Of the 19 forms used by the <br /> company during April and July 2007, all the forms contained at least one error; such as incorrect <br /> hauler Tire Program Identification Numbers(TPID), missing load type and load amounts&dates. <br /> Ten of the sampled forms are provided as Attachment 1. The percentage of errors was calculated by <br /> taking the total number of forms containing errors divided by the total number of forms submitted, <br /> which equaled 100%(this calculation reflects that every form had at least one error, not that every <br /> entry on each manifest was incorrect). An acceptable error rate established by the CIWMB is less <br /> than 2%. <br /> On August 9,2007,the Tire Hauler Compliance Section mailed GUTIERREZ TIRES, a letter <br /> informing them of the aforementioned errors, illegible entries, and omissions on their CTL forms, and <br /> that they would need to exercise more care when submitting future CTL forms in order to avoid <br /> possible enforcement action. The letter also indicated that a follow-up audit would be conducted <br /> within the next few months to determine their compliance with the CTL requirements(Attachment 2). <br /> In December 2007,a follow-up audit of CTL forms submitted by GUTIERREZ TIRES,to CIWMB <br /> between August 15, 2007 and December 31,2007 was conducted to determine whether they achieved <br /> compliance with the CTL requirements. The follow-up audit still revealed numerous errors, illegible <br /> entries, and omissions. Of 19 CTL forms submitted, all of the forms contained errors,which again <br />
