Based on the types of violations observed,the facility employees are not trained on proper hazardous waste(HW) handling or the training provided has been inadequate. -A State-Regulated, Toxics, Electronics, OTC Pharmaceuticals, Universal Waste(STOU)HW tote with an accumulation start date of 4/10/19,was marked"solid"for the physical state, and contained the following(IMG 5353): -An empty bottle of Assured Instant Hand Sanitizer(IMG 5354-5).When Sandra Rodriguez, assistant store manager,scanned the item the hand-held scanner prompted her to place the sanitizer into the AF HW tote(IMG 5356). Sandra placed the hand sanitizer in the AF HW tote. -The Toon Studio Princess alcohol free hand sanitizer(IMG 5359-60). - Very Vanilla anti-bacterial hand gel(IMG 5366). -An empty bottle of Assured Instant Hand Sanitizer(IMG 536405). According to a document titled"Products To Be Treated As Hazardous Waste"found in the HW storage area, all hand sanitizers are to be placed in the AF HW tote. Sandra placed the hand sanitizer in the AF HW tote. -A partially empty bottle of Palmolive dish soap(IMG 5366). -An empty container of Suavitel fabric softener(IMG 5367). -A partially empty bottle of April Bath&Shower Lavender&Chamomile Bubble Bath(IMG 5368-9). -An empty bottle of White Rain Body Wash bagged with a small amount of saturated used absorbent(IMG 5370). -An empty bottle of LA's Totally Awesome Bang Bathroom&Shower Cleaner(IMG 5371). -A bag of used absorbent,which appeared fairly dry, and lacked a label as to what item the absorbent was used to clean up(IMG 5372). According to Sandra, she did not know what happened to the liquid that was once contained in the empty containers, but indicated that the empty containers were likely from floor spills or leaks. According to Sandra, floor spills are cleaned up by using kitty litter to absorb the spill and then placing the used absorbent in a bag with the item that spilled and into the appropriate HW tote. Only a small amount of used absorbent was observed inside the STOU HW tote, but not enough to account for the full volume of liquids from the empty containers. -Sandra pointed out that the hand-held scanner will state Luminessence Scented Candles are"Not Hazardous," however according to the"Products To Be Treated As Hazardous Waste"document found in the HW storage area, all candles(including electric and LED)are to be placed in the STOU HW tote(IMG 5374-6, 5378). Sandra stated that she and the rest of the management team will follow whatever the scanner tells them to do. -An Aerosols, Flammables and Combustibles(AF)HW tote with accumulation start date 2/3/19 contained an empty container of Swan Nail Polish Remover. Sandra did not know what happened to the liquid that was once contained in the empty container, but indicated the nail polish remover may have spilled.There was no absorbent observed inside the AF HW tote at the time of inspection(IMG 5379, 5381). -An open black bucket,found on the top shelf of the HW storage area, contained a bag of used paper towels labeled as hazardous waste, and absorbent that appeared to be unused at the bottom of the bucket(IMG 5382-4). Sandra did not know who placed the bag of paper towels in the bucket, nor did she know what the paper towels had been used to clean. According to page 17 of the Dollar Tree California Training Guide on Hazardous Waste Handling and Processing Procedures,found near the HW storage area at the time of inspection,when cleaning up a spill,the outside of the bag used for used paper towels and other cleanup materials should be marked"with the name of the spilled product and the contents(e.g. Laundry Detergent Cleanup Materials)"(IMG 5352).
