I'll send you the records that Stericycle sent me the go back to June 1 you'll see the weight for <br />each month <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />On Mar 12, 2020, at 11:41 AM, Easter, Jesse <jeaster@sjgov.org> wrote: <br />Good Morning Mr. Garrison, <br />The California Health and Safety Code § 117680 defines a Large Quantity Generator as "a medical waste <br />generator, other than a trauma scene waste management practitioner, that generates 200 or more <br />pounds of medical waste in any month of a 12 -month period." <br />At the time of the inspection, you stated that records were only available from the time <br />management changed on June 1, 2019. During the nine months since then, the facility has already <br />exceeded the 200 -pound threshold of medical waste shipped from the facility in a given <br />month. Given that the previous operator of the facility was a declared Large Quantity Generator <br />and that insufficient records were available to determine your current generator status, declaring <br />your facility as a Small Quantity Generator would appear to be premature without a plausible <br />explanation as to why the facility now generates significantly less waste than before. We can revisit <br />this matter once more records are available and a 12 -month period has passed when the facility has <br />evidence in the form of shipping and tracking records that it generates less than 200 pounds of <br />medical waste per month. <br />As a reminder, the compliance date for corrections due from the routine inspection is Monday <br />March 16, 2020. <br />Jesse Easter, REHS <br />San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department <br />1868 E.
