Process Description
Areas of Concern
Galliano Marine Service, LLC (GMS) operates a fleet of
No
vessels transporting hazardous waste, non-hazardous
waste, and used oil from offshore drill ships and oil
platforms to Port Fourchon. The company does not have
its own dock space, but delivers waste generated offshore

are responsible for unloading, storing, and disposing of
the waste once it arrives at the dock. GMS does not store
any transported waste for its customers. Maintenance on
GMS's vessels is performed at third party shipyards that
manage any waste generated during cleaning or
overhauling the boats. GMS is a VSQG of hazardous waste
and does not maintain a MARPOL COA.

SECTION II - OBSERVATIONS
Tenant: Galliano Marice Service, LLC
Section: 2.4
Date: 6/5/2024, 9:15 A.M.
Contains AOC: No Contains CBI: No
Lead Inspector: Vince Damiano Attendees: Matt Labat (QHSE Manager), Brittney Serigney (Environmental Supervisor)
Mr. Labat and Ms. Serigney provided the inspection team with a summary of operations at GMS. GMS operates a fleet of vessels transporting hazardous waste, non-hazardous waste, and used oil from offshore drill ships and oil platforms to Port Fourchon. GMS also transports MARPOL Annex V waste (i.e., municipal waste) from ships to shore. Although GMS's vessels operate out of Port Fourchon, the company's office is in Cut Off, Louisiana.
GMS is registered as a transporter of hazardous waste (LAD98159932). When transporting hazardous waste, GMS signs the hazardous waste manifest as Transporter #1, with the drill ship or oil platform signing as the generator. The company does not have its own dock space, but delivers waste generated offshore directly to its customers' facilities at the port. Customers are responsible for unloading, storing, and disposing of the waste once it arrives at their docks. GMS does not store any transported waste for its customers and does not maintain a MARPOL COA.
GMS is a VSQG of hazardous waste, mostly generated from day-to-day operations on its vessels (i.e., paint waste). GMS arranges for third party transporters to pick up any hazardous waste generated onboard directly from the boats when they dock. GMS does not store any hazardous waste generated by its vessels at the port. In addition, all maintenance on GMS's vessels is performed at third party shipyards, which manage any waste generated during cleaning or overhauling the boats.
Since GMS does not maintain a facility at Port Fourchon, no visual inspection was conducted following the opening meeting. No apparent areas of concern (AOCs) were identified during the opening conference; however, further EPA review may change or add to their potential AOCs.
At the end of the opening conference, the inspection team requested the following information from GMS: Information on the approximate number of vessels owned and people employed by GMS, as well as clarification on the name used by the company to register as a transporter with EPA (see Appendix 1). The company's most recent RCRA notification (see Appendix 2). The hazardous waste manifests for any waste transported in May 2024 by the vessels C-Ranger and Island Ventures. In a follow-up email, Ms. Serigney explained that neither C-Ranger nor Island Ventures transported hazardous waste in May 2024; however, other GMS vessels did transport hazardous waste that month, and GMS provided those manifests instead (see Appendix 3).
SECTION III - RECORDS REVIEW
No RCRA regulated records were reviewed during this focused onsite inspection besides those mentioned in Section II.
SECTION IV - AREA OF CONCERN No apparent AOCs were identified during this inspection. SECTION V -FOLLOW UP Documents or files provided by the facility were transmitted via email and included the provision of documents requested.
