Routine; Transporter On January 18, 2011 Janine Kraemer, Florida Department Of Environmental Protection (Fdep), Accompanied By David Gushleff, Health And Safety Director, Fecc, Inc., Inspected Fecc For Compliance With State And Federal Hazardous Waste And Used Oil Regulations. This Was A Routine Compliance Inspection. Fecc Is A Registered Hazardous Waste And Used Oil Transporter; However, The Facility Has Never Transported Used Oil.
The Company Moved From Their Silver Star Address To This Location In July 2008. The Company Currently Employs Approximately 30 People.
The Facility Was Previously Inspected At This Address By The Departments' Hazardous Waste Program In 2008 And Found To Be In Compliance. | At The Time Of The Inspections The Facility Was Operating As A Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (Cesqg) And Transporter Of Hazardous Waste And Used Oil. By Definition In 40 Cfr 261.5, This Means The Facility Is Generating Less Than 220 Pounds A Month Of Hazardous Waste. The Facility Was Not In Compliance At The Time Of The Inspection.
| The Facility Is A Soil And Groundwater Remediation And Spill Response Company. Wastes Generated From These Processes Cause The Facility To Be A Hazardous Waste Transporter. Hazardous Waste Is Taken Directly From The Job Site To A Treatment, Storage And Disposal Facility Or A 10-Day Transfer Facility And Never Stored At This Location. Vacuum Trucks Parked On Site Are Emptied At A Facility In Lakeland.
Inspection
The Facility Is Comprised Of An Office Area Connected To A Garage For General Maintenance On Their Vehicles, A Warehouse For Storage, And Wash Pad. The Facility Also Has A Large Parking Lot That Is Used To Store Empty Drums And Tanks That Might Be Needed On Job Sites. At The Time Of The Inspection The Garage Had Five 55-Gallon Drums Labeled "Used Oil" And One 55-Gallon Drum Labeled "Used Oil Filters" In Secondary Containment.
At The Time Of The Inspection An Employee Had Just Begun To Paint An Excavator In The Warehouse. According To The Employee, He Was Cleaning The Paint Gun With Paint Thinner (Figure 3) And Discharging The Liquid Into Absorbents. The Absorbents Were Then Thrown Into The Trash. According To Material Safety Data Sheets, The Paint Thinner Has A Flash Point Of Less Than 140 Degrees Fahrenheit; Therefore, Is A Characteristic Hazardous Waste For Ignitability [40 Cfr 262.11].
Note: On January 21, 2011, The Department Received An Email From Mr. Gushleff, Who Stated Paint Waste Hadn'T Been Generated Yet But Will Be Collected When Generated.
Near The Painting Area Was One Unlabeled 55-Gallon Drum, An Unlabeled Catch Pan Of Used Oil [40 Cfr 279.22(C)] And An Unlabeled Bucket Of Used Oil Filters [62-710.850 F.A.C.] (Figures 1 And 2). The Drum Was Labeled And The Used Oil Filters Were Transferred To The Labeled Drum In The Garage, While The Inspector Was On Site.
Located Outside The Warehouse Is A Wash Pad Connected To A Wastewater Treatment Plant But Appears To Discharge Into A Dry Retention Pond (Figures 4 And 5). According To Mr. Gushleff, Fecc Did Not Renew Their Industrial Wastewater Permit Because They Were No Longer Using The Wash Pad; However, It Appeared That Someone Had Used The Wash Pad Recently. The Wash Pad Was Wet And A Power Sprayer And Cleaners Were Located On It. The Department'S Industrial Wastewater Permitting Program Was Notified Of This Information.
Record Review
Review Of Manifests Indicate Three Employees Have Transported Hazardous Waste: Ernest Whidden, Who Completed Dot Hazardous Materials Training Most Recently In December 2008; Jaun Marin, Who Completed Dot Hazardous Materials Training In June 2009; And Larry Wallace. Mr. Gushleff Was Unable To Provide Documentation For Mr. Wallace.
Note: On January 21, 2011, The Department Received An Email From Mr. Gushleff Stating That Mr. Wallace Was A Temporary Employee From The Staffing Company, Moment'S Notice. Mr. Wallace Had Provided His Hazardous Material |
