OBSERVATION: The facility does not have security in compliance with this section. The facility has a roll up door on the south side of the facility, which was open at the time of inspection, that does not have a sign that states, "Danger Hazardous Waste Area -Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out." REGULATION GUIDANCE: Title 22 California Code of Regulations section 66265.14 - Security (a) The owner or operator shall prevent the unknowing entry, and minimize the possibility for the unauthorized entry, of persons or livestock onto the active portion of the facility, unless the owner or operator can demonstrate to the Department that: (1) physical contact with the waste, structures, or equipment within the active portion of the facility will not injure unknowing or unauthorized persons or livestock which may enter the active portion of a facility, and (2) disturbance of the waste or equipment, by the unknowing or unauthorized entry of persons or livestock onto the active portion of a facility, will not cause a violation of the requirements of this chapter. (b) Unless the owner or operator has made a successful demonstration under subsection (a)(1) and (2) of this section, a facility shall have: (1) a 24-hour surveillance system (e.g., television monitoring or surveillance by guards or facility personnel) which continuously monitors and controls entry onto the active portion of the facility; or (2)(A) an artificial or natural barrier (e.g., a fence in good repair or a fence combined with a cliff), which completely surrounds the active portion of the facility; and (B) a means to control entry, at all times, through the gates or other entrances to the active portion of the facility (e.g., an attendant, television monitors, locked entrance, or controlled roadway access to the facility). (3) The requirements of subsection (b)(1) or (2) of this section shall be satisfied if the facility or plant within which the active portion is located itself has a surveillance system, or a barrier and a means to control entry, which complies with the requirements of subsection (b)(1) or (2) of this section. (c) Unless the owner or operator has made a successful demonstration under subsections (a)(1) and (a)(2) of this section, a sign with the legend, "Danger Hazardous Waste Area -Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out," shall be posted at each entrance to the active portion of a facility, and at other locations, in sufficient numbers to be seen from any approach to this active portion. The legend shall be written in English, Spanish and in any other language predominant in the area surrounding the facility, and shall be legible from a distance of at least 25 feet. Existing signs with a legend other than "Danger Hazardous Waste Area -Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out' may be used if the legend on the sign indicates that only authorized personnel are allowed to enter the active portion, and that entry onto the active portion can be dangerous. CORRECTIVE ACTION: Provide a corrective action statement and supporting documentation to the EHD within 30 days. This is a repeat violation, Class II. Overall Inspection Comments: An inspection checklist was provided to the facility operator on the day of inspection. A complete report was finished on 8/3/2021 and replaces the initial checklist. Complete and submit a copy of the Return to Compliance Certification form to the EHD with a statement documenting the corrective actions that have been or will be taken for each violation, and any supporting paperwork, by 9/2/2021.
