SECTION II - OBSERVATIONS
Tenant: Kirby Gate 5 Facility
Section: 2.1
Date: 05/09/24, 9:36 AM Contains AOC: Yes Contains CBI: No
Lead Inspector: Cameron Tanaka
Attendees: Zachary Harrison (Operations Manager), Morgan Johnson (Kirby Environmental Director), and Matthew Thompson (Environmental Supervisor)
Kirby is located on the Houston Ship Channel and consists of four main areas. Kirby operates a fuel dock, a cleaning area, a pressure control area, and a water treatment area. The fuel dock provides fuel and lubricants to vessels and removes bilge water from them. Kirby keeps two storage tanks on site for lubricant and fuel. The pressure control area serves to vent pressure from barges and vessels. Kirby also performs ship to barge lightering of cargo. The cleaning area provides stripping, vapor controlling, washing, and degassing services for vessels and barges.
The facility only services Kirby Inland Marine owned barges. During servicing, Kirby strips the heels out of bulk tanks in barges. This process involves hooking the barges up to a stripping connection that uses a diaphragm pump to remove the heel material from the barge. The heels that Kirby removes from the barges are managed as products and sold. Before stripping the heels, Kirby has already identified the composition of the heels. After the heels are stripped from the bulk tanks, the barges are flared. Kirby employees will then clean out the rust and scale remaining in the barges. These materials are generally hazardous wastes based on what the barges were originally holding. For example, a barge carrying benzene would generate rust and scale that was characteristically hazardous benzene waste. Rust and scale are collected in buckets on the barges then transferred to roll-off containers for disposal. The roll-off containers are characterized before they are shipped off site. Kirby treats every rust and scale waste as hazardous until it has been analyzed. The inspection team requested a document describing the types of materials, or cargoes, Kirby can accept. In his May 17 follow-up email (see Appendix 2), Mr. Thompson included the facility's New Source Review (NSR) permit that lists all the cargoes that Kirby accepts (see Appendix 3). The inspection team also requested clarification and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for Kirby's waste determinations and management which was provided in Mr. Thompson's May 17 follow-up email (see Appendix 2). Mr. Thompson also sent the facility's Waste Management Plan and the Hazardous Communication Program, which also briefly mention waste handling (see Appendix 4 and Appendix 5, respectively). The ERG inspection team did not note any issues with these documents.
Kirby is a LQG of hazardous waste with EPA ID TXR000080139. The facility generates waste such as rust coming off barges during cleaning processes, wash water from chemical washes, oily rags, used oil from bilges, bilge water, and used batteries. Kirby does not receive or transfer any waste from any barges or vessels. The chemicals used for vessel washing are mostly aromatics, surfactants, and detergents. The facility's wash waters go to its wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), which operates under a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) permit. Before discharging water from its WWTP, Kirby samples it, using AB Labs to perform biochemical (or biological) oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) tests. Kirby personnel indicated that they discharge about 10% of their discharge capacity. The facility does not have a MARPOL COA.
During the inspection, the inspection team observed the fuel dock, fuel dock temporary central accumulation area (CAA) (see Appendix 1 - Photos 1-4), cleaning area, pressure control area, and water treatment area. The temporary CAA was the only area where the inspection team observed areas of concern (AOCs) during the inspection. Observations and AOCs are organized by section below along with facility responses where

relevant.
Fuel Dock Temporary CAA
During the inspection, the inspection team observed that Kirby's temporary CAA had insufficient aisle space (see Appendix 1 - Photo 1) [AOC #1 - Kirby did not maintain sufficient aisle space in its CAA - 40 CFR 262.255]. The facility representatives stated that the drums are in this temporary CAA while work is done in the permanent CAA. The drums were filled and, according to the facility representatives, had been in the temporary CAA for a month at most. The facility representatives indicated that they were staging these drums for a transfer to a roll-off container. In his May 17 follow-up email, Mr. Thompson stated that during the inspection, the waste drums had been temporarily shifted outside the truck rack due to maintenance, which involved hot work, being conducted immediately adjacent to the storage area. Upon completion of the maintenance, the drums were placed back into the designated storage area with adequate aisle spacing (see Appendix 2). Mr. Thompson included photos of the maintenance being conducted on the day of the inspection and the drums placed back in the designated storage area upon completion of the maintenance (see Appendix 6 - Photos 1-4). The inspection team also observed that two drums were in poor condition, being either dented or rusted (see Appendix 1 - Photo 2-4) [AOC #2 - Kirby did not keep containers holding hazardous waste in good condition or immediately transfer the hazardous waste to a container in good condition - 40 CFR 262.17(a)(1)(ii)]. In his May 17 follow-up email, Mr. Thompson included an attachment that he stated would be reviewed during Kirby's next safety meeting and on an annual basis moving forward (see Appendix 7).
