Section 1 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Introduction Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
1.0 Introduction
This Spill Response Plan (SRP) has been prepared by the City of Austin (DOA) Department
of Aviation (DOA). The SRP specifies emergency and non-emergency response procedures
to be used during spill events at the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA).
Operations at ABIA involve the use, storage, and handling of many different chemicals and,
despite the continual efforts of ABIA operators to prevent them, spills do periodically occur.
The protocol and procedures required by this SRP are designed to ensure ABIA maintains a
state of readiness and is capable of responding to spills in an expeditious and orderly
manner that maximizes protection of the Spill Responders, the general public, and the
environment.

Spills represent a significant liability. At a minimum, responding to spills can be extremely

costly and disruptive to ABIA operations. Worse yet, spills can represent a serious threat to
human health or the environment. All appropriate Tenant personnel at ABIA must
understand the adverse impact caused by spills and must incorporate preventative measures
as an integral part of their day-to-day operations. The COA reserves the right to recover all
costs associated with spill response and cleanup operations resulting from ABIA Tenant
spills.

Facility Operations and Spill Characteristics Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

2.0 Facility Operations and Spill Characteristics

Operations at ABIA involve the DOA and over 50 different Tenants who perform a variety of
industrial activities such as:

 servicing, repairing, and maintaining aircraft and ground service vehicles;

 cleaning, painting, repairing, and fueling equipment; and
 handling and storing de-/anti-icing agents.

From an operational perspective, the industrial activities at ABIA are divided into two distinct
“Operations” areas: Airside Operations and Landside Operations. Airside refers to all areas
where aircraft are operated or serviced. Landside refers to all other areas. These areas are
delineated on Figure 2-1.

Operations at ABIA involve the use of a wide variety of chemicals including vehicle and jet
fuels, solvents, paints, cleaners, greases, oils, “blue juice” and others. Based on historical
spill records, the activities undertaken at ABIA that most frequently result in a spill are
fueling/de-fueling of aircraft and ground support equipment, and lavatory service operations.
The ABIA areas where these operations typically take place are the Passenger Terminal, Air
Cargo, Texas Army Air National Guard (TANG), State Aircraft Pooling Board (SAPB), and
the General Aviation Aprons, and Ground Service Equipment (GSE) Maintenance Area, as
illustrated in Figure 2-2.

Fuel spills typically occur as a result of one or more of the following:

 Valves designed to prevent overfilling of aircraft reservoirs malfunction;

 Fuel dispenser hoses malfunction or become damaged;
 The integrity of the truck-mounted tank walls or fittings fail;
 Automated shut-off systems on fuel tanks fail;
 Techniques utilized to transfer fuel from aboveground to truck-mounted tanks are
improper; or
 Above ground storage tanks leak.

Lavatory liquids (i.e. blue juice) spills typically occur as a result of one or more of the
following:

 Lavatory dispenser hoses and fittings malfunction;

 Techniques utilized to transfer lavatory wastes from aircraft to truck-mounted tanks
and from the truck-mounted tanks to the triturator are improper; or
 The facility’s triturator malfunctions.

Other reasons chemical spills may occur at ABIA include human error in handling chemicals,
leakage from air cargo containers carrying hazardous materials, and vehicular accidents.
Figure 2-2 identifies the areas where spills have most frequently occurred based on historical
records.

2.1 SPILL CATEGORIES

For purposes of implementing certain response and notification protocols specified in this
SRP, two distinct categories of spills have been identified: Major Spills and Minor Spills. Spill
response and notification protocols will differ depending on the category of a given spill.
Definitions for these spill categories are provided below.
Major Spills are those that meet ANY of the following criteria:

 The spilled material is considered a health or physical hazard based on its chemical
or physical properties and the quantity of spilled material exceeds 3 gallons or a
Reportable Quantity (RQ) as defined under Title 30 of the Texas Administrative Code
Chapter 327.4, whichever is less;
 The spilled material has entered the storm water drainage system or such entry is
imminent;
 The spilled material has the potential to migrate off property;
 The chemical and physical properties of the spilled material are unknown, or the type
of material is unknown;
 The spilled material adversely affects the environment; or,
 The spilled material cannot be controlled or contained by the responsible Tenant.

