U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY SPCC FIELD INSPECTION AND PLAN REVIEW CHECKLIST ONSHORE OIL DRILLING, PRODUCTION AND WORKOVER FACILITIES Overview of the Checklist This checklist is designed to assist EPA inspectors in conducting a thorough and nationally consistent inspection of a facility's compliance with the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rule at 40 CFR part 112. It is a required tool to help federal inspectors (or their contractors) record observations for the site inspection and review of the SPCC Plan. While the checklist is meant to be comprehensive, the inspector should always refer to the SPCC rule in its entirety, the SPCC Regional Inspector Guidance Document, and other relevant guidance for evaluating compliance. This checklist must be completed in order for an inspection to count toward an agency measure (i.e., OEM inspection measures or GPRA). The completed checklist and supporting documentation (i.e. photo logs or additional notes) serve as the inspection report. This checklist addresses requirements for onshore oil drilling, production and workover facilities (including Tier II Qualified Facilities that meet the eligibility criteria set forth in 112.3(g)(2)). Qualified facilities must meet the rule requirements in 112.6 and other applicable sections specified in 112.6, except for deviations that provide environmental equivalence and secondary containment impracticability determinations as allowed under 112.6. Separate and standalone checklists address the requirements for: All other onshore facilities including Tier II Qualified Facilities (i.e., those facilities not involved in oil drilling, production and workover activities); Offshore oil drilling, production and workover facilities; and Tier I Qualified Facilities (for facilities that meet the eligibility criteria defined in 112.3(g)(1)). The checklist is organized according to the SPCC rule. Each item in the checklist identifies the relevant section and paragraph in 40 CFR part 112 where that requirement is stated. Sections 112.1 through 112.5 specify the applicability of the rule and requirements for the preparation, implementation, and amendment of SPCC Plans. For these sections, the checklist includes data fields to be completed, as well as several questions with "yes," "no" "NA" answers. Section 112.6 includes requirements for qualified facilities. These provisions are addressed in Attachment D. Section 112.7 includes general requirements that apply to all facilities (unless otherwise excluded). Section 112.9 specifies spill prevention, control, and countermeasures requirements for onshore oil drilling, production and workover facilities Section 112.10 specifies spill prevention, control, and countermeasures requirements for onshore oil drilling, production and workover facilities. The inspector needs to evaluate whether the requirement is addressed adequately or inadequately in the SPCC Plan and whether it is implemented adequately in the field (either by field observation or record review). For the SPCC Plan and implementation in the field, if a requirement is addressed adequately, mark the "Yes" box in the appropriate column. If a requirement is not addressed adequately, mark the "No" box. If a requirement does not apply to the particular facility or the question asked is not appropriate for the facility, mark as "NA". Discrepancies or descriptions of inspector interpretation of "No" vs. "NA" may be documented in the comments box subsequent to each section. If a provision of the rule applies only to the SPCC Plan, the "Field" column is shaded. Space is provided throughout the checklist to record comments. Additional space is available as Attachment E at the end of the checklist. Comments should remain factual and support the evaluation of compliance. Attachments Attachment A is for recording information about containers and other locations at the facility that require secondary containment. Attachment B is a checklist for documentation of the tests and inspections the facility operator is required to keep with the SPCC Plan. Attachment C is a checklist for oil spill contingency plans following 40 CFR 109. Unless a facility has submitted a Facility Response Plan (FRP) under 40 CFR 112.20, a contingency plan following 40 CFR 109 is required if a facility determines that secondary containment is impracticable as provided in 40 CFR 112.7(d). The same requirement for an oil spill contingency plan applies to the owner or operator of a facility with qualified oil-filled operational equipment that chooses to implement alternative requirements instead of general secondary containment requirements as provided in 40 CFR 112.7(k). Attachment D is a checklist for Tier II Qualified Facilities. Attachment E is for recording additional comments or notes. Attachment F is for recording information about photos.

The entire containment system, including walls and floors, are capable of containing oil and are constructed to prevent escape of a discharge from the containment system before cleanup occurs. The method, design, and capacity for secondary containment address the typical failure mode and the most likely quantity of oil that would be discharged. See Attachment A of this checklist. For onshore facilities, one of the following or its equivalent: Dikes, berms, or retaining walls sufficiently Weirs, booms or other barriers, impervious to contain oil, Spill diversion ponds, Curbing or drip pans, Retention ponds, or Sumps and collection systems, Sorbent materials.

The gallon amount(s) specified (either 1,000 or 42) refers to the amount of oil that actually reaches navigable waters or adjoining shorelines not the total amount of oil spilled. The entire volume of the discharge is oil for this determination. Onshore Oil Drilling, Production and Workover Facilities Page 10 of 14 June 2014 ONSHORE OIL PRODUCTION FACILITIES--40 CFR 112.9 NA PLAN FIELD (Drilling and workover facilities are excluded from the requirements of 112.9) Production facility means all structures (including but not limited to wells, platforms, or storage facilities), piping (including but not limited to flowlines or intra-facility gathering lines), or equipment (including but not limited to workover equipment, separation equipment, or auxiliary non-transportationrelated equipment) used in the production, extraction, recovery, lifting, stabilization, separation or treating of oil (including condensate), or associated storage or measurement, and is located in an oil or gas field, at a facility.
