The material appeared to be antifreeze or oil. Mr.Ramirez told me it was oil. I saw no storage containers <br /> for spent solids or oil in garage. I asked Mr.Ramirez what he did with the waste oil and used solvents and he told me <br /> they do not have any waste onsite. Staining of floor of the facility and outside grounds was evident. Mr.Ramirez told <br /> me they paint cars, sand old paint off, and repair automobiles at facility. Many containers of paint, paint thinner, and <br /> primer were observed. Some of these containers were found to have no lids or covers. <br /> Mr.Ramirez and I walked outside into the yard where there were many abandoned vehicles. Several of the vehicles had <br /> dark stains on the ground below them. I observed a 5 gallon, uncovered container of dark brown liquid. Mr.Ramirez <br /> told me he thought it was probably oil, but he wasn't sure. <br /> I explained small generator hazardous waste storage laws to Mr.Ramirez and gave him written information on proper <br /> storage and disposal procedures for antifreeze,waste oil,and car batteries. I told Mr.Ramirez that paint,oil,and solvent <br /> wastes at this site needed to be contained and managed as hazardous waste. <br /> I took several more photos and left the premises. <br /> H.
