The certification shall be submitted according to the following format;

“I certify, to the best of my knowledge and belief, under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California, that the information contained in this contingency plan is true and correct and that the plan is both feasible and executable.”

______________________________ (signature), (title), (date);

(E) The California Certificate of Financial Responsibility (COFR) number for the marine facility shall be included in the front of the plan. If the COFR is not available when the plan is submitted because the marine facility is not yet operational, the COFR number must be provided as soon as it becomes available. The COFR number must be provided before the plan can be approved.

(2) Each plan shall identify a Qualified Individual, as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision, and any alternates that may be necessary for the purpose of implementing the plan. If the plan holder contracts for this service, documentation that the Qualified Individual or company, and any identified alternates, acknowledge this capacity shall be included in the plan. If an alternate or alternates are identified in the plan, then the plan shall also describe the process by which responsibility will be transferred from the Qualified Individual to an alternate. During spill response activities, notification of such a transfer must be made to the State Incident Commander at the time it occurs.

(3) Each plan shall provide the name, address, telephone number and facsimile number of an agent for service of process designated to receive legal documents on behalf of the plan holder. If the plan holder contracts for this service, documentation that the agent for service of process acknowledges this capacity shall be included in the plan. Such agent shall be located in California.

(4) Each plan shall identify and ensure by contract or other approved means a certified Spill Management Team, as described in subchapter 5 of this chapter. The certified spill management team shall be the appropriate tier classification pursuant to section 830.3 of subchapter 5.

(A) The spill management team may have an interim certification for purposes of satisfying contingency plan requirements.

(B) A single spill management team may be listed if it is capable of responding in all geographic regions in which the plan holder operates.

(C) The spill management team may consist of personnel employed by the plan holder or persons affiliated with the plan holder, contracted personnel, or a combination thereof.

(D) If the plan holder contracts for these services, documentation that the certified Spill Management Team acknowledges this capacity shall be included in the plan.

(5) Each plan shall contain evidence of the contract or other approved means (as defined in Section 790 of this subdivision) verifying that any oil spill response organization(s) that are named in the plan will provide the requisite equipment and personnel in the event of an oil spill. This requirement can be met by a copy of the basic written agreement with an abstract of the recovery and/or cleanup capacities covered by the contract. Plan holders shall only contract with an OSRO(s) that has received a Rating by OSPR (as specified in Section 819 of this subchapter) for the booming, on-water recovery and storage, and shoreline protection services required.

(E) logistical resources within the geographic region covered by the plan, including facilities for fire services, medical services, and accommodations for spill response personnel; and

(F) shoreline access area, including piers, docks, boat launches and equipment and personnel staging areas.

Each plan shall address prevention measures in order to reduce the possibility of an oil spill occurring as a result of the operation of the marine facility. The prevention measures must eliminate or mitigate all the hazards identified in the Risk and Hazard Analysis.

(1) Risk and Hazard Analysis

(A) Each marine facility shall conduct a Risk and Hazard Analysis to identify the hazards associated with the operation of the facility, including: operator error, the use of the facility by various types of vessels, equipment failure, and external events likely to cause an oil spill.

The owner/operator may use one or more of the hazard evaluation methods identified by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, or an equivalent method, including, but not limited to:

1. What-if analysis;

2. Checklist analysis;

3. Preliminary hazard analysis;

4. Hazard and operability study;

5. Failure mode and effect analysis; or

6. Fault tree analysis.

(B) The chosen hazard evaluation method must be conducted in accordance with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers as published in the “Guidelines for Hazard Evaluation Procedures”, second edition, copyright 1992, prepared for The Center For Chemical Process Safety.

1. The plan must include information regarding the expertise of the working group that develops the analysis.

2. The plan must include information that demonstrates to the Administrator that the analysis is appropriate to the marine facility and adequate according to the published procedures referenced in (B) above.

3. An owner/operator may be found in violation of this section if the Risk and Hazard Analysis does not adequately address the risks posed by the marine facility.

4. The Administrator may require that an analysis be updated if there are significant changes made to the marine facility. A significant change, as used in this paragraph, is one that would have an impact on the outcome of the Risk and Hazard Analysis.

5. Additional information regarding the analysis method used or the working group that conducted the analysis shall be made available to the Administrator upon request.

