Title: Oil Pollution Prevention: Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Rule Requirements--Amendments for Milk Containers 
Abstract: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) has proposed to amend the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rule to exempt milk containers and associated equipment and appurtenances on farms and in other dairy operations subject to the Grade "A" Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO) requirements or a State dairy regulatory requirement equivalent to the current applicable PMO. Additionally EPA has requested comment on alternative approaches to address facilities that may have milk containers and associated piping and appurtenances. This proposal addresses concerns raised specifically by the dairy farm sector on the applicability of the SPCC requirements to milk containers.
