<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />6. Repair and Maintenance <br /> <br />a. Engines and gearboxes will be inspected and serviced as needed during the off- <br />season to eliminate leaking seals, fuel lines, and gaskets. Leaks that develop <br />during operation are contained by drip pans, sorbents, or other acceptable <br />means, until company maintenance personnel repair the problem. In cases where <br />continued operation may cause uncontainable fluid losses, plant operations will <br />cease until the problem is corrected. <br /> <br />b. Plant employees are instructed in proper lubrication procedures for plant <br />equipment. Manufacturers specifications are followed to eliminate over-fills of <br />gearbox and crankcases. Greasing of bearings and wear surfuces is carefully <br />monitored to eliminate unnecessary grease contact with the ground. Overflow <br />from bearings is collected and disposed of with contaminated sorbent material. <br /> <br />c. Routine engine oil changes will be done with adequate sorbent material to <br />provide for drips and spills associated with maintenance operation Waste oil <br />will be stored in spill proof containers in the service trailer until picked up for <br />off-site disposal. <br /> <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 <br />plant operation ceases prior to a storm event and containment vessels are <br />cleaned and free of petroleum to prevent contact with storm water. <br /> <br />e. Repair and maintenance procedures will be conducted in the service trailer or <br />outside with adequate containment for degreasing and cleaning. Petroleum <br />sorbent material will be available as needed to supplement containment. <br /> <br />7. Use of Available Resources <br /> <br />a Housekeeping supplies, including drip pans, are kept on inventory in the repair <br />trailer at all times. All plant personnel have accessto materials and are <br />instructed in their use. <br /> <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 /> <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 <br />backfilling and to remove impacted soils or aggregates. <br /> <br />d. Plant Foreman, Job Superintendent or other responsible company officials may <br />obtain, mobilize, and utilize any additional resources deemed necessary to <br />mitigate the effects of a petroleum release. This may involve subcontractors, <br />additional equipment, or additional personnel as needed. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />18 <br />
