The following hazardous waste totes, observed in the hazardous waste storage area, were missing the lid clamp <br />closures causing the lids to be insecure and not properly closed: <br /> A. A Toxic (TX) Hazardous Waste tote storing three plastic syringes and five bottles labeled as Enrofloxacin and <br />Baytril medication. The syringes and bottles appeared empty. According to Tawnya Jeffcoat, Merchandise Inventory <br />Leader, the medication and syringes were used to treat the facility's animals. <br /> B. A State Regulated (ST) Hazardous Waste tote storing a large plastic bag containing at least 50 non-empty <br />used plastic containers total of Davis Veterinary Products Ear Med Pro Cleanse (12 fl. oz.), Fetch Innovation <br />Unleashed Eye Wash (8 fl. oz.), and Hydrosurge shampoo and conditioner, all for dogs and/or cats.

An open cardboard box filled with several non-empty used plastic containers/packages of pet shampoos and <br />conditioners was observed in a back storage area of the Petsmart Grooming salon. Lyndie Shwinn, Grooming <br />Manager, did not know how long ago the containers of used shampoo and conditioners had began to accumulate <br />in the cardboard box. According to the PetSmart Potentially Hazardous Waste Management poster in the <br />hazardous waste storage area, pet shampoo and conditioner are classified as State Regulated (ST) Hazardous <br />Waste. <br /> <br />REGULATION GUIDANCE: A container holding hazardous waste shall always be closed during transfer and <br />storage, except when it is necessary to add or remove waste. <br />CORRECTIVE ACTION: Immediately properly close these containers or transfer all hazardous wastes into <br />containers that can be properly closed, and ensure all hazardous waste containers are closed when not adding or <br />removing waste. Provide a corrective action statement and supporting documentation to the San Joaquin County <br />Environmental Health Department within 30 days. <br />This is a Class II violation. <br />FA0018246 PR0540511 SC001 12/04/2019 <br />EHD 22-01 Rev. 9/20/2019 Small Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator OIRPage 12 of 16 <br />1868 E.
