The pile containing more than 499 waste tires was still at the southern perimeter fence/wall and 384 improperly stored tires were still scatter throughout the facility. Waste and improperly stored tires were stored next to use tires and on vegetation. The facility has generated 79 more waste tires since the last inspection (12/22/2016) due to repairs and sales. As a result,the facility is still in violation of T14 CCR 17354 (e)(f),which states that waste tire pile containing more than 499 waste tires shall be located 50 feet from lot line or buildings and be at a distance of at least 40 feet from combustible ground vegetation and stored used tires. According to 14 CCR,Section 17354 facility may contact the local fire authority for approval of any deviation from waste tire storage and disposal standards. Any alternative requirement approved by local fire authority shall be subject to Cal-Recycle concurrence. Since waste tires were not cover by an impermeable barrier,the waste tires on site still contain water and algae. Facility is in violation of 14 CCR 17353 (a),which states that all waste tires shall be stored in a manner which prevents the breeding and harborage of mosquitos, rodents, and other vectors. Additionally,the facility does not have a ten feet pike pole on site;therefore, is an area of concern for 14 CCR 17351 (c), which states that facility shall provide and maintain on site the adequate equipment to aid in the control of fires. Waste Tire Count During the inspection, waste tires on site were calculated to be 1,171. Of the 1,171 waste tires observed onsite, 161 laced waste tires were stored next to the 625.8 loosely stored pile of waste tires.Also, 384 improperly stored tires were scatter throughout the facility. The dimension of the pile was 24'x 22'x 4' and equals 78 CY. 78 CY passenger tires x 10 tires per CY=780 passenger tire equivalent (PTE)x .8 (20% reduction) =625.8 PTE.The total waste tires counted for the facility was 161+384+625.8=1170.8 (1171).
