Section I - INTRODUCTION
Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC / Calumet Lubricants Inspection Date 07/25-29/2022
PURPOSE OF THE INSPECTION During the week of July 25, 2022, I, John Penland, conducted an unannounced inspection of the Calumet Lubricants facility (Calumet) located at 3333 Midway Avenue in Shreveport, Louisiana for compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). I was assisted on this inspection by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) inspectors AD Talton and Elizabeth Pham. The inspection included a walkthrough of the facility's production, waste generation, and management units and a review of the facility records related to hazardous waste management.
The Calumet facility was targeted for inspection as part of facilities located in Environmental Justice communities and Regional and National investigation initiatives to evaluate facilities subject to RCRA Subpart AA, BB, CC, regulations related to air emissions from hazardous waste management units.
We concluded the inspection of the Calumet facility on July 29, 2022, with a closing conference where we presented our provisional areas of concern.
This report serves as documentation of all onsite activities and observations during the inspection of the Calumet facility. Photographs taken during the inspection to document onsite observations are included as Appendix 1. A summary of all areas of concern identified during the inspection is provided in Section III.
FACILITY DESCRIPTION The Calumet facility is located on Midway Avenue in Shreveport, Louisiana. Calumet operates 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 52 weeks a year as an oil refinery which processes crude oil by use of distillation, reforming, hydro-finishing, propane de-asphalting, desulphurization, hydrogenation, solvent extraction, hydrotreating, MEK dewaxing and treating process equipment to produce propane, butane, diesel, fuel oils, lubricating oil, wax, lube stocks, transformer oil, and asphalt. An Amine scrubbing unit removes hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from the fuel gas system and a Claus Sulfur Recovery Plant converts the recovered H2S into molten sulfur for sale.
Feed stocks and finished products are stored in pressure tanks, floating roof tanks, cone roof tanks, and gas blanketed tanks. The feedstock is received by trailer truck and rail car. The finished products are shipped by truck and rail cars.
The Calumet facility is engaged in the production of paraffinic lubes, fully refined petroleum waxes, naphthenic lube oils, and associated fuel products. Calumet has a maximum unit throughput capacity of approximately 65,000 barrels per day.
A general map of the plant is included in Appendix 2.
The Calumet facility was issued the EPA ID# LAD008052334. Calumet is operating as a Large Quantity Generator (LQG) of hazardous waste since October 2017.

Section II - OBSERVATIONS
The team and I conducted the onsite inspection during normal business hours from July 26-29, 2022. During the inspection, the facility was conducting normal operations and all areas of the facility were in use. Throughout the week we visited each of the facility's waste generation, accumulation, and management areas. We also reviewed the facility's operating records pertaining to the facility's RCRA applicability and compliance requirements.
This section provides an abbreviated description of our daily activities. Appendix 1 provides photographs of our observations. This section provides information on our observations each day. Unless otherwise specified, the statements cited in this section reflect those claims made by facility personnel or documents reviewed during the inspection.
July 26, 2022
AD Talton, Elizabeth Pham, and I entered the facility at approximately 0905 hrs where we presented our credentials to Ms. Kristin Bahus and informed her that we were there to conduct an inspection of the facility under Section 3007 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). We were accompanied by members of Louisiana Department for Environmental Quality, Warren Williams and Brandon Brasuell. The opening conference sheet is shown in Appendix 5. I discussed the purpose of EPA's inspection and explained the right of Calumet to assert a Confidential Business Information claim for records requested by EPA. This discussion was followed by a presentation of EPA Region 6's Confidentiality Notice (40 CFR Section 2.203). Following this introduction, we conducted an inspection opening briefing with Kristin Bahus and Cedric McCall of Calumet Specialty Products. This included a discussion of the inspection process over the course of the week, and I presented the initial request for compliance records. The meeting concluded with a safety briefing at approximately 1045 hrs. Following the opening briefing, we conducted a walkthrough of Calumet's production and associated waste management areas at 1100 hrs. The walkthrough began on the South entrance of the office.
The Central Waste Accumulation Area is located outdoors south of the office building. Appendix 3 includes an inventory of the containers stored in this area. All containers initially appear to be in good condition and closed but are stored outdoors in direct sunlight. We identified 1 portable tank nearby, labeled as `Spent Carbon, For Env Use Only Rec 6/20' and Ms. Bahus said Calumet will research the source and use of this tank and whether it currently contains spent carbon.
The Oil Sample Box located outdoors southeast of the Central Waste Accumulation Area is unlabeled and open. According to Ms. Bahus, this box receives process samples for return to the Crude process. The sewer sumps in the Crude process area observed during the walkthrough are cleaned annually.