(C) Each plan shall include a summary of the results of the risk and hazard analysis. The summary shall include the following:

1. the hazard analysis method used, and a statement that the analysis is specific to the marine facility. If the analysis relies on a risk assessment at a similar facility, the summary shall specify how the two facilities are comparable;

2. an inventory of the hazards identified, including the hazards that resulted in the historical spills;

3. an analysis of the potential oil discharges, including the size, frequency, cause, duration and location of all significant spills from the marine facility as a result of each major type of hazard identified;

4. the control measures that will be used to mitigate or eliminate the hazards identified. The plan shall include timeframes for implementing any control measures that cannot be functional immediately; and

5. a prediction of the potential oil spills that might still be expected to occur after any mitigating controls have been implemented.

(D) All supporting documentation used to develop the Risk and Hazard Analysis summary shall be made available to the Administrator upon request.

(2) Off-Site Consequence Analysis

For the significant hazards identified in the Risk and Hazard Analysis required under this section, the marine facility shall conduct a trajectory analysis to determine the Off-Site Consequences of an oil spill. This analysis shall assume pessimistic water and air dispersion and other adverse environmental conditions such that the worst possible dispersion of the oil into the air or onto the water will be considered. This analysis is intended to be used as the basis for determining the areas and shoreline types for which response strategies must be developed. Some of the information required in this subsection may be drawn from the appropriate Area Contingency Plans, completed by the U.S. Coast Guard, State Agencies, and Local Governments pursuant to the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. (Note: where maps/diagrams are required they may be submitted on electronic media, in Portable Document Format (PDF)). The analysis, which shall be summarized in the plan, shall include at least the following:

(A) a trajectory, or series of trajectories (for pipelines, etc.), to determine the potential direction, rate of flow and time of travel of the reasonable worst case oil spill from the facility to marine waters and to the shorelines, including shallow-water environments, that may be impacted. For purposes of this requirement, a trajectory or trajectories (projected for a minimum of 72 hours) that determine the outer perimeter of a spill, based on regional extremes of climate, tides, currents and wind with consideration to seasonal differences, shall be sufficient;

(B) for each probable shoreline that may be impacted, a discussion of the general toxicity effects and persistence of the discharge based on type of product; the effect of seasonal conditions on sensitivity of these areas; and an identification of which areas will be given priority attention if a spill occurs.

(3) Resources at Risk from Oil Spills

Based on the trajectory of the spilled oil as determined in the Off-Site Consequence Analysis, each plan shall identify the environmentally, economically and culturally sensitive sites that may be impacted. Each plan shall identify and provide a map of the locations of these areas. Some of the information required in this subsection may be drawn from the appropriate Area Contingency Plans, completed by the U.S. Coast Guard, State Agencies, and Local Governments pursuant to the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. (Note: where maps/diagrams are required they may be submitted on electronic media, in Portable Document Format (PDF)).

(A) The map of environmentally sensitive sites shall include:

1. shoreline types and associated marine resources;

2. the presence of migratory and resident marine bird and mammal migration routes, and breeding, nursery, stopover, haul-out, and population concentration areas by season;

3. the presence of aquatic resources including marine fish, invertebrates, and plants including important spawning, migratory, nursery and foraging areas;

4. the presence of natural terrestrial animal and plant resources in marine-associated environments;

5. the presence of state or federally-listed rare, threatened or endangered species;

6. the presence of commercial and recreational fisheries including aquaculture sites, kelp leases and other harvest areas.

(B) The map of the locations of economically and culturally sensitive sites shall include:

1. public beaches, parks, marinas, boat ramps and diving areas;

2. industrial and drinking water intakes, power plants, salt pond intakes, and other similarly situated underwater structures;

3. off-shore oil and gas leases and associated drilling/production platforms;

4. known historical and archaeological sites. If a plan holder has access to any confidential archaeological information, it must be submitted as a separate item and will be handled as confidential information as described in section 790.3 of chapter 1.

5. areas of cultural or economic significance to Native Americans; and

6. the major waterways and vessel traffic patterns that are likely to be impacted.

(4) Required Prevention Measures

Each marine facility shall take all prevention measures to reduce or mitigate the potential hazards identified in the Risk and Hazard Analysis, and the potential impact those hazards pose to the resources at risk. Each plan shall include the following:

(A) schedules, methods and procedures for testing, maintaining and inspecting pipelines and other structures within or appurtenant to the marine facility that contain or handle oil which may impact marine waters if a failure occurs. Any information developed in compliance with Title 30 CFR, Part 250.153; Title 33 CFR, Part 154; Title 49 CFR, Part 195; and/or Title 5, Division 1, Part 1, Chapter 5.5, Sections 51010 through 51019.1 of the Government Code may be substituted for all or part of any comparable prevention measures required by this subsection.