The inspection team did not observe other AOCs at the time of the inspection. A closing conference was conducted at approximately 11:50 AM with Kirby personnel. The AOCs and requested documents were communicated during the closing. The inspection team requested the facility's weekly inspection checklist for its waste storage areas, which is included as Appendix 8.

Special Conditions Permit Number 82407
Emission Standards
1. This permit authorizes emissions only from those points listed in the attached table entitled "Emission Sources - Maximum Allowable Emission Rates" and the facilities covered by this permit are authorized to emit subject to the emission rate limits on that table and other operating conditions specified in the special conditions.
2. Non-fugitive emissions from relief valves, safety valves, or rupture discs of gases containing volatile organic compounds (VOC) at a concentration of greater than 1 percent are not authorized by this permit unless authorized on the maximum allowable emission rates table (MAERT). Any releases directly to the atmosphere from relief valves, safety valves, or rupture discs of gases containing VOC at a concentration greater than 1 weight per cent are not consistent with good practice for minimizing emissions.
Federal Program Applicability
3. These facilities shall comply with all applicable requirements of EPA regulations on National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPS) promulgated in 40 CFR Part 61, as applicable, for:
A. Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources) of Benzene, Subparts A and J; B. Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources), Subparts A and V; C. Benzene Storage Vessels, Subparts A and Y.

A. Fuel used in the boiler and heater shall be limited to pipeline-quality, sweet natural gas containing no more than 0.25 grain hydrogen sulfide and 5 grains total sulfur per 100 dry standard cubic feet. Use of any other fuel for normal or standby operation requires approval from The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Executive Director unless it can be authorized by a Permit by Rule (PBR).
B. Visible emissions shall not exceed 5 percent opacity averaged over a six-minute period as determined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Reference Method 9.
5. Emissions from the Tanks T-101, T-1001, T-2001, T-2002, T-2003, T-3001, T-4001, T-5001, T-5002, T-5003 and the Wash Water Treatment System shall be vented through a carbon adsorption system (EPN CARBON-1) consisting of at least two activated carbon canisters that are connected in series or an equivalent control device. (12/14)
A. The carbon adsorption system (CAS) shall be sampled when loading the waste water tanks to determine breakthrough of volatile organic compounds (VOC). Sampling shall be done daily if tank loading/filling occurs.
B. The VOC sampling and analysis shall be performed using an instrument with a flame ionization detector (FID), or a photoionization detector (PID), or other TCEQ approved alternative detector. The instrument must meet all requirements specified in Section 8.1 of EPA Method 21 (40 CFR 60, Appendix A). Sampling and analysis for VOC breakthrough shall be performed as follows: (1) Immediately prior to performing sampling, the instrument shall be calibrated with zero and span calibration gas mixtures. Zero gas shall be certified to contain less than 0.1 ppmv total hydrocarbons. (7/15) (a) For an FID, span calibration gas shall be methane at a concentration within 10 percent of 100 ppmv, and certified by the manufacturer to be 2 percent accurate. (b) For a PID, span calibration gas shall be isobutylene at a concentration specified by the detector's manufacturer, consistent with a leak definition of 100 ppmv. The span calibration gas shall be certified to be 2 percent accurate. The permit holder shall retain written manufacturer's specifications for calibration of the PID.
Appendix 3 Page 3 of 29
A shelf life must be specified for span calibration gas cylinder standards. Cylinder standards must be either reanalyzed or replaced at the end of the specified shelf life. Calibration error for the zero and span calibration gas checks must be less than 5 percent of the span calibration gas value before sampling may be conducted.
(2) The sampling point shall be at the outlet of the initial canister but before the inlet to the second or final polishing canister. Sample ports or connections must be designed such that air leakage into the sample port does not occur during sampling.
(3) During sampling, data recording shall not begin until after two times the instrument response time. The VOC concentration shall be monitored for at least 5 minutes, recording 1-minute averages, during tank loading/filling.
C. Breakthrough shall be defined as the highest 1 minute average measured VOC concentration at or exceeding 100 ppmv. When the condition of breakthrough of VOC from the initial saturation canister occurs, the waste gas flow shall be switched to the second canister and a fresh canister shall be placed as the new final polishing canister within one hour. Sufficient new activated carbon canisters shall be maintained at the site to replace spent carbon canisters such that replacements can be done in the above specified time frame.
