_______________________________________________ (signature), (title), (date);
(E) the California Certificate of Financial Responsibility (COFR) number for the tank vessel(s) covered by the plan shall be included in the front of the plan, or for fleet plans shall be listed separately in a subsection of the plan.(2) Each plan shall identify a Qualified Individual, as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision, and any alternates that may be necessary for the purpose of implementing the plan and documentation that the Qualified Individual acknowledges this capacity. If an alternate or alternates are identified in the plan, then the plan shall also describe the process by which responsibility will be transferred from the Qualified Individual to an alternate. During spill response activities, notification of such a transfer must be made to the State Incident Commander at the time it occurs.(3) Each plan shall provide the name, address, telephone number and facsimile number of an agent for service of process designated to receive legal documents on behalf of the plan holder and documentation that the agent for services of process acknowledges this capacity. Such agent shall be located in California.(4) Each plan shall identify and ensure by contract or other approved means a certified Spill Management Team, as described in subchapter 5 of this chapter. The certified spill management team shall be the appropriate tier classification pursuant to section 830.3 of subchapter 5. (A) The spill management team may have an interim certification for purposes of satisfying contingency plan requirements.(B) A single spill management team may be listed if it is capable of responding in all geographic regions in which the plan holder operates.(C) The spill management team may consist of personnel employed by the plan holder or persons affiliated with the plan holder, contracted personnel, or a combination thereof.(D) If the plan holder contracts for these services, documentation that the Spill Management Team acknowledges this capacity shall be included in the plan.(5) Each plan shall contain evidence of the contract or other approved means (as defined in Section 790 of this subdivision), verifying that any oil spill response organization(s) that are named in the plan will provide the requisite equipment and personnel in the event of an oil spill. Plan holders shall only contract with an OSRO(s) that has received a Rating by OSPR (as specified in Section 819 of this subchapter) for the booming, on-water recovery and storage, and shoreline protection services required.(b) VCOASC Description(1) Each plan shall describe the vessel's design and operations with specific attention to those areas from which a spill could reasonably be expected to impact the marine waters of California. This description shall include, at a minimum, the following information: (A) a piping and tank diagram including the location of valves, vents and lines; the age, design, and construction of the vessel; the range of oil products normally carried in each structure; and safety equipment;(B) a description of the types, physical properties, health and safety hazards and maximum storage or handling capacity of the oil or product carried. A material safety data sheet (MSDS) or equivalent will meet some of these requirements and can be maintained separately aboard the vessel providing the plan identifies its location;(C) the vessel's classification, hull type, gross registered tonnage (GRT), oil cargo capacity, length, draft and beam.(c) Prevention Measures (1) Each plan holder shall take all appropriate prevention measures designed to reduce the possibility of an oil spill occurring as a result of allisions, collisions, groundings, explosions or operator error during the operation of the VCOASC. Each plan shall include a summary of the policies, programs, guidelines and/or procedures designed to implement the following:(A) methods to reduce spills during transfer and storage operations, including overfill prevention measures, and immediate spill containment provision. Any information developed in compliance with Title 33 CFR, Parts 154 and 156 may be substituted for all or part of any comparable prevention measures required by this subsection;(B) procedures to assure clear communication among all the parties involved during transfer operations;(C) use of vessel traffic service systems where available;(D) procedures to be used to avoid the known navigational hazards.(E) Where a plan holder's VCOASC is engaged in transfer operations at a facility subject to Public Resources Code 8755, and the plan holder is in compliance with State Lands Commission regulations for oil transfer operations, the plan holder shall be considered in compliance with the provisions of this subsection.(F) The plan holder shall provide additional relevant information to the Administrator upon request.(3) At the time the initial contingency plan is submitted, the owner/operator shall either submit a Certificate Of Inspection (COI) issued by the USCG or a certificate issued by a member of the International Association of Classification Societies certified by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) of the most recent vessel inspection, or verify that the vessel has such a certificate and that the certificate is available for review.(4) The owner/operator shall also submit a Safety Management Certificate to demonstrate compliance with the performance elements in the International Safety Management (ISM) Code subject to IMO Resolution A.741(18), or shall submit proof of compliance with the American Waterways Operators (AWO) Responsible Carrier Program, if applicable.(d) Planning for the Location of Response Resources The owner/operator must be prepared to respond to a spill anywhere within the marine waters of California where the VCOASC transits. To determine the regions in which response equipment and personnel must be available, the owner/operator shall include in the plan a description of the VCOASC's normal routes of travel including a list of each of the six Geographic Regions that the VCOASC transits along these routes. OSPR has developed Shoreline Protection Tables (SP Tables (see Section 790)), incorporated by reference herein and posted at OSPR's website) for VCOASC traffic in California's marine waters. Owners/operators shall meet the response resource and time frame requirements for the appropriate Small Harbor from the SP Tables when contracting for shoreline protection services.
