Prevention and Control Plan v Date: 9/5 /2009 Rev. Date: NA l� Spill Prevention and Control Plan 1 Introduction Plas2Fuel produces synthetic crude oil from recycled mixed -waste plastics through a proprietary process. The oil that is produced further processed in an outside oil settling tank, and then is stored in an above - ground storage tank at Plas2Fuel's production facility in Tigard, Oregon. NOTE: It is important to note that the synthetic crude oil produced at this facility is solid at temperatures below about 100 °F. Thus, liquid oil that might leak or spill from the processing or storage equipment would likely solidify quickly at normal ambient temperatures in Oregon. This Spill Prevention and Control Plan is part of the building permit application package submitted to the City of Tigard. This plan describes measures implemented by Plas2Fuel to prevent oil discharges from occurring from the two tanks and associated piping, and Plas2Fue1's response plans if a discharge were to occur. Kevin DeWhitt is responsible for oil spill prevention at this Plas2Fuel facility and has the authority to commit the necessary resources to implement the Plan as described. Authorized Facility Representative: Kevin DeWhitt Signature: Title: Chief Technology Officer Date: 9/8/2009 2 General Facility Information 2.1 Company Information Table 1: Company Information Name of Type Date of Initial Location Name and Address of Facility Operation Owner Plas2Fuel Onshore synthetic October, 2009 7904 SW Tigard crude oil production Man Office: Corporation H Production from recycled plastic Hunziker Street Main Office: Facility Tigard, OR 97223 7904 SW Hunziker Street Tigard, OR 97223 2.2 Facility Diagrams The AMEC Earth & Environmental, Inc. report included in this submittal, entitled "Site Investigation Summary Report" (AMEC Report), contains several figures referenced in the following sections. Drawings in the Permit Set provided by Emerio Designs, included in this submittal, are also referenced in the following sections. Plas2Fuel Corporation 1 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Orig. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA t Spill Prevention and Control Plan 2.3 Facility Location and Operations The facility is located in a commercial /industrial zone of Tigard, Oregon on tax lot 2S101CA00200. The site comprises approximately 6.7 acres of land, situated south of SW Hunziker Street and west of SW Wall Street (See Figure 2, AMEC Report). The site is accessed from SW Wall Street via SW Hunziker Street. The Plas2Fuel plastics processing equipment is located in Building 3 on this site (See Figure 2, AMEC Report). This large building includes office space, recycled plastic processing equipment, and a maintenance area. Oil storage and transfer equipment is located outside this building on the southeastern boundary of the facility. In full production, the facility will operate 24 hrs /day, 7 days /week; however, for the first year, the facility will operate 24 hrs /day, 5 days /week. The facility will produce a maximum of 2400 gallons of synthetic crude oil in each 24 -hr period. Personnel at the facility during normal daytime operations will include several Plas2Fuel management staff, one Operations Supervisor, three plastics processing equipment operators, an office manager, and several technical support personnel. During evening and night -time shifts, only necessary production staff will be onsite. 2.4 Oil Storage and Handling As shown on Sheet 4 of the Emerio Designs Permit Set, one oil settling tank, one oil storage tank, and an oil transfer area will be located outside the production building on the south side. These tanks and the oil transfer equipment will be placed in a containment basin surrounded by a 6 -in. concrete curb. Refer to Section 3.2, below, for details of this containment structure. 2.4.1 Oil Settling Tank The Oil Settling Tank (OST) is a 750 - gallon, insulated, stainless steel tank located outside the production building near the oil transfer equipment. See Appendix B for the specifications of this tank An oil /water mixture is pumped via a 1 -inch pipe from the plastics processing system inside the building into the OST, where the water and oil continuously settle and separate. An electronic sensor monitors the level of oil in the tank; when the oil reaches a preset level, the oil is automatically pumped from this tank into the Fuel Storage Tank through a 1 -inch pipe continuously connected to the Fuel Storage Tank The OST is shop -built and meets UL 142 and NFPA 30 tank construction standards. Its design and construction is compatible with the oil and water it contains and the temperature and pressure conditions of processing. 2.4.2 Fuel Storage Tank The Above - Ground Fuel Storage Tank (AST) is a 12,000 - gallon, shop -built steel tank with integral secondary containment. This tank meets UL 142 and NFPA 30 tank construction standards. Its design and construction is compatible with the oil it contains and the temperature and pressure conditions of storage. See Appendix A for the specifications of this tank Plas2Fuel Corporation 2 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA Spill Prevention and Control Plan An electronic sensor monitors the level of oil in this tank and alerts Plas2Fuel personnel when a predefined setpoint is reached. Plas2Fuel personnel will transfer oil from the tank to tanker trucks as required. 