Cluff Ave <br /> Lodi, CA 95240 <br /> Dear Sir/Madam, <br /> On September 25, 1986, a complaint was received by this office <br /> regarding your handling/disposal of waste oil . <br /> Waste oil is considered a hazardous waste in the State of <br /> California pursuant to Title 22 , California Administrative Code, <br /> Section 66680 because it is likely to contain a hazardous <br /> material (for example; heavy metals, polychlorinated biphenyls <br /> (PCBs) , etc. ) . Any disposal of waste oil must be managed in <br /> accordance with the generator requirements outlined in Title 22 <br /> of the California Administrative Code, Article 6, unless a waste <br /> analysis is performed verifying no hazardous constituents are <br /> present. A detailed waste analysis is a costly procedure. <br /> Therefore, to attempt classification of waste oil as <br /> non-hazardous is generally an unreasonable management method. <br /> To dispose of waste oil in storm drains, sanitary sewer systems <br /> or to the land is illegal and may result in the taking of <br /> enforcement action by the Department. Substantial penalties can <br /> result from failure to comply with the law. <br /> If you are a residence, you are exempt from the generator <br /> requirements outlined below. There are many recycling centers <br /> available to properly dispose of your waste oil. For further <br /> information about these centers, look in the Yellow Pages of the <br /> telephone book under "Recycling Facilities" or call this office. <br /> If you are a business, you must achieve compliance with State <br /> regulations as a waste oil generator, you must: <br /> 1. Store waste oil in leak-proof containers. Waste oil <br /> may not be stored for longer than ninety (90) days <br /> without a storage permit or a variance from this <br /> Department to store waste in excess of the 90 day <br /> limit. <br /> 2 . Label the waste as follows: <br /> "Waste Oil" <br /> (Name of the Company) <br /> Start of accumulation date: MM/DD/YR <br /> (ie, the date you began to fill the container) <br />
