Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC)

Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC)

Under the Clean Water Act (CWA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires that regulated oil storage facilities develop and implement oil spill prevention, control, and countermeasure (SPCC) plans. In addition to the CWA requirements, the federal Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) requires that facilities detail and implement spill prevention and control measures in their Facility Response Plans (FRPs). In this spill prevention training course, participants will learn about SPCC plans, pollution regulations, proper storage of oil, oil transfer procedures, proper containment practices including secondary containment, and how to avoid security breaches and follow proper discharge procedures.

Please note: The course number for Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) was changed from ETI 702 to ETI 303.
