordance with written procedures developed for the facility by the owner or operator. These written procedures and a record of the inspections, signed by the appropriate manager, should be made a part of the SPCC Plan and maintained for a period of three years. The forms in Appendix A of this SPCC Plan are used to record these periodic inspections. Completed forms are filed at the Plant Operations main office. XV. Personnel, Training, and Spill Prevention Procedures 40 CFR 112.7(e)(10) Upon discovery or determination of an imminent or actual spill/release, refer to Appendix B of this SPCC plan for specific Spill Response Activities. Fisk Facilities Operations Management periodically instructs maintenance personnel in the operation and maintenance of oil pollution prevention equipment and in the basics of the facility's Emergency Procedures Manual as well as this SPCC plan. Procedures, responsibilities and the chain of command regarding the reporting of a spill at the Fisk campus are documented in this SPCC Plan Section XX Appendix B. Fisk University has designated the Director of Maintenance Operations as Emergency Coordinator, responsible for oil pollution prevention. The Emergency Coordinator can be contacted directly at (615) 456-9015 or, reached through the 24-hour Campus Security Dispatcher at (615) 329-8777. In the absence of the Primary Emergency Coordinator, Dr. Robert Wingfield, is designated the 1st Backup Emergency Coordinator. The 1st Backup Emergency Coordinator can be contacted directly at (615) 329-8626,(615) 439-0274 or reached through the 24-hour Office of Public Safety Dispatcher at (615) 329-8777.

XVII. Containment, Security, Spill Volumes and Rates - 40 CFR 112.7(b) & (c) Where experience indicates a reasonable potential for equipment failure (such as tank overflow, rupture, or leakage), this plan includes a prediction of the direction, rate of flow, and total quantity of oil which could be discharged from the facility as a result of each major type of failure. Flow diagrams are provided in section, XVIII Maps and Diagrams, of this SPCC Plan. a. Containment and Diversionary Structure – 40 CFR 112.7(c) The following tables list each tank individually, the total quantity of materials stored within each tank, the security measure in place to protect tanks form vandalism, and the potential spill volumes and rates of each tank. b. Security - 40 CFR 112.7(e)(9) General security measures for the facility as a whole and for each individual oil storage location are listed below. For the Fisk University as a whole, security is the full-time responsibility of Campus Security. Campus Security maintains around the clock vigil of the campus, using squad cars, bicycles, and walking patrolmen. The campus is well lit for illumination after dark. Area lighting is located in such positions as to illuminate the storage tank areas. Consideration was given to discovering spills at night and discouraging pilferage and possible sabotage. c. Potential Spill Volumes and Rates – 112.7 (b) Appropriate containment and/or diversionary structures, equipment, and supplies to prevent discharged oil from reaching a navigable watercourse are provided herein. General measures for containment and diversionary structures for the facility as a whole and for individual storage tank locations are listed below. Where a reasonable potential exists for discharge of oil to navigable waters or adjoining shorelines, bulk fuel storage tank installations are constructed with a secondary means of containment for the entire contents of the largest single tank plus sufficient freeboard to allow for precipitation. For the main campus facility as a whole, Facilities Management maintains individual caches of spill response equipment and supplies to divert and contain releases of POLs. Caches are typically stored within labeled plastic half-barrels with lids and contain loose absorbent, absorbent sheets, absorbent pillows, absorbent booms, scoops, and gloves. Caches are maintained at the Main Chiller Plant and in the Basement storage area located in Spence Hall. Absorbent booms or other barriers are also available from the local emergency cleanup contractor.

XX. Appendix B: Spill/Release Response Activities

a. General US EPA regulations define a spill as a discharge of oil into, or upon, the navigable waters of the United States or adjoining shorelines, in harmful quantities. Harmful quantities are defined at 40 CFR 110.00 as a discharge that violates applicable water quality standards or causes a sheen upon, or discoloration of, the surface of the water of the adjoining shorelines. Contaminated ground water may also have the potential to seep, leach, or flow into navigable waters which would be included in this definition. Since most storm sewers eventually discharge into a navigable waterway, they fall under the definition of a “navigable waterway”. The goal of these emergency procedures is to eliminate the potential for oil spills to reach any drains associated with the sewer/storm system on campus. These procedures are intended to minimize human exposure and environmental impacts in the unlikely event a spill should occur.

b. Discovery of a Release Fisk University has designated the Director of Maintenance Operations as Emergency Coordinator, responsible for oil pollution prevention. The Emergency Coordinator can be contacted directly at (615) 456-9015 or, reached through the 24-hour Campus Security Dispatcher at (615) 329-8777. In the absence of the Primary Emergency Coordinator, Dr. Robert Wingfield, is designated the 1st Backup Emergency Coordinator. The 1st Backup Emergency Coordinator can be contacted directly at (615) 329-8626, (615) 439-0274 or reached through the 24-hour Office of Public Safety Dispatcher at (615) 329-8777. In the absence of the Primary and 1st Backup Emergency Coordinators, the Director of Public Safety, is designated the 2nd Backup Emergency Coordinator. The 2nd Backup Emergency Coordinator can be contacted directly at (615) 333-3420 or reached through the 24-hour Office of Public Safety Dispatcher at (615) 329-8777. The Emergency Coordinator, or his designated backup replacement, shall have the vested authority necessary to commit the manpower, equipment, and materials necessary to fully implement this plan. Any person discovering a release of liquid product from a container, tank, vehicle or other operating equipment should notify the Facility Maintenance Manager or Campus Security. They should also initiate certain countermeasures immediately, including:

i. Extinguish any sources of ignition. The material must be identified as nonflammable and noncombustible, until such time as this is determined, all potential sources of ignition must be removed. Do not turn light switches on or, off. Extinguish any flames supporting pilot lights for natural gas equipment. Any vehicles in the area must be turned off. Avoid sparks and any movement that may create static electricity.

