A Dollar Tree basket containing 38 bottles of Nature's Measure Glucosamine Joint Therapy tablets, 31 of which had a best buy date of 7/7/2018 and 7 of which had a best buy date of March 2019,was found in an area of the stock room located behind the hazardous waste (HW)storage area (see photos IMG 5306-8, 5311, 5313, 5317).The bottle labels provided Supplemental Facts.According to Annalyn Mamaradlo, store manager, she suspected an employee removed the bottles from the sales shelf since they were expired, but did not determine what to do with the bottles.According to page 13 of Dollar Tree's California Training Guide on Hazardous Waste Handling and Processing Procedures, "any waste product whose label provides"Drug Facts"or"Supplemental Facts" must be managed as State-Regulated,Toxics, Electronics, OTC Pharmaceuticals, Universal Waste(STOU), regardless of the product's ingredients."Annalyn placed the bottles into two hazardous waste bags and into an STOU HW tote (IMG 5316, 5318). An empty container of LA's Totally Awesome Bleach was found on the ground adjacent the facility's mop sink. Annalyn scanned the barcode on the bleach and the hand-held scanner prompted her to place the item into the Oxidizers(OX)HW tote(IMG 5327-30).Annalyn placed the empty bleach container in a bag and into the OX HW tote. Any person who generates a waste shall determine if the waste is a hazardous waste. Immediately make a hazardous waste determination for any potential hazardous waste, and manage it according the Title 22 hazardous waste regulations. This was corrected on site. This is a Class II violation. 104 CCR 66262.34(d)(2)No modified contingency plan. The modified contingency plan posted in the facility office listed Eric Darville as the emergency coordinator, however according to Annalyn Mamaradlo, store manager, Eric no longer works at the facility(IMG 5333). There must be at least one emergency coordinator on site or on call to coordinate emergency response measures, and the following information must be posted by a phone:the name and phone number of the emergency coordinator; location of fire extinguishers, spill control equipment, and if present,fire alarm; and the phone number of the fire department, unless the facility has a direct alarm. Immediately appoint an emergency coordinator and post the required information by a phone. This is a Class II violation.
