Case Study - EPA Compliance Inspections and Stormwater Management Plans

How to assess and maintain interim controls to reduce environmental pollution risks at your commercial premises.

In early 2022, approximately 12,000L of chemicals from an industrial facility filtered through a stormwater drain into Cherry Lake, Altona and as a result of the pollution killed hundreds of fish, eels and other wildlife. As a consequence of that incident, the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is targeting commercial premises in Melbourne West’s industrial areas by conducting compliance inspections and audits ensuring stormwater management plans are in place to prevent further pollution of local waterways and catchments.

McCarthy Plumbing Group has been engaged by businesses issued with EPA improvement notices and is working in collaboration with Environmental Consultants to ensure these businesses have stormwater management systems in place to ensure their operations will not cause harm to human health or the environment from pollution or waste from their trade wastewater. We are experienced stormwater management plan plumbers in Melbourne.

Assessing polluted stormwater hazards at industrial premises

When conducting compliance auditing, Environmental Protection Authority Authorised Officers follow a remedial powers process when enforcing the Environmental Protection Act (2017). Remedial tools used can include compliance advice (recorded in entry reports), improvement notices, prohibition notices, notice to investigate, environmental action notices, waste abatement notices, site management orders, directions and clean up powers. EPA remedial tools are distributed according to urgencies and risk of hazards to human health or the environment. Our clients have recently received compliance advice and improvement notices.

Every industrial site is different; thus every entry report and improvement notice will be different. However, the most common cause of risk of pollution to our waterways that we encounter is through contaminated wastewater discharging through stormwater drains beyond a premise’s boundary. This occurs when a stormwater pit is unprotected. EPA released a fact sheet that offers guidance in best practice prevention of stormwater pollution occurring; Preventing liquid leaks and spills from entering the environment.

The EPA promote the following steps when assessing an industrial premises for stormwater pollution hazards:

Identify the Risks

Identify all potential pollution leak or spill hazards

Identify risk reduction strategies

Prepare an incident management plan in case of emergency

Inform your team of the incident management processes

Site Management

Prevent leaks and spillage of chemicals

Contain them on your boundary (spill kit etc)

Contain outdoor areas ensuring only stormwater leaves the boundary

Divert all contaminated/polluted stormwater

Audit storage containers regularly

Maintain site management records

Liquid storage

Don’t store toxic chemicals near waterways, or on unsealed surfaces

Prevent spillages by utilizing secondary containment systems, these include bunds (raised walls, curbs, barriers etc) encasement (storing in sealed areas like other containers, larger sheds etc) and sealing surfaces (concrete, bunded pallets etc)

Non-compliance in stormwater management

Our clients were issued compliance advice and/or improvement notices due to the Authorised Officer believing that they ‘engaged in or proposes to engage in an activity that has caused or is likely to cause harm to human health or the environment from pollution or waste’. Examples of these activities included:

Turbid hydrocarbons discharging into stormwater drain

Unprotected stormwater pits

Unsealed surfaces for liquid storage

No bunding or secondary containment areas for liquid storage or trade wastewater

Inadequate surface water controls preventing discharge of pollution stormwater

Liquid storage too close to stormwater.

Interim Solutions provided by McCarthy Plumbing Group in conjunction with EPA and Environmental Consultants

When an improvement notice is given, the EPA Authorised Officer advises the recipient of the notice of requirements with deadlines. The requirements often include immediate interim controls, and the consultation of a suitably qualified person (Environmental Consultant). McCarthy Plumbing Group works as a ‘first responder’ when EPA improvement notices are given, then assists the business with actioning the long-term stormwater recommendations given by the Environment Consultant.  

After navigating the entry report, McCarthy Plumbing Group plumbers meet with the EPA Authorised Officer and our notice recipient client as a matter of urgency in order to determine the initial controls are managed; this ensures the EPA is satisfied that the client is taking the compliance notice seriously and wants to change their approach to stormwater control and environmental management.

An example of a recent interim control meeting with a Laverton North industrial business involved the implementation of a 5-step plan within 3 days of the notice to satisfy the EPA’s direction to ‘immediately maintain interim controls’;

Locate Storm water legal point of discharge (LPoD) and map out all stormwater pits and pipework within property (37,500 square metre site)

Temporarily cap-off legal point of discharge and hydro-jet clean all pits & pipework collecting all silt, debris and contaminated water within intermediate bulk containers (IBC’s)

Engage an EPA approved contractor to collect the contaminated waste and dispose of waste at an EPA approved facility and provide receipts of all removal.

Map out site and storm water pit locations and surface water draining zones to include in the provisional storm water control plan.

Provide a temporary stormwater control plan until a permanent plan has been mapped out and approved by the EPA/Environmental Consultant

After the interim control phase, McCarthy Plumbing Group then works in conjunction with the Environment Consultant to action all stormwater management plan preventative activities.

Various factors needed to be taken into consideration for the completion of the environment stormwater management plan and pollution control measures including:

Industry of operation and usage

Products passing through the site

Site size and limitations

Current storage of products

Bunding installed on site

Current stormwater network and condition.

Stormwater management plans and their hazard controls are never a ‘one size fits all’ and differ from business to business. Often, changing the way a site operates and creating zones for different usages can reduce the overall upgrade requirements needed to comply with the EPA regulations and compliance notices. Working in collaboration, and effectively communicating with the Authorised Officer and Environmental Consultant regarding the plumbing and stormwater system is key to a successful outcome to the environment, the EPA and the client.  

The end game for everyone is for no contaminated wastewater to ever leave a premises boundary, thus no likely harm caused to human health or the environment from pollution. If appropriate assessment, containment and clean up of spills and leaks to prevent pollution of a stormwater system has occurred, then the stormwater management plan is doing its job.

Reporting an incident to the EPA

If you have encountered a chemical spill or leak at your premises you should report the incident which could harm the environment. You need to stop the spill, contain the spill, report it to the EPA by calling 1300 372 842 then clean up the spill appropriately.

I’ve been issued with an EPA Improvement notice, what do I do now?

McCarthy Plumbing Group will act as ‘first responders’ in assisting you with assessing and maintaining interim controls giving to you by the EPA Authorised Officer. These controls may include capping of legal points of discharge to the stormwater outside of your boundary, educt and clean contaminated stormwater pits, assist in nominating an Environmental Consultant, clear stormwater pipes for assessment with a hydro-jet, assess stormwater collection using CCTV drain cameras, and give general plumbing and stormwater advice.  

We can then assist your chosen Environmental Consultant to action the tasks in your stormwater management plan including engineer control to stop trade wastewater discharging beyond the boundary of the premises, design a stormwater management system (this can include preparation of groundworks/sealing, surface water controls, flow directions, drainage, sumps, pumps, valves, retention volumes, pipelines, legal point of discharge and attenuation systems.

If you have received an EPA improvement notice, compliance notice or any other remedial notice and require assistance in navigating the requirements to achieve compliance, McCarthy Plumbing Group can assist in preventing further water pollution occurring from your site by assessing and controlling risks to stormwater drains past your legal point of discharge.  

We are situated in the Laverton North industrial area in close proximity to Kororoit Creek, Ryans Creek and Cherry Lake and are geographically central in location to assist businesses across Melbourne’s west and inner suburbs in ensuring stormwater management system compliancy.

Things to Know About AHCCHM training Central Coast

Prudent execution of experiments requires sound judgment and an accurate assessment of the risks involved in the laboratory and the selection of appropriate work practices to reduce risk and protect the safety and health of personnel, the general public, and the environment.

 The AHCCHM training Central Coast introduces the safe use of chemicals in the workplace, presents classification systems for the labeling and transport of dangerous goods, enables the reading and use of chemical safety cards, and provides an introduction to toxicology and disseminates information on a selection of widely used hazardous substances.

 Awareness. The chemical safety training program should begin by educating employees and contractors about the chemical characteristics of the materials and chemicals. In addition to the actual dangers of chemical exposure, your training should include a discussion of individual obligations under law. By the end of the AHCCHM training Central Coast, the employees should be aware of all physical and health concerns posed by the substances and their potential impact on their safety and health. It is crucial to read Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), chemical labels, and placards to quickly identify information on risks, personal protective equipment (PPE), storage and handling, emergency responses, and first aid treatment. Which substances and materials are incompatible with the chemicals being employed, and the kind of hazardous reactions may occur. Legislation and Safety Standards mandate careful handling and storage procedures.

