Dollar General #14353, 915 E Yosemite Ave. Manteca, CA Record ID PR0537831 <br />07/31/2019 CUPA — Haz. Waste <br />PHOTO # 1 <br />When asked how employees determine which of the differently categorized hazardous waste (HW) totes a waste item belongs in, Tenisha Arbet, Store <br />Manager, said each item is scanned using a hand-held scanner, which will sometimes state which HW tote the item belongs in. Tenisha indicated that <br />when the scanner does not specify which HW tote an item belongs in, employees will read the item's label and ingredients, as well as the PSC HW <br />guidance poster and documents (posted in the HW storage area), which provide product examples and key words for each of the HW categories, to <br />determine which HW tote an item belongs in (see photos IMG 7815, 7819, 7830, 7862, 7875, 7901, 7923). When asked if a determination cannot be made <br />based on the information on the item label and the guidance poster and documents, Tenisha stated she will contact her district manager. Steve Bohnak, <br />District Manager, indicated he would call Eric Voyles, Director of Facilities Management, if needed, to ask for assistance on making the determination. <br />Tenisha and Steve did not seem aware of Dollar General's Respond ticketing system to submit a notification to Dollar General (DG) Corporate regarding <br />the scanning system not providing a HW category for a particular waste item. <br />The waste items listed below were observed in the HW totes, but at the time of inspection it could not be determined how the HW determinations for each <br />of these items were made. The hand-held scanner did not specify which HW tote the items should go in, and the PSC guidance poster and documents did <br />not list these types of items: <br />A bag of Hickory Charcoal Briquets was found in a Toxic HW tote (IMG 7819-23). <br />Elianna Florido, REHS Page 1 of 131 <br />