Minor Spills are those that do not meet ANY of the above criteria.

2.2 REPORTABLE QUANTITIES

Understanding the term “Reportable Quantity” (RQ) is important to the proper implementation
of this SRP as it has a direct bearing on spill notification and reporting requirements. RQ is
the term that is used by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to define pre-set measures of chemicals
which, if spilled in excess of, trigger special notification and reporting requirements. RQs
differ depending on the specific chemical or product type, and depending on the whether the
release is to land or to water. For purposes of this SRP, the chemicals or product types for
which RQs are provided are described as follows:

 Hazardous substances –chemicals specified by the EPA under Code of Federal

Regulations (CFR) 40 Part 302 and the TCEQ under Texas Administrative Code
(TAC) Chapter 327. The chemicals are listed due to their toxicity.
 Petroleum products- petroleum substances derived from distillation and processing of
crude oil, including vehicle and aircraft fuels such as diesel, gasoline, and JP-4. This
category, however, does not apply to Naphtha-type or kerosene-type jet fuels such as
those used at ABIA.
 Oils – crude oil and any other oils that do not meet the definition of a petroleum
product. Naphtha-type and kerosene-type jet fuels are considered oils for RQ
purposes.
 Industrial Solid Wastes or other substances – materials defined by the TCEQ as
solid wastes resulting from or incidental to any process of industry or manufacturing,
mining, or agricultural operations.

F-3
Section 2 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Facility Operations and Spill Characteristics Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

The RQs specified under each are presented in the following sections.

 Hazardous Substances
For releases to land, hazardous substance RQs are listed in a Table in
Chapter 327 of the Texas Administrative Code. A copy of this table is provided
in Appendix C for reference.
For releases to state waters, the RQ for a hazardous substance is whichever
is less: 100 pounds, or the RQ listed in 327.4. By example, the RQ listed in
327.4 for toluene is 1000 pounds (140 gallons). If released to waters of the
state, however, the RQ is 100 pounds (14 gallons).
 Oils
For releases to land, the RQ is 210 gallons (five barrels)
For releases to waters in the state, the RQ is the quantity sufficient to create a
visible sheen on the surface of the water.
 Petroleum Products (and Used Oils)
For releases to land, the RQ is 25 gallons unless the releasing facility meets
certain exemptions under petroleum storage tank regulations, in which case
the RQ is 210 gallons.
For releases to water, the RQ is the quantity sufficient to create a visible
sheen on the surface of the water.
 Industrial Solid Waste and Other Substances
There is no RQ for releases to land.
For releases to waters in the state the RQ is 100 pounds.

2.3 REPORTABLE QUANTITIES FOR COMMON ABIA CHEMICALS

To facilitate RQ evaluations specific to operations at ABIA, a list of the chemicals most
frequently used during operations at ABIA, and their associated RQs, is provided below. If a
spill of any of these, or other, chemicals occurs, and the amount spilled is in excess of the
measure cited, then a RQ spill has occurred and appropriate notification and reporting
procedures must be implemented, as discussed in later sections.

Since the RQ is often listed in pounds and spills are typically the result of a release of a liquid
volume, it is necessary to convert from gallons to pounds to determine compliance
requirements for many spills. The Texas Department of Health has a “Gallons To Pounds
Converter” that will make this conversion for any substance given the specific gravity of the
substance, as listed on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). This converter is found at
[Link]

Sample conversions are listed in the following Table for several of the common-use
chemicals at ABIA.

(see Section 5.0). Airport Communications Dispatch then contacts ARFF or AFD and
Operations according to the Notification Sequence.

F-10
Section 5 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Notification Sequence Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
4.0 Spill Response Procedures
There are three primary components that are common to all spill responses, described as
follows:

 Counter Measures - immediate actions taken to eliminate the source or cause of the
spill; and/or to stop or slow the spread or migration of spilled materials;
 Clean Up - controlled and coordinated actions taken to contain and remove spilled
materials and any impacted media, such as soils, sediments, concrete, and/or
asphalt;
 Restoration – Post-cleanup actions taken to return the site to its pre-spill condition,
including replacement of impacted soil, power washing of paved surfaces, sampling,
revegetation, and removal of debris.

