Garrett Backus [EH] <br /> From: Gar ett Backus [EH] <br /> Sent: Friday, July 09, 2010 9:58 AM <br /> To: 'TAYLOR, ANDREW M (ATTSI)' <br /> Cc: 'Cot nie Mitchell' <br /> Subject: RE: Brake Shaving <br /> Andrew, <br /> This email is in response to the AT&T document received April 5, 2010 regarding the 2300 E <br /> Eight Mile Road hazardous waste generator inspection on February 26, 2010. <br /> The facility has a scrar metal bin which is filled with various pieces of metal to be <br /> recycled. During the inspection I asked for receipts showing that the metal was sent to a <br /> recycler. I have not r ceived these receipts. Title 22 California Code of Regulations <br /> (CCR) 66261. 6(a) (3) (B) Etates that RCRA hazardous waste are not subject to the hazardous <br /> waste regulations if thE scrap metal is recycled. I requested the recycling receipts to <br /> prove that the scrap metal is being recycled. <br /> I reviewed the analytical results for the brake rotor metal shavings. A fraction of the <br /> metal shavings are less than 100 microns in size. The results show that the metal <br /> shavings less than 100 nicrons in size contain 7.8 mg/liter chromium which exceeds the <br /> limit of 5 mg/liter (ST C) chromium listed in the Characteristic of Toxicity, Title 22 CCR <br /> 66261.24. <br /> Therefore, I request that AT&T send copies of metal recycling receipts to me for scrap <br /> metal larger than 100 microns. I also request that AT&T explain how metal waste smaller <br /> that 100 microns will bE handled since the analytical results show that the metal shavings <br /> are hazardous waste. <br /> Garrett Backus <br /> Senior Registered Envir nmental Health Specialist San Joaquin County Environmental Health <br /> Department 600 E Main Street, Stockton CA 95202-3029 <br /> telephone: (209) 468-2986 <br /> fax: (209) 468-3433 <br /> email: gbackus@sjcehd.c m <br /> -----Original Message-- -- <br /> From: TAYLOR, ANDREW M (ATTSI) [mailto:at2397@att.com] <br /> Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 9:44 AM <br /> To: Garrett Backus [EH] <br /> Subject: Brake Shaving <br /> Dear Mr. Backus, <br /> I'm following up on the letter submitted by Jim Stehr in response to the inspection <br /> findings concerning brake shavings from the AT&T facility on Eight Mile Road in Stockton. <br /> Based upon analytical submission AT&T would like to confirm that indeed the response was <br /> adequate and that the issue has been closed and the finding retracted by your <br /> organization. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Andrew M.
