3. HAZARD ASSESSMENT
A. Objective
This section identifies the hazardous substances that are routinely found at
the facility; their quantity, location, and hazardous properties; and
sensitive areas that may be affected in an environmental emergency.
All personnel involved with handling hazardous substances have been trained
and are familiar with the hazardous properties of the materials and wastes
with which they work.
B. Hazardous Substance Inventory
A list of the hazardous materials and a list of hazardous wastes generally
found at the facility are presented in Tables 3-l and 3-2, respectively.
Included in these Tables are the following types of information:
l. common name and/or chemical name
2. maximum quantity on hand at any given time
3. method of storage and primary use
4. hazardous properties
5. CAS number or California Waste Category Number

F.
Spill Potential:
The oil filled equipment, storage containers, spill prevention techniques
currently utilized and the potential for oil spills are described in this
section. Small spills occurring during normal operation will be contained
and cleaned up in accordance with Section 5.H. of this Emergency Plan.
1) Underground Fuel-Storage Tanks
a) The facility has two 4,000-gallon underground tanks used for
storing unleaded motor-vehicle fuel and diesel fuel, and they
are located west of the Garage Building. They are single-walled
steel tanks which are compatible with the stored fluids. Each
tank is equipped with a computerized fuel level. monitor used for
inventory reconciliation, and each tank fill-pipe is equipped
with a 20-gallon overfill box which is product-tight to contain
spills due to overfilling. The dispenser nozzles used for
filling vehicles from these tanks are equipped with automatic
shut-off devices. The Garage Foreman is responsible for the
tanks and their contents.
Possible Spill Occurrence:
i) Overfilling: The greatest spill potential is from
overfilling during the fuel transfer
process (i.e. filling the tank). Spill
prevention consists of constant supervision
during the filling process. Any fuel
spilled during the filling process would be
contained in the overfill box.
ii) Tank Leak:
If a leak occurs, it would be discharged
into the soil surrounding the tank. Fuel
inventory in the tanks are continually
monitored by the computerized fuel level
monitor. Printouts are reconciled with
readings from the fuel pump totalizers by
the facility personnel. Leak tests are
performed annually to verify the integrity
of· the tank and piping·. The maximum volume
of fuel that could reasonably be expected to
discharge due to tank leak is lOO gallons
per tank.

·
2) Aboveground Waste Oil-Storage Tank
a) The facility has one l,OOO-gallon aboveground storage tank used
for storing waste oil' from garage maintenance operations, and
it is located on a concrete slab adjacent to the Garage
Building. The tank is double-walled with a steel inner tank,
'an annular space, and an outer concrete containment tank.- The
double-walled tank system provides secondary containment for
protection against tank leakage. There is a visual inspection
port for the annular space which is inspected periodically for
fuel. The exterior of the tank is inspected daily for any
signs of leakage. Any oil leakage from the primary steel -tank
would be contained in the annular space. The waste oil in the
tank is pumped out by an oil recycler before it gets full. The
Garage Foreman is responsible for the tank and its contents.
Possibla Spill Occurrence:
·
i) Overfilling: The greatest spill potential is from
overfilling during the fuel transfer
process (i.e. filling the tank). Spill
prevention consists of constant supervision
during the filling process. The maximum
volume of fuel that could reasonably be
expected to discharge would be approximately
5 gallons.
ii) Hose Leakage: Hoses from the tanks would crack and seep
before a complete severing would occur. The
leakage would be noticed during pumping and
would stop when the pump stopped.
iii) Pipe Rupture: The fill pipe is aboveground and is a
single walled pipe. If a rupture occurs,
the maximum potential spill would be the
volume of the fill container which would
not exceed 15 gallons and would be cleaned
up immediately or contained in the
evaporation pond.
3) Fuel-Tanker Truck
·
a) The facility has one dual product fuel-tanker truck with a
capacity of 600 gallons ~f diesel fuel and 1,200 gallons of ,
unleaded gasoline. During off-peak hours, this truck is used to
distribute fuel to the motor vehicles which are parked in the
Service Center yard. The truck's dispenser nozzles are equipped
with automatic shut-off devices. The tanker is filled from the
underground fuel tanks and is equipped with automatic shut-off
devices to prevent over-filling. The Garage Foreman is
responsible for the tanker truck and its contents. When not in
use, the truck is stored on a paved parking area southeast of
the Garage Building.

gallons.
A maintenance inspection is performed twice
a year. The tanker is checked visually by
the operator before each use. '
iv) ,Hose Leakage: Hoses on the truck would crack and seep
before a complete severing would occur.
The leakage would be noticed during
pumping, and would stop when the pump
stopped. The maximum volume of fuel that
could reasonably be expected to discharge
would be approximately one to two gallons.
.
4) Drum Storage
. 55-gallon drums of petroleum products are stored at several
locations at this facility. All 55-gallon drums used for storage
are DOT Spec. 17E Drums.

