The following is an itemized list of underground storage tank violations that have not been addressed for Arco. Am pm 83333 as of March 15, T7. Open violations from October 26, 2016 inspection Violation #201 - Failed to maintain alarm logs and/or records of follow up actions. Maintenance and monitoring records for the last three years were not found on site. According to Mr. Rizkallah, the site has not been maintaining records for alarms that clear themselves or that they address without a technician, such as removing liquid from a sump. These records shall be maintained on site for at least three years. Monitoring records include: (1) date and time of all monitoring or sampling; (2) monitoring equipment calibration and maintenance records; (3) results of any visual observations; (4) results of sample analysis performed a lab or in the field; (5) logs of all readings of gauges or other monitoring equipment, ground water elevations, or other test results; (6) results of inventory readings and reconciliations. Immediately locate and maintain all missing maintenance and monitoring records for the last three years on site and submit copies to the EHD. Violation #305 -VPH monitoring of the interstitial spaces of the UST system is not maintained. -The brine levels in the vent sump were several inches below the top of the sump-the technician added brine at the time of inspection. Records on site show that brine was added to all UDC sumps on 10/13/16. -The brine sensors in the UDC interstitials were placed at the bottom of the brine reservoirs, approximately 8 inches below the liquid levels, and not located to detect a leak at the earliest opportunity. -The communication inside the fill and STP sumps (6 sumps total) was not tested during today's inspection and could not be verified functional. The sensors monitoring the liquid level in the interstitial space shall be maintained so that a breach in the primary or secondary containment is detected before the hazardous substance is released into the environment. Ensure that monitoring of the interstitial space is maintained at all times and that all potential leaks are properly addressed. Immediately schedule for verification testing of the sump interstitial communication (all EHD staff time associated with this reinspection will be billed at the current hourly rate). If alterations will be made to the sumps to allow for easier communication testing, they must be done under permit and inspection of the EHD. Violation #306 - Monitoring equipment is not installed or maintained to detect a leak at the earliest opportunity. The brine sensors in the UDC interstitials were placed at the bottom of the brine reservoirs, approximately 8 inches below the liquid levels, and not located to detect a leak at the earliest opportunity. Monitoring equipment shall be maintained to be able to detect a leak at the earliest possible opportunity. Immediately contact a properly certified individual to relocate the sensors. Ensure that all monitoring equipment is maintained to detect a leak at the earliest opportunity. Violation #316 -Secondary containment not constructed to prevent water intrusion (after Jul 2003). Water was found in the 91 STP sump, diesel STP sump, and 87 fill sump. Secondary containment shall be constructed to prevent any water intrusion into the system by precipitation, infiltration, or surface runoff. The service technician removed the liquid from the sumps and returned the sensors to their proper location. Immediately contact a properly licensed, trained, and certified contractor to address the water intrusion into the 91 STP sump, diesel STP sump, and 87 fill sump under permit and inspection of the EHD. Violation #319 - No spill bucket, failed to contain five gallons, or failed to provide a means to keep it empty. The 87 west spill container failed when tested. All spill containers shall have a minimum capacity of five gallons and be capable of containing a spill or overfill until it is detected or cleaned up. Immediately contact a properly licensed, trained, and certified contractor to repair or replace the spill container under notification and inspection of the EHD. Page 1 of 1
