12. Covered Storage Weather-tight buildings expand storage and prevent rainwater from mixing with chemicals. Tip: Use a ramp for safe loading and unloading. RCRA 40 CFR 264.175 RCRA 40 CFR 262.34 (c) (1) NPDES 40 CFR 122.26 SPCC 40 CFR 112.7
13. Collapsible Storage Lightweight and transportable containment can be used for vehicles and drums. Tip: Attaching an oil-selective filter to the discharge port keeps the sump free of rainwater accumulation. RCRA 40 CFR 264.175 SPCC 40 CFR 112.7 NPDES 40 CFR 122.26
17. Loading Docks Kits contain a variety of absorbents to address the type and quantity of spill. Tip: Keep kit locations well marked and conduct regular inspection of contents. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 SPCC 40 CFR 112.7 (c) (1) (vii)
18.
19. Battery Storage Designate a specific area and provide secondary containment. Tip: Store acid neutralizing spill kits and proper PPE nearby. Eyewash stations are required. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178
20. Leaks & Drips Good housekeeping practices prevent slips and falls. Tip: Non-slip footwear should have a large area of contact with a soft tread and diverting channels. Tip: Socks quickly surround and absorb. Tip: Berms can be designed for drive over traffic. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22(a)
21. Fluid Maintenance Effective fluid change out procedures prevent spills. Tip: Use flexible funnels to control hard to reach plugs and filters. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22(a) NPDES 40 CFR 122.26
22.
23. Fluid Dispensing Fluid dispensing is a high risk area for both hazardous and non-hazardous spills. Tip: Flammables should be bonded and grounded during dispensing. Vents and faucets should be FM-approved. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106 NFPA 30
24. Fluid Dispensing Good housekeeping encourages the capture of leaks and drips at dispensing stations. Tip: Make sure that the pump seals and housing are compatible with the liquid being dispensed. SPCC 40 CFR 112.7 (c) NPDES 40 CFR 122.26

26. Waste Collection – Solid Reduce air pollutant emissions from storage containers with continuous gasket. Tip: Latching lids provide easy access for frequently opened and closed containers. EPA 40 CFR 264.1086 RCRA 40 CFR 262.34 (c) (1) NFPA 30
27.
28. Waste Collection – Liquid Hazardous waste can be collected in satellite accumulation drums in quantities of 55 gallons or less. Tip: Use a funnel with integral venting and overflow prevention to reduce spills. OSHA 29 CFR 264.1086 RCRA 40 CFR 262.34 (c) (1) RCRA 40 CFR 264.173
29.
30. Containment Sump capacity should contain 10% of the volume of containers or the total volume of the largest container, whichever is greater. Tip: Fluorinated polyethylene pallets provide greater chemical resistance. RCRA 40 CFR 264.175 SPCC 40 CFR 112.7 (c) NFPA 30