D. Records of the CAS monitoring maintained at the plant site, shall include (but are not limited to) the following:
(1) Sample time and date.
(2) Monitoring results (ppmv).
(3) Corrective action taken including the time and date of that action.
(4) Process operations occurring at the time of sampling.
E. Alternate monitoring or sampling requirements that are equivalent or better may be approved by the TCEQ Regional Manager. Alternate requirements must be approved in writing before they can be used for compliance purposes.
6. Emissions from point sources containing VOCs with vapor pressures equal or greater than 0.50 psia shall be routed to the Cleaning Plant Flare (EPN CPFLARE) as represented in the application, PI-1 dated July 16, 2007 and subsequent submittals.
7. The Cleaning Plant Flare (EPN CPFLARE) shall be designed and operated in accordance with the following requirements:
A. The flare shall be designed such that the combined assist natural gas and waste stream to the flare meets the Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR) 60.18 specifications of minimum heating value and maximum tip velocity under normal, and maintenance flow conditions.
The heating value and velocity requirements shall be satisfied during operations authorized by this permit. Flare testing per 40 CFR 60.18(f) may be requested by the appropriate Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Regional Office to demonstrate compliance with these requirements.
B. The flare shall be operated with a flame present at all times when controlling VOC vapors. The pilot flame shall be continuously monitored by a thermocouple or an infrared monitor. The time, date, and duration of any loss of pilot flame shall be recorded when controlling VOC vapors. Each monitoring device shall be accurate to, and shall be calibrated at a frequency in accordance with, the manufacturer's specifications.
C. The flare shall be operated with no visible emissions except periods not to exceed a total of five minutes during any two consecutive hours. This shall be assured by the use of steam or air to assist to the flare.
D. Six months from the issuance of this permit, the permit holder shall install a continuous flow monitor and a total hydrocarbon analyzer that provide a record of vent stream flow to the flare and concentration of VOC to the flare.
Installation, validation and calibration of the VOC analyzer shall follow the procedures and requirements of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 8A. Initial monitor validation shall be performed consistent with Section 5 - Performance Specification Test Periods and Section 6 - Performance Specification Test Procedures. A three-point calibration (Section 4.7) error test shall be performed once every calendar quarter to verify accuracy. Calibration drift checks shall initially be performed daily until such time that a successful 7-day drift expectation is documented. Following six successful weekly periods of low drift, the drift check may be relaxed to once per week. If at any time the drift check cannot meet the requirement of less than 3 ppmv propane drift (or less than 3% of span value of 100 ppmv), the drift check frequency shall revert back to daily until an additional 6-week successful drift can be documented.
Appendix 3 Page 4 of 29
Calibration gases used for the daily check shall be in accordance with Section 4.1 of PS-8A. Net heating value of the gas combusted in the flare shall be estimated assuming the propane results and the equation given in 40 CFR 60.18(f)(3). Net heating value of the gas combusted in the flare shall be calculated according to the equation given in 40 CFR 60.18(f)(3) as amended through October 17, 2000, (65 FR 61744).
The monitors and analyzers shall operate as required by this section at least 95 percent of the time when the flare is operational, averaged over a rolling 12-month period. Flared gas net heating value and actual exit velocity determined in accordance with 40 CFR 60.18(f)(4) shall be recorded at least once every 15 minutes. Hourly mass emission rates shall be determined and recorded using the above readings and the emission factors used in the permit application, PI-1 dated July 16, 2007 and subsequent submittals.
8. The following requirements apply to waste gas capture systems for the Cleaning Plant Flare:
A. The control device shall not have a bypass.
B. Capture system inspection requirements. (1) Conduct a once a month visual, audible, and/or olfactory inspection of the capture system to verify there are no leaking components in the capture system; or
(2) Once a year, verify the capture system is leak-free by inspecting in accordance with 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A, Test Method 21. Leaks shall be indicated by an instrument reading greater than or equal to 500 ppmv above background.
C. If any of the above inspections are not satisfactory, the permit holder shall promptly take necessary corrective action.
Records of the inspection, monitoring, and corrective action shall be maintained and kept at the site.

