We have operated with a perfect record of safe and clean operations. No incidents, accidents, or fuel spills. Booster meets or exceeds all applicable environmental, health, governmental, and safety regulations All drivers have CDLs with tank and hazmat certification. All drivers and vehicles are DOT and NFPA compliant. All drivers and employees are trained in spill and accident mitigation. Booster maintains all proper fire and spill mitigation supplies in its vehicles as mandated by law. And, Booster’s refueling model reduces gasoline vapor emissions by more than 40% versus service stations. Booster Fuels is the Safer, Cleaner alternative. 7 Booster Spill Control: “Not a drop.” Ever. Booster Fuels Inc. believes that the protection of people, places and the environment is essential to operations. Every individual in the company has the ability to stop any process should they believe a spill could occur. Even small drips are not acceptable to Booster Fuels. Our slogan is “not a drop” and each driver keeps this in mind when they provide service to a customer. We achieve our “not a drop” goal through extensive training of drivers on Booster Fuels’ operational procedures. “Not a drop” starts at the truck, where the driver grips the nozzle with an absorbent pad specifically designed to absorb gasoline. The driver carefully walks the nozzle to the customer’s car and places the absorbent pad underneath the nozzle when inserted into the car. The pad absorbs any potential drips that might occur during fueling. The following plan is on file with local fire departments (each plan has specific location based details) and is our company Spill Prevention and Response Plan. All processes and procedures must be followed as outlined here. Failure to follow these procedures can result in disciplinary actions.
