<br /> Inspection Report IW-1031840
<br /> Conducted a joint inspection of Wilson Way Tire Company, Inc. (Wilson Way Tire):TPID 1000837,
<br /> located at 221 N. Wilson Way,Stockton,CA,with Harprit Mattu on December 03, 2015.We arrived at
<br /> the facility at 0950 and concluded the inspection at 1345. Harprit and I introduced ourselves to Jack
<br /> Presto, manager of Wilson Way Tire, indicating that we were at the facility for a routine waste tire
<br /> inspection.We were then referred to Rosie Pedrini,who is responsible for waste tires. Ms. Pedrini
<br /> indicated that she has been dealing with waste tires for the past 5-6 months, but also indicated that she
<br /> was worked at Wilson Way Tire for some time.
<br /> Harprit and I explained the inspection process to Ms. Pedrini and that it involved observing the posted
<br /> TPID certificate,conducting a waste tire count, a review of waste tire manifests, and checking registered
<br /> hauling vehicles.
<br /> Observations
<br /> Wilson Way Tire could not produce evidence of TPID certificate and Ms. Pedrini indicated that she has
<br /> never seen the certificate. In the comment section of report number 11-1210167, dated August 01, 2013,
<br /> a duplicate was requested by Paul Brink.The facility is in violation of 14 CCR,Section 18459.1 for not
<br /> having a TPID posted in a conspicuous place. I requested that duplicate TPID be sent to the facility on
<br /> December 8, 2015.
<br /> During our inspection, it was observed that the facility has waste tires stored indoors and outdoors. A
<br /> total of 2,796 waste tires were counted and various violations and area of concerns were observed while
<br /> conducting the inspection.To distinguish locations in the facility, it was subdivided into the following
<br /> areas: Indoor Storage,Area A,Area B, and Area C.Also see Site Boundary Map,Site Maps,Waste Tire
<br /> Calculations spreadsheet, and Photo Log in report for specifics and locations of tire counts.
<br /> The 2,796 waste tires exceeded the limit of waste tires allowed onsite for the sites business operations.
<br /> It was observed that the facility does not have tire retreader operation at location,therefore, it is not
<br /> excluded and unable to have up to 3,000 waste tires at location. Changes in Waste Tire Management
<br /> System (WTMS)were made to reflect current business operations. However,the facility is a new and
<br /> used tire dealer and is allowed to maintain up to 1,500 waste tires at location.This quantity is allowable
<br /> once the Permit Exclusion Notification form is completed and turned into Calrecycle (Department), as
<br /> seen in 14 CCR,Section 18431.2(a).An area of concern is being issued to the facility because it has not
<br /> completed and returned a Permit Exclusion Notification form. Furthermore, because the facility
<br /> exceeded the exclusion limit of 1,500 waste tires for a new and used tire dealers, it is in violation of the
<br /> following permit requirements: PRC§42834, minor waste tire permit; 14 CCR, Section 18420(a),
<br /> applicable for permit; 14 CCR,Section 18423,filing application for permit; 14 CCR,Section 18432,
<br /> Operations Plan;and 14 CCR,Section 18433,emergency response plan.
<br /> In Indoor Storage, located in northern and eastern portion of facility, 152 waste tires were observed.All
<br /> waste tires indoors were individually counted. While inspecting this area, it was observed that the
<br /> facility only had a square point shovel and 10-foot pike pole,and not a round point shovel,and is in
<br /> violation of 14 CCR,Section 17351(c)(3). No other violations were observed in this area.
<br /> In Area A, located in northern part of facility,410 waste tires were observed. 56 waste tires were
<br /> individually counted and remaining waste tire count was estimated by volumetric calculation of barrel
<br /> stacked truck tires, using 4.2 truck tires per cubic yard(CY). Dimension of pile was 25'X 19'X 6'= 105.55