2.4.3 Transfer Activities The oil will be transported from the facility to refinery facilities by tanker trucks. Although Plas2Fuel production volumes will vary, we expect that a maximum of one 9500 - gallon load of oil will be transported from the facility every five days. Tanker trucks will come to the facility only to transfer crude oil and will not remain at the facility. All transfer operations will be attended by the trucker and by operations personnel. Plas2Fuel proposes using a Scully System to control the transfer of oil from the AST to tanker trucks. The document entitled "Plas2fuel Tank Vehicle Loading Pad - Request For Approval Of An Alternative Means And Method To Oregon State Fire Code Section 3406.5.1.5," included in this submittal, details the proposed tanker truck loading equipment and procedure at this facility. The Scully System utilizes dynamic self - checking that is continuous during the period the interface plug is mated with the interface unit and receptacle on the tank vehicle. The Scully System is designed to prevent the bulk transfer of any crude oil from the storage tank to any tank vehicle until it is connected and is polling the tank vehicle for the following conditions: ♦ The engine on the tractor is turned off. ♦ The tractor and trailer brakes are set. ♦ The actual volume of the tank vehicle is known (entered into the system by the transporter). • The tank overfill sensor is functional. • All product withdrawal valves on the tank vehicle are closed. ♦ The tank vehicle is bonded to an electrical ground. Only after the Scully System has granted permission can Plas2Fuel operators start the transfer pump. If the interface between the tank vehicle being filled and the Scully System is disconnected at any time, the Scully controller shuts off the transfer pump. 2.5 Proximity to Navigable Waters The site is located in a lowland setting with Redrock Creek flowing in a southerly direction along the northern boundary of the site, and an unnamed drainage ditch flowing north to Redrock Creek along the north - western boundary of the Site. Figure 5 of the AMEC Report shows the drainage ditch and Redrock Creek Redrock Creek is a tributary of Fanno Creek; Fanno Creek discharges to the Tualatin River approximately 2 miles south of the Site. Figure 3 of the AMEC Report shows existing storm sewer drains and lines. These lines empty into the drainage ditch on the NW side of the parcel. In the event of an uncontrolled discharge (without containment) from production pipelines or the two tanks, liquid oil on the surface would naturally be contained by a rise in the topography (about 6 ft) to the south and east. However, any oil entering the storm sewer drains and lines would flow into the unnamed drainage ditch on the west side of the site, from there into Redrock Creek, and from there into Fanno Creek. Most of the site's ground surface area is paved with asphalt, with the exception of a graveled area in the northwestern corner. This graveled area is on the opposite side of the Plas2Fuel production building and would not be expected to be affected by any potential discharge of oil. Plas2Fuel Corporation 3 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA Spill Prevention and Control Plan 3 Discharge Prevention 3.1 Characteristics of the Oil Product As noted in Section 1, the synthetic crude oil produced at this facility is solid at temperatures below about 100 °F. The product must be heated to 150 °F for transfer from the AST to a tanker track. Thus, except during exceptionally warm daytime temperatures, liquid oil that might leak or spill from the processing or storage equipment would rapidly solidify at normal ambient temperatures at this facility. 3.2 Spill Containment and Control The facility and equipment are configured to eliminate the possibility of any discharge reaching navigable waters. The following containment and control measures are provided: • The AST is a double - walled, UL 142 - listed tank with integral secondary containment. • The volume in the AST is constantly monitored by the primary control system. The control system automatically alarms at 96% of rated volume and shuts down the plastics processing equipment if the AST reaches 98% of the tank's rated volume. • The capacity of the AST is sufficient to ensure that oil storage is adequate in the event that facility personnel are unable to perform the required transfer from the tank to the tanker truck, or if the tanker truck is delayed. The AST can hold 2,000 gallons more than the expected maximum 4 -day production volume. • The OST, AST, and Oil Transfer Equipment will be placed on a 640 -ft concrete slab that slopes slightly to the east. A concrete curb, varying in height from 6 - to 13- inches to account for this slope, will surround the slab, providing a total secondary containment volume of 1196 gallons. As indicated on Sheet 4 of the Emerio Designs Permit Set, included in this submittal, the required height for the curb