Leak Detection and Repair Monitoring Program
20. Piping, Valves, Connectors, Pumps, Agitators, and Compressors in contact with Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) -- 28RCT
Except as may be provided for in the special conditions of this permit, the following requirements apply to the abovereferenced equipment:
A. These conditions shall not apply (1) where the VOC has an aggregate partial pressure or vapor pressure equal to or less than 0.044 pounds per square inch, absolute (psia) at 68 F or (2) operating pressure is at least 5 kilopascals (0.725 psia) below ambient pressure. Equipment excluded from this condition shall be identified in a list or by one of the methods described below to be made available upon request.
The exempted components may be identified by one or more of the following methods:
(1) piping and instrumentation diagram (PID); or
(2) a written or electronic database.
B. Construction of new and reworked piping, valves, pump systems, and compressor systems shall conform to applicable American National Standards Institute (ANSI), American Petroleum Institute (API), American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), or equivalent codes.
C. New and reworked underground process pipelines shall contain no buried valves such that fugitive emission monitoring is rendered impractical. New and reworked buried connectors shall be welded.
D. To the extent that good engineering practice will permit, new and reworked valves and piping connections shall be so located to be reasonably accessible for leak-checking during plant operation. Non-accessible valves, as defined by Title 30 TAC Chapter 115 (30 TAC Chapter 115), shall be identified in a list to be made available upon request. The non-accessible valves may be identified by one or more of the methods described in Subparagraph A above.
E. New and reworked piping connections shall be welded or flanged. Screwed connections are permissible only on piping smaller than two-inch diameter. Gas or hydraulic testing of the new and reworked piping connections at no less than operating pressure shall be performed prior to returning the components to service or they shall be monitored for leaks using an approved gas analyzer within 8 hours of the components being returned to service. Adjustments shall be made as necessary to obtain leak-free performance. Connectors shall be inspected by visual, audible, and/or olfactory means at least weekly by operating personnel walk-through.
Each open-ended valve or line shall be equipped with an appropriately sized cap, blind flange, plug, or a second valve to seal the line. Except during sampling, both valves shall be closed. If the removal of a component for repair or replacement results in an open ended line or valve, it is exempt from the requirement to install a cap, blind flange, plug, or second valve for 72 hours. If the repair or replacement is not completed within 72 hours, the permit holder must complete either of the following actions within that time period: the line or valve must have a cap, blind flange, plug, or second valve installed; or the permit holder shall verify that there is no leakage from the open-ended line or valve. The open-ended line or valve shall be monitored on a weekly basis in accordance with the applicable NSR permit condition for fugitive emission monitoring except that a leak is defined as any VOC reading greater than background. Leaks must be repaired within 24 hours or a cap, blind flange, plug, or second valve must be installed on the line or valve. The results of this weekly check and any corrective actions taken shall be recorded.
F. Accessible valves shall be monitored by leak-checking for fugitive emissions at least quarterly using an approved gas analyzer. Sealless/leakless valves (including, but not limited to, welded bonnet bellows and diaphragm valves) and relief valves equipped with a rupture disc upstream or venting to a control device are not required to be monitored. For valves equipped with rupture discs, a pressure-sensing device shall be installed between the relief valve and rupture disc to monitor disc integrity. All leaking discs shall be replaced at the earliest opportunity but no later than the next process shutdown. A check of the reading of the pressure-sensing device to verify disc integrity shall be performed weekly and recorded in the unit log.
An approved gas analyzer shall conform to requirements listed in Method 21 of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A. In addition, the response factor of the specific VOC of interest shall be determined and meet the requirements of Section 8 of Method 21. If a mixture of VOCs are being monitored, the response factor shall be calculated for the average composition of the process fluid. The gas analyzer shall be calibrated with methane or another calibration gas as long as the response factor for the VOCs being measured is less than 10.
Replacements for leaking components shall be re-monitored within 15 days of being placed back into VOC service.
G. Except as may be provided for in the special conditions of this permit, all pump, compressor and agitator seals shall be monitored with an approved gas analyzer at least quarterly or be equipped with a shaft sealing system that
Appendix 3 Page 10 of 29
prevents or detects emissions of VOC from the seal. Seal systems designed and operated to prevent emissions or seals equipped with an automatic seal failure detection and alarm system need not be monitored. These seal systems may include (but are not limited to) dual pump seals with barrier fluid at higher pressure than process pressure, seals degassing to vent control systems kept in good working order, or seals equipped with an automatic seal failure detection and alarm system. Submerged pumps or sealless pumps (including, but not limited to, diaphragm, canned, or magnetic-driven pumps) may be used to satisfy the requirements of this condition and need not be monitored.
H. Damaged or leaking valves or connectors found to be emitting VOC in excess of 500 parts per million by volume (ppmv) or found by visual inspection to be leaking (e.g., dripping process fluids) shall be tagged and replaced or repaired. Damaged or leaking pump, compressor, and agitator seals found to be emitting VOC in excess of 10,000 ppmv or found by visual inspection to be leaking (e.g., dripping process fluids) shall be tagged and replaced or repaired. A first attempt to repair the leak must be made within 5 days. Records of the first attempt to repair shall be maintained.
I. Every reasonable effort shall be made to repair a leaking component, as specified in this paragraph, within 15 days after the leak is found. If the repair of a component would require a unit shutdown, that would create more emissions than the repair would eliminate, the repair may be delayed until the next scheduled shutdown. All leaking components which cannot be repaired until a scheduled shutdown shall be identified for such repair by tagging. A listing of all components that qualify for delay of repair shall be maintained on a delay of repair list. The cumulative daily emissions from all components on the delay of repair list shall be estimated by multiplying by 24 the mass emission rate for each component calculated in accordance with the instructions in 30 TAC 115.782(c)(1)(B)(i)(II). The calculations of the cumulative daily emissions from all components on the delay of repair list shall be updated within ten days of when the latest leaking component is added to the delay of repair list. When the cumulative daily emission rate of all components on the delay of repair list times the number of days until the next scheduled unit shutdown is equal to or exceeds the total emissions from a unit shutdown, the TCEQ Regional Manager and any location programs shall be notified and may require early unit shutdown or other appropriate action based on the number and severity of tagged leaks awaiting shutdown. This notification shall be made within 15 days of making this determination.
J. Records of repairs shall include date of repairs, repair results, justification for delay of repairs, and corrective actions taken for all components. Records of instrument monitoring shall indicate dates and times, test methods, and instrument readings. Records of physical inspections shall be noted in the operator's log or equivalent.
K. Fugitive emission monitoring required by 30 TAC Chapter 115 may be used in lieu of Items F through I of this condition.
L. Compliance with the requirements of this condition does not assure compliance with requirements of an applicable New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) or an applicable National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPS) and does not constitute approval of alternative standards for these regulations.
Recordkeeping Requirements
21. The permit holder shall maintain daily operational records during degassing operations including atmosphere venting. Emission calculations for each chemical degassed or vented and total VOCs from all degassing operations including atmospheric venting shall be maintained on a monthly basis and a rolling 12-month period. These records shall be maintained at the plant site for at least two years and be made readily available to TCEQ representatives or any local air pollution control program having jurisdiction upon request. Monthly records shall at least include the following:
A. Size of the barge;
B. Name of chemical in the barge;
C. Control method used (if applicable);
D. Molecular weight of each chemical handled;
E. Vapor pressure of each chemical handled in psia;
F. Concentration of the degassing chemical measured in ppmv as methane prior to the barge being allowed to vent to the atmosphere.
G. The rolling 12-month estimate of emissions of any one hazardous air pollutant (HAP) and the total emissions of all HAPs.

For the Commission
Facilities covered by this permit shall be constructed and operated as specified in the application for the permit. All representations regarding construction plans and operation procedures contained in the permit application shall be conditions upon which the permit is issued. Variations from these representations shall be unlawful unless the permit holder first makes application to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (commission) Executive Director to amend this permit in that regard and such amendment is approved. [Title 30 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) Section 116.116 (30 TAC 116.116)] 1 Voiding of Permit. A permit or permit amendment is automatically void if the holder fails to begin construction within 18 months of the date of issuance, discontinues construction for more than 18 months prior to completion, or fails to complete construction within a reasonable time. Upon request, the executive director may grant an 18month extension. Before the extension is granted the permit may be subject to revision based on best available control technology, lowest achievable emission rate, and netting or offsets as applicable. One additional extension of up to 18 months may be granted if the permit holder demonstrates that emissions from the facility will comply with all rules and regulations of the commission, the intent of the Texas Clean Air Act (TCAA), including protection of the public's health and physical property; and (b)(1)the permit holder is a party to litigation not of the permit holder's initiation regarding the issuance of the permit; or (b)(2) the permit holder has spent, or committed to spend, at least 10 percent of the estimated total cost of the project up to a maximum of $5 million. A permit holder granted an extension under subsection (b)(1) of this section may receive one subsequent extension if the permit holder meets the conditions of subsection (b)(2) of this section. [30 TAC 116.120] Construction Progress. Start of construction, construction interruptions exceeding 45 days, and completion of construction shall be reported to the appropriate regional office of the commission not later than 15 working days after occurrence of the event. [30 TAC 116.115(b)(2)(A)] Start-up Notification. The appropriate air program regional office shall be notified prior to the commencement of operations of the facilities authorized by the permit in such a manner that a representative of the commission may be present. The permit holder shall provide a separate notification for the commencement of operations for each unit of phased construction, which may involve a series of units commencing operations at different times. Prior to operation of the facilities authorized by the permit, the permit holder shall identify the source or sources of allowances to be utilized for compliance with Chapter 101, Subchapter H, Division 3 of this title (relating to Mass Emissions Cap and Trade Program). [30 TAC 116.115(b)(2)(B)] Sampling Requirements. If sampling is required, the permit holder shall contact the commission's Office of Compliance and Enforcement prior to sampling to obtain the proper data forms and procedures. All sampling and testing procedures must be approved by the executive director and coordinated with the regional representatives of the commission. The permit holder is also responsible for providing sampling facilities and conducting the sampling operations or contracting with an independent sampling consultant. [30 TAC 116.115(b)(2)(C)] Equivalency of Methods.