(B) methods to reduce spills during transfer and storage operations, including overfill prevention measures and immediate spill containment provisions. Any information developed in compliance with Title 2, CCR, Division 3, Chapter 1, Article 5, Sections 2300-2407; Title 30 CFR, Part 250.154; and/or Title 33 CFR, Parts 154 and 156 may be substituted for all or part of any comparable prevention measures required by this subsection.

(C) procedures to assure clear communication among all the parties involved during transfer operations. Any information developed in compliance with Title 2, CCR, Division 3, Chapter 1, Article 5; Title 14, CCR, Division 1, Subdivision 4, Chapter 3, Subchapter 6; and/or Title 33 CFR, Parts 154 and 156 may be substituted for all or part of any comparable prevention measures required by this subsection;

(D) protection measures for areas within the marine facility that are subject to flooding;

(E) the plan holder shall provide additional relevant information to the Administrator upon request.

(d) Containment Booming and On-water Recovery

Each plan holder must have a contract or other approved means for containment booming and on-water recovery response resources up to their Response Planning Volume for all potential oil spills from the marine facility. To determine the amount of response resources for containment booming and on-water recovery, each plan holder must calculate a Response Planning Volume as outlined below:

(1) Reasonable Worst Case Spill

To calculate the Response Planning Volume, it is first necessary to determine the reasonable worst case spill for each marine facility, as follows:

(A) For marine facilities (except on-shore pipelines (not subject to Chapter 6.67 (commencing with Section 25270) or Chapter 6.7 (commencing with Section 25280) of Division 20, Health and Safety Code) which are addressed in Subsection (B), offshore platforms which are addressed in Subsections (C) and (D), and offshore pipelines which are addressed in Subsection (E):

1. the loss of the entire capacity of all in-line, break-out and portable storage tank(s), not subject to Chapter 6.67 (commencing with Section 25270) or Chapter 6.7 (commencing with Section 25280) of Division 20, Health and Safety Code, needed for the continuous operation of the pipelines used for the purposes of handling or transporting oil, taking into account the existence of volume limiting factors including, but not limited to, line pressure, gravity, and the availability and location of the emergency shut-off controls; plus

2. the amount of additional spillage that could reasonably be expected to enter California marine waters during emergency shut-off, transfer or pumping operations if a hose(s) or pipeline(s) ruptures or becomes disconnected, or if some other incident occurs which could cause or increase the size of an oil spill. The spillage shall be calculated as follows: the maximum time to discover the release from the pipe or hose in hours, plus the maximum time to shut down flow from the pipe or hose in hours (based on historic discharge data or the best estimate in absence of historic discharge data for the marine facility) multiplied by the maximum flow rate expressed in barrels per hour (based on the maximum relief valve setting or maximum system pressure when relief valves are not provided) plus the total linefill drainage volume expressed in barrels.

3. The Administrator has the discretion to accept that a marine facility can operate only a limited number of the total pipelines at a time. In those circumstances, the reasonable worst case spill volume shall include the drainage volume from the piping normally not in use, in addition to the volume determined in (1) and (2), above.

(B) For on-shore pipelines not subject to Chapter 6.67 (commencing with Section 25270) or Chapter 6.7 (commencing with Section 25280) of Division 20, Health and Safety Code, the largest volume in barrels, of the following:

1. The pipeline's maximum release time in hours (i.e., the time between pipeline rupture and discovery), plus the maximum shut-down response time in hours (based on historic discharge data or in the absence of such historic data, the operator's best estimate), multiplied by the maximum flow rate expressed in barrels per hour (based on the maximum daily capacity of the pipeline), plus the largest line drainage volume after shutdown of the line section(s) in the response zone expressed in barrels. (As used in this subsection: line section means a continuous run of pipe that is contained between adjacent pressure pump stations, between a pressure pump station and a terminal or break-out tank, between a pressures pump station and a block valve, or between adjacent block valves; response zone means a geographic region either along a length of pipeline or including multiple pipelines, containing one or more adjacent line sections, for which the operator must plan for the deployment of, and provide spill response capabilities. The size of the zone is determined by the operator after considering available capabilities, resources, and geographic characteristics); or

2. The largest foreseeable discharge for the line section(s) within a response zone, expressed in barrels, based on the maximum historic discharge, if one exists, adjusted for any subsequent corrective or preventive action taken; or

3. If the response zone contains one or more break-out tanks, the capacity of the single largest tank or battery of tanks within a single secondary containment system, adjusted for the capacity or size of the secondary containment system, expressed in barrels.

