3 . Hazardous waste, collected at the point of generation in <br /> the repair shop, exceeds its quantity limitation of one <br /> 55 gallon drum. <br /> l <br /> 4 . Employee training records did not include a list of job <br /> descriptions and the name of the person filling the <br /> posi ion. <br /> VIII.OBSERVATI NS: <br /> I arrived on site at approximately 9 : 30 a.m. and met with Del <br /> Parks, th Environmental/Safety Manager. Mr. Parks escorted me <br /> to Rober Huntley' s office where I asked for and received <br /> consent o perform the annual routine hazardous waste <br /> generator inspection. <br /> We began the inspection in the urethane bumper repair and <br /> painting shop. No violations were noted in this area. <br /> Next we poceeded to the metal bumper core yard and repair <br /> shop. Bum ers are sanded, ground, and repaired in this area. <br /> Floor swe pings are collected and stored in metal drums for <br /> later dis osal as hazardous waste. I noted that the collection <br /> drums wer unlabeled, open, and the waste collected exceeded <br /> the allow ble quantity limit. The compressor oil waste noted <br /> in the 1 92 inspection report has been eliminated in this <br /> location. A synthetic oil is now being used and changing <br /> occurs less frequently negating the need for localized <br /> collection. <br /> The inspe tion continued through the plating and polishing <br /> areas whe e no violations were noted. Stockton Plating is <br /> working t reduce hazardous waste production in these areas by <br /> adding fl ating discs (referred to as "UFO' s) to reduce <br /> chromium vaporation, and by sealing the copper plating room <br /> floor to educe absorption. Many of the quickly deteriorating <br /> wooden fl or planks have been replaced with more durable metal <br /> grating which needs less maintenance and lasts longer. Smaller <br /> plating t nks will be placed inside the present tanks to <br /> minimize roduct use, evaporation, and dragout. These tanks <br /> should gr atly reduce the amount of waste currently being <br /> treated a d recycled. <br /> From her we inspected the job shop, treatment area, <br /> maintenan e shop, hazardous materials storage area, and the <br /> hazardous waste storage area. No violations were noted in <br /> these are s at this time. <br /> The treatm nt system filters out the metal waste and disposes <br /> of the tr''eated water to the municipal sewer system under <br /> permit. Alt the time of this inspection, no discharge <br /> violations) have been noted by the City of Stockton Municipal <br /> 5 <br />
