`... .,s <br /> Environmental Health Department <br /> San Joaquin County <br /> Inspection Report of Jan 18, 2005 <br /> Offenses Cited and necessary corrections: <br /> #10 Welding Slag <br /> We are required to determine if this is a hazardous substance and treat accordingly or, as we <br /> were told,this has already been determined to be a hazardous substance by others and we <br /> should treat it as such. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Provide metal bucket with lid so that all welding slag can be cleaned up daily and placed In this <br /> container. This container will be identified as"Welding Slag"and the lid kept closed and we will <br /> determine the appropriate waste stream for it. <br /> #12 Spent Absorbent <br /> Spent absorbent must be cleaned up daily and disposed of in an appropriate waste stream. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Provide for lidded plastic containers specifically for absorbent. We will make an attempt to utilize <br /> this form of conatainment less and move towards industry standard fiber type of absorbers. <br /> These will be disposed of in our waste stream with appropriate vendors. <br /> #20 Unlabeled Containers <br /> Two Waste Oil Drums (just emptied) did not have appropriate labeling. Keep a supply of <br /> replacement labels on hand and always have them correctly dated and visable. <br /> #21 Open Containers <br /> Two or three buckets used to move oil around were observed at the oil loading rack. The <br /> containers were open, unlabeled and had some residue in them. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> All buckets used to transport oil will have lids and be labeled. No buckets will be left with <br /> residual oil. Oil remaining must be placed back in original containers or in waste oil drums. <br /> To Do List: <br /> 1. Purchase Steel Bucket with lid for welding slage. Container MUST be labeld "Welding <br /> Slag". All spent welding material must be cleaned up daily and placed in this container. <br /> 2. Purchase Plastic drum for spent absorbent. Container MUST have a lid. Suggest 55 <br /> gallon size and have container labeled"Spent Absorbent' <br /> 3. Call American Valley Waste ((800) 732-4645) and get a supply of Waste Oil Stickers to <br /> keep on hand. Make sure that drums are emptied as soon as possible and that stickers <br /> and kept up to date. <br /> 4. All buckets used for transporting oil MUST have lids and they MUST be labeled. This will <br /> also aid in cross contamination issues. <br />