1. total tank storage and flow line capacity; plus

2. that portion of the total linefill capacity which could be lost during a spill, taking into account the availability and location of the emergency shut-off controls and the effect of hydrostatic pressure; plus

3. the amount of additional spillage that could reasonably be expected to enter marine waters during emergency shut-off, transfer or pumping operations if a hose or pipeline ruptures or becomes disconnected, or some other incident occurs which could cause or increase the size of an oil spill. The calculation may take into consideration other safety devices, emergency reaction times and maximum transfer rates; plus

4. the daily production volume for thirty (30) days from an uncontrolled blowout of the highest capacity well associated with the marine facility. In determining the daily discharge rate, the reservoir characteristics, casing/production tubing sizes, and historical production and reservoir pressure data shall be taken into consideration.

(D) For offshore platforms with active well drilling:

The owner/operator of a platform at which a new well is being drilled must submit a proposed reasonable worst case oil spill calculation for platform operations to the Administrator. The proposed worst case discharge is the daily volume possible for thirty (30) days from an uncontrolled blowout taking into consideration any known reservoir characteristics. The proposed calculation will be reviewed by the Administrator during the plan review and approval process to determine if it adequately addresses the oil spill potential of the new well system.

(E) For offshore pipelines, the largest volume in barrels of the following calculation:

1. The pipeline system leak detection time, plus the shutdown response time, multiplied by the highest measured oil flow rate over the preceding 12-month period. For new pipelines, use the predicted oil flow rate. Add to this calculation the total volume of oil that would leak from the pipeline after it is shut in. This volume should be calculated by taking into account the effects of hydrostatic pressure, gravity, frictional wall forces, length of pipeline segment, tie-ins with other pipelines, and other factors.

(F) The calculations, and such parameters as flow rates, linefill capacities and emergency shutoff times, that are used to determine a marine facility's reasonable worst case spill shall be submitted as part of the plan. The Administrator may review and test these parameters as part of the drill conducted in accordance with Subsection 816.03(b).

(2) Persistence and Emulsification Factors

(A) The reasonable worst case spill volume is then multiplied by a persistence factor relative to the most persistent type of oil that may be spilled by the marine facility. The persistence factors relative to the type of oil spilled, are specified below:

Oil Group	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Persistence Multiplier	.20	.50	.50	.50

(B) Emulsification Factors

The volume determined from the calculation in Subparagraph (A) is then multiplied by one of the following emulsification factors, again, based on the type of oil.

Oil Group	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Emulsification Multiplier	1.0	1.8	2.0	1.4

The total determined by the above calculation is a Response Planning Volume.

1. The Response Planning Volume to be used to determine the amount of Response Equipment and Services that must be under contract or other approved means shall be the greater of the amount determined in Subsection 817.02(d)(1) and (2), or the Planning Volume for On-water Recovery calculated for the nearshore/inland environment in the marine facility's federal response plan pursuant to 33 CFR Part 154, Appendix C, Section 7. The Planning Volume for On-Water Recovery is the adjusted volume from the federal calculation determined prior to establishing the response tiers utilizing the mobilization factors.

2. All calculations used to determine the Response Planning Volume shall be included in the plan.

(3) Response Capability Standards

The equipment and personnel necessary to address the Response Planning Volume is brought to the scene of the spill over a period of time. The timeframes are dependent upon the risk zone in which the marine facility is located and are specified in the tables in this section.

The standards set forth in this section are only planning standards and may not reflect the exigencies of actual spill response. However, these are the standards that must be used to determine the amount of equipment and personnel that must be under contract or other approved means. Response resources in addition to those under contract must be identified, and a call-out procedure in place to access this equipment, if the marine facility has a spill that exceeds the Response Planning Volumes. The owner/operator is ultimately responsible for addressing the entire volume of an actual spill regardless of the planning volume.

(A) On-Water Daily Recovery Rates and Containment Boom Amounts

1. The total amount of on-water recovery equipment and services required shall be the lesser of the amount necessary to address the Response Planning Volume determined in Section 817.02(d)(2)(C) or the Daily Recovery Rate established by this Section at 817.02(d)(3)(B) below.

