San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department 1868 East Hazelton Avenue, Stockton, California 95205-6232 Telephone:(209)468-3420 Fax:(209)468-3433 Web:www.sogov.org/ehd Small Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator Inspection Report Facility Name: Facility Address: Date: FAMILY DOLLAR#32078 66 S WILSON WAY, STOCKTON March 20, 2019 SUMMARY OF VIOLATIONS (CLASS I,CLASS II,or MINOR-Notice to Comply) Item# Remarks hazardous waste hauler to dispose of this waste under manifest. Submit a copy of the manifest to the EHD within 30 days. This is a Class II violation. Overall Inspection Comments: Note: -According to the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) Hazardous Waste Tracking System (HWTS), the generator name on file for this facility is Family Dollar#32078. However, in the California Environmental Reporting System (CERS)the facility name is Family Dollar#12078. Correct this discrepancy in the facility name and notify the EHD once completed. -The amount of hazardous waste generated in the last calendar year could not be determined due to manifests not being readily available for review at the time of inspection. Also, there were no manifests found on file with the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC)at the time of inspection. -According to Michael Griffin, store manager, the facility had a hazardous waste pick-up before the 2018 holiday season, and another pick-up which was more recent. At the time of inspection, only 8-10 hazardous waste items were observed stored in the hazardous waste totes, as mentioned in the above violations. Michael stated that many items are salvaged and are sold at a marked down price to reduce the amount of hazardous waste generated. However, Michael also stated empty containers that previously held liquid chemicals and the spill clean-up waste from such chemicals are disposed of in the trash. Provide a statement to the EHD explaining Family Dollar's process for determining which items may be salvaged, specifically potential hazardous waste items. -According to Michael and Gloria Oros, district manager, SPAR, a third party group, takes recalled items from the facility and mails the items via UPS or FedEx to either the facility's corporate or distribution center. Gloria stated she did not know where exactly the items are mailed to. The following documentation and items were found in the facility's office: - Family Dollar documentation noting the destruction of nine items of.125 fl. oz. of Baby Orajel from the facility by a SPAR representative, Paul Cesar, on 6/12/18 due to a voluntary recall (see photo IMG 4939-4940). - Family Dollar documentation dated 10/4/2018 noting the immediate isolation and hold of 24 HR Prevacid Capsule 14 CT (SKU 914127)for a third party, and not to be sold due to a quality concern. This documentation also notes possible disposal of this item. A Family Dollar plastic bag was found containing approximately 5-10 boxes of 24HR Prevacid Capsule 14 CT. (IMG 4942-4945) - Lastly, Family Dollar documentation dated 1/31/2019 noting the immediate isolation and hold of Crocs Lighters 5pk (SKU 900836)and Cres Sprkwhl Cgrett Lghtr 3pk (SKU 900870), and not to be sold due to a quality concern.
