Site Inspection |
Routine; Used Oil Transfer Facility An Announced Inspection Was Conducted At January Environmental Services To Determine The Facility'S Compliance With Used Oil Transporter And Transfer Facility Regulations. The Company Has One Driver That Works Out Of This Location, Although At Times Other Drivers Pick Up Or Deliver Materials To The Facility. There Are No Full Time Office Employees. Loren January And Cruz Torres Represented The Company During The Inspection. | January Is A Used Oil, Used Oil Filter And Oily Waste Water Transporter. The Facility Picks Up Waste From Its Customers, Consolidates It And Arranges For Final Treatment And Disposal. Facility Operations Have Changed Since The Previous Inspections. The Facility Is Now Managing Drums Of Used Antifreeze And Some Other Drummed Waste In Addition To The Old Grease That Was Managed Previously. These Were Being Stored Within A Bay Inside The Facility. At The Time Of The Inspection, A Drum Labeled "Parts Washer Sludge" And A Drum Of Used Antifreeze Were In Storage. These Had Been Accepted From Wal Mart Distribution Center #7038 In Ft. Pierce On November 29, 2010. The Shipping Paper Includes A Generator Certification Statement Section Regarding The Nature Of The Waste. However The Shipping Paper Was Not Signed By The Customer In That Area. The Facility Is A Small Quantity Generator, Not A Cesqg, According To The Notification Forms Filed By Wal-Mart In 2006 And Again In December 2010. In Addition, Two 20 Gallon Containers Holding Parts Washing Solvent Were On Site That Were Generated By Great Wide, The Vehicle Maintenance Contractor Operating At Wal Mart Distribution Center #7023 In Desoto County. This Distribution Center Has Also Notified As A Small Quantity Generator. This Material Had Been Accepted For Transportation On November 1, 2010. The Certification Statement Had Been Signed On The Shipping Paper For This Waste. The Generator'S Epa Identification Number Was Not Included On Either Of These Shipping Papers. January Environmental Does Not Have A Solid Waste Permit Or A Used Oil Permit Authorizing Acceptance Of Drummed Wastes. In Addition, The Department Is Concerned That These Wastes Have Been Accepted Without Adequate Waste Characterizations.
The Bay Also Held A Drum Collecting Used Oil Samples That Was Located Next To A Roll Up Door. Either Secondary Containment Must Be Provided, Or The Drum Must Be Moved To A Location That Will Contain Releases. The Bay Also Held Empty Drums, Several Full Drums Of Waste Grease, Along With Containers Of Used Absorbent. Ms. January Was Requested To Provide Additional Information On The Management Of Drummed Wastes By The Facility.
Used Antifreeze Is Also Managed In One Of The Facility'S 20,000 Gallon Storage Tanks. Cruz Torres Said That The Antifreeze Was Being Disposed Of To January'S Nashville Tn Facility. The Only Shipping Records For Waste From Bartow To Nashville Were For Tanker Loads Identified As ~3,500 Gallons Of Used Oil. Florida Does Not Include Waste Antifreeze Within Its Definition Of Used Oil, And Spent Antifreeze Is Not Exempt From Regulation As Hazardous Waste If Burned. In A Letter Dated January 13, 2011, Ms. January Said That Nashville Was Reclaiming The Antifreeze, Which Is An Exempt Activity In Florida. However January'S Web Site States That The Nashville Facility Recovers Organics Which Are Then Fuel Blended. Further Clarification Is Being Sought On This Issue.
