Management and Recordkeeping: Once a month, all accumulated wastes will be <br />sealed in their containers, weighed and logged into the waste accumulation <br />log. The log will be checked to ensure that CESQG accumulation limits have <br />not been exceeded. Mercury switches are shipped through the Waste <br />Management Mercury Tracker Program, where they are sent to Mercury <br />Waste Solutions for recycling. Copies of all shipping papers are kept on file <br />as well as certificates or recycling. <br />Refrigerant and Compressor Oils <br />Identification: Oil must be removed from compressors in air conditioning and <br />refrigeration units and washing machine transmissions. Removal will be <br />completed as per the CIWMB Appliance Recycling Guide and other training <br />documents. <br />Removal Procedure: Used oil is found in refrigerant and air conditioning <br />compressors and washing machine transmissions. All refrigerant will be <br />evacuated from appliances prior to used oil removal. Compressors will be <br />removed from the appliance prior to draining the used oil. This will be done <br />by cutting the refrigerant lines and electrical wires and removing the fasteners <br />connecting the compressor to the appliance. Once removed, a hole will be <br />drilled in the capacitor and it will be placed on a grill over a drum, to <br />completely drain the oil from the capacitor. Washing machine transmissions <br />may or may not be removed from the machine prior to draining the oil. If <br />removal is required, this will be done by cutting or unbolting the components <br />holding the transmission in. If removed, a hole will be drilled in the <br />transmission and it will be placed on a grill over a drum to completely drain <br />the oil. If not removed, a hole will be drilled in the transmission, and it will <br />be allowed to drain into a drain pan placed under the machine. The drain pan <br />will then be emptied into the appropriate used oil drum. <br />Packaging: 55 gallon steel drums <br />Labeling: Labels will be affixed to the tank at the time the first oil is placed in <br />the drum. The label will have the generator name and address, the <br />accumulation start date and will state "Used Oil — Hazardous Waste" <br />Storage: Used oil drums will be stored in the designated hazardous waste location <br />on site for up to one year, but are typically disposed of every three months. <br />These drums are stored on a secondary containment pallet. <br />Management and Recordkeeping: Once a month, all accumulated wastes will be <br />sealed in their containers, weighed and logged into the waste accumulation <br />log. The log will be checked to ensure that CESQG accumulation limits have <br />not been exceeded. All wastes will then be transported to the San Joaquin <br />County HHW Facility as CESQG material. The used oil is then picked up by <br />Evergreen Environmental. A bill of lading will be utilized to transport the <br />Universal Wastes, and be kept on file. <br />Capacitors <br />Identification: Capacitors and PCB Capacitors will be identified as per the <br />CIWMB Appliance Recycling Guide and other training documents. If there is <br />any doubt as to the PCB content, a capacitor will be assumed to contain <br />PCB's. <br />Packaging: 5 gallon bucket with screw top lids or 30 gallon drums. PCB and <br />non -PCB capacitors will be packaged in separate buckets. Capacitors with <br />any sign of leakage will be placed in a secondary container prior to being <br />