4C. SECURITY
This section describes the basic security controls and procedures in place at the
facility.
The service center is surrounded by a 6-foot-high, chain-link fence topped with
barbed wire. The yard perimeter and interior are fully illuminated at dusk by
automatic lights. There are six gates located around the yard's perimeter which
remain open from 6 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday except Gate #6 which is
locked at all time. All gates are locked'after 6 p.m. and on weekends and
holidays. All buildings are locked after-hours.
The fence perimeter is checked for unauthorized entry by the Building Supervisor
each morning. Inspections include checking the integrity of the fence and gates
(bent or cut wires, holes under fen etc.).
In cases of weekend or after-hours, employees entering or leaving the facility
buildings re-lock all gates and doors. All employees are instructed to watch
for strangers at the facility and question them regarding any unusual activity.
PG&E/s Security Manual details standard PG&E security measures and is issued
to each facility supervisor.

4D. TRAINING
PG&E has two complementary training programs that address the proper handling and
management of hazardous materials and wastes at Company facilities. The training
programs meet the employee training requirements of both federal and state
regulations as they apply to Hazardous Waste Contingency Plans (40 CFR 265 and CAC
Title 22) and Hazardous Materials Business Plans (CAC Title 19).
1. Hazardous Materials Use and Handling:
In accordance with California Title 8 "Worker Right-to-Know" requirements and
the provisions of Title 19 of the California Administrative Code (AB 2185),
PG&E's Safety, Health and Claims Department oversees training on hazardous
materials in use at Company facilities.
·
Employees in each department or facility receive "Right to Know" instruction
and additional training on specific substances or classes of toxic or
hazardous chemicals they use. "Right to Know" instruction is given by the
supervisor or by the Safety Engineering Representative. Training on specific
toxic or hazardous chemicals is given by the Safety Engineering
Representative, an Industrial Hygienist, or other technically qualified
personnel who, because of education, training, or experience, understand the
health risks and necessary safety precautions associated with èach toxic or
hazardous substance. Supervisors document both types of training by
maintaining a signed training roster.
2.
Hazardous Waste Management:
PG&E's hazardous waste management training program provides consistent
company-wide guidance on proper handling of hazardous materials and wastes.
Each facility determines which employees need this training in relation to
their job duties.
The training modules include an eight- to fifteen-minute videotape
presentation, a question and answer session, optional classroom exercises,
and a self-paced examination. The training modules in this program include:
1. Introduction to Hazardous Waste Management
2. Hazardous Waste Identification
3. ,Hazardous Waste Storage Areas
4. Hazardous Waste Packaging and Labeling
5. Hazardous Waste Manifests

5. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCEDURES
We always try to do all work and transportation activities at a facility in a
safe and legal manner, but events may occur which could result in an accident
or emergency situation. For these emergencies, it is important that
appropriate actions be taken by the involved employees to minimize any possible
bad effects.
An emergency situation may include a spill or leak, fire, explosion, equipment'
failure, vehicle accidents, a chemical reaction, natural disaster and employee
exposure, accident, injury or other mishap.
The emergency procedures presented in this section give, in order, the basic .
steps to be followed for the "average" emergericy situation. For some "average"
emergency situations and more severe emergencies, arrangements for acquiring
outside, additional assistance have been made by the' Facility Emergency
Coordinator. (See Section 4E of this plan.)
Here is a brief summary of the basic response actions that should be taken in
an emergency situation:
1. In a fire event, immediately call the local Fire Department (or 911).
2. Take care of any injured; call paramedics or an ambulance for help.
3. Call the Facility Emergency Coordinator or Facility Supervisor.
4. Identify the cause of the emergency and IF IT CAN BE DONE SAFELY, take
actions to prevent the situation from worsening.
a. Use personal protective clothing and equipment.
b. Fight only small fires.
c. Remove sources of ignition.
d. Close valves, or containers.
e. Dike, divert, or absorb liquids.
f. Cover or suppress emissions (using soil,water, foam, plastic,
etc.).
g. Protect storm drains and sewers.
h. Turn off building ventilation systems.
i. As appropriate, protect the environment and property.
j. Mark areas to warn others, restrict access, and prevent accidental
contamination or track-out.

why). Use the Scene-Management Checklist in Section 8 for this
purpose.
6. Provide assistance to emergency personnel as appropriate.
The emergency procedures presented in this plan cover responding to a fire,
spill, underground tank leak, earthquake, flood, and bomb threat. Each
procedure contains the required notification ,and reporting requirements.
