enamel coating is applied to the welded area. The enamel <br /> coating is referred to as a "side stripe" and is applied to <br /> prevent the tin from coming in contact with the food. The <br /> cylinders are then baked in an oven to "cure" the side <br /> stripe. Once the cylinders are cured, one end is <br /> mechanically placed on the cylinder by crimping the tin <br /> surfaces together. <br /> VI. HAZARDOUS WASTE ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: <br /> 1. The application of the side stripe placed on the cans <br /> and the cleaning of the enamel coating line generates a <br /> hazardous waste liquid that is composed of enamel <br /> sludge and methylethyl ketone (M.E.K. ) solvent. In <br /> 1992, 55. 2 tons of this waste was manifested to Romic <br /> Chemical Corporation, 2081 Bay Road, East Palo Alto, <br /> CA, 94303 . <br /> 2 . Two oil/water waste streams are generated; one from the <br /> pneumatic machinery used to manufacture the cans, and <br /> one from the maintenance of the machinery used in the <br /> production of the cans. In 1992, 2 . 64 tons of this <br /> waste was shipped to Romic Chemical in Palo Alto, CA. <br /> 3 . A solvent waste stream characterized as hazardous waste <br /> liquid, not otherwise specified, Methylethyl Ketone, is <br /> generated from mop water collected while cleaning the <br /> production floor. In 1992 , 16. 5 tons of this waste was <br /> hauled off site to Romic Chemical in Palo Alto, CA. <br /> 4 . A Safety Kleen Station is maintained to service various <br /> mechanical lifts at the facility. In 1992, . 04 tons of <br /> this waste was manifested off site to Safety Kleen, <br /> 5050 Salida Boulevard, Salida, CA, 95368 . <br /> 5. Six empty drums last containing a combustible liquid <br /> were manifested off site (overpack drums) . This <br /> accounted for . 3 tons of "drum waste" shipped to Romic <br /> Chemical in Palo Alto, CA (Manifest #91627236) . <br /> VII. VIOLATIONS: <br /> At the time of inspection, the following violations were <br /> noted: <br /> A. Flammable Storage Building: <br /> 1. Two drums of hazardous waste labeled as waste oil <br /> had an accumulation date that exceeded the 90 day <br /> storage period. <br /> 3 <br />
