SPCC Infographic: Do You Need an Oil Spill Contingency Plan?

Federal guidelines have been established for minimum criteria for the development and implementation of state, local, and regional contingency plans. The plans are developed by state and local governments in consultation with private interests in order to ensure timely, efficient, coordinated, and effective action to minimize damage resulting from oil discharges.

Oil spill contingency plans must be developed and implemented in cases when an SPCC-regulated facility does not provide proper secondary containment.
