Spill Prevention Control & Countermeasures (SPCC) Training

Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) training is a program designed to educate employees and management on the proper measures to prevent, respond to and clean-up oil spills. The training provides the knowledge and skills needed to implement and maintain an SPCC plan, which is a requirement for facilities that store, transfer, use or consume oil and oil products.

The training typically includes:

• Overview of the regulations and requirements of the SPCC rule

• Information on the proper design, construction, and maintenance of secondary containment

• Procedures for preventing and responding to oil spills

• Information on how to properly document and record compliance with the SPCC rule

• Discussion of the types of oil and oil products that are covered under the rule and how to identify them

The main goal of SPCC training is to provide the knowledge and skills required to implement and maintain an SPCC plan and to prevent oil spills. The training helps organizations to comply with the regulations and to minimize the risk of oil spills that can have negative impact on the environment and human health.

SPCC training is a crucial step in the compliance process with the regulations and it is important that the training is conducted by a qualified professional and that the employees and management are trained on a regular basis to ensure that they are aware of the latest regulations and best practices.
