On Wednesday, August 9, 2017, Tony Robledo and I accompanied by David Clark and other GPMT personnel conducted a site walk-through of the facility to observe the covered process, equipment, and operations. The facility has eight (8) distillation columns, four (4) hydrogenation reactors and ninetyfour (94) storage tanks. Targa provided a trained operator with a FLIR camera and observed no spills, leaks, or air emissions.
40 C.F.R. Part 68 - CHEMICAL ACCIDENT PREVENTION PROVISION
Subpart A - General
40 C.F.R. 68.10 Applicability - I observed that GPMT is a stationary source, with a Clean Air Act Title V permit that has more than a threshold quantity of regulated substances in their process. GPMT resubmitted a RMP (5-year update as required by 40 CFR 68.190 (b)(1)) on September 2, 2014, that described the process containing flammables held at more than a threshold quantity. GPMT is subject to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) Process Safety Management (PSM) Standard (29 CFR 1910.119). This facility is regulated by 29 CFR 1910.119 (Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals), 1910.38 (Employee Emergency Plans), 1910.120 (Hazardous Waste and Emergency Response), 40 CFR 112 (Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure), State and Federal EPCRA Rules/Laws, as well as other federal, state and local regulations which are in place to reduce the potential for the release of highly hazardous chemicals
40 C.F.R. 68.12 General Requirements - I reviewed the re-submission of GPMT's RMP that was resubmitted on September 2, 2014, that lists flammable chemicals for a Program Level 3 process.
40 C.F.R. 68.15 Management - GPMT developed a management system to oversee the implementation of the risk management program elements. The organizational chart that was provided to me outlined the positions to implement the individual elements of the RMP, as required by this subpart.
Subpart B - Hazard Assessment
40 C.F.R. 68.20 Applicability - GPMT is a Program 3 stationary source subject to this part. The facility is required to prepare an offsite consequence analysis and complete a five-year accident history.
40 C.F.R. 68.22 Offsite Consequence Analysis parameters - I reviewed the offsite consequence analysis and supporting documentation. I reviewed the documents and discussed with Brittany Roca to assure the data was accurate. I spoke with David Clark about the parameters used by GPMT to document this data.

40 C.F.R. 68.25 Worst-case Release Scenario Analysis - GPMT identified and documented a worsecase release scenario analysis for the RMP covered flammable substances. The distance to endpoint was done by using the methodology in the RMP Offsite Consequence Analysis Guidance. The distance to the endpoint for flammable substances was calculated using RMP*CompTM.
40 C.F.R. 68.28 Alternative Release Scenario Analysis - GPMT identified and analyzed at least one alternative release scenario for flammable substances held in the covered process. The distance to the endpoint was calculated using RMP*CompTM.
40 C.F.R. 68.30 Defining Offsite Impacts-Population - I discussed with GPMT personnel about the completed offsite consequence analysis. GPMT used the year 2010 Census Bureau population data to calculate population numbers reported in their RMP.
40 C.F.R. 68.33 Defining Offsite Impacts-Environment - GPMT provided maps that identified the potential offsite impacts and identified public receptors.
40 C.F.R. 68.36 Review and Update - I reviewed GPMT's documentation that illustrated reviews and updates regarding the offsite consequences are occurring at least every five years.
40 C.F.R. 68.39 Documentation - GPMT provided documents of the offsite consequence analysis data. For worst-case and alternative case scenarios, a description of the vessel or pipeline, the substance selected as worst-case, and the rationale for selection was included; likewise, assumptions included use of any administrative controls and any passive mitigation that were assumed to limit the quantity that could be released, estimated quantity released, release rate, and duration of release. The methodology used to determine distance to endpoint was documented by the facility. The data used to estimate population was provided in the form of maps that had the distance to endpoint labeled with a circle from the emission point.
40 C.F.R. 68.42 Five-year Accident History - GPMT did not report any accidental release(s) in their RMP that resulted in deaths, injuries, evacuations, or property damage.
Subpart D - Program 3 Prevention Program
40 C.F.R. 68.65 Process Safety Information - I reviewed various process safety information for the RMP units at GPMT, and all information reviewed met the requirements of this subpart.
