The following is an itemized list of aboveground petroleum storage act violations that have not been addressed for J & L MARKET as of August 05, 2022. Open violations from May 23, 2022 inspection Violation#706-Failed to provide and maintain adequate secondary containment for bulk storage tanks. OBSERVATION: The facility failed to provide and maintain secondary containment for bulk storage tank installations sufficient to hold the capacity of the largest container, including adequate freeboard for precipitation. Per the July 13, 2019 inspection report, Professional Engineer certified secondary containment calculations dated 08/09/2011 stated that the secondary containment for the 10, 000 tank only holds 6, 942 gallons. Since the tank capacity is 10,000 gallons,the amount in the secondary containment appears to be not enough to hold the entire capacity of the tank and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. Dark oily staining was observed around the secondary containment. REGULATION GUIDANCE: (c)(2)Construct all bulk storage tank installations(except mobile refuelers and other non-transportation-related tank trucks)so that you provide a secondary means of containment for the entire capacity of the largest single container and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. You must ensure that diked areas are sufficiently impervious to contain discharged oil. Dikes, containment curbs, and pits are commonly employed for this purpose. You may also use an alternative system consisting of a drainage trench enclosure that must be arranged so that any discharge will terminate and be safely confined in a facility catchment basin or holding pond. CORRECTIVE ACTION: Immediately provide and maintain adequate secondary containment for the 10,000 gallon diesel bulk storage tank. Submit proof of correction to the EHD. ❑ This violation was corrected ❑This violation will be corrected by(date): ❑ Supporting documents included Describe actions taken or will be taken to correct violation: Violation#713-Failed to test or inspect each container for integrity based on industry standards. OBSERVATION: Per Owner Karina Valdez,testing/inspections have not been conducted on the 10,000 gallon aboveground diesel tank for integrity based on industry standards. REGULATION GUIDANCE: REGULATION GUIDANCE: 112.8(c)(6)Test or inspect each aboveground container for integrity on a regular schedule and whenever you make material repairs.You must determine, in accordance with industry standards,the appropriate qualifications for personnel performing tests and inspections,the frequency and type of testing and inspections,which take into account container size, configuration, and design (such as containers that are: shop-built,field-erected, skid-mounted, elevated, equipped with a liner, double-walled, or partially buried). 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.You must keep comparison records and you must also inspect the container's supports and foundations. In addition, you must frequently inspect the outside of the container for signs of deterioration,discharges,or accumulation of oil inside diked areas. Records of inspections and tests kept under usual and customary business practices satisfy the recordkeeping requirements of this paragraph. 112.7(e) Inspections,tests, and records. Conduct inspections and tests required by this part in accordance with written procedures that you or the certifying engineer develop for the facility.You must keep these written procedures and a record of the inspections and tests, signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector,with the SPCC Plan for a period of three years. Records of inspections and tests kept under usual and customary business practices will suffice for purposes of this paragraph. CORRECTIVE ACTION: Immediately conduct the necessary integrity testing and inspections on the 10,000 gallon aboveground storage tank based on industry standards, on a regular schedule. Maintain testing and inspection records. Submit a copy of the test/inspection results to the EHD. Page 5 of 6
