Once a solid funding mechanism is in place (after January 1, 2010), the El Segundo CUPA will initiate the process of hiring APSA program staff. IV. Identification of Regulated Universe The El Segundo CUPA will use the AST Tank facility list provided by Cal /EPA as the starting point for the identification of the regulated tank facilities in El Segundo. The list will be compared with the existing facility data to determine those facilities already regulated under one or more Unified Program elements that handle petroleum materials in amounts that are equal to or in excess of 1,320 gallons. The list will then be segregated based on the following categories: APSA GRANT APPLICATION — December 2007 • o • ABOVEGROUND PETROLEUM STORAGE ACT (APSA) PROGRAM GRANT APPLICATION 1. Exempted tank facilities with total tank storage capacity of less than 20,000 gallons 2. Tank facilities w /storage capacity >1,320 and <10,000 gallons 3.

Tank facilities w /storage capacity > 100,000,000 gallons The El Segundo CUPA will submit the complete list of regulated tank facilities to Cal /EPA by December 1, 2008. V. Staff Training Plan Both the consultant and redirected CUPA staff will be attending the AST Training Program developed by Cal /EPA, which is scheduled to be delivered in July, August, and September 2008. When permanent APSA Program staff is hired, they will go through the AST Training Program's computer -based training course, including successful completion of the examination for inspectors. The APSA Program standards will be incorporated into the CUPA's on -going training program to program staff on a regular basis. VI. Inspection and Compliance Plan As part of the City of El Segundo CUPA's Unified Inspection and Enforcement Program, the CUPA will ensure all regulated businesses subject to the APSA Program are in compliance with all the program requirements, including SPCC Plan preparation and implementation, annual submission of their facility statement, and spill notifications. Exempted tank facilities will be periodically reviewed to verify that their total tank capacity is less than 20,000 gallons and to ensure they are performing and documenting their daily tank inspections.. Tank facilities with storage capacity of > 1,320 and <10,000 gallons will be periodically reviewed to verify that their total tank capacity is less than10,000 gallons and to ensure that they have prepared and are implementing an SPCC Plan, are submitting their annual facility statements, and are paying the APSA Program fee. Tank facilities with storage capacity of >10,000 gallons will be inspected at least once every three years to ensure that they have prepared and are implementing an SPCC Plan in compliance with U.S. Code of federal Regulations, Title 40, part 112. The inspection will also include a visual inspection of a representative sample of the tanks at the tank facility. The inspection and all violations discovered during the inspections will be documented on an inspection report form.
