Oil Spill Contingency Plan
April 8, 2024 - May 8, 2024, 5 p.m.
We invite interested public, local and tribal governments to review and comment on NuStar Energy’s contingency plan updates.
Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 173-182 and 173-186 requires oil handling facilities, pipelines, vessels and railroads to have a state-approved oil spill contingency plan that ensures their ability to respond to major oil spills. Regulated companies are required to submit changes to Ecology and updates may require a 30-day public review of the updates (WAC 173-182-142 / WAC 173-186-430).
Specific changes are as follows:
- Revision of the worst-case discharge volumes at both the Tacoma and Vancouver facilities, and updated planning standard spreadsheets.
- Plan reformatting.
The following plan is now available for public review:
