Brian Gross, Environmental Scientist, Led The Inspection On Behalf Of The Usepa. The Inspectors Were Accompanied Throughout By Richard Dillen, Who Manages The Laboratory, And Lee Morris, Who Manages The Yard. The Facility Was Last Inspected By The Department On August 15, 2008. Howco Has A Used Oil Processing Permit Issued By The Department On July 7, 2007. | Howco Stores, Processes And Markets Used Oil And Is A Registered Used Oil Filter Transporter And Processor, As Well. Additionally, Howco Accepts Oily Waste Solids Which Are Processed And Solidified Prior To Disposal. As A Result Of The Lab Wastes Generated During Qa Testing, Howco Is Also A Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator Of Hazardous Waste (Cesqg). The Processes At The Facility Have Not Changed Since The Previous Inspection. During This Inspection, The Department Had The Opportunity To Inspect One Of Howco'S Transport Vehicles That Was Not Currently On The Road, And It Was Found To Be Equipped With Used Oil Testing Kits And Emergency Equipment, Such As Fire Extinguishers. Hazmat Supplies Are Stored In One Of Three Large Trailers On The South Side Of The Property. The Contents Of The Hazmat Trailer Included Drums Of Fire Suppression Foam, As Well As Spill Control Equipment. During The Inventory Of This Equipment, Is Was Determined That Some Of The Tyvek Suits Referenced On Howco'S Inventory List Were Significantly Deteriorated. It Is Recommended That Howco Inspect These These Items More Frequently To Ensure That There Is A Full Inventory Of Emergency Response Equipment, As Required By Part I.14(C) Of Its Permit. One Of The Facility'S Bullhorns Was Tested And Found To Be Operable. The Fire And Emergency Equipment Are Inspected Monthly And Tested Annually. At The Time Of This Inspection, Howco Was In The Process Of Replacing Its Condenser Unit, And Therefore, No Used Oil Processing Was Occurring. Howco Was Also Taking The Opportunity While The System Was Down To Replace Some Pumps, Valves, Etc. There Was Some Used Oil Observed Around These Work Areas, But Overall, The Secondary Containment Was Found To Be Free Of Used Oil And Stormwater. There Were Two 20-Cubic Yard Rolloffs Near The Wtu Sludge Processing Tanks That Contained Sludges Removed From The Cooker Tanks. The Rolloffs Were Labeled And Covered. Used Oil Was Observed In The Rolloffs, And Staff Said That It Seeps From The Sludge, Rises To The Surface And Is Transferred To The Processing Storage Tanks Daily Using A Vacuum Truck. When All The Free Liquid Is Removed From The Sludge, It Will Be Taken To Pinellas County'S Waste-To-Energy Facility For Incineration After Being Solidified With Mulch Provided By The County For This Purpose. It Was Observed That Although The Yard Was Much Cleaner Than In Previous Inspections, There Were Several Areas Where The Asphalt Was Completely Deteriorated And Lifting Off In Chunks. It Was Also Observed That A Large Part Of The Yard Was Blocked Off With Cones, And Mr. Morris Said That Howco Was Getting The Yard Recoated With Asphalt. Tampa Paving Constructors Has Been Contracted To Recoat The Rear Portion Of The Yard From The Washing Area To The Filter Block Loading Bay. It Was Noted That Some Of The Deteriorated Asphalt Was Outside This Specified Area, And Mr. Morris Was Directed To Please Recoat All Suspect Areas Of The Yard. When The Department Returned To The Facility To Review Records On 05-27-09, It Was Observed That The Yard Still Had Not Been Recoated. Given The Extremely Poor Condition Of Some Sections Of The Asphalt, Howco Needs To Recoat The Yard As Soon As Possible. Because Much Of The Yard Had Been Emptied Due To The Planned Recoating, The Used Oil