 Safety. In AHCCHM training Central Coast, the control mechanisms employed in the workplace to remove or mitigate chemical hazards should be outlined. This form of training should be conducted in workgroups and include one-on-one instruction as workers demonstrate their proficiency in various job duties. A recent safety assessment uncovered, for instance, a stack of Class 8 corrosive containers piled on a bundling pallet. The containers are inadequately secured and could topple easily, while the pallet bund is overcrowded and incapable of containing a spill. There is no spill kit present. Now, your training session focuses on the control measures you've implemented. Specifically, you would address the following: the consequences of the container stacks falling and the inability of the bunding to contain a spill; the specific procedures for receiving stocks from suppliers; and the maximum quantities to be stored on pallets in work areas.

 Response. If chemicals are accidentally discharged or spilled, the employees should know what to do. The workshop should focus on exposure dangers and urgent threats to the health of employees, visitors, workplace property, and the environment. Also, the PPE is required for the spill area. Isolating and containing the spill site while notifying supervisors and management. Cleaning up the spill and properly disposing of the discarded chemicals and broken containers. Training personnel to respond to a chemical emergency is required and must be divided into three distinct areas. AHCCHM training Central Coast

focuses on a chemical incident, accident, or trouble that directly affects the worker, such as caustic chemicals spilling into their clothes and penetrating their boots and gloves. Workers require instructions on how to use first aid equipment, safety showers, and eyewash stations to treat themselves and alert supervisors, management, and emergency services. A coworker emergency response to an accident or chemical emergency in which another worker is injured. It could be in their work area or someplace else on the job site. In addition to utilizing emergency equipment to administer first aid to a coworker or contractor, the training will emphasize informing and coordinating with emergency responders. In a Facility emergency, the employee's responsibility is during a chemical crisis that affects a big area or the entire site. This training includes exercises in emergency response, fire protection, and evacuation. Workers may be required to utilize emergency PPE breathing apparatus and have the duty to shut down all machinery and equipment. All of these should be covered throughout AHCCHM training Central Coast.

TYPES OF STORAGE TANKS

Oil and petroleum storage tanks are available in various types, materials, shapes and sizes are used from the initial production of crude oil, to the refining and distribution of various petroleum oil products. Many changes and variations took place in the manufacturing of these storage tanks over the years and the modern oil storage tanks are made of plastic, reinforced concrete, stainless steel, carbon steel, or even carved on mostly impermeable rock salt deposits for underground oil storage. As earlier said that over the years, various types of oil storage tanks have been developed which includes:

Floating Roof Tank: As its name defines, this type of tank has a floating roof that rises or falls according to the oil level in the tank. The floating roof is actually a safety feature to prevent vapor build-up inside the tank.

Fixed Roof Tank: Next is the fixed roof tank which doesn’t expose the oil it stores and is used to hold lower volumes of oil products compared to those in tanks with floating roofs.

Open Top Tank: This type of tank was one of the early types of oil storage tanks. It has limited use now because of evaporation losses and the risk that oil will catch fire.

Single Skin and Double Skin Tanks: These are tanks with one layer or two layers of steel or plastic respectively. A double skin tank is also called a twin-walled tank.

Bunded Tank: A bunded tank is a tank enclosed by another tank or a tank with a containment dike around it. The outer tank or containment dike serves as the catch system to prevent oil spills, leakages or other oil contamination from spreading to the surroundings.

These can vary in many different shapes and sizes depending on the amount of chemicals that require to be kept. Fitted with doors as well as a lock, you can bask in understanding that your chemicals are safely safeguarded.

Chemical Storage: Pesticide storage units can be used for storing chemicals as well as hazardous agri-chemicals. These need to be fitted with lockable doors and also have an air flow system such as panels. Pesticide storage systems may need to be fitted with temperature control systems. Executed alongside ice o lator containers, a bund is another preventive measure that can be taken in the technique of risk-free chemical storage 1p lsd. Bunds as well as spill trays are taken into area in case of spillage. The bund or tray is normally huge enough to hold the very same amount of product as the container offering a secure room for the spillage or leak of the materials of the container. Whether functioning as a lab technician in a chemical plant or a science instructor in an institution, just how you keep the chemicals you utilize is important to your security and also those around you. When carried out, the practice of secure chemical storage is both very easy as well as necessary to abide by.