(e) Containment Booming and On-Water Recovery Each plan holder must contract for containment booming and on-water recovery response resources up to their Response Planning Volume for all potential spills from the VCOASC that could reasonably be expected to impact the marine waters of California. Additionally, each plan must also demonstrate response capability sufficient to address potential spills in each Geographic Response Area (GRA), if available, or Geographic Region through which the vessel may transit. (GRA's are geographic subdivisions of ACP area.) To determine the amount of response resources for containment booming and on-water recovery, each plan holder must calculate a Response Planning Volume as outlined below:
(1) Reasonable Worst Case Spill To calculate the Response Planning Volume, it is first necessary to determine the reasonable worst case spill for each vessel. The reasonable worst case spill is calculated as 30% of the vessel's total cargo capacity of petroleum products.
(2) Persistence and Emulsification Factors (A) The reasonable worst case spill volume is then multiplied by a persistence factor relative to the most persistent type of oil that each VCOASC carries over the marine waters of California. The persistence factors are specified below: | Oil Group | Group 1 | Group 2 | Group 3 | Group 4 |
| Persistence Multiplier | .20 | .50 | .50 | .50 |
(B) Emulsification Factors: The volume determined from the calculation above is then multiplied by one of the following emulsification factors, again, based on the type of oil. | Oil Group | Group 1 | Group 2 | Group 3 | Group 4 |
| Emulsification Multiplier | 1.0 | 1.8 | 2.0 | 1.4 |
(C) Response Planning Volume The total determined by this calculation is a Response Planning Volume.
1. The Response Planning Volumes to be used to determine the amount of equipment and services required shall be the greater of the amount necessary to address the Response Planning Volume as calculated in Subsections 818.03(e)(1) --(2) or the Planning Volume for On-water Recovery for Inland/Near-shore Environment calculated for the vessel's federal response plan prepared pursuant to 33 CFR, Part 155.1045 . The Planning Volume for On-water Recovery is the Adjusted Volume from the federal calculations determined prior to establishing response tiers utilizing the mobilization factors.2. The calculations used to determine the Response Planning Volume shall be included in the plan.(3) Response Capability Standards The equipment and personnel necessary to address the Response Planning Volume is brought to the scene of the spill over a period of time. The timeframes are dependent upon the GRA or Geographic Region in which the VCOASC transits.
The standards set forth in this section may not reflect the exigencies of actual spill response. However, these are the standards that must be used to determine the amount of equipment and personnel that must be under contract or other approved means. Response resources in addition to those under contract must be identified and a call-out procedure in place to access this equipment if the VCOASC has a spill that exceeds the Response Planning Volumes. The owner/operator is ultimately responsible for addressing the entire volume of an actual spill regardless of the planning volumes.
(A) On-Water Daily Recovery Rates and Containment Boom Amounts 1. The total amount of on-water containment and recovery equipment and services required shall be the amount necessary to address the Response Planning Volume determined in Subsection 818.03(e)(2)(C), as follows:i. VCOASC that transit in High-Volume Ports shall have sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to 10% of the calculated Response Planning Volume (as calculated in Sections 818.03(e)(1)-(2)) at the scene of the spill within two hours. There shall be sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to the remaining Response Planning Volume within 12 hours.ii. VCOASC operating in Facility Transfer areas or the Santa Barbara Channel area shall have sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to 10% of the calculated Response Planning Volume (as calculated in Sections 818.03(e)(1)-(2)) at the scene of the spill within 12 hours. There shall be sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to the remaining Response Planning Volume within 36 hours.iii. VCOASC that transit along the Balance of the Coast shall have sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to 10% of the calculated Response Planning Volume (as calculated in Sections 818.03(e)(1)-(2)) at the scene of the spill within 18 hours. There shall be sufficient on-water containment and recovery equipment and services to respond to the remaining Response Planning Volume within 36 hours.(4) Transfer Operations Each plan shall demonstrate that the VCOASC owner/operator owns or has access to sufficient and appropriate boom, trained personnel and equipment, maintained in a stand-by condition, such that at least 600 feet of boom can and will be deployed for the most effective containment immediately, but no longer than 30 minutes after the discovery of a spill. Additionally, each plan holder shall identify the equipment, personnel and procedures such that an additional 600 feet of boom can and will be deployed within one hour for the most effective containment in the event of an oil spill. Response resources owned or under contract to the marine facility or vessel engaged in oil transfer operations may be used to meet this requirement.