3.0 HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM - OVERVIEW
I. Objective Describe the process for identification, handling, tracking, collection,
accumulation, and recycling/treatment/disposal of hazardous and Class 1 waste generated by Kirby Inland Marine.
II. Process Descriptions
a. Hazardous and Class 1 wastes are generated from several processes at this facility.
Appendix 4 Page 1 of 19
76
i. Wash waters that have been used to clean out "RCRA empty" barges of any remaining residue, contaminants, etc., are reclaimed through a multi-step process, generating four separate waste streams:
1. A "solids settling system" is used to settle out mostly solid materials, commonly referred to as clabber "rust, muck and scale." This waste is managed in containers varying in size ranging from 55 gallon drums to vacuum/dewatering boxes.
2. A filter cake is generated in the final step of the wash water recycling process. This waste stream is managed in roll-off boxes.
3. Blow down water is another waste stream that accumulates during the water treatment process. Occasionally water that is deemed unusable will be sent out for further treatment or discharged under the facilities industrial water discharge permit.
4. Occasionally, the wash water from certain barges is not of a type that can be managed in the on-site system; this wash water will be pumped directly into on-site storage containers to be shipped off-site for disposal or recycling.
ii. Cleanout of barges of RCRA empty barges results in separate waste streams:
1. Contaminated tank clabber "rust and muck" is removed. The waste is managed in 55 gallon drums.
2. Occasionally, off spec products which may not be able to go for recycling or reclamation. This waste is pumped to on-site storage containers to be shipped off-site for disposal.
3. Rags and contaminated PPE and debris are generated during the clean out of the RCRA empty tanks. This waste is managed in 55 gallon drums on-site until it can be shipped off-site for disposal.
iii. Lab wastes generated from waste water testing.
iv. Class 1 Alkaline batteries are generated through normal use of battery operated equipment.
v. Aerosol cans past their useful life are stored on-site in 55 gallon drums prior to being sent off-site for disposal
III. General
a. The provisions of this procedure are established in accordance with Title 30 of the Texas Administrative Code and Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
b. Definitions
i. Person In Charge (PIC) - An employee that performs cleaning and other operations on the barges, generating a material designated as a hazardous or Class 1 waste.
ii. Hazardous Waste - Any discarded material exhibiting the "characteristics" of a hazardous waste, or "listed" as a hazardous waste according 40 CFR 261.
iii. Class 1 Waste - Any discarded material identified at 30 TAC 335.505 and 335.508

Introduction - Hazardous Waste - EPA
Hazardous Waste Training
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), an amendment to the Solid Waste Disposal Act, was enacted in 1976 to address the problem of how to safely dispose of the huge volumes of municipal and industrial solid waste generated nationwide.
One of the ways of addressing the problem of waste was to develop a comprehensive system for controlling hazardous waste from the time it is generated until its disposal (Cradle to Grave). Regulations for hazardous fall under Subtitle C, Hazardous Waste Program.
To fully understand Subtitle C, the Hazardous Waste Program, it is recommended that you review Subtitle D, Solid Waste Program, to understand the definition of a solid waste. If a waste is not a solid waste, as defined in Subtitle D, it cannot be a hazardous waste.
There are three types of hazardous wastes:
1) Nonspecific sources wastes (40 CFR 261.31) - generic wastes, commonly produced by manufacturing and industrial processes. *Gate 5 generates nonspecific source wastes
2) Specific source wastes (40 CFR 261.32) - wastes from specifically identified industries such as wood preserving, petroleum refining, and organic chemical manufacturing.