surrounding this containment basin was calculated based on a 24- hour /25 -year storm event (rainfall of 3.9 inches) and the potential for a 750- gallon spill from the OST, plus 10 %. Because the AST is a listed secondary containment tank, the volume of that tank was not included in the containment basin volume calculations. • For draining water from the containment basin, the basin is equipped with a locking triple - action valve. To drain the water , the valve must be unlocked and the flange removed. Then a non - reactive hose is connected to the valve , the valve is opened, and the contents are drained into a non - reactive container. The valve is kept closed, except when draining water within the containment basic. The valve opened and resealed following drainage under the responsible supervision of Plas2Fuel operations personnel. This valve is not used for drainage of oil from the containment basin. • Oil or oil- contaminated water is promptly removed using shovels or vacuum equipment, and is either reused or disposed of in accordance with waste regulations. Oil- contaminated water can be re -used in the production system. Plas2Fuel Corporation 4 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA Spill Prevention and Control Plan • The proposed Scully System for the transfer of oil from storage to transport trucks offers a Fail -Safe design that effectively eliminates the possibility of spills from a tanker truck due to overfilling or equipment failure during loading. • Drip trays will be placed under all hose connections or valves whenever oil is being transferred, and under the end of the transfer hose after transfer is completed. • A spill kit containing booms, sorbents, shovels, brooms, and other discharge response materials will be stored inside the production building, in close proximity to the loading area. This material is sufficient to contain small discharges (up to approximately 200 gallons). The spill kit inventory is verified on a monthly basis. 3.3 Evaluation of Discharge Potential 3.3.1 Discharge from the AST No leaks, spills or discharge are expected from the AST. • The AST design is UL listed and NFPA 30 compliant and effectively reduces the possibility of leakage from breaching or corrosion. • The Plas2Fuel Integrated Control System (ICS) closely monitors the level of oil in this tank and alerts production personnel when oil levels reach a pre- determined setpoint. If oil levels in the tank exceed this setpoint, the ICS will automatically shut down the processing equipment. If the signal is lost between the tank gauging system and the ICS, an alarm condition is triggered at the ICS and operations personnel respond immediately. All malfunctions, improper operation of equipment, evidence of leakage, or oil- stained surfaces will be logged and communicated to the Operations Supervisor. • Drip trays will be placed under all valves and connectors during oil transfer operations to capture any minor leaks that might occur during hose connection or disconnection. • The hose connection from the Plas2Fuel AST pump platform to the tanker utilizes grooved couplings, which provides a positive mechanical connection between the tank vehicle and AST transfer hose. • About 2 -3 gallons of synthetic crude oil is ordinarily trapped in the transfer hose between the pump discharge and the tanker fill connection, including the approximate volume of liquid in the hose. This oil is captured in a non - reactive container and returned to the fuel storage tank 3.3.2 Discharge from the OST In the event of a product release from the tank or connections, any discharge from the OST will be captured in the containment basin. The maximum volume of oil or oily water that could be discharged from the OST is 750 gallons. 3.3.3 Discharge from Piping A 1 -inch Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe carries oil and oily water from the plastics processing equipment to the OST. Likewise, a 1 -Inch pipe Schedule 40 carbon steel carries oil from the OST to the AST. In the case of a leak these pipes, any discharge will be captured in the containment basin. The maximum amount of oil or oily water that could be discharged from the piping is 750 gallons. Plas2Fuel Corporation 5 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA ,I Spill Prevention and Control Plan 3.4 Inspections and Records 3.4.1 Daily Examinations Daily visual examinations will be made whenever the plastics processing equipment is in operation. Daily examinations will consist of a walk- through of the processing equipment and around the OST and AST, checking for leaks and proper operation. Operations personnel will examine all valves, fittings, gauges, and piping. Personnel will also inspect pumps to verify proper function and check for damage and leaks. They will look for accumulation of oil or water within the containment basin. The ICS will constantly monitor levels of oil in the OST and AST tanks. A daily production report will be maintained. All malfunctions, improper operation of equipment, evidence of leakage, or oil - stained surfaces will be logged and communicated to the Operations Supervisor. Table 2 summarizes the scope of daily inspections. Table 2: Scope of Daily Examinations Item Observations OST and AST Tank liquid levels Drip marks, leaks from weld seams or base of tanks Puddles containing spilled or leak material Corrosion, especially at base (pitting, flaking) Cracks in metal Concrete containment Cracks basin Puddles containing spilled or leaked material Settling Piping Evidence of leaks, especially at connections /collars Corrosion (pitting, flaking) Evidence of oil seepage from valves or seals Dirt and dust accumulations around flanges or threaded couplings. 