Title 18 . Environmental Conservation
Chapter 75 . Administrative Enforcement
Section 475. Notification of nonreadiness

18 AAC 75.475. Notification of nonreadiness

(a) All spill response and other equipment identified in the approved oil discharge prevention and contingency plan or nontank vessel plan to meet the response planning standards set out at 18 AAC 75.430 - 18 AAC 75.442 must be maintained in operational condition. Any equipment found not to be operating properly must be repaired or replaced immediately.

(b) Except for a transfer approved under 18 AAC 75.470, if a significant change occurs in, or is made to, any component of a plan that would diminish the plan holder's response capability, the plan holder shall, within 24 hours, notify the department in writing and provide a schedule for a prompt return to operational status. A facsimile delivered to the appropriate regional office will be considered written notice for purposes of this subsection. If the department finds that, as a result of the change, the plan holder is no longer able to execute the plan, it will take appropriate action under 18 AAC 75.490.

(c) Notwithstanding (a) and (b) of this section, removal or inactivation of any major response item for maintenance or repair must be approved by the department before removal or inactivation. A request under this subsection must be submitted at least 10 days before the scheduled action or as soon as possible for an unanticipated repair. The request must state what substitute or temporary measures will be taken to provide equivalent response capability, reduce the time out of service, or otherwise ensure that equivalent response capability is maintained.