3) Commercial chemical products (40 CFR 261.33(e) and (f) - specific commercial chemical products or manufacturing chemical intermediates. There are three categories of hazardous waste handlers:
1) Solid waste generator - facility owner or operator or person who first creates a hazardous waste or a person who first makes the waste subject to the Subtitle C regulations.
There are three types of generators. Large quantity generators are defined as those facilities that generate over 1,000 kilograms per month of hazardous waste or over 1 kilogram of acutely hazardous waste per month. Small quantity generators produce more than 100 but less than 1,000 kilograms of hazardous waste at a site per month (or accumulated less than 1,000 kilograms at any one time). Or, they produce less than 1 kilogram of acutely hazardous waste per month (or accumulated less than 1 kilogram at any one time). Conditionally exempt small quantity generators generate less than 100 kilograms per month of hazardous waste and less than 1 kilogram per month of acutely hazardous waste.
If a large quantity generator accumulates hazardous waste on site for 90 days or less, facility personnel must be trained in the proper handling of hazardous waste.
*Gate 5 is considered as a large quantity generator
Appendix 4 Page 8 of 19
83
2) Transporters - any person engaged in the off-site transportation of manifested hazardous
1/2
waste within the United States. Transportation includes air, rail, highway, or water. Personnel training is not required.
3) Treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDF) - Treatment facilities treat hazardous waste to make it less hazardous or nonhazardous. Storage facilities hold hazardous waste for a temporary period, at the end of which the waste is treated, disposed, or stored elsewhere. Disposal facilities are areas where solid waste may be discharged, deposited, injected, dumped, spilled, leaked, or placed onto land or water where it may enter the environment or be emitted into the air discharged into any waters, including ground waters.
TSDFs are required to have permits to operate. However, EPA recognized that it would take a long time to issue all of the permits. Presently, there are interim permit status TSDFs which are allowed to operate until their permits are issued or denied. Permitted TSDFs have their permits.
TSDFs must also apply to EPA for an identification number, so their hazardous waste is properly identified and handled. In addition, all personnel working at facilities are required to be trained in hazardous waste management.
Facility personnel must successfully complete a program of classroom instruction or on-thejob training that teaches them to perform their duties in a way that ensures the facility's compliance with the training requirements. The owner or operator must ensure that this program includes all the elements described 40 CFR 265.16 or 40 CFR 264.16.
This program must be directed by a person trained in hazardous waste management procedures, and must include instruction which teaches facility personnel hazardous waste management procedures (including contingency plan implementation) relevant to the positions in which they are employed.
Facility personnel must successfully complete the program within six months after the date of their employment or assignment to a facility, or to a new position at a facility, whichever is later.
A review of the initial training must be conducted annually.

4. Safe work practices pertaining to ignition sources (i.e. open flame/spark or static electricity) with flammable liquid or gas present, use of solvents, nitrogen purging, and confined space entry safety
5. Proper transporting hazardous chemicals onsite or offsite.
6. Location of the written Hazard Communications program including the listing of hazardous chemicals, SDS information and the right to know requirements.
7. Methods and observations that may be used to detect the presence or release of a hazardous chemical in the work area through the use of monitoring devices, visual appearance, physical characteristics or odor.
8. Protective measures utilized to prevent exposure which can include safety procedures, personal protective equipment, and emergency actions.
9. Hazardous chemical or cargo disposal requirements.
10. Decontamination procedures
11. Physical Hazards -- Physical hazards include chemicals that are combustible, a compressed gas, explosive, flammable, an organic peroxide, an oxidizer, pyrophoric, unstable (reactive) or water-reactive.
12. Health Hazards -- Acute health hazards occur rapidly as a result of shortterm exposures and are of short duration. The acute effects referred to most frequently are irritation, corrosiveness, sensitization, and lethal dose. Chronic health hazards generally occur as a result of long-term exposure and are of long duration. The term chronic effect is often used to cover carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and mutagenicity. The following is an explanation of specific acute and chronic effects.
a. Acute effects may result from breathing vapor, swallowing the material, or direct contact with the body. Headaches, nausea, rashes, and burns are common examples of acute effects. When an employee becomes aware of acute symptoms, the fastest remedy is to leave the area or stop using the material. If vapors are causing a headache, fresh air is required. In the case of an irritation caused by direct contact, washing with soap and water can reduce symptoms.
