Routine; Hazardous Waste Transporter - Routine; Used Oil Transfer Facility Clark Environmental, Inc. Was Inspected For Compliance With Hazardous Waste And Used Oil Transporter Requirements During A Routine Solid Waste Program Inspection At The Facility. Details Regarding The Solid Waste Processing And Soil Thermal Treatment Operations Are Discussed In The Solid Waste Program'S Inspection Report, Which Is Being Prepared Under Separate Cover. Although Clark Was A Registered Transporter, Until Recently The Epa Identification Number Assigned To Clark'S Fort Pierce Office Was Used On All Used Oil And Hazardous Waste Shipping Papers. Clark Closed The Company'S Branch Office In Fort Pierce In 2012, And All Waste Transportation Activities Are Now Conducted Under The Mulberry Facility'S Identification Number. Jim Clark, Beth Clark And Other Staff Provided Assistance And Information During This Inspection. | Clark Environmental Accepts Petroleum And Creosote Contaminated Soil For Thermal Treatment. Soil Is Stockpiled Inside A Containment Building Until Treated, And After Treatment Until Test Results Are Received. Soil That Meets Criteria For Re-Use Is Moved Into Outdoor Stockpiles Until It Is Loaded For Delivery. Soil That Does Not Meet Standards Is Either Re-Treated, Or Shipped For Disposal To A Landfill. No Hazardous Waste Soils Are Accepted.
Other Non Hazardous Solid Wastes Are Treated Within A Containment Building By Draining Free Liquids, And By Solidification Prior To Shipment To Permitted Landfills, Such As Cedar Trails. Drained Liquids Have Been Analyzed, And Are Disposed Of As Non Hazardous Waste Industrial Waste Water, Usually To Diversified Environmental Services In Tampa. Clark'S Permit Authorizes Use Of Fly Ash For Solidification. The Company Recently Accepted Ezbase, A Treated Fly Ash Generated By Jea From Kinder Morgan For This Purpose. The Storage Building Used For The Material Was Open Between The Side Walls And Roof. Some Particulate Emissions Were Noted From The Top Of The Pile. It Was Recommended That The Pile Heights Be Lowered To Control Emissions. Water Sprays Would Cause The Product To React And Solidify Prematurely.
At The Time Of This Inspection, No Hazardous Waste Or Used Oil Was Being Stored On Site. In General, If Clark Elects To Transport Waste Instead Of Brokering The Material, It Is Transported Directly To The Disposal Facility. This Facility Would Not Meet Siting Criteria For A 10 Day Hazardous Waste Transfer Facility. Records Were Reviewed, And No Violations Were Noted. | Based On The Results Of This Inspection, Clark Environmental Was In Compliance With Used Oil And Hazardous Waste Transporter Regulations. | Revised | In Compliance Reprot | Revised |

Routine; Non-Handler - Routine; Hazardous Waste Transporter - Routine; Universal Waste Transporter Clark Environmental, Inc., (Clark) Was Inspected To Determine Its Compliance With State And Federal Hazardous And Universal Waste Transporter Requirements. The Facility Most Recently Notified The Department Of Environmental Protection (Department) Of Its Waste Activities In May Of 2016 As Part Of The Annual Transporter Renewal Process. The Facility Has Two Solid Waste Permits; One To Operate A Materials Processing Facility (38627-008-So/30) And Another To Operate A Soil Thermal Treatment Facility (138634-006-So/27). The Facility Also Has An Air Permit To Operate A Soil Thermal Treatment Facility (1050319-014-Ao). Compliance With Those Permits And Associated Rules Were Not Included As Part Of This Inspection. The Inspectors Were Accompanied Throughout The Inspection By Mr. Mark Alessandroni, The General Manager. The Facility Was Last Inspected By The Department'S Hazardous Waste Section On 01-14-13. The Most Recent Inspection By The Department'S Solid Waste Section Was On 07-22-15. | Clark Operates A Materials Processing Facility, For The Processing, Consolidation And Bulking Of Nonhazardous Solid Waste Materials, As Well As A Soil Thermal Treatment Facility For The Processing And Thermal Treatment Of Nonhazardous Solid Waste Soil And Soil-Like Materials. Mr. Alessandroni Indicated That Sawdust Is The Primary Solidification Agent, Although Cement Kiln Dust Is Also Used. In Addition, Clark Transports Hazardous Waste And Universal Mercury Wastes From Generators' Sites Usually Directly To The Designated Facilities Or Second Transporter. Clark Does Not Transport Used Oil. Clark Also Transports Petroleum Contact Water (Pcw) And Currently Takes It Directly To Aqua Clean In Lakeland, Fl. Hazardous And Universal Wastes Are Generally Not Brought Back To The Facility.
Clark Transports Hazardous Waste For Customers That Already Utilize Its Other Services. The Majority Of Hazardous Waste Transported Is Generated By Fueling Facilities From Cleanouts Of Spill Control Equipment, Such As Spill Buckets. Hazardous And Universal Wastes Are Transported Only In Enclosed Box Trailers And Only In Containers. No Bulk Wastes Are Transported. As Indicated, Most Waste Is Taken From The Generator Directly To The Designated Facility, But Occasionally A Driver Will Stop By The Facility To Pick Up Paperwork, Etc. According To Mr. Alessandroni, At No Time Is Waste Ever Parked At The Facility For More Than A Couple Of Hours Before Continuing To Its Intended Destination. Routes Are Generally Scheduled So That The Last Stop Of The Day Is Freehold Cartage In Bartow, Which Is A Certified Hazardous Waste Transporter And A Hazardous Waste Transfer Facility.
Clark Employs One Primary Driver And One Back Up Driver. There Is One Tractor/Cab And Two Trailers. Approximately 90% Of Wastes Transported Are Nonhazardous And Usually Investigative-Derived. The Cab And One Trailer Were Out At The Time Of The Inspection, But The Second Trailer Was Inspected And Found To Be Empty. During The Walk Through The Yard, Three Unlabeled 55-Gallon Drums Were Observed Staged By The Office Building. Mr. Alessandroni Said The Drums Contained Papers Past Their Retention Date That Had Been Removed From Storage. The Inspectors Requested That The Drums Be Opened, And It Was Confirmed That They Contained Old Papers Awaiting Shredding. It Was Recommended That All Drums/Containers At The Facility Be Labeled As To Their Contents.
Jim Clark Maintains The Disposal Documents For Pcw, And Because He Was Out Of The Office At The Time Of The Inspection, They Were Not Reviewed. Hazardous Waste Manifests Were Reviewed. Clark Is Moving To An Electronic Recordkeeping System, But Paper Manifest Copies Were Still Available. During The Review, The Inspector Noted That For One Of Clark'S Customers, The Date The Generator Signed The Manifest Was Often A Month Or More Earlier That The Date Clark'S Driver Signed It. Mr. Alessandroni Explained That This Was Because The Origi |