Regardless of the location or the nature of a chemical spill at ABIA, the objective of the spill
response will always be the same:

To accomplish spill containment and clean up in an expeditious and orderly manner that
maximizes the protection of all Spill Responders, the general public, and the environment.

Although all spill response operations share this common goal, the specific procedures that
will be used, and the Spill Responders that will be involved, will be different depending on the
spill classification. From a response perspective, the two main response categories are:

Procedure 1 - Responses for all major spills at ABIA.

Procedure 2 - Responses for all minor spills at ABIA.

Spill response procedures for each of these are described in the following sections.

4.1 PROCEDURE 1 - ALL MAJOR SPILLS AT ABIA

Flow Chart 1 illustrates Spill Response Procedures for all major chemical spills that occur at
ABIA. A detailed description for Procedure 1 of the Spill Response procedures is presented
in Appendix A.

4.2 PROCEDURE 2- ALL MINOR SPILLS AT ABIA

Flow Chart 2 illustrates Spill Response Procedures for all minor spills at ABIA. A detailed
description for Procedure 2 is presented in Appendix A.

F-11
Section 5 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Notification Sequence Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

5.0 Notification Sequence

The Notification Sequence must be performed for all major spills. The Notification Sequence
is illustrated in Flowchart 3 and described below.

The Notification Sequence is initiated by the individual who first observes the spill (i.e. the
First Observer). The First Observer calls Airport Communications Dispatch at 530–2242
(ABIA) and provides the following information:

(1) Name, address, and telephone number of party responsible for the spill;
(2) Date, time, and location of the spill;
(3) Source of the spill;
(4) Type of material spilled;
(5) Quantity spilled;
(6) Actions taken to contain and respond to the spill; and
(7) Whether the spill entered the storm water drainage system.

After notifying the Airport Communications Dispatch, the First Observer notifies his/her
Supervisor.

Upon receiving notice, the Airport Communications Dispatch notifies Spill Responders, as
follows:

For Airside Spills:

 ARFF at 911 for emergencies and 411 for non-emergencies, and
 Operations Coordinator at 530-7550 or 845-7336 (cell).

For Landside Spills

 AFD Hazmat at 911 for Emergencies and 411 for non-emergencies, and
 Operations Coordinator at 530-7550 or 845-7336 (cell).

After completing an assessment of the spill, Operations will make notifications to:

 Field Maintenance at (512) 530-6352 ; Building Maintenance at (530-7504), and

 DOA EC at (530-6621 or 748-3263) as appropriate.

5.1 Reportable Quantity Notification Requirements

In addition to the Spill Responder notifications described above, depending on the specific
spill conditions, certain outside governmental agencies, and ABIA’s Public Information Office,
may also require notification. The DOA EC, or his designee, will be responsible for these
notifications. The criteria to be used by the EC or designee are as follows:

 If the spill is over 25 gallons or enters ABIA’s storm water system, but under the RQ
(see Section 2.2), the EC, or his designee, will notify the following City of Austin
Department:
- Watershed Protection and Development Review (512) 974-2550
 If the spill is equal to or greater than the RQ for the spilled material, the DOA EC, or
his designee, will provide verbal notification to the following agencies within 24 hours:

If the Spill Conditions threaten, or potentially threaten public safety, the EC, or his designee,
will also notify the Public Information Office.

Records of all verbal reports should be retained within the DOA’s spill file.

5.2 NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR MINOR SPILLS

For Minor spills that occur at ABIA, the Notification Sequence described above is not
required. The only notifications that are required for this category of spill are as follows:

 The First Observer must notify his/her supervisor,

 The Supervisor must notify the Responsible Tenant, if other than self.

For a complete listing of Spill Responder Contacts and primary and backup telephone and
pager numbers, refer to Appendix B of this SRP.

Section 6 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Training Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

6.0 Training
To maintain a proper state of readiness, two types of training are required: Spill Responder
training, and Spill Response Plan training. Each are discussed below.

