Ecology invites interested members of the public, local, and tribal governments to review and comment on required updates to industry-written oil spill contingency plans. Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 173-182 requires oil-handling facilities, pipelines, and vessels to have a state-approved oil spill contingency plan that ensures their ability to respond to major oil spills. These updates are required by the state’s oil spill planning regulations.
Under WAC 173-182, public notice, review, and comment periods are required for permanent significant changes to approved plans as required in WAC 173-182-142. The changes which are considered significant for the plan update are an increase in worst-case discharge volume for operations above the Bonneville Dam and in Pasco, WA, which may impact:
· Loss of equipment that results in being out of compliance with any planning standard;
· Changes in equipment ownership if used to satisfy a plan holder planning standard; or
· Modification or discontinuing of any mutual aid, letter of intent or contract agreement.
