Called the <br />phone number given and left a voicemail to get more information about the spill for <br />the general operations manager, doc supervisor and shift supervisor. Also called <br />the Environmental Contact who provided a different call person for spills. Left that <br />person a voicemail. Called both emergency contacts in CERS and left voicemails. <br />Spoke with lead senior and it was decided that we should visit the facility. <br />Drove to facility with Shewit Woldearegay. While driving, received a call back from <br />Isaac Mackey, General Operations Manager who said they are in the process of <br />cleaning the spill up and will meet us at the entrance and walk us to the spill. <br />Arrived on site approximately 3:23pm and met with Isaac Mackey. Isaac showed <br />us a hazardous waste drum where they have placed the punctured bucket and <br />residual contents. Per Isaac, approximately 2/3 of the drum was spilled after the <br />bucket was puncture by a forklift unloading the package of buckets. The spill <br />location was outside of the warehouse where the truck trailers load and unload <br />items. The spill had absorbent placed on the spill and was in the process of being <br />swept. There was one 25-gallon drum of debris generated from the spill. Shift <br />Manager, Mark Erdmann stated that they called their hazardous materials <br />company for assistance on how they should clean up the spill and hazards related <br />and equipment needed to clean the spill. The hazardous materials company <br />informed them to use absorbent to clean the spill. The trailer was brought back to <br />the spill area so we could look at the trailer, it did not appear to have residual <br />material inside. Per Isaac, the trailer is being kept away from the other trailers in <br />the meantime to air out. The absorbent sand was adhering to the asphalt and was <br />a gummy/tacky texture. Absorbent sand will be placed on the area to hopefully <br />better absorb the spill overnight. Tomorrow morning the area will be swept up <br />again. There were cones placed around the spill and absorbent to secure the <br />area. A copy of the shipping slip for the punctured shipment was provided and a <br />copy of the SDS. <br />10/15/2021 Created complaint. Generated Prop65 for mailing. Placed Prop65 in mailing bin.