6.1 SPILL RESPONDER TRAINING

Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) regulations address training
requirements for Spill Responders. These requirements are outlined in Title 29 of the Code
of Federal Regulations, Chapter 17, Section 1910.120 (q)6. The level of training required for
a Spill Responder is based on the level of spill response activity assigned. It is the
responsibility of the Tenant to ensure each employee receives the appropriate amount of spill
response training. At a minimum, all Tenants performing industrial activities at ABIA shall
ensure their designated operational employees receive "First Responder Awareness Level”
OSHA training.

6.1.1 Training in Spill Recognition and Reporting

First Responder Awareness Level Training is geared towards those individuals who are likely
to witness or discover a spill. They will initiate the spill response by notifying the appropriate
persons. First responders at the awareness level shall have sufficient training or experience
to recognize the material, and understand the potential outcomes associated with a spill of
the material, and implement initial counter measures when they can be implemented safely.
Most importantly, the first responder shall have the ability to recognize the need for additional
resources, and the ability to obtain those resources.

6.1.2 Training in Basic Spill Countermeasures

First Responder Operations Level Training is designed for individuals who initially respond to
spills. This first response is intended to protect nearby people, property, and the
environment from the spill. First Responders at the Operations Level possess the basic
knowledge of hazard and risk assessment techniques and shall perform basic control and
containment of spills (i.e. counter measures) using available resources. Those individuals
who receive First Responder Operations Level Training are capable of containing a release
from a safe distance, minimizing the spread of a release, and limiting or preventing exposure.

6.1.3 Training in Advanced Spill Response

Hazardous Materials Technician Training enables individuals who respond to a spill to
directly address the source of the spill, as well as spill containment and cleanup. They are
capable of approaching the point of release to plug, patch, or otherwise stop the release, and
are capable of performing advanced control, containment, and confinement of spills using
available resources. Hazardous materials technicians understand hazard and risk
assessment techniques and are capable of implementing the employer's emergency
response plan. Fueling contractors shall ensure their employees or designated employees
receive Hazardous Materials Technician training.

6.2 SPILL RESPONSE PLAN TRAINING

By necessity, spill response procedures at ABIA will involve multiple Spill Responders
working collectively as a Team. To ensure spill response is accomplished expeditiously and
effectively, all Spill Responders must know their own roles and responsibilities as well as
those of the other Responders. To accomplish this, the DOA will conduct annual SRP

F-14
Section 6 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Training Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

training. At a minimum, the training will be conducted as part of ABIA’s annual Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3). All ABIA Spill Responders will be required to attend this
training. Additional training may be conducted as deemed appropriate by the DOA.

F-15
Section 7 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Spill Response Equipment and Materials Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
7.0 Spill Response Equipment and Materials
Equipment and materials used to contain and confine a spill typically consist of spill pans and
absorbent materials. Absorbent materials come in several forms—granular, socks, berms,
pillows, pads and sheets. For Minor Spills, these may be utilized by placing pans or pads
under a continuing drip-type leak, surrounding a spill with berms or socks, covering drainage
inlets with sealing covers, and/or spreading absorbent material directly onto the spill.

All Tenants who undertake industrial activities at ABIA are required to have Spill Response
Kits readily available and maintained at their leaseholds. The number of kits will vary in
accordance with Tenant operations. Kits should be capable of absorbing a 30-gallon liquid
spill.

Figure 7-1 depicts the locations of the DOA Spill Response Kits. DOA Spill Response Kits
are made available to all Tenants operating at ABIA and are located on the Passenger
Terminal, Air Cargo and Maintenance Aprons, Loading Dock, and Police Stations. The DOA
Spill Response Kits supplement the Tenants’ kits and are NOT meant to replace them.
Should a Tenant utilize any or all of the supplies located in the DOA Spill Response Kits,
they are to immediately notify the DOA Environmental Coordinator at (512) 530-6621. The
DOA may recover any or all of the costs associated with replenishing DOA Spill
Response Kit supplies utilized by the Tenants. Operations and Field Maintenance will
monitor the supply of spill response materials and an inventory will be included as part of the
annual SWPPP site inspections. As needed, additional supply kits will be requested using
ABIA work order tracking system.

Section 8 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Safety Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
8.0 Safety
Personnel safety is the top priority when addressing a spill. Therefore, it is important that the
type of material spilled be identified in order to ensure that proper safety measures are
implemented.

