SAN JOANN Environmental Health Department AM LADED 8/20/2019 Small Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator Inspection Report Facility Name: Facility Address: 1 Date: Dollar General #14661 1940 McHenry Ave. Escalon Au ust 14, 2019 SUMMARY OF VIOLATIONS (CLASS I, CLASS II, or MINOR - Notice to Comply) Item # Remarks 106 CCR 66262.34(d)(2) Failed to train employees on waste handling and emergency procedures. Based on the types of violations observed, the facility employees are not trained on proper hazardous waste (HW) handling or the training provided has been inadequate. 1. The following waste items were found bagged and inside a HW tote labeled as Toxic HW (IMG 8287-8293, 8300-4): - A Clairol Frost & Tip hair coloring kit, which the hand held scanner stated should be placed in the Toxic HW tote. However, the hair coloring kit package listed highlighting powder, developing creme, and CC Colorseal Conditioner, each of which is made up of a different list of ingredients. Only the container of developing creme was found inside the kit. According to the package label, the highlighting powder contains sodium metasilicate, which according to the DG HW guidance poster should be placed in the Alkaline HW tote. The developing creme contains hydrogen peroxide, which according to the DG HW guidance poster should be placed in the Oxidizer HW tote. The CC Colorseal Conditioner contain alcohols, fragrance, and oil, which according to the DG HW guidance poster should be placed in the Flammable HW tote. David placed the developing creme into the Oxidizer HW tote at the time of inspection. - A nearly empty and leaky container of Cranberry Premium (liquid) Hand Soap, without any spill clean-up material to account for the missing liquid. David Barajas, Store Manager, did not know what happened to the liquid that was once in the container. According to David, when a product is used by employees to clean the facility or "store -used," an employee will mark the item with a code that is generated once the item is taken out of the store's inventory. The Cranberry hand soap was not marked with such a code, while a nearly empty container of Aloe Cream Soap was marked with a "store -use" code. - A nearly empty container of Palmolive Ultra Dish Liquid soap, without any spill clean-up material to account for the missing liquid. The container was not marked with a "store -use" code. David did not know what happened to the liquid that was once in the container. 2. When asked how cardboard boxes, which become contaminated from leakage or spillage of a chemical product, are managed, David stated the cardboard is recycled. The generator must ensure that all employees who handle hazardous waste are thoroughly familiar with proper waste handling and emergency procedures. Provide proof of re-training and training materials to the EHD for employees whose responsibilities include hazardous waste. This is a Class II violation.