3.4.2 Monthly Inspections The monthly inspection covers all processing equipment, piping, and storage tanks. It also includes verifying the proper functioning of all detection devices, including level sensors on the OST and AST. The storage tanks will be inspected for signs of deterioration, leaks, or other indications that maintenance or repairs are needed. The containment basis will be checked for proper drainage, general conditions, evidence of oil, or signs of leakage. The monthly inspection will also involve visually inspecting all valves and pipelines and noting the general condition of items such as transfer hoses, flange joints, expansion joints, valve glands and bodies, catch pans, pipeline supports, locking valves, and metal surfaces. The checklist provided in Appendix C is used during monthly inspections. Records of monthly inspections will be maintained at the Plas2Fuel main office for a minimum of five years. The reports include a description of the inspection procedure, the date of inspection, whether drainage of accumulated rainwater or oil was required, and the inspector's signature.

These tanks are outside the scope of API 653, Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction, Third Edition. 4 Spill Response and Reporting This section describes required response and cleanup procedures in the event of an oil discharge. In general, operations personnel must take the following steps: • Eliminate potential ignition sources; • If possible and safe to do so, identify and shut off the source of the discharge to stop the flow; • Stop the spread of oil, with sorbents, berms, fences, trenches, sandbags, or other material; • Contact the Operations Supervisor or his /her alternate; • Gather required information about the spill; • Verbally notify regulatory authorities and the response organization; • Collect and dispose of recovered products according to regulation. • Complete written notifications as required. Plas2Fuel Corporation Spill Prevention and Control Plan Orig. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA I Spill Prevention and Control Plan 4.1 Spill Discovery Spills, leaks, or discharges would typically be discovered during regular inspections conducted during normal operations. 4.2 Spill Response Materials Boom, sorbent, and other spill response materials are stored inside the production building near the tanker truck loading area. Table 4 lists the response equipment inventory that must be onsite at all times. Table 4: Spill Response Materials Equipment Purpose Empty 55 gallons drums Amount Capture and contain spilled product and contaminated 4 material 50 -ft absorbent socks Absorb liquid oil 10 -ft sections of hard skirted Contain liquid oil 2 deployment boom 2 50 -ft floating booms Contain oil on water 1 Dry, granular absorbent material Absorb liquid oil 2 ft x 3 ft absorbent pads Absorb liquid oil 100 lbs Nitrile gloves Personal protective equipment (PPE) 3 boxes ment Neoprene gloves q p 2 boxes PPE 2 boxes Vinyl /PVC pull -on overboots PPE Non- sparking shovels Construction of earthen dikes; application and removal 3 pairs of absorbents Brooms Sweep up loose material Sand bags Contain oil or oil /water mixture 8 8 4.3 Response to a Minor Discharge A "minor" discharge is defined as one that poses no significant harm (or threat) to human health and safety or to the environment. Minor discharges are generally those where: ♦ The quantity of product discharged is small (less than 10 gallons of oil); ♦ Discharged material is easily stopped and controlled at the time of the discharge; • Discharge is localized near the source; ♦ Discharged material is not likely to reach water; ♦ There is little risk to human health or safety; and ♦ There is little risk of fire or explosion. Minor discharges can be cleaned up by Plas2Fuel personnel. The following guidelines apply: • Immediately notify the Operations Supervisor. ♦ Under the direction of the Operations Supervisor, contain the discharge with discharge response materials and equipment. Place discharge debris in properly labeled waste containers. Plas2Fuel Corporation 8 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA Spill Prevention and Control Plan 4.4 Response to a Major Discharge Because the synthetic crude oil produced at this facility solidifies when atmospheric temperatures are at or less than100 °F, the use of engineered and listed ASTs, and the containment measures in place, any major discharge is extremely unlikely. A "major" discharge is defined as one that cannot be safely controlled or cleaned up by facility personnel, such as when: • The discharge is large enough to spread beyond the immediate discharge area; • The