Vapor recovery unit
Air Quality

Vapor recovery. 99.5% DRE.

Second-generation vapor recovery units (VRUs) integrate the marine manifold, truck rack and tank vents under a single recovery loop. Destruction and removal efficiency is held above 99.5% — well within MTSA limits — and reported continuously.

  • Marine manifold VRU
  • Truck rack VRU
  • Internal floating roof tanks
  • Fugitive emission monitoring (Method 21)
  • TCEQ Title V air permit
  • Continuous DRE reporting
Fire Suppression

Foam-suppressed. Continuously drilled.

Each tank pad is served by a dedicated foam suppression header and remote-operated monitors with redundant firewater supply, jockey pumps and main diesel-driven pumps. Crews drill monthly with mutual-aid coordination across the Channelview industrial district.

  • NFPA 11 / 25 compliant
  • Diesel-driven firewater pumps
  • Foam concentrate inventory on-site
  • Remote-operated tank monitors
  • Mutual-aid agreements
  • Monthly response drills

Spill response boom deployment
Spill Response

OPA-90 ready. USCG-coordinated.

A full Facility Response Plan filed with USCG covers worst-case discharge scenarios, with pre-staged boom inventory, OSRO contractor coverage, and continuous coordination with the Houston-Galveston Area Committee.

  • OPA-90 Facility Response Plan
  • USCG-approved OSRO contractor
  • Pre-staged boom & skimmers
  • NRC notification protocols
  • Marine pollution mutual-aid
  • Quarterly response exercises
