Environmental Health Department CP22 - AST Non-Qualified Inspection Report Date: May 21, 2024 Facility Address: 2800 TURNPIKE RD, STOCKTON Facility Name: VALLEY FARMS TRANSPORT SUMMARY OF VIOLATIONS (CLASS I, CLASS II, or MINOR - Notice to Comply) RemarksItem # CORRECTIVE ACTION: Discharge prevention briefings for oil handling personnel must be scheduled and conducted at least once a year to assure adequate understanding of the SPCC Plan for that facility. Conduct all required spill prevention briefings. Provide compliance verification to the EHD. This is (Minor) Violation. Code of Fed Regulations 112.8(b)(1) 4030035 - Facility drainage adequately restrained unless conditions met. OBSERVATION: Failed to adequately use valves to restrain drainage from diked storage areas. The drainage valve for the secondary containment of AST -1 (diesel) was observed in the open position at the time of inspection. REGULATION GUIDANCE: (1) Restrain drainage from diked storage areas by valves to prevent a discharge into the drainage system or facility effluent treatment system , except where facility systems are designed to control such discharge. You may empty diked areas by pumps or ejectors ; however, you must manually activate these pumps or ejectors and must inspect the condition of the accumulation before starting, to ensure no oil will be discharged. CORRECTIVE ACTION: Ensure that drainage valves remain closed to prevent discharge from diked areas. Submit proof of correction to the EHD. This is (Class 2) Violation. 42 Code of Fed Regulations 112.8(c)(2) 4030010 - Adequately sized secondary containment provided and maintained for bulk storage containers. 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. -The sized secondary containment for AST -1 (diesel fuel) discussed in the SPCC Plan and the sized containment calculations provided with the SPCC Plan are outdated and based on the 10,000-gallon capacity diesel tank that is no longer on site. -The plan does not include discussion of or calculations for the sized secondary containment of AST -1 (diesel fuel) currently on site. Manager Erik Sandoval stated that the tank on site at the time of inspection has a capacity of 15,546 gallons. 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 following bulk storage tanks: AST-1 containing diesel fuel. Submit proof of correction to the EHD. This is (Class 2) Violation. 48 Code of Fed Regulations 112.8(c)(3)(iv) 4010026 - Records maintained of drainage from diked areas. OBSERVATION: Adequate records of drainage of uncontaminated rainwater from diked areas were not found on site. -The SPCC Plan states that records of draining activities are to be recorded using the Secondary Containment 52 FA0003774 PR0516358 SC001 05/21/2024 EHD Rev. 12/06/2021 CP22 - AST Non-Qualified OIRPage 9 of 12 1868 E.