b. Chronic effects may result from the repeated low concentration exposure to a material. Single exposures may not produce any immediate noticeable effect, but over a long-time, symptoms could

Operations
become apparent. Shortness of breath, loss of feeling, or the gradual drying of skin are other examples of chronic effects.
c. Special Hazards Occasionally, an SDS states that a substance poses a special hazard. If employees are using chemicals that pose special hazards, they should minimize exposure by following proper handling procedures and avoiding any unnecessary contact. The following are descriptions of carcinogens, mutagens, teratogens, neurotoxins, and sensitizers that must be noted:
i. Carcinogens are substances suspected or known to cause cancer in humans. If a substance has a carcinogen warning, it does not mean that exposed persons will automatically get cancer. The warning means that exposure to that chemical can increase the risk of getting cancer in one's lifetime. Benzene, butadiene and formaldehyde are examples of carcinogens.
ii. Mutagens are substances that cause changes in the genetic structure of subsequent generations. The chromosome damage that may be caused by mutagens could lead to birth defects in the children of the exposed individual, and these effects may be inherited by future generations.
iii. Teratogens are substances that can cause birth defects in a fetus. Those individuals who are either pregnant or are contemplating pregnancy should talk with a doctor about the potential teratogenic effects from the substances in their workplace.
iv. Neurotoxins are substances that cause damage to nerves or nervous tissue. Examples of neurotoxin effects include loss of feeling or mobility, uncontrollable shaking, and slurred speech. Lead paint is an example of a neurotoxin.
v. Sensitizers are chemicals that cause allergic reactions in a substantial proportion of exposed people or animals after repeated exposure to the chemical. In the way that some people are more sensitive to bee stings or poison ivy, people may be selectively sensitive to chemicals. Like other allergies, reactions to sensitizers may consist of severe rashes, itching, and breathing difficulties. Reactions to sensitizers may not occur until a person has had frequent contact with the chemical. Once a reaction has occurred, the sensitive individual should be reassigned to duties that limit exposure to the specific substance.

d. Solvent
i. Excessive inhalation of volatile solvent vapors may cause dizziness and headaches. Care should be taken when working with these materials to avoid working in confined areas or too close to the application of the material. If symptoms of dizziness or headaches occur while working with solvents, the employee should leave the work area and get fresh air until symptoms subside. If symptoms persist, medical attention should be sought immediately.
ii. Solvents are known to cause skin ailments such as drying and defatting of skin, irritation, and dermatitis. For this reason, prolonged or repeated contact with skin should be avoided. Employees who frequently work with solvents should wear gloves. In all cases, any skin exposed to these materials should be thoroughly washed with soap and water.
e. Oils
i. Oils, including mineral oils, lubricating oils, and greases, can cause skin ailments such as drying and defatting of skin, irritation, and dermatitis. For this reason, prolonged or repeated contact with skin should be avoided.
ii. Employees who frequently work with oils shall wear gloves. In all cases, any skin exposed to these materials should be thoroughly washed with soap and water.
f. Compressed Gases
i. Compressed gases include LPG, butadiene, propylene, acetylene, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and hydrogen. Hazards from compressed gases are two-fold: They may either be related to the manner in which the gas is stored under pressure or they may be related to the gas itself. The potential hazard from gases being stored under pressure is that, if stored or handled improperly, the tanks could explode. Tanks must be pressure controlled, restrained properly, and open/closed carefully.
ii. Additional hazards may be posed depending on the chemical composition of the gas. For example, LPG displaces oxygen and thereby acts as an asphyxiant. Butadiene, propane, acetylene, and propylene are extremely flammable. An increase in oxygen

concentrations may pose fire hazards. Nitrogen releases can readily displace oxygen to dangerous levels.
g. Corrosives
i. Extreme care should be taken when working with caustic solutions and acids. Direct skin contact with these materials may cause severe burns and scarring. Gloves, aprons, or other protective clothing must be worn when handling or transferring corrosive chemicals. Eye protection must be worn also, as corrosives can cause permanent eye damage. Inhalation of vapors and mists must be avoided and, if necessary, a respirator should be worn.
ii. Care should be taken to avoid mixing corrosives with incompatible materials. Contact with metals must be avoided.
iii. Caustic solutions and acids must not be mixed accidentally. Care should be taken when adding concentrated solutions to water. If needed, solutions should always be added to water (never the other way around).
h. A review of all physical and health hazard terms used on the SDS shall be taught, including but not limited to:
i. Hazardous Chemical/Hazardous Substance
ii. TLV -Threshold limit value
iii. PEL - Permissible exposure limit
iv. STEL - Short term exposure limit
