An inspection and/or testing program is implemented for all aboveground bulk storage I <br /> containers and piping at this facility ( I 12 . 8 (c)( 6) and (d) (4) ; I I2 . 9 (c)(3 ) ; 112 . 12(c) (6) <br /> and (d) (4) <br /> The following is a description of the inspection and/or testing program (e . g . , reference to industry <br /> standard utilized, scope, frequency, method of inspection or test, and person conducting the <br /> inspection) for all above ground bulk storage containers and piping at this facility : <br /> • Inspections of the aboveground bulk tank storage containers and piping are conducted on a <br /> monthly basis per the facility ' s Hazardous Material Business Plan (HMBP) (CERS ) . <br /> Inspections consist of making sure the storage area is free of spills or leaks, containers are <br /> properly labeled, containers are within secondary containment (as applicable), labels are <br /> complete and visible, containers are sealed with tight fitting lids/bungs, and incompatibles <br /> are properly segregated . The hazardous waste storage areas are inspected weekly . Both <br /> monthly and weekly inspections are documented using the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department inspection form . An employee who has received <br /> training on how to conduct the visual inspection conducts inspections and initials the <br /> inspection log. The log is part of the facility operating records and is maintained on file for <br /> a minimum of 3 -years . A copy of the inspection checklist used for the monthly/weekly <br /> inspections is/are included with the HMBP . <br /> • Concerning tank integrity testing, the Steel Tank Institute Standard for Inspection of <br /> Aboveground Storage Tanks, SP001 classifies an above ground tank with continuous <br /> release detection or one within secondary containment as a Category 1 Tank . Category 1 <br /> Tanks containing less than 5000 gallons require monthly and yearly inspections by the tank <br /> owner or a designated employee . SI and S8 are classified as Category 1 Tanks . The <br /> facility ' s weekly/monthly inspection is sufficient to meet the monthly inspection standard . <br /> Annually, a Supervisor or Manager will conduct detailed visual inspection of each source <br /> ( S1 through S9 ) . The annual inspection is documented using the inspection log provided <br /> in the attachments . <br /> • S2 through S7 are portable/mobile tanks that are used and stored inside the shop; as such <br /> the tanks are under constant surveillance by facility personnel who work in the shop . Each <br /> tank has casters (wheels) attached that provide about 4-inches of clearance from the <br /> ground, which allows for a visual inspection of all sides . S2 through S7 adhere to the same <br /> inspection schedule as Sl . Any tank leaks associated with S2 , S3 , and S4 will be reported <br /> to the Facility ' s oil supplier . <br /> • PG&E is responsible for the operation and maintenance of S9 . The transformer is locked, <br /> which prohibits the facility from accessing the unit for inspection . If an obvious leak or <br /> release is observed on the exterior of the transformer, the facility will notify PG&E <br /> immediately . <br /> Inspections, tests , and records are conducted in accordance with written procedures 0 <br /> developed for the facility. Records of inspections and test kept under usual and <br /> customary business practices will suffice for purposes of this paragraph . ( § 112 . 7 (e)) <br /> A record of the inspections and tests are kept at the facility or with the SPCC Plan for a 0 <br /> period of three (3 ) years . ( § I12 . 7 (e)) <br /> Inspections and tests are signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector ( § 112 . 7 (e)) 0 <br /> Personnel, training, and discharge prevention procedures ( § 112 . 70) <br /> Oil-handling personnel are trained in the operation and maintenance of equipment to 0 <br /> prevent discharges ; discharge procedure protocols; applicable pollution control laws, <br /> rules, and regulations ; general facility operations; and, the contents of the facility SPCC <br /> Plan . ( § 112 . 70) <br /> A person who reports to facility management is designated and accountable for Q <br /> discharge prevention .
