The sulfuric acid is diluted on <br /> site from 98% to 93% and transferred from the tanks to trucks or rail cars. A containment system at the truck <br /> and rail racks collects water rinsate with trace sulfuric acid. The trucks and rail cars are rinsed with water to <br /> remove trace acid after truck and rail car filling. The rinsate is transferred to waste water tanks, pH adjusted and <br /> discharged to City of Stockton sewer. <br /> Pete Earnest updated the site contingency plan with the current emergency coordinator. The previous <br /> emergency coordinator no longer works for the company. <br /> FA0024887 PR0545073 SCO01 06/16/2020 <br /> EHD 22-01 Rev.9/20/2019 Page 5 of 6 Small Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator OIR <br /> 1868 E.
