The following observations were made in the hazardous waste(HW)storage area of the facility(see photos IMG 7383-4): 1.A bag containing used absorbent, and labeled "Snuggle"and with UPC#077180111,was found in the Corrosive Bases(CB)HW tote. The Non-Saleable Hazardous Material Checklist document, also adhered to the tote, stated the Snuggle was a detergent, although Snuggle is known to be fabric softener(a laundry additive). When Samira Hamed,Assistant Store Manager, entered the Snuggle UPC number into the hand held scanner,the scanner stated "Product Not Found."According to the Big Lot's Waste Disposal Quick Reference Guide posted on a wall next to the HW storage area, soaps and detergents are classified as Toxic HW and "some laundry additives"are classified as Corrosive Acid HW. Samira was not sure why the used absorbent containing Snuggle was placed in the CB HW tote.

(IMG 7411-20) 3. Spillage of Comet with Bleach Powder was found on the sales shelf containing several containers of Comet Bleach Powder. One Comet container on the shelf was found with an open damaged seal.When Samira scanned the item, the handheld scanner stated the California Generic Waste Code was TX.