discharged material enters water; ♦ The discharge requires special equipment or training to clean up and mitigate; • The discharged material poses a hazard to human health or safety; or ♦ There is a danger of fire or explosion. In the event of a major discharge, the following guidelines apply: • All workers must immediately evacuate the discharge site via the designated exit routes and move to the designated staging areas at a safe distance from the discharge. Exit routes are included on the facility diagram and posted in the maintenance building, in the office building, and on the outside wall of the outside shed that contains the spill response equipment. • If the Operations Supervisor is not present at the facility, the senior on -site person notifies the Operations Supervisor of the discharge. If the Operations Supervisor is cannot be reached, then operations personnel should contact Kevin DeWhitt or Craig Garrison. • The Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) must immediately contact Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue and the National Response Center by phone. • The Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) must record the calls on the Discharge Notification form in Appendix E and attach a copy to this Plan. • The Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) coordinates cleanup and obtains assistance from a cleanup contractor or other response organization as necessary. • Should a discharge reach Redrock Creek, only physical response and countermeasures should be employed, such as the construction of underflow dams, installation of hard boom and sorbent boom, use of sorbent pads, and use of vacuum trucks to recover oil and oily water from the creek. At no time shall any surfactants, dispersants, or other chemicals be used to remove oil from the creek. If water flow is low in the creek, construction of an underflow dam downstream and ahead of the spill flow may be advantageous. Sorbent material and /or boom should be placed immediately downstream of the dam to recover any sheen from the water. If water flow is normal in the creek, floating booms and sorbent boom can be deployed. Vacuum trucks will then be utilized to remove oil and oily water. Crews should remove oiled vegetation and debris from the creek banks and place them in bags for later disposal. After removal of contaminated vegetation, creek banks should be flushed with water to remove free oil and help it flow down to access points where it can be recovered by vacuum truck.

Date: NA 1 Spill Prevention and Control Plan 4.5 Spill Response Procedures This section describes the actions that must be taken in the event of a discharge, with the responsible personnel for each activity. 4.5.1 Shut Off Ignition Sources Operations personnel must shut off all ignition sources. If necessary, shut off all plastics processing equipment. 4.5.2 Find and Shut Off Source of Discharge If possible, operations personnel should determine the source of the discharge. Then, if safe to do so, operations personnel should immediately shut off the source of the discharge. 4.5.3 Stop the Spread of Oil If safe to do so, operations personnel must use the material and equipment available at the facility to stop the spilled material from spreading. Measures that may be implemented, depending on the location and size of the discharge, include placing sorbent material or other barriers in the path of the discharge (e.g., sand bags), or constructing earthen berms or trenches. 4.5.4 Notify the Operations Supervisor Any discharges must be reported to the Operations Supervisor. The Operations Supervisor is responsible for ensuring that all required agency notifications are made. If the Operations Supervisor is not available, or the Operations Supervisor requests it, then Craig Garrison, Director of Technical Operations, assumes responsibility for coordinating response activities. 4.5.5 Call for Emergency Assistance Certain notifications are dependent on the circumstances and type of discharge: • If oil reaches a sanitary sewer, the City of Tigard should be notified immediately. • If workers are injured, the Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) must call 911 for medical assistance. • The Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) must notify Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue. • If assistance with cleanup is required, the Operations Supervisor (or senior on -site person) must call the spill response and cleanup contractors listed in the Emergency Contacts list in Appendix D. 4.5.6 Gather Spill Information The Operations Supervisor will ensure that the Discharge Notification Form is filled out and that notifications have been made to the appropriate authorities. The Operations Supervisor may ask for assistance in gathering the required information: • Reporter's name • Exact location of the spill • Date and time of spill discovery • Material spilled (oil or water containing a reportable quantity of oil) • Total volume spilled • Total volume reaching or threatening navigable waters or adjoining shorelines • Weather conditions Plas2Fuel Corporation 10 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Rev.