Agricultural Storage Solutions

Whether you are an agricultural supplier or a farmer, you require a storage solution for your agricultural products. From farming tools to machinery, chemicals to produce, there are a wide range of materials that need to be stored when working in an agricultural setting. Agricultural storage also needs to be dynamic so products can be easily picked and moved during peak seasons, and safely stored away for long periods of time afterwards. These factors can make creating the perfect storage solution for your business difficult, but with the right shelving and equipment you can make your storage space the most space efficient and easily manageable in town. See below for our favourite agricultural storage options.

1. Pallet Racking

Anyone who is wanting to get the most out of their agricultural storage space would benefit from looking into a dynamic solution such as pallet racking. When storing large quantities on pallets, pallet racking is a fantastic option if you want to efficiently use your space and allow the easy picking of products. A well-designed pallet racking system will maximise the storage area in your shed or warehouse as it allows for floor to ceiling storage and can be made to fit into any space. Pallet racking can take a lot of product because it can take a lot of weight, but no matter how much it takes on, these systems still allow you to pick and move stock quickly and easily.

2. Stock Picking Trolleys

Having stock picking trolleys is a necessity for any large storage space if you want to at some point move stock around, so it is important you purchase trolleys that suit your needs and will remain in good working condition for a long time. The perfect trolley will be large enough to fit the stock you want to move, manoeuvrable enough to be able to zip between shelves, and sturdy enough to trust it when moving precious cargo. Once  you have identified the trolley you need, make sure you have more than one to eliminate the need to wait while loading and unloading trolleys, this will maximise efficiency.

3. Longspan Shelving

If you are wanting versatility in your storage options, then longspan shelving is the way to go. Available with mesh, steel or timber shelves, a longspan shelving system is capable of holding stock of all shapes, sizes and weights. Able to be reconfigured to fit any space, longspan shelves are able to change to suit your storage needs. As someone who works in the agricultural industry, you are well aware of how storage needs change along with the seasons, this is why having flexible, heavy-duty shelving is a must in any cleverly designed agricultural storage space.

4. Bunding

Many liquid chemicals stored on site are required by law to be safely bunded, so an appropriate agricultural storage area should always include a bunding system. Depending on what is required of the liquids being stored, there are multiple storage solutions you can consider.

Bunded shelving: For compact storage of high-use chemicals on-site you cannot look past bunded shelving. Shelving meets all the requirements for safe chemical storage, while also allowing the chemicals to remain easily seen and accessed.

Low profile bund system: A low profile bund system is ideal for the storage of drums requiring frequent handling, by staying close to the ground this storage option ensures an easy process for loading and unloading drums.

Bunded pallets: For chemicals requiring frequent moving around the site or between sites, bunded pallets offer the perfect solution. With heaps of containment capacity, these pallets are nestable for safe transport and forklift pockets for easy relocation.

Tri-bunding: Safe bunding in a high-traffic area requires the tri-bund – the most flexible and cost-effective bunding system in Australia. This bunding can take a knock, will return to its original shape after being driven over, and prevents spills from travelling into or out of protected areas.

Top Reasons Why You Need A Bunded Pallet

Using a bunded pallet or containment pallet as some people call them is an important safety measure and now required by Australian work safe regulations when storing or using bulk chemicals. Using a bunded pallet will ensure that in the event any type of hazardous liquid or dry chemical spill, either while these items are in storage, being transported, processed or while being used in manufacturing, that any spill is contained and easily dealt with.

A bunded pallet can eliminate the possibility of adverse chemical reactions taking place because chemicals spill and mix with other chemicals. They are also very effective in stopping chemicals escaping into the environment causing damage to people, property and polluting the environment.

Bunded pallets are designed with the ability to contain at least 110% of the capacity of the largest package that can be stored on them. Made to be able to withstand the elements, bonded pallets are suitable for outdoor and indoor storage applications, allowing for greater flexibility and protection of the workplace and those working there.