When addressing a spill, the situation must be assessed prior to initiating a response. The
spill should be approached from up wind and from higher ground if possible. Contact with
smoke, fumes, vapors, and liquids should be avoided. Proper personal protective equipment
(PPE) should be used when such contact can not be avoided to properly respond to the spill.

Responding personnel should secure the site to limit exposure to the spilled material by
others. The area should be immediately isolated and Operations should close all affected
areas and issue Notice to Airmen (NOTAMS), as necessary. If necessary, Airport Police and
ARFF should redirect all pedestrian and vehicular traffic away from the spill area and assist
with crowd control efforts and access to the spill site. Airport Public Safety (ARFF or Police)
will also evacuate all buildings and the area immediately downwind of the spill, if necessary.

In order to reduce the risk of fire and explosion at spills of flammables or combustibles, all
potential ignition sources should be eliminated. Response personnel should also seek to
eliminate the source and commence containment activities as soon as possible.

Section 9 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Waste Disposal and Site Restoration Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
9.0 Waste Disposal and Site Restoration
Spill response activities are not complete until all response-derived wastes are properly
disposed and the site is restored to pre-spill conditions, to the extent feasible. Each of these
requirements are described below.

9.1 WASTE DISPOSAL

Transportation, storage, and disposal of waste must be undertaken in accordance with
applicable local, state, and federal regulations. Improper disposal of waste materials can
result in fines and/or imprisonment for the responsible individuals.

Spilled materials, absorbent, and other spent clean-up material associated with all spills in
the Airfield Operations area are to be disposed of by the responsible party.

Spilled materials, absorbent, and other spent clean up material associated with all spills at
non-Tenant facilities within the Landside Operations area will be disposed by ARFF or AFD
Hazmat only in cases where a responsible party is not identified. Lavatory wastes from spills
can not be placed in the triturator. These wastes must be handled in the same manner as
other chemical releases. Spill response materials associated with all spills at Tenant
facilities shall be disposed by the responsible Tenant.

Absorbent materials used to clean up spills are NOT to be placed in the COA dumpsters.
Spent absorbent materials are to be placed in proper containment and transported to a
designated waste storage area located in the Tenant's leasehold.

Complete records of all disposal manifests, receipts, and other documentation are to be
maintained by the responsible party. Manifest records for all RQ spills must be sent to the
DOA EC. All records must be readily available for review by the DOA EC at all times.

9.2 SITE RESTORATION

The goal of restoration is to return the site to its pre-spill condition. Examples of restoration
efforts include, but are not limited to, replacement of impacted soil and sod; revegetation of
impacted surface; removal of debris; and replacement of damaged materials such as
asphalt, concrete, etc. removed during spill containment and cleanup. At a minimum:

 All affected paved surfaces may require power washing after a spill,
 All affected storm drain lines must be flushed, and
 All materials that have entered a water quality pond must be removed and the surface
restored.

Planning and Engineering, Building Maintenance, and Field Maintenance personnel will be
involved in all restoration efforts. The City of Austin reserves the right to recover costs
associated with restoring a spill site to its pre-spill condition.

Post-Cleanup Assessments Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
10.0 Post-cleanup Assessments
The following sections describe follow up inspections procedures and conditions under which
environmental investigations may be conducted.

10.1 FOLLOW UP INSPECTIONS

The DOA Environmental Coordinator will perform a follow up inspection of all Major Spill
locations after cleanup is completed. Operations, or the Tenant, as appropriate, will support
the Environmental Coordinator in the performance of these inspections.

10.2 ENVIRONMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS

Soil and water samples may need to be obtained when the spilled material encounters soils,
penetrates pavements, or enters the storm water drainage system, Onion Creek, or other
tributaries of the Colorado River. All sampling will be coordinated by the DOA Environmental
Coordinator at 530-6621. The organization or individual responsible for the spill will be
responsible for the costs associated with containment, cleanup, sampling, disposal, and
restoration of the spill site.

F-19
Section 11 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Reporting and Record Keeping Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012
11.0 Reporting and Record Keeping
The following sections describe spill reporting and record keeping requirements.