Depending on the location and size of the discharge, personnel may use absorbent towels or granules to absorb material, or they Plas2Fuel Corporation 11 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Orig. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA ' I I Spill Prevention and Control Plan may attach Y piping to the containment curb drain valve to drain oil or oil and water from the containment area and capture it in appropriate vessels. 4.5.9 Notify Agencies in Writing The Operations Supervisor must ensure that all required written notifications are submitted to the appropriate agencies. In Oregon, the emergency service personnel who respond to an incident involving hazardous materials to file a written report with the Office of State Fire Marshal (OSFM). The law defines a hazardous materials incident as "the threatened or actual injury to a human, wildlife, domestic animal or the environment, or any property loss resulting from a hazardous substance release ". The written report must be received within ten working days of the incident. One written incident report is required for each incident. OSFM has developed a Hazardous Material Incident Report Form to be used for this purpose. Responsibility for completing the Incident Report is in the following order: ♦ Fire department or state hazmat team having jurisdiction ♦ Law enforcement • Health professionals (EMT's or ambulance personnel) ♦ Any other emergency service agency, including state agencies, shall confer and determine who will submit the Incident Report Table 6: Agencies Requiring Written Notification Discharge Type Agency Notified Notification Timing Any single discharge of oil to a navigable EPA Region 10 Administrator, with Within 60 days of the waters or adjoining shoreline waterway of a copy sent to the Oregon State Fire qualifying discharge more than 1,000 gallons, or for two Marshal discharges of 42 gallons of oil to a waterway in any 12 -month period. Any discharge reported verbally Oregon State Fire Marshal Within 10 days of the qualifying discharge 4.5.10 Dispose of Affected Materials Wastes resulting from a minor discharge response will be placed in impervious bags, drums, or buckets. The Operations Supervisor will characterize the waste for proper disposal and ensure that it is removed from the facility by a licensed waste hauler within two weeks. Any recovered product that can be recycled will be placed into non - reactive containers and returned to the plastics processing system. Any recovered product not deemed suitable for on -site recycling will be disposed of with the rest of the waste collected during the response efforts. Wastes resulting from a major discharge response will be removed and disposed of by a cleanup contractor. Such wastes may include any recovered product, contaminated soil, contaminated materials and equipment, decontamination solutions, sorbents, and spent chemicals collected during a response to a discharge incident. Plas2Fuel Corporation 12 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Orig. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA Spill Prevention and Control Plan If the facility responds to a discharge without involvement of a cleanup contractor, Plas2Fuel will contract a licensed transportation /disposal company to dispose of waste according to regulatory requirements. The Operations Supervisor will characterize the waste and arrange for the packaging of hazardous waste for either disposal or recycling through the Plas2Fuel process. 5 Personnel Training All Plas2Fuel operations personnel receive training on proper handling of oil products and procedures to respond to an oil discharge prior to entering any Plas2Fuel production facility. The training ensures that all facility personnel understand the procedures described in this Plan and are informed of the requirements under applicable pollution control laws, rules and regulations. Plas2Fuel also ensures that all contractor personnel are familiar with the facility operations, safety procedures, and spill prevention and control procedures described in this Plan prior to working at the facility Personnel are instructed in operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent the discharge of oil, and in applicable federal, state, and local pollution laws, rules, and regulations. Facility operators and other personnel have an opportunity during the briefings to share recommendations concerning health, safety, and environmental issues encountered during facility operations. The general outline of the briefings is as follows: • Responsibilities of personnel and Designated Person Accountable for Spill Prevention; • Spill prevention regulations and requirements; • Spill prevention procedures; • Spill reporting and cleanup procedures; • Equipment failures and operational issues; • Procedures for draining rainwater from containment area. 6 Cleanup Contractor If needed, Plas2Fuel will use NRC Environmental Services, a specialized spill response and cleanup contractor to assist with spill cleanup. This contractor has the necessary equipment to respond to a discharge of oil that affects Redrock Creek, Fanno Creek, the Tualatin River, or adjoining shorelines. Appendix D lists contact information for NRC Environmental Services. Plas2Fuel Corporation 13 Spill Prevention and Control Plan Orig. Date: 9/5/09 Rev. Date: NA I . .
