Volume 5: Response activity for the VIAP
Appendix A.3 – Operation, maintenance, and monitoring (OM&M) of an active vapor mitigation system (AVMS) report

The purpose of OM&M is to ensure the AVMS continues to function as designed until the vapor source(s) no longer poses an unacceptable risk to receptors. During the OM&M, the AVMS continues to be operated, maintained/repaired, and monitored in accordance with the performance metrics confirmed during the installation and commissioning.

Repairs or modifications to the AVMS should be handled in a manner consistent with contingency actions or a contingency plan established for non-performance of specific system components and the design performance requirements associated with each. Any new additions or significant modifications to the AVMS moves the AVMS back into Phase 2 – system installation/commissioning.
