  20. 3 EQUIPMENT OPERABILITY AND READINESS RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Response resource mobilization and response times • Location that the vessel operates farthest from the storage location of the response should be used to determine whether the resources are capable of arriving on scene within the time specified • The specified time should included the time for notification, mobilization and travel time of resources Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  21. 3 AVERAGE MOST PROBABLE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to respond to the 50 barrel average most probable discharge • At the point of an oil transfer involving a nontank vessel. These resources should include: • Containment boom • twice the length of the largest vessel involved in the transfer • Capable of being deployed within one hour of the detection of the spill ( if < 12 miles from shore) • Capable of being deployed within one hour + travel time from the nearest land at a speed of 5 knots if the transfer operation is more than 12 miles from shore • Oil recovery devices • With an effective daily recovery rate of 50 barrels • Available at the transfer site within 2 hours of the detection of an oil discharge • Oil Storage capacity • Daily storage capacity equivalent to twice the effective daily recovery capacity required on scene • Disposal of recovered oil products. Specific disposal procedures should be addressed in the applicable Area Contingency Plan. Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  22. 3 MAXIMUM MOST PROBABLE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of containing and collecting up to 2,500 barrels • Planning volume: 2,500 barrels or 10 % of the total oil capacity • Oil recovery devices • To meet the applicable maximum most probable discharge volume planning criteria • To be located so as to arrive on scene : • In high volume port areas and the Great Lakes: within 12 hours of the discovery of the discharge • In all other rivers and canals, inland, nearshore and offshore areas: 24 hours • In all open ocean areas: 24 hours plus the travel time • Data to be submitted to support the effective daily recovery capacity – • Equal to 50% of the planning volume • R = T x 24 x E • R= Effective daily recovery capacity • T – Throughput in barrels per hour (nameplate capacity) • E = 20% efficiency factor • As an alternative: Adequate evidence that a different effective daily recovery capacity ( actual verified performance data in spill condition or test using ASTM F 631) • Example: • Weir skimmer having a manufacturer’s throughput at the pump of 267 gallons per minutes • 267 gpm = 381 barrels per hour • R= 381 x 24 X .2 = 1,829 barrels per day • After test according to ASTM procedure: skimmer’s oil recovery rate determined to be 220 gpm. Sufficient resources to support 12 hours per day. • 220 gpm = 314 barrels per hour • R= 314 x 12 = 3768 barrels per day Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  23. 3 MAXIMUM MOST PROBABLE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of containing and collecting up to 2,500 barrels of oil or 10% of the total oil capacity • Sufficient booms available, within the response times, for: • Oil collection and containment • Protection of shoreline areas Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  24. 3 MAXIMUM MOST PROBABLE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of containing and collecting up to 2,500 barrels of oil or 10% of the total oil capacity • Temporary storage capacity • If available storage capacity is insufficient, the effective daily recovery capacity should be downgraded to the limits of the available storage capacity • Example of maximum most probable discharge volume planning calculation for equipment identification in a higher volume port area • Vessel’s oil capacity: 10,000 barrels • Planning volume: 10% • 1,000 barrels • Effective daily recovery capacity: 50% of the planning volume • 500 barrels per day • Ability of oil recovery devices • T = 500 /24xE = 500/24x.2 • T= 500/4.8 = 105 barrels/hr • Temporary storage capacity • Twice the daily recovery capacity = 1000 barrels per day Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  25. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of responding to worst case discharge planning volumes • Planning for on-water recovery • To take into account a loss of some oil due to evaporation and natural dissipation, potential increase due to emulsification and potential for deposit of some oil on the shore line • To determine the relative volumes into the three categories: oil lost to the environment, oil deposited on the shore line and oil available for on-water recovery, as a function of: • Total volume of oil carried • Appropriate group for the type of petroleum carried • Geographic area in which the vessel operates • Percentages of the total volume to be used for removal capacity planning Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  26. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of responding to worst case discharge planning volumes • Adjustment for appropriate emulsification factor • Adjusted volume to be multiplied by the on-water oil recovery resource mobilization factor Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  27. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of responding to worst case discharge planning volumes • Location so that the contracted resources arrive on scene within the applicable time: • For higher volume port areas: 12 hours of the discovery of an oil discharge • For the Great Lakes, Tier 1: 18 hours • For rivers, canals, inlan,d, nearshore and offshore, Tier 1: 24 hours • For the open ocean: 24 hours with an additional travel time allowance of 1 hour for every additional 5 NM from shore • Resulting on-water recovery capacity in barrels per day is used to identify response resources necessary to sustain operations in the applicable geographical area. • The equipment should be capable of sustaining operation for the specified time period • Nearshore/inland/great lakes : 4 days • Rivers : 3 days • Open Oceans : 10 days • Applicable cap Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  28. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of responding to worst case discharge planning volumes • Shoreline cleanup capacity: • Dependent upon • Total volume of oil carried • Appropriate group for the type of petroleum carried • Geographic area in which the vessel operates • Using this information, determination of the percentage of the total fuel volume to be used for shoreline cleanup resource planning Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  29. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Resources to be capable of responding to worst case discharge planning volumes • Shoreline cleanup capacity: • Adjustment for emulsification factor • Resulting volume to be used to identify an oil spill removal organization with the appropriate shoreline cleanup capability • Example • Vessel with a 100,000 bbls. Group IV oil, will move from a higher volume port area to another area? The vessel’s route will be 70 miles from shore • Emulsification factor: 1.4 • Areas trnasited: Inand, Nerashore, Offshore, Open ocean • Planned % on-water recovery • Inland 50% • Nearshore 50% • Offshore 40% • Open ocean 20% • Planned % onshore recovery • Inland 70% • Nearshore 70% • Offshore 30% • Open Ocean 30% Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  30. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Example (continued) • General formula to determine planning volume: • (planning volume = (capacity) x (% according to above table) x (emulsification factor) • Planning volume for on-water recovery: • Inland 100,000 x .5 x 1.4 = 70,000 bbls • Nearshore 100,000 x .5 x 1.4 = 70,000 bbls • Offshore 100,000 x .4 x 1.4 = 56,000 bbls • Open ocean 100,000 x .2 x 1.4 = 28,000 bbls • Planning volume for onshore recovery: • Inland 100,000 x .7 x 1.4 = 98,000 bbls • Nearshore 100,000 x .7 x 1.4 = 98,000 bbls • Offshore 100,000 x .3 x 1.4 = 42,000 bbls • The owner should contract with a response resource capable of managing a 98,000-barrel shoreline cleanup in those areas the vessel comes closer than 50 miles from shore Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  31. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Example (continued) • Resources for on-water recovery, using mobilization factors: • (barrel per day on-water recovery) = (on-water planning volume) x (mobilization factor) • Because the specifications for tier 1 for inland and offshore exceeds the caps, the vessel owner would only need to contract for 10,000 bbls par day for Tier 1 • 10% of the on-water recovery capability for offshore and 20% of the capacity for inloand/nearshore, for Tier 1, should be capable of operating in water with a depth of 6 feet or less Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY

  32. 3 WORST CASE DISCHARGE RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT • Example (continued) • The owner or operator would also be required to identify by contract for quantities of boom specified in the following table Title of the presentation - DD/MM/YY
