SPCC Program Development & Compliance

Build a Reliable SPCC Program for EPA Compliance

Protecting your facility from oil spills begins with a well-developed Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Program. If your facility stores oil above EPA regulatory thresholds, you may be required to develop and maintain an SPCC Plan in accordance with 40 CFR Part 112.

Whether you need a new SPCC Plan, an update to an existing plan, or ongoing compliance assistance, we provide practical solutions tailored to your facility’s unique operations and oil storage systems.

    What Is an SPCC Program?

    An SPCC Program is a facility-specific strategy designed to prevent oil spills from reaching navigable waters and adjoining shorelines. The program includes a comprehensive SPCC Plan that identifies oil storage locations, spill prevention measures, inspection procedures, secondary containment systems, and emergency response actions.

    A properly developed SPCC Program helps your facility:

    Meet EPA SPCC requirements under 40 CFR Part 112

    Reduce the risk of oil spills and environmental damage

    Improve inspection and audit readiness

    Protect employees, property, and nearby waterways

    Maintain organized compliance records

    Support long-term environmental compliance

    “Every facility has unique operational and environmental risks. That’s why we develop customized SPCC programs instead of relying on generic templates.”

    Our SPCC Program Development Services

    We provide comprehensive SPCC consulting services designed to help facilities meet EPA requirements while improving environmental protection and operational efficiency.

    SPCC Plan Development

    We prepare facility-specific SPCC Plans that accurately document oil storage containers, transfer operations, inspection procedures, spill prevention measures, emergency response actions, and recordkeeping requirements.

    Facility Compliance Assessments

    Our consultants evaluate your facility to determine SPCC applicability, identify compliance gaps, and recommend practical solutions for achieving regulatory compliance.

    Oil Storage Equipment Evaluations

    We assess aboveground storage tanks, drums, transformers, generators, hydraulic equipment, and other oil-filled equipment to ensure they are properly documented within your SPCC program.

    Secondary Containment Reviews

    Proper secondary containment is a critical component of SPCC compliance. We evaluate existing containment systems and recommend improvements where necessary.

    Inspection & Maintenance Programs

    Routine inspections are essential for maintaining compliance. We develop inspection schedules, maintenance procedures, and documentation systems that support ongoing compliance.

    Spill Prevention & Emergency Response Procedures

    We create clear procedures that help your facility prevent spills, respond effectively to incidents, and minimize environmental impacts.

    SPCC Plan Updates

    As your facility grows or operations change, your SPCC Plan should be updated. We assist with technical amendments, facility modifications, and required five-year plan reviews.

    Ongoing Compliance Support

    Environmental compliance is an ongoing responsibility. Our consultants provide continued guidance to help your organization maintain compliance as regulations and operational needs evolve.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is SPCC compliance?

    SPCC compliance involves meeting EPA Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure regulations under 40 CFR Part 112 to prevent oil discharges into navigable waters.

    Facilities with aboveground oil storage capacity exceeding 1,320 gallons or completely buried storage capacity exceeding 42,000 gallons may be required to maintain an SPCC Plan, depending on EPA applicability.

    An SPCC Plan typically includes facility information, oil storage inventories, spill prevention measures, inspection schedules, secondary containment requirements, maintenance procedures, employee responsibilities, and emergency response procedures.

    EPA regulations generally require facilities to review and evaluate their SPCC Plan at least once every five years and whenever significant operational changes occur.

    Yes. Plans should be updated whenever facilities add oil storage equipment, modify operations, or make changes that affect spill prevention measures.

    An experienced consultant helps ensure regulatory compliance, prepares accurate documentation, identifies compliance gaps, and provides practical recommendations that reduce environmental risks.

    Yes. We assist clients with SPCC Plan revisions, technical amendments, five-year reviews, facility modifications, inspections, and ongoing environmental compliance consulting.
