6. Repair and Maintenance <br /> a. Engines and gearboxes will be inspected and serviced as needed during the offseason to <br /> eliminate leaking seals, fuel lines, and gaskets. Leaks that develop during operation are <br /> contained by drip pans, sorbents, or other acceptable means,until company <br /> maintenance personnel repair the problem.In cases where continued operation may <br /> cause uncontainable fluid losses,plant operations will cease until the problem is <br /> corrected. <br /> b. Plant employees are instructed in proper lubrication procedures for plant equipment. <br /> Manufacturers specifications are followed to eliminate over-fills of gearbox and <br /> crankcases. Greasing of bearings and wear surfaces is carefully monitored to eliminate <br /> unnecessary grease contact with the ground. Overflow from bearings is collected and <br /> disposed of with contaminated sorbent material. <br /> c. Routine engine oil changes will be done with adequate sorbent material to provide <br /> for drips and spills associated with maintenance operation. Waste oil will be stored <br /> in spill proof containers in the service trailer until picked up for off-site disposal. <br /> d. Any leaks that develop during the course of operation may,at the operator's <br /> discretion,be contained with drip pans or petroleum sorbent material,as long as plant <br /> operation ceases prior to a storm event and containment vessels are cleaned and free <br /> of petroleum to prevent contact with storm water. <br /> e. Repair and maintenance procedures will be conducted in the service trailer or outside <br /> with adequate containment for degreasing and cleaning.Petroleum sorbent material <br /> will be available as needed to supplement containment. <br /> 7. Use of Available Resources <br /> a. Housekeeping supplies,including drip pans, are kept on inventory in the repair trailer <br /> at all times.All plant personnel have access to materials and are instructed in their use. <br /> b. All plant personnel are available to respond to petroleum spills as needed. <br /> Additional response personnel may be obtained from field crews working <br /> adjacent to the plant if needed. <br /> c. If necessary,plant loader may be used to construct temporary berms or place <br /> aggregates for absorbing free flowing liquids.Loaders can be used for backfilling <br /> and to remove impacted soils or aggregates. <br /> d. Plant Foreman,Job Superintendent or other responsible company officials may obtain, <br /> mobilize, and utilize any additional resources deemed necessary to mitigate the effects <br /> of a petroleum release. This may involve subcontractors,additional equipment, or <br /> additional personnel as needed. <br />
