State of California Department of Corrections& Rehabilitation <br /> Memorandum <br /> Date July 22, 2016 JUL 2 b 2016 <br /> To San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department <br /> Attn.: Elena Manzo, Senior REHS <br /> From: CDCR - Deuel Vocational Institution <br /> SUBJECT: Return to Compliance Statement <br /> This Statement is to response to the Aboveground Storage Act Inspection Report at Deuel <br /> Vocational Institution on several deficiencies that have been noted during facility inspection on May <br /> 24-25, 2016, as specified below: <br /> The violation identified as #102 and #720 were corrected and addressed in a certified letter dated <br /> June 20, 2016. For item #102, Prison Industry Authority will be arranging to have the closed tanks <br /> shipped or picked up by a metal recycling operation for disposal. For item #720 the single wall <br /> portable tank will continue to be maintained on a secondary containment pallet, however it will be <br /> recommended that the tank is replaced with a new double wall tank which will also be stored on a <br /> secondary spill pallet. Storage of fuel in current and future replacement tank will be limited to 20 <br /> gallons when not in use. The SPCC plan will be updated with this information and when the tank is <br /> replaced. <br /> Violations #201, 301, 303, 604, 613 & 617 referencing the DVI SPCC plan are being addressed with <br /> a revised SPCC plan and is being processed through the Archetictural and Engineering Department <br /> of CDCR. Due to the need to provide secondary containment and leak detection systems for single <br /> wall tanks, the revised plan will not be completed until secondary containment is developed and <br /> leak detection systems purchased. Alternatively, the Environmental and Regulatory Compliance <br /> Section, Facility Management, Planning and Construction is developing recommendations to <br /> replace tanks with double wall tanks and leak detection systems. Due to the Department of General <br /> Services requirements for tank installations, the purchasing, permitting, inspection, approval and <br /> installation process may take up to 6 months. DVI will update the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department on the progress of this action as the status changes. DVI will <br /> ensure regular inspections on these tanks to ensure integrity. <br /> # 613—CFR 112.7(e)—failure to conduct inspections or maintain records for 3 years. <br /> Facility has conducted required regular monthly inspections of all ASTs, including 180 gal Flood <br /> Control Ditch pump in question. Copies of 3 years inspection check lists are attached to this <br /> Statement. However in order to improve our records keeping practices we have trained responsible <br /> staff members to utilize inspection form that is specified in our Plan. <br /> # 617—CFR 112.7(g)—Plan failed to address lighting provisions. <br /> Current Plan is addressing lighting provisions for each tank at Table A-1. However as current Plan is <br /> under revision and per your recommendations we will address general lighting and security in <br /> CDC 1617(3/89) <br />