The Bundle Cleaning Pad located outdoors southeast of the Central Waste Accumulation Area is extensively stained and solid material was present at the time of this inspection. The pad is surrounded by a 3 to 4-foot concrete wall which may allow material to be released from the pad during the bundle cleaning. I requested an SOP at time of inspection. The exterior of the concrete wall has extensive staining. No accumulation of waste material was identified outside of the pad.
A frac tank is located within the secondary containment of tank 60. I requested the use of this frac-tank and its contents. We identified three open drums located in the tank farm immediately east of tank 112. Two of these drums were marked with weathered non-hazardous labels and the other was not labeled

or covered. We have requested the identity of the material, generating process, and end-use of the material in these containers. We identified one open roll-off container of material located near the wax hydrotreating area. The roll-off was not marked, so I requested information about the material in the roll-off such as, generating process and end-use of the material. Additional SDS documents for Criterion DN-3551 and HS-022 were requested during the walkthrough.
We departed the Calumet facility at approximately 1300 hrs.
July 27, 2022
AD Talton, Elizabeth Pham, and I entered the facility at approximately 0830 hrs. We were accompanied by members of Louisiana Department for Environmental Quality, Warren Williams and Brandon Brasuell. New members from the Calumet facility joined on this day's walkthrough including Mark Cheeseman, Chet Yeo, James Desonier and counsel for Calumet, Eddie Lewis and Brittany Covert. Following introductions, the walkthrough for the second day of inspection started at approximately 0900 hrs.
We identify one 55-gallon drum of sludge from the knockout pots located near the MEK Unit. This container is marked as hazardous waste with an accumulation start date of 6/29/2022. Based on its location outside of the designated central accumulation area, I asked Ms. Bahus to verify that this drum has been included in the facility's weekly <90-day container inspections.
On the eastern side of the MEK unit, we identify four frac tanks which are open. Two are marked with non-hazardous waste stickers and two are marked with hazardous waste stickers and with "pending analysis" signs. According to the facility representatives, these tanks were empty and not in use. Each frac tank held an accumulation of liquid but facility representatives stated this may have been precipitation. Due to the labeling and the presence of liquid inside the tanks we were not able to determine whether these frac tanks were out-of-service.
Out Of Service (OOS) - Soy Oil Hydrotreating Reactor
We observe five, 55-gallon metal drums of unused catalyst that will be used in the reactor, per the facility representatives. According to James Desonier and Chet Yeo, this unit has been out of service for an extended period of time (I later requested an actual date of OOS). The containers storing the catalyst are in poor condition with rusted lids with material exposed. The containers were marked D202019, but we were uncertain if this signified a production date. I raised the issue of speculative accumulation with Kristin Bahus and Calumet's counsel for this material and the facility will need to make a waste determination.
Laboratory Exterior Waste Accumulation Area
We identify three 55-gallon containers located underneath an awning outside south of the laboratory. One is marked as FDA waste satellite accumulation, one is marked as carbon disulfide waste satellite accumulation, and one is marked MEK Wax waste satellite accumulation. The FDA waste drum, and the carbon disulfide waste drum are not equipped with a lock ring (closure devices for waste containers should be secured in the closed position). The MEK Wax drum was equipped with a lidded funnel that was latched at the time of this inspection.

Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC / Calumet Lubricants Inspection Date 07/25-29/2022
Next to the laboratory exterior waste drums, we found two 55-gallon closed-head drums which were unlabeled and contained an unidentified material. Next to the East Diesel Salt Drum we observed a carbon canister which was in poor condition. The carbon canister was open and appeared to have been used. No waste markings were present. In the Vacuum unit we found two drums marked with nonhazardous waste labels but were also marked as "unknown?". I requested a waste determination for the drums' contents. On the West side of the crude unit, was an accumulation of sixteen, 55-gallon drums of an unused amine product. According to Chet Yeo and James Desonier, these are a product that the facility received but cannot use in their process. No determination has been made for this material and there was no information to determine how long the amine product had been there. This material is being assessed under the definition of speculative accumulation and a waste determination will need to be made. In the same area as the drums noted, was a pallet with an accumulation of what appeared to be 5-gallon pails of paint. No waste markings or accumulation dates were present on these containers and the facility will need to make a waste determination for this material.
DAF management
DAF float from the petroleum refining industry is a listed waste with the waste code of K048. This waste is generated when it is removed from the DAF unit. The facility accumulates this waste in the Float Tank prior to pumping it to the Oily Sludge Thickener Tank where it is treated to remove excess water. At the time of this inspection, the pump associated with the Float Tank had released the DAF float into the secondary containment for the Float Tank due to a faulty seal.