ii. Assure that no danger to human health exists. Attempt to stop the release at its

source. Use simple procedures to turn valves, plugging leaks, turning electrical disconnects to equipment off, etc., may be attempted by the discoverer if there are no health or safety hazards and there is a reasonable certainty of the origin of the leak.


iii. Contain the material released following proper safety procedures. The spill should be contained with absorbent materials building dikes, surrounding with absorbent booms, pads, soils, or, almost anything to prevent further spread of the material. Place drain covers over any nearby storm or sewer drain that may be impacted by the spill.

iv. Recover or cleanup the material spilled. Material recovered from the spill must be

discarded as waste. Liquids absorbed by solid materials (speedy dry, absorbent pads ect.,) shall be shoveled into open top drums. Segregate speedy dry from absorbent pads for proper disposal. When drums are filled after a cleanup, the drum lids shall be secured. All drums shall then be labeled identifying the contents, the date of the spill/cleanup, and the site name with location. Be aware that combining non-compatible materials can cause potentially dangerous chemical and/or physical reactions or may severely limit disposal options. Check compatibility information on MSDS sheets before combining any dissimilar materials.

v. Decontaminate tools and equipment used in cleanup. Even if dedicated to cleanup

efforts, tools and equipment that have been used must be decontaminated before replacing them in the spill control kit.

vi. Spill control kits will be replenished and returned to their original location for future

use.

c. Generators: At this time there are no Generators on Fisk University Campus that burn fossil fuels.

d. Transformers: Most transformers containing oil are pole mounted or are located on concrete pads outside of buildings, these units are owned and maintained by Nashville Electric Service (NES). Crosthwaite Hall, Jubilee Hall and Shane Hall each have an inside transformer vault containing three, single floor mounted transformers. These units are owned and maintained by Nashville Electric Service (NES). In the unlikely event of a leak, oil will be contained within the vault of these transformers. If the vault is compromised, any oil will spill to the ground around these units.

i. Maintenance personnel will contain the spill using absorbent booms or speedy dry to prevent migration of the product to storm drains where appropriate.

ii. NES will be contacted to effect cleanup and repairs. Their numbers are contained in

the Emergency Procedures Manual.

iii. The power transformer that is located behind the Fisk University Library is part of the old power distribution network for Fisk University. This transformer is the property of Fisk University who has primary responsibility for addressing any issues with the discharge of fluid from this transformer.

All pad or floor mounted transformers located with in the boundary’s of Fisk University that are owned by Fisk University or an out side vendor are currently inspected once a month, for any indication of leaking fluids, this is documented through the universities work order system.


e. Elevators: Elevators experiencing failure of the tank, piping, or associated fittings, will typically shut down on alarm due to low fluid levels. Any person noticing hydraulic fluid coming out from under the door of an elevator machine room should immediately notify Plant Operations or Campus Security who will in turn notify Plant Operations and/or our contracted service vendor (Nashville Machine). Ignition of hydraulic fluid has a very low probability of occurrence, and will not be of major concern with this type spill.

i. Containment of product will be accomplished by retrieving an absorbent boom from the nearest spill kit and placing it across the door opening of the machine room to prevent additional hydraulic fluid from flowing out of the room along with securing any floor drains that are located with in the equipment room space.

ii. Plant Operations or Campus Security will remove the elevator from service by

disconnecting electrical power to the affected elevator. Signs will be posted on all floors at each elevator door notifying occupants that the elevator is “Out of Service”.

iii. Plant Operations or the Office of Public Safety will notify the present service

company about the spill so they can mobilize the necessary man power or there designated clean up company to clean up the spill and remove and discard all soiled materials as per regulations. Maintenance personnel will contain the leaked hydraulic fluid using speedy dry and absorbent pads until the service company or there clean up crew is on site. Material recovered from the spill must be discarded as waste. Liquids absorbed by solid materials (speedy dry, absorbent pads etc ) shall be shoveled into open top drums. Segregate speedy dry from absorbent pads for proper disposal. When drums are filled after a cleanup, the drum lids shall be secured. All drums shall then be labeled identifying the contents, the date of the spill/cleanup, and the site name with location.

All elevator storage tanks located with in the boundary’s of Fisk University that are owned by Fisk University or an out side vendor are currently inspected once a month for any indication of leaking fluids, this is documented through the universities work order system.


f. Waste Disposal: Waste must be disposed of properly after any spills have been absorbed and cleaned up. A disposal determination will be made by Maintenance Operations. Any free product will be containerized in waste cans or 55-gallon drums with proper labeling as defined under Section b. (iv) above. Arrangements shall then be made by Maintenance Operations for proper pickup and disposal of all waste products derived from the spill.

g. Plan Review: A complete review of the effectiveness of this plan and procedures will be made after the conclusion of any spill events. The plan and procedures will then be modified or changed accordingly if necessary. If it is determined the plan was effective during the event, and any breakdown was the result of employee knowledge, then training procedures will be reviewed and updated as necessary. This plan will be reviewed yearly prior to the end of the University’s fiscal year. Before which time a live drill or tabletop exercise will be under taken by all relevant staff members for effectiveness of the SPCC plan.