(5) On-Water Response Equipment and Services (A) Each plan shall demonstrate that the VCOASC owner/operator has under contract or other approved means (as defined in Section 790 of this subdivision) access to all necessary response resources to comply with the Response Capability Standards for containment booming and on-water recovery established pursuant to Subsection 818.03(e). The amount of response equipment required will take into account the effective daily recovery capacity (as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision) of the oil recovery equipment.(B) The equipment identified for a specific area must be appropriate for use in that area given the limitations of the geography, bathymetry, water depths, tides, currents and other local environmental conditions. For those areas that require shallow-water response capability (refer to the relevant U.S. Coast Guard Area Contingency Plan), the plan shall provide for an adequate number of shallow-draft vessels (as defined in Section 815.05 of this subchapter) to be owned or under contract or other approved means and available to respond to provide shoreline protection of all sensitive sites identified in the trajectory analysis conducted as part of the Environmental Consequence analysis. Additionally, the equipment identified shall also be appropriate for use on the type of oil identified. To the extent that the following information is provided by a Rated OSRO, evidence of a contract or other approved means with a Rated OSRO will suffice: 1. the location, inventory and ownership of the equipment to be used to fulfill the response requirements of this subchapter;2. the manufacturer's rated capacities and operational characteristics for each major item of oil recovery equipment;3. the type and capacity of storage and transfer equipment matched to the skimming capacity of the recovery systems;4. the effective daily recovery capacity (as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision) for each major piece of on-water recovery equipment listed, as well as the effective daily recovery capacity for the skimming systems as a whole. i. A request may be submitted to the Administrator to review the effective daily recovery capacity for a piece of equipment if it can be shown that the equipment has a different capacity than the derating factor allows.ii. The Administrator's decision regarding a change in the effective daily recovery capacity for a piece of equipment will be issued as soon as administratively feasible.5. vessels designated for oil recovery operations, including skimmer vessels and vessels designed to tow and deploy boom;6. procedures for storage, maintenance, inspection and testing of spill response equipment under the immediate control of the operator;(f) Shoreline Protection Each plan must provide for shoreline protection in the Small Harbor the VCOASC may transit. Each plan shall demonstrate through contracts(s) or other approved means, the response resources necessary to protect each type of shoreline and all applicable sensitive sites as outlined in the appropriate Small Harbor as listed in the SP Tables (see Section 790), incorporated by reference herein. The SP Tables shall be reviewed, and updated if needed, annually by OSPR staff, using the procedures as outlined in the Administrative Procedure Act.
(1) Shoreline Protection Requirements for Vessels Operating in Small Harbors Included in the SP Tables is a listing of Small Harbors throughout the state. The requirements in the Small Harbor Table apply to all vessels over 300 GT that operate in the small harbors as listed. The following apply to the Small Harbor Table only:
(A) Non-dedicated resources are allowed for shoreline protection for the vessels that operate in these harbors.(B) The amounts of boom, boats and staff, as listed, are required for the vessels that operate in these harbors. In some locations additional response resources may be required for included or adjacent sensitive sites if this has been identified in the applicable ACPs.(C) Resource requirements can be met either with pre-positioned equipment (as identified in the owner/operator's Contingency Plan) or by a contract with a Rated OSRO. Advance notice to the OSRO is required before the plan holder can begin operating in the small harbor.(D) Unless otherwise specified in the Small Harbor Table, anytime that a vessel over 300 GT operates in these small harbors, that vessel shall have a contract or other approved means for a minimum of 2,500 feet of boom that can be deployed in 6 hours.(E) An owner/operator may propose lesser amounts of shoreline protection resources than that listed in the Small Harbor Table, for carrying out planned projects in the Balance of the Coast, upon petitioning and approval of the Administrator. The proposal may be tested by the Administrator anytime prior or subsequent to plan approval.(2) Shoreline Clean-Up (A) Each plan shall describe methods to clean up spilled oil and remove it from the environment. The owner/operator shall have a contract or other approved means to provide the appropriate shoreline clean up services. The equipment identified for a specific area must be appropriate for use in that area given the limitations of the bathymetry, geomorphology, shoreline types and other local environmental conditions. Additionally, the equipment identified shall be appropriate to implement all the applicable strategies, and appropriate for use on the type of oil identified. The description shall include: 1. methods for shoreside clean-up, including containment and removal of surface oil, subsurface oil and oiled debris and vegetation from all applicable shorelines, adjacent land and beach types; and2. measures to be taken to minimize damage to the environment from land operations during a spill response, such as impacts to sensitive shoreline habitat caused by heavy machinery or foot traffic.(g) Response Procedures (1) Each plan shall describe the organization of the VCOASC's certified spill management team.
