The Facility Is Serviced By City Water And Septic Tank, And Employs Approximately 60 To 65 People.
The Facility Is Authorized To Process Used Oil, Oily Wastewater, And Used Oil Filters Under Permit Number 192423-Ho-004, Which Was Modified On May 6, 2008 And Was Scheduled To Expire April 22, 2012. However; The Facility Submitted A Renewal Application On February 20, 2012 And Is Currently Responding To A Notice Of Deficiencies Issued By The Department After Review Of That Application. Cbi Is Also Requesting Modifications To The Permit At This Time Including The Addition Of Five New 12,000 Gallon Steel Tanks To The Existing Tank Farm For Storage Of Used Oil/Water. They Are Also Requesting Permission To Begin Bulking Solid Waste In One Of The Bays Of The New Maintenance/Truck Wash Building.
The Last Inspection Of This Facility Was On February 22, 2011. There Were No Issues At The Physical Plant Itself; However, Due To The Absence Of Certain Employees On The Day Of The Inspection, Cbi Was Unable To Produce The Acceptance And Delivery Records For The Facility. General Facility Inspection Logs Were Unavailable For Review And There Were Also Several Issues With The Contingency Plan And Training Records For One Of Their Drivers. The Facility Resolved All Violations And Return To Compliance Without Enforcement On May 24, 2011.

The New Maintenance/Truck Washing Building Has Eight Bays. Three Are Setup For Minor Service Of The Facility'S Vehicles; Most Of The Major Repair Work Is Handled By Kenworth. There Is An Aqueous Parts Washer In This Area, As Well As, A Used Oil Tank. The Inspector Noted That The Eye Wash In This Area Was Not Functioning. The Mechanic Explained That A Valve That Would Allow Water To Flow To Eye Wash Had Been Shut Off Because Of A Leaking Seal; However, He Would Be Sure To Address The Issue Promptly. The Inspector Checked All Aerosols Used In The Shop And Didn'T Find Any That Contained Chlorinated Solvents. Oily Rags Are Purchased From An Outside Vendor, Dried In A Flammable Can And Then Sent To The Landfill. As Soon As The Solid Waste Consolidation Begins, These Rags Will Be Place In The Rolloff Along With The Solids From The Truck Wash And Oily Solid Wastes That Cbi Will Be Taking From Its' Customers.
The Operations Taking Place In The Other Five Bays Of The Maintenance/Truck Wash Building Are As Follows. Three Of The Bays Are Only Being Used For Storage Of Supplies And Equipment. The Final Two Bays Are Where The Truck Wash Is Located And Where The Solid Waste Consolidation Will Be Taking Place. There Is Also An Oily Water Collection Tank In This Area, Which Is Receiving Any Liquids From The Sloped Containment Area For The Truck Wash. Once This Tank Is Full, The Oily Water Will Be Pumped Into A Tanker And Send To Miami For Treatment. The Solids That Accumulate In The Truck Wash Area Will Be Placed In The Solid Waste Consolidation Rolloff And Taken To A Landfill, When The Rolloff Is Full.
The Facility'S Representatives And The Inspectors Then Proceeded To The Tank Farm Area And It Was Noted That The Pads That Would Hold The Five Additional Tanks Were Already Present In The Secondary Containment Surrounding The Tank Farm. The Secondary Containment For The Tank Farm Didn'T Have Any Areas Where Cracks In The Concrete Or Damage To The Epoxy Were Evident And It Was Free Of Precipitation.

There The Drums Were Stored Until They Were Loaded Onto A Truck The Following Wednesday For Delivery To Eq The Next Day. After Their Discussion With Cbi, The Department Examined The Manifest Again And Realized That Cbi Didn'T Indicate A Second Transporter On The Manifest That Was Received By Eq.
Cbi Expressed That There Was Still An Ongoing Investigation Related To This Matter. They Were Attempting To Determine If Any Safety Procedures Were Violated Or If They Needed To Adjust Their Internal Procedures For Handling Similar Situations In The Future. The Department Has Not Received Any Additional Communications From Cbi Concerning The Matter.
Refer To The October 11, 2012 Inspection (File Review) Reports For Np And Nmc For Information On This Matter.
