Routine; Hazardous Waste Transporter - Routine; Used Oil Transporter - Routine; Universal Waste Transporter - Routine; Hazardous Waste Transfer Facility - Routine; Used Oil Transfer Facility - Routine; Used Oil Processor - Routine; Used Oil Marketer Permafix Of Ft. Lauderdale (Pffl) Is A Permitted Facility Authorized To Process Used Oil, Oily Wastewater, Petroleum Contact Water, Oily Solid Waste, And Used Oil Filters. Pffl Is A Hazardous Waste Transporter And Transfer Station. The Facility Is Situated On A 2.5 Acre Site In Light Industrial Area, And Is Served By City Water And Sewer. Pffl Has Operated From This Site For 13 Years And Employs 25 People.
The Participants In The Inspection Were Department Personnel Kathy Winston And Jeremy Vincent, And Pffl Site Manager, John (Shawn) Lennon.
Inspection History - The Department Is Required To Inspect Pffl At Least Every Two Years. Inspections Were Conducted In 2007 And Before That In 2006. In Each Case, Few, If Any, Items Were Requested And The Facility Was Brought Back Into Compliance Without Enforcement.
| Used Oil And Oily Wastewater Are Received In The Tank Farm Area Located In The Southeast Portion Of The Site. Used Oil Is Offloaded Into Two 20,000-Gallon Aboveground Tanks. The Used Oil Is Filtered, And Then Allowed To Sit For Further Oil/Water Separation. The Processed Oil Is Tested For Compliance With On-Specification Standards, And Is Sold As Fuel Oil To Pffl Customers. The Oily Wastewater Is Transferred For Storage In One Of Seven Tanks. The Oily Water Is Filtered, And Then Transferred To A Boiler Tank Where It Is Heated To 150 ° F For Oil/Water Separation. An Emulsifier Is Added To Facilitate Further Oil/Water Separation And The Temperature Is Raised To 200 ° F, Then The Process Is Shut Down. The Water Readily Separates From The Oil, And The Oil Is Diverted To A Holding Tank.
Used Oil Filters Are Not Consolidated But Sent In Generator Containers To Us Foundry In Medley,Florida. Oily Solid Wastes Are Consolidated Into A Rolloff Container For Disposal At The Central Landfill In Pompano Beach, Florida.
Inspection - The Facility Inspection Revealed Only One Hazardous Waste Management Issue; Some Of The Universal Waste Lamps In The Transfer Facility Area Storage Were Not Labeled Per The State Regulation. All The Boxes That Were Easily Inspected Appeared To Have Universal Waste Stickers On Them But Did Not Say "Mercury Containing Lamps For Recycling" Or Any Of The Other Acceptable Labeling Phrases Per The State Regulations. See The Potential Violations Area Of This Report For The Department'S Recommendation On This Matters.
Records Review - Inspectors Reviewed Acceptance And Delivery Logs For Both Hazardous Waste And Used Oil. Bills Of Lading And Manifests Were Also Compared To The Logs Mentioned Above And Found To Be In Order. Training Records And Facility Inspection Logs Were Available. Two Record Keeping Deficiencies Were Noted. The Contingency Plan Did Not Include The Home Addresses Of The Primary And Secondary Emergency Coordinator. The Other Deficiency Also Involved The Contingency Plan; The Contingency Plan Did Not Have The State Warning Point Number Included On The List Of Places To Call In Case Of A Spill Of A Reportable Quantity Of Any Substances.
| Based On The Inspection, Pffl Appears To Generate Less Than 100 Kg Of Hazardous Waste Per Month Which Would Classify Them As A Conditionally Exempted Small Quantity Generator (Cesqg), However, As A Permitted Facility Pffl Has Obligations Beyond Their Generation Status. An Exit Interview Was Conducted At The Conclusion Of The Inspection Which Addressed The Potential Violations Listed Above.
The Facility Was Found To Be Out Of Compliance At The Time Of The Inspection. The Facility Was Given 14 Days To Return To Compliance. | I Want You To Note I Am Submitting A Inspection Report From A Facility I Inspect Yesterday! Amazing, Huh! | Submitted For Approval By Winston, Kathy |
