3.0 BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES <br /> The BMPs are measures used to reduce or mitigate storm water pollution from industrial activities.BMPs are <br /> a broad class of measures and may include processes,procedures, schedules of activities, and prohibition of <br /> practices. Specific measures followed at this facility are discussed below. <br /> 3.1 Housekeeping <br /> General good housekeeping measures are employed to minimize the potential for a release to the storm water <br /> drainage system. Garbage containers are emptied on a weekly basis by Allied Waste Management Inc. <br /> Garbage cans with cleanup waste are disposed of separately. <br /> The site employs a vacuum sweeping company to remove dust and accumulated sediment monthly. The oil <br /> water separators are inspected quarterly, and a vacuum disposal company is contracted to dispose of <br /> accumulated oil on a quarterly basis. <br /> 3.2 Preventative Maintenance <br /> All catch basins are cleaned when the depth of debris accumulates,and the debris surface will be maintained <br /> at least 6 inches below the outlet pipe. The secondary containment vault is inspected daily,to ensure that the <br /> rubber cover is effective at restricting water accumulation, and to ensure that at least 2,500-gallons of the <br /> secondary containment volume is available for an emergency release. The operation and maintenance manual <br /> for the oil stop valve is closed and all stormwater from the site is being collected in the secondary containment <br /> vault. Water is being disposed off-site by Marine Vacuum Service(206)762-0240. <br /> 3.3 Spill Prevention and Emergency Cleanup <br /> Employees are trained in hazardous materials management and storage requirements. Spill response <br /> equipment and materials are readily accessible.A notification system has been established and a copy of the <br /> IDPP is current and available at Nelson's main facility as identified in Table 4. <br /> Table 4-Emergency Response Contacts <br /> Incident Agency/Response Subcontractor Telephone Number <br /> Fire City of Everett Fire Dept. 911 <br /> Release to Sewer City of Everett Public Utilities (425)257-8882 <br /> US Ecology (800)883-4672 <br /> Release to Soil Washington Department of Ecology (425)649-7000 <br /> Groundwater State Emergency Response Commission 911 <br /> Uncontrolled Release Slotta Design and Consulting (206)459-5775 <br />
