The station personnel shall be trained to visually recognize hazardous wastes. They shall <br /> also be trained in the proper handling procedures for hazardous wastes. <br /> If hazardous materials are detected, the area shall be isolated immediately with traffic <br /> cones or similar devices. The San Joaquin County Department of Environmental Health, <br /> (LEA), 209-468-3400, shall be notified immediately. If the LEA determines it to be <br /> necessary, the Department of Health Services shall be notified. <br /> The waste shall remain isolated and undisturbed until the LEA decides on a proper <br /> disposal method that is in accordance with State hazardous to handling procedures. <br /> If the LEA determines that it is safe, an effort should be made to look for a name, <br /> address or phone number on or around the hazardous waste so that the disposer of the <br /> hazardous materials can be contacted, educated in proper disposal methods of hazardous <br /> wastes and billed for the removal of the wastes. <br /> The operator that discovers the wastes shall complete a full report that describes the type <br /> and quantity of hazardous waste found, the time and circumstances of the hazardous <br /> waste discovery, the isolation measures taken, any information that may identify the <br /> origin of the wastes and any other pertinent information. This report shall be completed <br /> when the hazardous waste is secured and submitted by the facility supervisor to the LEA <br /> within 24 hours. <br /> No hazardous waste will be stored at the facility for extended periods. The waste will <br /> be removed within 144 hours by a licensed hauler and disposed of in a proper location <br /> as determined by the LEA. <br /> PHASE III Random Load Checking <br /> The third phase of the hazardous waste screening program is a random load checking <br /> program. The load checking shall be conducted by an inspector trained in hazardous <br /> waste detection and handling. <br /> On a random basis, the trained inspector will select a load for inspection. The driver <br /> will be asked to unload the waste at a designated location. The driver will be instructed <br /> to pull forward while unloading, so that a long, narrow windrow is formed. The <br /> inspector will then sort through the windrow, using a rake or shovel. The material will <br /> B-4 Nmz&w A IM <br />