11.1 SPILL INCIDENT REPORTS

Operations must complete an ABIA Spill Incident Report (SIR) for all Major or Minor Spills
that occur in the common use airside operation areas. A copy form of a SIR is provided in
Appendix D. SIRs must be submitted to the DOA EC within 24 hours of the spill and all
reports shall be retained on file.

For minor spills at Tenant facilities within the Landside Operations area, the Tenant shall
keep a complete record of the spill. These Minor Spill records must be readily available for
review by the DOA EC at all times.

11.2 GOVERNMENTAL REPORTING

In addition to verbal notification requirements (see Section 5.0), written reporting to certain
governmental agencies may also be required, depending on the nature of a spill. The DOA
EC will perform all written reporting. Agencies which require written reports, and the
reporting criteria, are as follows:

 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Division of Emergency and Remedial

Response must be provided a written report within 30 days of any Reportable
Quantity spill;
 The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Oil and Hazardous
Substance Spills Division must be provided a written report within 30 days any
Reportable Quantity spill; and
 The City of Austin, Watershed Protection Department: must be provided a written
report within 30 days of any Major Spill.

The nature of the report provided will depend on the quantity and type of material spilled, and
whether it entered the ABIA drainage system or a waterway. The agencies listed above can
provide current requirements at the time of notification. In general, however, the written
reports may include:

 a written copy of the verbal notification and updated listing of all information provided;
 actual time, date, and duration of the release or discharge;
 actual time and date of discovery of the release or discharge;
 actions taken to respond to and contain the release or discharge;
 EPA spill number and the National Response Center case number on submitted
information;
 name of the facility;
 name(s) of the owner or operator of the facility;
 location of the facility;
 location of the release or discharge (street(s), county, township, city);

fees, monitoring, corrective action, or other responses are required by any regulatory agency
for a spill at a Tenant facility, the Tenant is fully responsible for meeting all regulatory
requirements.

11.3 RECORD KEEPING

The DOA EC will maintain a file on all Major Spills reported at ABIA, all Minor Spills reported
from the Airfield Operations area, and all Minor Spills reported at non-Tenant facilities within
the Landside Operations area. The files will consist of a written record or electronic
spreadsheet incorporating, at a minimum, the following information:

 Date and time of spill notification;

 Date and time of spill occurrence (a range of times or stop and start times may be
appropriate, depending on the nature of the spill);
 Person reporting;
 Responsible party;
 Contact name and phone number for future information;

Spill Response Procedures
Procedure 1 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

PROCEDURE 1

SPILL RESPONSE PROCEDURES FOR ALL MAJOR SPILLS AT ABIA

As illustrated in Flowchart 1 the initial response to Major Spills involves the implementation of
counter measures by the individual(s) who first observe the spill (i.e. the First Observer).
Counter measures may involve:

 closing valves or flipping switches to quickly stop the release,

 blocking storm drains or pipe inlets to prevent or slow the migration of the spilled
materials.

Counter measures can only be performed by persons trained in First Responder

Awareness (see Section 6.0), and only if the actions can be implemented safely.

After, or concurrent with, taking appropriate counter measures, the First Observer must
initiate the Notification Sequence (see Section 5.0) by calling the Airport Communications
Dispatch at 530-2242 (ABIA). The First Observer must then move away from the immediate
area of the spill and standby to assist the Spill Responders.

For major spills, Operations will take the lead, with assistance from ARFF (Airside) or AFD
(Landside), in assessing spill conditions and providing direction and coordination of all spill
response activities, as follows:

 Operations and ARFF personnel will determine the severity of the spill.
 If it is determined the spill requires implementation of ABIA’s Emergency Response
Plan, an Incident Command Post will be activated. AFD Hazmat will act in the role of
Incident Commander and all other Spill Responders must conduct their activities
under the direction of the AFD Captain.
 If an emergency response is required, ARFF and/or AFD Hazmat will perform
primary spill containment and cleanup activities, with applicable support as
needed from all other Spill Responders (see Section 3.0 for identification of Spill
Responders and associated responsibilities).
 If an emergency response is not required, and the Responsible Tenant has been
identified and is capable of quickly performing containment and cleanup, Operations,
with assistance from ARFF and/or AFD Hazmat, will direct the Tenant in the
containment and cleanup of the spilled materials.
 If an emergency response is not required, and a Responsible Tenant has not been
identified, or is not capable of quickly addressing the spill, DOA Field Maintenance,
ARFF and/or AFD Hazmat will perform containment and cleanup activities.
 Should the spill require closure of the affected areas, Operations must issue an
appropriate NOTAM. Operations may open all movement areas and cancel all
NOTAMS when conditions justify.
Procedure 1 Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Spill Response Plan
Sept 2012

