According to the site inspection and according to the reviewed tank assessment report, prepared by Canestoga-Rovers&Associates(dated August 15, 2012), the 450-gallon and 1750-gallon waste oil tanks appear to have insufficient secondary containment. The reviewed waste oil tank assessment, indicated the oil water separator pit used as secondary containment for the 1,750-gallon tank"doesn't appear to meet the requirements of 22 CCR 66265.193 and it didn't appear to be lined and cracks were observed in concrete above the liquid level in the pit". Furthermore, according to the same tank assessment, the 450-gallon waste oil tank has no secondary containment. Also, the oily waste mixture, referred to as"biosol" and used in the glass making process, discharges directly from the glass making area into an unlined area where it pools and subsequently flows into the in-ground oil water separators. All bulk storage tanks must be provided with a secondary means of containment for the entire capacity of the tank and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. Immediately provide sufficient secondary containment for this and all other tanks at this facility. This is a Class II violation. 710 CFR 112.8(c)(3)(iv) Failed to maintain records of drainage from diked areas. Records of drainage of uncontaminated rainwater from diked areas were not found on site. Adequate records (or NPDES permit records) of drainage from diked areas shall be retained. Immediately begin maintaining adequate records(or NPDES permit records) of drainage from diked areas. Submit proof of correction to the EHD. This is a minor violation. 712 CFR 112.8(c)(6) Failed to perform tank inspections that take into account size, configuration, and design. API-653 Tank reports (dated 6-13-2012), prepared for the 450-gallon and the 1,750 gallon waste oil tanks, were reviewed at the time of inspection. No integrity testing reports were available for the rest of the onsite tanks. The reviewed API-653 Tank reports could only be utilized for these tanks, if these tanks were built according to the APA-650 standards. However, according to the reviewed API-653 Tank reports reports, these tanks (for which these integrity testing reports were prepared, the 450-gallon and the 1,750-gallon tanks), "were not built to any observed codes". Each aboveground container shall be tested and inspected for integrity on a regular schedule and whenever repairs are made. The qualifications of personnel performing tests and inspections, frequency and type of testing and inspections that take into account container size, configuration, and design shall be determined in accordance with industry standards. Examples of these integrity tests include, but are not limited to: visual inspection, hydrostatic testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, acoustic emissions testing, or other systems of non-destructive testing. Comparison records and other records of inspections and tests must be maintained on site. Immediately conduct the necessary testing and submit a copy of the test results to the EHD, or provide equivalence as allowed by CFR 112.7(a)(2). Submit proof of correction to the EHD. This is a Class II violation. Page 7 of 8