Three Tanks Were Being Used To Hold Used Oil At The Time Of The Inspection. One Of The Tanks, With ~17,500 Gallons Of Oil Was Being Loaded Into A Rail Car. The Rail Car Was Provided With Track Pans That Drained To A Concrete Sump With A Sump Pump For Secondary Containment. January Began Shipping By Rail On March 11, 2009. Ms. January Said That They Began Loading A Rail Car Beginning When Oil Had Been Stored In The Tank Farm For 30 Days. However, The Rail Car Would Stay On Site For Up To 60 Days After That Time While January Finished Loading It. Full Rail C |

Routine; CESQG (<100 kg/month) - Routine; VSQG (<100 kg/month) - Routine; Used Oil-Other An Announced Inspection Was Conducted At January Environmental Services On February 20, 2015 To Determine The Facility'S Compliance With Used Oil Transporter And Transfer Facility Rules And To Investigate A Complaint. Lynn Harris Represented The Company During The Inspection. A Follow-Up Visit Was Conducted On February 25, 2015. Loren January Was Available At This Time For The Paperwork Review And To Answer Additional Questions. | The Complaint Alleged That The Facility Had Covered An Oil Spill Rather Than Cleaning It Up. The Inspection Determined That There Had Been A Small Spill Caused By An Equipment Malfunction. The Contaminated Dirt Had Been Excavated For Proper Disposal, And The Hole Had Been Filled With Clean Sand. There Was No Evidence Of Contamination At The Facility.
January Currently Has Two Drivers. A Third Driver And A Process Operator Had Been Fired The Previous Week. At The Time Of This Inspection, All The Company Vehicles Operating Out Of This Location Appeared To Be On Site. The Vac Trucks Holding Used Oil Were Not Parked Within Secondary Containment. One Of These Had Been Parked On Site For More Than 24 Hours Due To Staff Changes, But Was Scheduled To Be Emptied That Day. A Compartmented Tank Trailer Was Parked On The East Side Of The Facility. Mr. Harris Said That The Trailer Was Used To Transport Oily Waste Water, And Was Currently Empty.
In Addition, An Empty Baker Tank And Empty Roll Off Container Were Parked On Site. The Loading Rack Had A Parked Tanker, A Portable Un Tank And Two Rail Cars. The Facility Currently Has A Track Pan Only Under The Rail Car Loading Area. Full Rail Cars Are Not Provided With Containment. Rail Cars May Take More Than 24 Hours To Load Or Unload.
At This Time, January Is Mainly Processing Oily Water And Bilge Waste. Mr. Harris Initially Said That Oil Was Being Brought In By Rail, But Then Later Also Said That The Rail Cars Were Used To Ship Water Separated From The Oil. The Un Tank Is Used To Bring In Waste From Ships At The Port. At This Time January Has Not Shipped Via Rail In The Last Few Years. There Is Currently Waste Water Being Stored In The Rail Cars Which Was Analyzed In January 2015.
Mr. Harris Said That The Oil Recovered From Processing Was Tested For Water Content, Solids Content And Ash Content. No Chemical Testing Is Done On The Oil For Sulfur, Btu Content Or Any Of The Used Oil Specifications. In Addition, Mr. Harris Said That The Incoming Material Was Not Being Tested To His Knowledge. No Dexil Test Kits Were On Site. He Identified The Incoming Material As Number 6 Oil.
Oily Waste That Is Received Is Pumped Into One Of Six Holding Tanks. A New Green Tank Has Been Installed In A Separate Containment Area Attached To The Existing Containment. At The Time Of The Inspection This Tank Was Empty, And A Second Green Tank Was In The Yard, On Its Side. The Facility Is Reminded That If They Plan To Use This Tank To Store Regulated Materials They Must Comply With All Regulatory Requirements. Regulated Tanks Are Required To Be Registered 30 Days Prior To Installation, Or Within 30 Day Of Changing From A Waste Water Or Process Tank To A Regulated Used Oil Storage Tank. In Addition, A Permit Modification May Be Needed If Storage Or Procession Capacity Is Increased. At The Time Of The Inspection The Containment Around The Tank Farm Was In Good Repair, Did Not Contain Any Free Liquids, And Appeared To Be Adequate To Contain The Volume Of The Tanks.
From The Holding Tanks, The Oil Is Pumped Into One Of Two Processing Tanks, Where It Is Heated And Chemicals Are Added To Help Gravimetric Separation And De-Emulsification. Acid And Caustic Are Available On Site For Ph Adjustment. After Separation, Oil Is Processed Through A Centrifugal Separator, And Solids Are Dropped Into An Open Roll Off Container Staged Under The Centrifuge. The Roll Off Is Under Cover, And Within A Containment Area. The Roll Off Held Visible Liquids At The Tim |