 Once the Spill Responders are at the scene, spill containment and cleanup should
commence as soon as possible. As directed by the Spill Responders, properly
trained personnel should proceed with the following, as appropriate:
- Locate Spill Response Kits;
- Don appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE);
- Contain the spill by placing absorbent socks or berms around the perimeter of the
spill;
- Initiate spill clean-up by placing absorbent materials such as pads, pillows, or
sheets over the spill to immobilize and recover the spilled materials;
- Place used absorbent materials in disposable bags, or other appropriate
containers depending on the type of material spilled, and transport to a
designated waste storage area located within the Responsible Tenant’s
leasehold, or to another locations as approved by the Spill Responders (DO NOT
place used absorbent materials in DOA dumpsters); and
- Arrange for an EPA or TCEQ-licensed waste transporter to remove the waste
materials from the site.
 To the maximum extent possible, spill cleanup procedures should be conducted in a
manner that does not cause the spread of contamination. To this end, spilled
materials must not be washed or otherwise allowed to flow into the storm water
drainage system. If there is any threat of the spilled material entering the storm drain
system, Operations, or other appropriately trained personnel, will close all gates and
valves or block the spilled materials in channels for capture and removal from the site.
When conditions allow, Field Maintenance will open appropriate storm water drainage
gates and valves. As necessary, the DOA EC should be contacted for technical
assistance regarding protection of the storm drain system.
 After the spill is contained and cleaned up, the site must be restored to pre-spill
conditions and all waste materials and impacted media must be removed from the
site in accordance with applicable state, federal, and local regulations. These
activities will be performed by the Responsible Tenant, or ARFF as appropriate.
 Within 24 hours of the spill event, a Spill Incident Report must be completed and
submitted to the DOA EC. The SIR will be completed by the Airfield Operations.

 Follow up inspections of the site will be conducted by the EC as necessary. The

Responsible Tenant or Operations, as appropriate, will be responsible for assisting in
post-cleanup inspections.

PROCEDURE 2

SPILL RESPONSE PROCEDURES FOR MINOR SPILLS AT ABIA

The initial response action involves the implementation of counter measures by the
individual(s) who first observe the spill (i.e. the First Observer). Counter measures may
involve:

 closing valves or flipping switches to stop the release,

 blocking storm drains or pipe inlets to prevent or slow the migration of the spilled
materials.

Counter measures can only be performed by persons trained in First Responder

Awareness (see Section 6.0), and only if the actions can be implemented safely.

After, or concurrent with, taking appropriate counter measures, the following procedures
should be implemented as appropriate:

 Notify the Supervisor of the Responsible Tenant, if other than self;

 Assess spill and determine method for cleanup if not completed during counter
measures;
 Locate Spill Response Kits;
 Don appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE);
 Contain the spill by placing absorbent socks or berms around the perimeter of the
spill;
 Initiate spill clean-up by placing absorbent materials such as pads, pillows, or sheets
over the spill to immobilize and recover the spilled materials;
 Place used absorbent materials in disposable bags, or other appropriate containers
depending on the type of material spilled, and transport to a designated waste
storage area located within the Responsible Tenant’s leasehold, or to another
locations as approved by the DOA Environmental Coordinator (DO NOT place used
absorbent materials in DOA dumpsters);
 Arrange for an EPA or TCEQ-licensed waste transporter to remove the waste
materials from the site;
 Restore site to pre-spill condition;
 Complete a DOA Spill Incident Report and maintain the report on-site;
 Perform follow-up activities.

Tenants must retain all records relating to minor spills at their facilities and must implement
measures to prevent their reoccurrence