2. The amount of response resources and the timeframes for delivery are specified in Subsection 817.02(d)(3)(B) below. The barrels per day capability figure is the total amount of on-water recovery equipment that must be at the scene of the spill at the hour specified which is measured from the time of notification, as described in this subchapter. All on-water recovery response resources shall be capable of being deployed and operable within one hour of arrival at the scene of the spill or drill but no later than the designated timeframe for each risk zone.

3. The timeframes for equipment delivery and deployment as specified in this subsection do not take into account the time required to conduct a health and safety assessment of the site as set forth in Subsection 817.02(f)(8), and as required by the California Occupational and Safety Administration. In addition, these timeframes do not account for delays that may occur due to weather or seastate. The actual time necessary to deliver and deploy equipment will be assessed at the time of an incident or a drill and will take into account the prevailing conditions of weather and seastate, as well as the site assessment requirements.

(B) Daily Recovery Rate

1. Facilities located in High-Volume Ports

Delivery Time (Hrs)	6	24	36	60
Bbls/Day Capability	23,437	31,250	46,875	78,125

i. in addition, the facility/transfer points within the High Volume Ports must have 3,125 barrels/day, or 10% of the reasonable worst case spill volume, whichever is less, of on-water recovery capability that can be mobilized and on-scene within two hours of notification;

ii. if a facility/transfer point within a High Volume Port maintains and can immediately deploy containment equipment for a 3,125 barrel spill, or 10% of the reasonable worst case spill volume, whichever is less, the initial on-water recovery capability can be on-scene within three hours rather than two hours.

2. Facility/Transfer Areas and the Santa Barbara Channel Area

Delivery Time (Hrs)	12	36	60
Bbls/Day Capability	19,531	35,156	66,406

i. in addition, facility/transfer points within a Facility/Transfer Area and the Santa Barbara Channel Area must have 3,125 barrels/day, or 10% of the reasonable worst case spill volume, whichever is less, of on-water recovery capability that can be mobilized and on-scene within 2 hours of notification;

ii. if a facility/transfer point within a Facility/Transfer Area or the Santa Barbara Channel Area maintains and can immediately deploy containment equipment for a 3,125 barrel spill, or 10% of the reasonable worst case spill volume, whichever is less, the initial on-water recovery capability can be on-scene within three hours rather than two hours;

iii. for those points where transfers occur infrequently, and where there is not permanent equipment present, the 3,125 barrel/day, or 10% of the reasonable worst case spill volume, whichever is less, on-water recovery capability shall be brought to the site at the time of transfer;

iv. for infrequent transfers of non-persistent oil, the initial response requirement may be waived by application to the Administrator. The application for waiver must include a justification based on such factors as the location of the marine facility, proximity to response equipment, additional equipment in the immediate area, and the relative environmental sensitivity of the potential spill sites.

(C) Sufficient containment equipment shall be brought to the scene of the spill to address the daily recovery rates as designated in Section 817.02(d)(3)(B).

(D) The standards set forth in Subsection 817.02(d)(3)(B) were increased by a factor of 25% on July 1, 1997, and again on July 1, 2001. It was determined that this increase was feasible and necessary to meet the best achievable protection of the coast.

(E) The standards set forth in Subsection 817.02(d)(3)(B) will be reviewed by the Administrator to determine if increases to these amounts are feasible and necessary in order to meet the best achievable protection of the coast. The Administrator shall conduct a review and hold a public hearing prior to confirming the new standards to solicit input regarding the necessity of the proposed increase and any credits that may be allowed.

(4) Movement of Response Resources

There may be times when it is necessary to move response equipment from one risk zone to another in order to respond to a catastrophic oil spill. However, the Administrator needs to ensure that sufficient response resources are available to address a reasonable risk within each zone. Therefore, when equipment is needed from one risk zone which may impact the plan holder's on-water containment and recovery at the 6 hour level, the plan holder or OSRO shall make a request to the Administrator to temporarily reduce the Response Capability Standards set forth in (d)(3) above, before the equipment can be moved. The Administrator shall only grant such a request after determining that sufficient response resources are available to address a reasonable risk within the zone from where the response equipment is being considered for removal.

