The spill prevention strategies may be part of the appendices.(3) A system of index tabs must be used to provide easy reference to particular chapters and appendices.(4) Plans must be formatted to allow replacement of revised pages and components without requiring replacement of the entire plan.(5) Plans must include a simplified field document that summarizes key notification and action elements of the plan and is suitable for onsite use in the event of a spill.(6) Plans may be submitted and updated electronically if all required plan components are in a form DEQ can easily access. DEQ will determine which types of electronic media are acceptable for the plan submittal.(7) Composite plans that rely on standard documents DEQ already has on file may incorporate those documents by reference.Or.
