ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
SPCC FIELD INSPECTION AND PLAN REVIEW CHECKLIST
OFFSHORE 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 offshore oil production, drilling, and workover facilities.
Separate and standalone checklists address the requirements for:
Onshore facilities including Tier II Qualified Facilities (excluding oil drilling, production and workover facilities);
Onshore oil drilling, production and workover facilities including Tier II Qualified Facilities as defined in 112.3 (g) (2);
and
Tier I Qualified Facilities (for facilities that meet the eligibility criteria defined in 112.3 (g) (1)).
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.
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 " or " NA " answers.
Section 112.7 includes general requirements that apply to all facilities (unless otherwise excluded).
Section 112.11 specifies spill prevention, control, and countermeasures requirements for offshore 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 D at the end
of the checklist. Comments should remain factual and support the evaluation of compliance.
Attachments (Attachments A and B are included for hybrid facilities which have both offshore and onshore components)
Attachment A is a checklist for Sections 112.8 and 112.12. This checklist specifies requirements for spill prevention,
control, and countermeasures for onshore facilities (excluding oil production facilities).
Attachment B is a checklist that specifies requirements for spill prevention, control, and countermeasures for
onshore oil production facilities (112.9 provisions) and onshore drilling and workover facilities (112.10 provisions)
Attachment C is for recording information about containers and other locations at the facility that require secondary
containment.
Attachment D is a checklist for documentation of the tests and inspections the facility operator is required to keep
with the SPCC Plan.
Attachment E 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 F is for recording additional comments or notes.
Attachment G is for recording information about photos.

navigable waters or adjoining shorelines not the total amount of oil spilled. The entire volume of the discharge is oil for this determination.

Documentation of Field Observations for Containers and Associated Requirements
Inspectors should use this table to document observations of containers as needed.
Containers and Piping
Check containers for leaks, specifically looking for: drip marks, discoloration of tanks, puddles containing spilled or leaked
material, corrosion, cracks, and localized dead vegetation, and standards / specifications of construction.
Check aboveground container foundation for: cracks, discoloration, and puddles containing spilled or leaked material, settling,
gaps between container and foundation, and damage caused by vegetation roots.
Check all piping for: droplets of stored material, discoloration, corrosion, bowing of pipe between supports, evidence of stored
material seepage from valves or seals, evidence of leaks, and localized dead vegetation. For all aboveground piping, include the
general condition of flange joints, valve glands and bodies, drip pans, pipe supports, bleeder and gauge valves, and other such items
(Document in comments section of $ 112.11.)
Secondary Containment (Active and Passive)
Check secondary containment for: containment system (including walls and floor) ability to contain oil such that oil will not escape
the containment system before cleanup occurs, proper sizing, cracks, discoloration, presence of spilled or leaked material (standing
liquid), erosion, corrosion, penetrations in the containment system, and valve conditions.
Check dike or berm systems for: level of precipitation in dike / available capacity, operational status of drainage valves (closed), dike
or berm impermeability, debris, erosion, impermeability of the earthen floor / walls of diked area, and location / status of pipes, inlets,
drainage around and beneath containers, presence of oil discharges within diked areas.
Check drainage systems for: an accumulation of oil that may have resulted from any small discharge, including field drainage
systems (such as drainage ditches or road ditches), and oil traps, sumps, or skimmers. Ensure any accumulations of oil have been
promptly removed.
Check retention and drainage ponds for: erosion, available capacity, presence of spilled or leaked material, debris, and stressed
vegetation.
Check active measures (countermeasures) for: amount indicated in plan is available and appropriate; deployment procedures are
realistic; material is located so that they are readily available; efficacy of discharge detection; availability of personnel and training,
appropriateness of measures to prevent a discharge as described in 112.1 (b). Note that appropriate evaluation and consideration
must be given to any use of active measures at an unmanned production facility.
