2455 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, GA 30339 <br /> November 15, 2022 <br /> DELIVERY VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL <br /> Mr. Garrett Backus <br /> San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department <br /> 1868 E. Hazelton Ave. <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 <br /> RE: CUPA Inspection Report <br /> Home Depot Store#1022 <br /> 5010 Feather River Dr. <br /> Stockton, CA 95219 <br /> Dear Mr. Backus: <br /> This letter is being provided on behalf of The Home Depot U.S.A., Inc.'s Stockton Store#1022 ("The Home <br /> Depot") and in response to the CUPA Inspection Report issued on October 12, 2022. The Home Depot has <br /> reviewed the report and provides the following information in response to the alleged violations: <br /> 1. The facility has a Minute Key copy machine. The on-site personnel did not know how the key <br /> metal shaving waste is handled and its final disposition. The Home Depot is a co-generator of <br /> this waste with the Minute Key company. <br /> RESPONSE: The Home Depot does not service or maintain the MinuteKey machine at Store#6660. <br /> The Machine is serviced by Hillman Group approximately once a month by a local service <br /> representative. According to the vendor, the service representative collects the key shavings and <br /> removes them from the store for recycling at Schnitzer Steel. <br /> 2. This facility, a large quantity generator, does not have a source reduction plan on site for the <br /> year 2018. <br /> RESPONSE: Based on The Home Depot's review of 2018 waste data and DTSC's SB-14 exemptions <br /> (i.e., a waste has no source reduction opportunities or is not routinely generated), a source reduction <br /> plan is not applicable to the store. A copy of the assessment used to make this determination is <br /> enclosed for your review. <br /> 3. The Hazardous Waste contingency plan was not observed on-site during the inspection. The <br /> contingency plan, written by Arcadis and dated June 21, 2022, was provided to the San Joaquin <br /> County Environmental Health Department(EHD) earlier in 2022 <br /> RESPONSE: The store's hazardous waste contingency plan is available to the store through an online <br /> portal accessible through The Home Depot's intranet system. Portal access has been reviewed with <br /> store management to ensure onsite accessibility of the plan during future inspections. <br />
