I performed an inspection on April 10, 2014 at New Hope Care Center(see attachment), a skilled <br /> nursing facility, in Tracy California and found discrepancies. New Hope has a service agreement(see <br /> attachment)with Prima Medical Waste Management for bi-weekly pick-up to start March 10, 2014. Per the facility <br /> only one tracking document was left onsite for the 3 pick-ups of medical waste. The tracking document shows a <br /> pick up by National Green Gas was performed on March 24, 2014 (see attachment). The facility contacted <br /> National Green Gas to request tracking documents for 2 other pick-ups performed on March 10, 2014 and April 7, <br /> 2014. <br /> 1 noted on my report that a phone call made, during the inspection, by New Hope to Prima Medical Waste <br /> Management to ask why National Green Gas tracking documents are being used, A Mr. Fernando stated the <br /> driver provided an incorrect one. I also noted on my report that a phone call made, during the inspection, by <br /> National Green Gas to New Hope, informed Al Matthews, New Hope representative, that the driver made a <br /> mistake and provided the wrong tracking document. <br /> Based on information from those phone calls, it appears a driver is carrying Prima Waste Management tracking <br /> documents and National Green Gas tracking documents, is this allowed? Can New Hope have National Green <br /> Gas (a hazardous waste hauler) listed in their Medical Waste Management Plan as their hauler, have a service <br /> agreement with National Green Gas and have tracking documents from National Green Gas for medical waste <br /> removed but the vehicle used to remove the waste belongs to Prima Medical Waste(a hazardous waste hauler)? <br /> Alfonso Arambula, Sr REHS <br /> San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department <br /> 1868 E.
