What's It All About
The Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has required SPCC Plans since 1973. The EPA has produced a brochure explaining who and what types of facilities must have an SPCC Plan. The brochure is a very helpful introduction, however, the dates for compliance published in the brochure are not correct. In August 2002, the EPA amended 40 CFR 112 – making significant changes. For highlights of the changes click here: 40 CFR 112.
These changes must be incorporated into the plans by February 17, 2006 and implemented by August 18, 2006 and not in 2003 as stated in the brochure.
