SPCC Screening Calculator for Dealerships

Determine whether your dealership requires a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) plan based on oil storage capacity and discharge pathways. This screening tool helps you understand federal SPCC requirements and state-specific reporting obligations.

State

State-specific requirements and reporting contacts (SPCC thresholds are federal).

Discharge Pathway Assessment

If uncertain, the tool assumes "Yes" for conservative compliance screening.

1) Add tanks / containers

Enter capacity directly (gallons) or provide dimensions. This is a screening tool and should be verified against nameplates/spec sheets for final SPCC documentation.

Name	Fluid Type	Location	Input Mode	Capacity Details	Computed
Include in screening	Used oil Count as oil	Aboveground	Known gallons	gal	275 gal Counts toward 1,320

💡 Tip: The screening threshold counts only containers ≥ 55 gallons (aboveground oil). You can still store smaller containers; they just don't count toward 1,320.

2) Totals

Counted oil (≥55 gal)

275 gal

Used for the 1,320 threshold screening

All aboveground oil

275 gal

Used for ≤10,000 qualified facility check

Largest oil container

275 gal

≤5,000 for Tier I

Non-oil total

0 gal

Excluded from SPCC oil threshold

Counted containers (≥55): 1

3) Screening Results

SPCC Applies: No

Next Step: UNKNOWN

Your counted aboveground oil storage (containers ≥ 55 gal) is at or below 1,320 gallons. Based on storage alone, SPCC is unlikely to apply.

Qualified Facility Self-Certification Eligibility

If SPCC regulations apply, your facility may qualify for self-certification as a "Qualified Facility" when aboveground oil storage capacity is ≤10,000 gallons and no disqualifying spill history exists. Check the boxes below if either condition applies to your facility:

Single discharge exceeding 1,000 gallons in the past 3 years

Two or more discharges of 42+ gallons each within any 12-month period in the past 3 years

Action Required: Please specify whether a discharge pathway exists to complete the screening assessment and receive your compliance recommendation.

Why this matters (for the paid module)

If SPCC applies, Flex2's paid module would guide:

Site-specific inventory + tank library matching
Secondary containment calculations (incl. precipitation)
Integrity testing determinations + deadline tracking (STI SP-001 / API 653 logic)
Labels + QR (state wording + Brady print/purchase)
Push-button SPCC plan generation + audit-ready reporting

Developer note

This MVP uses the same state overlay schema as the production seed dataset. The screening logic is also exposed as a server route:
