i <br /> include this alarm (enclosed). Additionally, please see the enclosed letter from <br /> Lance York, designated operator for this facility. The monthly report has been <br /> amended (enclosed) and placed in the UST Compliance binder during the <br /> designated operator inspection on 5/20/2014, and the incorrect paperwork has been <br /> removed to prevent any confusion in the future. <br /> PFJ has reviewed the proper procedure for documenting alarms and maintaining <br /> paperwork with both the facility and the designated operator. Although this specific <br /> alarm was not logged, it is PFJ's position that all alarms were monitored and <br /> responded to appropriately, and that PFJ has consistently operated this facility in <br /> compliance with the Permit to Operate and other regulations as required by the EHD. <br /> 4. A fuel leak was found at the sump of the Bio-diesel shed. All primary containment <br /> must be product tight. Immediately discontinue use of the failed piping and have a <br /> properly licensed, trained, and certified contractor replace or repair the failed piping <br /> under permit and inspection of the EHD. If the failed component can't be replaced <br /> immediately, there is a possibility that the Bio-diesel UST system may be red tagged <br /> to prevent fuel inputs. <br /> As previously stated, fuel was discovered in the Bio-diesel sump in the blending <br /> shed. Upon discovery, Bio-diesel was disabled and Jones Covey technicians were <br /> dispatched to investigate and repair the failed piping. In accordance with the repair <br /> permit obtained by Jones Covey technicians (enclosed), the Bio-diesel was <br /> inspected and approved to operate by the EHD on 5/22/2014. <br /> 5. (Repeat) Liquid was observed in the STP sumps of three diesel LISTs. If water could <br /> enter into the secondary containment by precipitation or infiltration, it must be <br /> removed and disposed of properly. Immediately remove this liquid, make a <br /> hazardous waste determination per Title 22 hazardous waste regulations, and <br /> manage it accordingly. Ensure that the sumps are maintained free of liquid. <br /> Liquid found in the sumps was determined to be water and was removed <br /> immediately. The weekly RMT inspection from 5/12/2014 shows that all sumps were <br /> clean and dry, and the amount of liquid found during the inspection was not enough <br /> to trigger a fuel alarm. PFJ personnel will continue to maintain all secondary <br /> containment free of liquid. <br /> 6. (Repeat) The diesel UST (Tank 5 and Tank 4) spill containers failed when tested. All <br /> spill containers shall have a minimum capacity of five gallons and be capable of <br /> containing a spill or overfill until it is detected or cleaned up. Immediately discontinue <br /> deposition of petroleum into this tank until the component is repaired or replaced by <br /> a properly licensed, trained, and certified contractor under permit and inspection of <br /> the EHD. If the spill container can't be replaced immediately, there is a possibility <br /> that the UST system may be red tagged to prevent fuel inputs. <br /> The failed components were replaced on 5/14/2014, although a witnessed retest was <br /> requested by the EHD. The enclosed Work Order from Jones Covey (#26695) <br /> verifies that the spill buckets passed on 5/16/2014. A copy of the test report will be <br /> submitted by Jones Covey per the EHD requirements. RECEIVED <br /> JUN 16 2014 <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH <br /> PERMIT/SERVICES <br />
