generated from the June 1192" inspections consisted of the following violations: * Personnel training records were not available. * The contingency plan was incomplete. * Land disposal restriction forms were missing. * All manifests were not available for inspection. * Three violations for open hazardous waste containers were noted. * Four labeling violations were noted. * Decontamination equipment was not available in one hazardous waste storage area. A Certification Statement was submitted by E.R. Carpenter to demonstrate compliance on November 9, 1992 . On March 16, 1993 a diesel spill was reported. Approximately 30 gallons of fuel was spilled and a small amount entered the storm drain. E.R. Carpenter activated their contingency plan, and the spill was promptly cleaned up. Eric Trevena of PHS-EHD made all necessary notifications and witnessed the cleanup efforts. E.R. Carpenter uses City of Lathrop public drinking water inside the plant, however an irrigation well for watering the landscape is used outside. A septic system is used instead of public sewer even though public utilities exist in the area. A storm water retention pond is located east of the warehouse and is permitted by the California Water Quality Control Board. The Facility I.D. number is 5B39S006816. VI. HAZARDOUS WASTE ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Foam production of varying consistencies is performed in the southwest corner of the plant on one production line. The different products are manufactured by varying the chemical combinations of isocyanate (-NCO) , Polyol (-OH) , and water. The more water used in the foam formula, the greater the urea formation, the more rigid the foam. Blowing agents, like CFC-11 or methylene chloride, are used to further reduce foam density. No hazardous waste is generated in the manufacturing process, however, during the cleanup process, methylene chloride is used to clean the mixing manifold after rigid foam production (air is used to clean the manifold after foam production of less dense products due to a shorter chemical reaction or set-up time) . In 1993 1. 2 tons of methylene chloride was manifested for disposal to Oil and Solvent Process Company, 1704 W. First St. , Azusa, CA 91702 . A glue waste was generated from production and cleanup.