The main reasons, it’s important to use a bunded pallet are:

Safer and easier cleanups

When a spillage occurs from a container or package on a bunded pallet, the design of the pallet ensures that the spill will be contained in the holding area of that pallet, so can be managed easily, without the need to use spill kits or to place workers in any unnecessary danger because of the need to clean up or contain the spill.

Bunded pallets are designed so that hazardous substances that spill, are not only contained within the pallet, but they can usually be recovered and recycled from within the pallet with minimal loss and disruption to production.

Making the workplace safer

Bunded pallets are designed to eliminate the danger of spills and accidents during chemical transportation, in the workplace and in storage facilities. They come in a range of sizes and designs to suit different applications and accommodate containers such as 60 litre to 220 litre steel and plastic drums and IBC’s (International Bulk Containers) of up to 1000 litres

Some bonded pallets are designed to accommodate drums or various sizes with containment areas of suitable capacity to contain the contents of those drums

Other types of bunded pallets are designed to accommodate dry chemicals and include containment areas to capture any spills from damaged bags or containers

Types of Bunded Pallet Materials

Plastic

Bunded pallets for corrosive chemicals are usually made are made using polyethylene a common material used to contain or store corrosive liquid chemicals. These have the advantage that they are strong, inexpensive, relatively lightweight, long-lasting, non-reactive and easy to clean before and after use

Steel

Steel bunded pallets are usually used for oils, flammable liquids and dry chemicals. They are very robust and not easily damaged when being moved around. Usually, they are manufactured using galvanized steel, then powder coated in colours to make them easily recognizable for the safe storage of a range of drum sizes and poly containers.

All businesses using or storing dangerous goods must make sure in the event of leaks or spills, these can be properly contained. The best and most effective method for this is using bunded pallets which are the ideal solution for storing, using or transporting hazardous or dangerous chemicals and safeguarding the workplace, personal and the environment in the event of accidents.

Bunded pallet: A short insight into this spill containment tool

When you work with hazardous liquids or substances, keeping safety in mind is of utmost importance. If you are not careful, the people, location, and the environment will all be at risk.

One such tool that helps with keeping the drums in industries safe from spilling is bunded pallets. In this blog, we will learn more about them.

Understanding the term bunded pallet

Bunded pallets are drip trays that are necessary for the safe storage of hazardous liquids or substances. These bunded pallets can store drums or other storage containers used to match the requirement of the industry/company.

Using a bunded pallet to store your drums or other storage containers with harmful substances is essential and required by rules. The capacity of a bunded pallet to hold storage differs. However, it can hold up to drums and bottles with 205 liters or 240 liters.

A bunded pallet not only protects the liquids/substances/chemicals from spilling. It also helps with keeping them clean and making the environment safe and healthy for everyone to work.

What is the requirement of a bunded pallet?

Who needs a bunded pallet?

Every industry may require a bunded pallet like a hotel or school, or hospital for various reasons for holding an end number of liquids or substances. However, there are a few industries that don’t deal with hazardous liquid or chemicals. They may find it unnecessary to use a bunded pallet. However, if the rule guide says you need a bunded pallet, you must have it.

Reasons for storing materials in bunded pallet

It reduces cleaning time: When you use a bunded pallet to store drums, the time to clean up the mess reduces. If there is a spill, it will be contained inside the pallet. That means it will decrease the time that you need to spend managing or cleaning the spill.

It protects the environment: The bunded pallet is imperative as it keeps the worker, surroundings, or the environment safe. It will ensure that the hazardous or non-hazardous substances/liquids don’t get lost in the environment, keeping everyone safe.

How to buy the best bunded pallet?

There are numerous varieties of bunded pallets in the market. So, how do you find the right one? Here are a few ways to do so:

1. According to its utility

Depending on the utility you have for bunded pallet, you can buy one for the following storage containers”

Drum poly spill pallet

Drum poly slim line spill pallet

Steel spill pallet

When you buy according to utility, it is better for you as every pallet is differently designed according to storage’s construction.

2. Other things to keep in mind:

The number of drums you have for storing liquids

Make sure you know what is inside the drum. It will make sure that when you move the pallet, you do it safely.
