Executive Summary
The Kern Ice and Cdld Storage Company is a cold storage warehouse consisting of 34 rooms. Room numbers
1 through 14 are the freezer rooms while room numbers 15 through 34 are the cooler rooms. Anhydrous
ammonia is used in the refrigeration system.
The California Accidental Release Prevention (CalARP) Program merged the existing state Risk Management
and Prevention Plan (RMPP) and the new federal Risk Management Plan (RMP) promulgated pursuant to
Section 112(r) of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. The California Office of Emergency Services (OES)
oversees the CalARP regulations. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has delegated
implementation authority for the federal program to OES. At the local level, the program is implemented by the
Certified Unified Permitting Agency (CUPA). For facilities operating within the City of Bakersfield, the CUPA is
the City of Bakersfield Division of Environmental Services.
Because the CalARP program is a combination of the federal and state requirements, the program includes two
lists of regulated toxic and flammable substances. While many of the chemicals are present on both lists, the
state applicability thresholds are generally lower.
The RMP must be developed from a comprehensive assessment of the processes, operations, and procedures
at the facility, and includes four main elements:
·A Management System that specifies qualified and responsible persons;
· A Hazard Assessment that analyzes and documents potential environmental and population receptors due to
an accidental release;
· A Prevention Program that compiles operational procedures, safety information, and specific hazard
information into a program that minimizes the threat of an accidental release; and
06/29/2004 9:04:59 AM Page 8 of 9
Facility Name: Kern Ice and Cold Storage
EPA ID
· An Emergency Response Program that establishes procedures to deal with the results of an accidental release.
WZl
Also addressed in this document are requirements of Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 355. The
requirements of this section apply to any facility at which an extremely hazardous chemical is present at or
above the threshold planning quantity. These facilities are required to notify the local emergency planning
committee or emergency response personnel of the chemicals present, to provide a facility emergency
response coordinator and to notify the committee of any changes that occur.
Any facility that produces, uses or stores hazardous chemicals above the threshold planning quantity is
required to notify specific agencies in the event of a release. Ammonia, the only hazardous chemical of any
quantity located at Kern Ice and Cold Storage's facility, has a threshold planning quantity of 500 pounds. The
reportable quantity for ammonia is 100 pounds.
This plan conforms to the City of Bakersfield's Guidance for the Preparation of a Facility Compliance Plan. The
City of Bakersfield's Guidance is taken from the Draft Guidance Document for the California Consolidated
Contingency Plan published by the Governor's Office of Emergency Services and is modeled after the National
Response Team's Integrated Plan, the "One Plan."
