You stated that the oily wipes <br /> from Alpine are taken to Mexico for processing. Please explain how that works: <br /> 1. Are the wipes laundered and returned to the facility or are they disposed of? <br /> 2. What type of shipping papers are used to haul the soiled wipes to Mexico? Can you provide a few of the recent <br /> shipping papers? <br /> 3. How does the site segregate out the soiled wipes being hauled to Mexico vs ones being processed in <br /> Stockton? The invoices show the wipes going to the Hunter St address in Stockton. <br /> Please see the attached invoice from another facility, Stockton Auto Dismantlers,for soiled oily wipers being hauled to <br /> Hunter St in Stockton for laundering. How are wipers from this client handled? <br /> Has the sludge waste been tested for acute aquatic toxicity? <br /> Thank you, <br /> Garrett Backus, Ld.

Sludge waste of this type should also be tested for acute aquatic <br /> toxicity per Title 22 California Code of Regulations section 66261.24(a)(6)to determine if it's a non-RCRA hazardous <br /> waste. The hazardous waste determination on the sludge is incomplete. <br /> The facility also needs to update the California Environmental Reporting System https://cers.calepa.ca.gov/ and answer <br /> "yes"to the business activities questions "Does your facility generate Hazardous Waste" and "Does your facility treat <br /> hazardous waste". <br /> i <br />
