SAN J O A Q U I N Environmental Health Department t-, ;\,l I AMENDED 2/26/2020 Large Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator Inspection Report Facility Name: Facility Address: Date: HOLT OF CALIFORNIA 1521 W CHARTER WAY, STOCKTON February 13, 2020 SUMMARY OF VIOLATIONS (CLASS I,CLASS II,or MINOR-Notice to Comply) Item# Remarks 503 CCR 66265.192(k) Hazardous waste tank assessment is incomplete. OBSERVATION: This facility has hazardous waste tanks with incomplete tank assessments.The tank assessment dated 8/21/15 for the 1,000 gallon used oil tank was missing the following components: 1. Discussion of the adequacy of the foundation, structural support,seams, connections, and pressure controls; 2. Discussion of whether the tank foundations will maintain the load of a full tank; 3. Discussion of whether the tank system will withstand the effects of frost heave; 4. Material thickness(excluding manufacturer specifications)and the method used to determine the thickness; 5. Dimensions of the tank on the tank sketch/drawing; 6. Hazardous characteristics of the waste(s)that have been or will be handled;and 7. Discussion of whether the ancillary equipment is supported and protected against physical damage and excessive stress due to settlement,vibration, expansion or contraction REGULATION GUIDANCE: Title 22 California Code of Regulations section 66265.192(a) Owners or operators of new tank systems or components shall ensure that the foundation,structural support, seams, connections, and pressure controls(if applicable)are adequately designed and that the tank system has sufficient structural strength, compatibility with the waste(s)to be transferred, stored or treated, and corrosion protection so that it will not collapse, rupture, or fail.The owner or operator shall obtain a written assessment reviewed and certified by an independent, qualified, professional engineer, registered in California in accordance with section 66270.11(d)attesting that the system has sufficient structural integrity, is acceptable for the transferring, storing and treating of hazardous waste, and that the tanks and containment system are suitably designed to achieve the requirements of this article.This assessment shall be obtained prior to placing the tank system in service,and shall be kept on file at the facility.This assessment shall also include, at a minimum,the following information: (1) design standard(s)according to which the tank(s) and ancillary equipment are or will be constructed; (2) hazardous characteristics of the waste(s)to be handled; (3)for new tank systems or components in which the external shell of a metal tank or any external metal component of the tank system is or will be in contact with the soil or with water, a determination by a corrosion expert of: (A)factors affecting the potential for corrosion, including but not limited to: 1. soil moisture content; 2. soil pH; 3. soil sulfides level; 4. soil resistivity; 5. structure to soil potential; 6. influence of nearby underground metal structures(e.g., piping); 7. stray electric current; and, 8. existing corrosion-protection measures(e.g., coating,cathodic protection), and (B)the type and degree of external corrosion protection that are needed to ensure the integrity of the tank system during the use of the tank system or component, consisting of one or more of the following: 1. corrosion-resistant materials of construction such as special alloys or fiberglass-reinforced plastic; 2. corrosion-resistant coating(such as epoxy or fiberglass)with cathodic protection (e.g., impressed current or sacrificial anodes); and 3. electrical isolation devices such as insulating joints and flanges; (4)for underground tank system components that are likely to be affected by vehicular traffic,a determination of FA0005303 PRO507077 SCO01 02/13/2020 EHD 22-02 Rev.9/20/2019 Page 15 of 26 Large Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator OIR 1868 E.