(5) On-Water Response Equipment and Services

(A) Each plan shall demonstrate that the marine facility owner/operator has under contract or other approved means (as defined in Section 790 of this subdivision), access to all the necessary response resources to comply with the Response Capability Standards established in Subsection 817.02(d)(3). The amount of response equipment required shall take into account the effective daily recovery capacity (EDRC, as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision) of the equipment.

(B) The equipment identified for a specific area must be appropriate for use in that area given the limitations of the geography, bathymetry, water depths, tides, currents and other local environmental conditions. For those areas that require shallow-water response capability (refer to the relevant Area Contingency Plan), the plan shall provide for an adequate number of shallow-draft vessels (as defined in Section 815.05 of this subchapter) and for adequate booming and other shoreline protective resources to be owned or under contract or other approved means and available to provide shoreline protection of all sensitive sites identified in the trajectory analysis conducted as part of the Off-site Consequence Analysis. Additionally, the equipment identified shall also be appropriate for use on the type of oil identified. To the extent that the following information is provided by a Rated OSRO, evidence of a contract or other approved means with a Rated OSRO will suffice:

1. the location, inventory and ownership of the equipment to be used to fulfill the response requirements of this subchapter;

2. a complete inventory of any nonmechanical response equipment and supplies, including the type and toxicity of each chemical agent, with procedures for storage and maintenance;

3. the type and capacity of storage and transfer equipment matched to the skimming capacity of the recovery systems;

4. the manufacturer's rated capacities and the operational characteristics for each major item of oil recovery equipment;

5. the effective daily recovery capacity (as defined in Chapter 1, Section 790 of this subdivision) for each major piece of on-water recovery equipment listed, as well as the effective daily recovery capacity for the skimming systems as a whole.

i. A request may be submitted to the Administrator to review the effective daily recovery capacity for a piece of equipment if it can be shown that the equipment has a different capacity than the derating factor allows.

ii. The Administrator's decision regarding a change in the effective daily recovery capacity for a piece of equipment will be issued as soon as administratively feasible.

6. vessels designated for oil recovery operations, including skimmer vessels and vessels designed to tow and deploy boom, and availability of shallow-draft vessels;

7. vessels of opportunity reasonably available for oil spill recovery operations, including availability of shallow-draft vessels, procedures to equip the vessels, inventory all equipment, and train personnel;

8. procedures for storage, maintenance, inspection and testing of spill response equipment under the immediate control of the operator;

9. sufficient equipment to track the movement of discharged oil, including aerial surveillance sufficient to direct skimming operations.

10. Each plan shall describe the personnel available to respond to an oil spill, including:

i. a list by job category including a job description for each type of spill response position needed as indicated in the spill response organization scheme;

ii. a match between personnel by job category, and the equipment proposed for use (including equipment appropriate for shallow-water environments), including the plan for mobilization of such personnel;

iii. sufficient personnel to maintain a response effort of at least 14 days.

11. Each plan shall describe procedures for the transport of required equipment, personnel and other resources to the spill site. The description shall include plans for alternative procedures during adverse environmental conditions. Adverse environmental conditions to be considered shall include:

i. adverse weather;

ii. sea states, tides, winds and currents;

iii. presence of debris or other obstacles; and

iv. any other known environmental conditions that could restrict response efforts.

(C) The name(s) of the marine facility's certified spill management personnel team as described in subchapter 5 of this chapter.

(1) Shoreline Response Planning Volume

Each plan shall demonstrate that the marine facility has access to all necessary equipment and services to address the response strategies appropriate to each shoreline that could potentially be impacted by a spill from the facility.

To determine the amount of equipment and services necessary a Response Planning Volume must be calculated as outlined below:

(A) Multiply the reasonable worst case spill for the marine facility, as calculated in Subsection 817.02(d)(1), by the appropriate persistence factor from the chart below for the most persistent type of oil that may be spilled:

Oil Group	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Persistence Multiplier	.20	.50	.50	.50

(B) Emulsification Factors

The volume determined from the calculation above is then multiplied by one of the following emulsification factors, again, based on the type of oil:

Oil Group	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Emulsification Multiplier	1.0	1.8	2.0	1.4

The total determined by this calculation is a Response Planning Volume.

1. The Response Planning Volume to be used to determine the amount of Response Equipment and Services that must be under contract shall be the greater of the amount determined in Subsection 817.02(e)(1), or the adjusted Planning Volume for onshore recovery calculated for the nearshore/inland environment in the facility's federal response plan pursuant to 33 CFR Part 154., Appendix C, Section 7.
