§ 794. Multiple Vessels or Facilities Certifications.
Currentness
(a) A certificate shall be issued to the applicant for multiple tankers, tank barges, nontank vessels, or facilities listed on the completed application, following approval of the application by the Administrator.
(b) The total financial responsibility that must be demonstrated by an owner or operator with multiple small tank barges, marine facilities, inland facilities, small marine fueling facilities, mobile transfer units, nontank vessels, or vessels carrying oil as secondary cargo shall be based on the vessel or facility which poses the greatest financial risk during a spill as determined pursuant to section 791.7 of this chapter.
(c) If an oil spill occurs from one or more tanker, tank barge, nontank vessel, marine facility, or inland facility within or outside of California, which may cause the certificant to be liable for damages exceeding five percent of the total financial resources reflected by the certificate, then the Administrator shall:
(1) Immediately review the certificant's financial resources to determine the applicability of the certificate to the certificant's other vessels and facilities not associated with the spill, and notify the certificant of the results of the review prior to issuing a determination that the certificate is inapplicable to any vessel or facility not associated with the spill; and
(2) Where a determination is made that the certificate is inapplicable, provide the certificant reasonable time to modify affected operations; and
(3) Consider the certificate inapplicable to the certificant's other vessels or facilities not associated with the spill.
(d) An owner or operator with a certificate deemed inapplicable to the other vessels or facilities not associated with the spill, shall reapply for a certificate for any vessel or facility, vessel carrying oil as secondary cargo, marine facility, or inland facility not associated with the spill. Upon reapplication, the owner or operator shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Administrator that:
(1) The owner or operator has the amount of financial ability required pursuant to this chapter; and
(2) The owner or operator has the financial ability to pay all damages which arise or have arisen from the spill or spills which have occurred within the state.
