All industrial dischargers, and those minor dischargers specified by the city in their industrial wastewater discharge permits or limited discharge permits, shall prepare accidental spill prevention plans (ASPP) showing facilities and operating procedures necessary to provide the protection required by LMC 14.60.350. These plans shall be submitted to the city’s department of public works for review and approval. The plan shall include but not be limited to:
A. An ongoing inventory of the types and quantities of pollutants used or stored by the industrial user;
B. A diagram of the process and storage location(s) at the facility;
C. A diagram of the location(s) of floor drains to sanitary or storm sewers;
D. A description of the measures used to prevent discharge to sanitary or storm sewers;
E. An outline or list of the emergency response and notification procedures to be followed in case of accidental spills;
F. An outline of the spill prevention procedures followed by the industrial user;
G. A description of spill containment, treatment, and disposal methods;
H. A description of the training procedures and training frequencies for personnel involved in handling, sorting, and disposing of toxic or hazardous pollutants.
Review and approval of such plans and operating procedures by the city shall not relieve the discharger from the responsibility to modify its facility as necessary to meet the requirements of this chapter nor relieve the discharger from fines, civil penalties, or other liabilities which may be imposed in the event of violations of this code or other applicable ordinances or laws.