While the DAF Float is generated after removal from the DAF Unit, the accumulation and treatment tanks used for its management appear to be exempt from the RCRA permitting requirements as codified in 40 CFR 270.1(c)(2)(v). However, releases of this material are releases of hazardous waste and do not constitute a new point of generation for this waste.
Bundle cleaning pad
One 55-gallon drum of "sulfur waste" was observed located on the bundle cleaning pad. This container is unlabeled and is in poor condition. Shortly after we arrived at the pad, a facility operator arrives with an over-pack drum to repackage the 55-gallon drum. After the drum is placed in the over-pack drum, the operator places a hazardous waste label on the container and marks an accumulation date as 7/27/2022. However, we are unable to confirm this date. Based on the condition of the container and the fact that it was unlabeled when first observed. A review of both the waste determination and the accumulation start date for this container will be conducted.
Laboratory
In the laboratory one satellite accumulation jar for chloride testing waste is observed. According to the lab technician responsible for this container, they transfer its contents to the 55-gallon MEK wax drum located on the south side of the laboratory. This drum is in service but unlabeled at the time of this inspection. One other satellite accumulation bucket is observed in a laboratory hood. The bucket is
5
Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC / Calumet Lubricants Inspection Date 07/25-29/2022
labeled as carbon disulfide (P022, D001, F035) satellite accumulation container. Waste is transferred to the 55-gallon carbon disulfide satellite accumulation drum located outside south of the laboratory.
Concluding the walkthrough, I reviewed the Daily Summary from 7/27/2022 with the Calumet representatives. No new information was provided during the meeting.
We departed the Calumet facility at approximately 1300 hrs.
July 28, 2022
AD Talton, Elizabeth Pham, and I entered the facility at approximately 0830 hrs. We were accompanied by members of Louisiana Department for Environmental Quality, Warren Williams and Brandon Brasuell. Calumet is represented by Kristin Bahus, Mark Cheesman, Chet Yeo, James Desonier, and counsel for Calumet, Eddie Lewis and Brittany Covert. The third day of the inspection started at approximately 0905 hrs.
I reviewed the Daily Summary Items from July 26 and 27, 2022. Calumet shared the following documents:
Calumet's Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan Waste Profiles for hazardous and non-hazardous waste Calumet's Clean Air Act Title V permit Facility Plot Map WWTU diagram Process Overview diagram Annual Waste Reports for 2019-2021 <90-day hazardous waste inspection forms for January 4, 2019, through July 22, 2019
According to Kristin Bahus, Calumet is preparing a response which will address all outstanding issues in a single document rather than addressing them piecemeal.
I then began a discussion about documents pertaining to Large Quantity Generators of hazardous waste. The first item for discussion was training records for specific members of the Calumet facility. The requested records should demonstrate compliance with the requirements of 40 CFR 262.17(a)(7). The records requested were for the following personnel: Laura Ellis, Brian Smith, Billy McClain, James Desonier, Kristi Shoemaker, Phillip Ambrose, Jason Brancamp, Cory Farris, Eileen Cronin and Michael Hall, Jr. The second item discussed was Calumet's Contingency Plan. According to Chet Yeo and Kristin Bahus, Calumet is currently in the process of revising its Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan to reflect its implementation of the ICS. Calumet has hired Heritage Environment Services to consult on these revisions. At the time of this inspection, the Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan is out of date. The plan provided to us was last revised in March of 2013. As a result, the following sections are not accurate: Emergency Coordinator list, Spill Response Team/Contractors, and List of Emergency Response Personnel. The Plan references external documents and diagrams. We request the following attachments:

I also request SOPs related to waste handling and transport, <90-day inspections, generation of K050, and SDS's for Criterion DN-3551, 16 drums of amine located on western side of facility, and for soy oil catalyst.
The EPA team and I, along with members of LDEQ reviewed documents from the OneDrive provided by Calumet's counsel Eddie Lewis and Brittany Covert. We departed the Calumet facility at approximately 1430 hrs.
July 29, 2022
AD Talton, Elizabeth Pham, and I entered the facility at approximately 0815 hrs. We were accompanied by a member of Louisiana Department for Environmental Quality, Warren Williams. Members from the Calumet facility joined, including Mark Cheeseman and Kristin Bahus, and counsel for Calumet, Eddie Lewis and Brittany Covert.
To start the day off, James Desonier led a table-top explanation of the refinery's production units and walkthrough of the facility's operations. The process flow diagram for the facility is shown in Appendix 4. I then requested to speak to Kristi Shoemaker and asked her questions on the management of weekly inspection reports. The EPA team and I, along with members of LDEQ reviewed documents from the OneDrive provided by Calumet's counsel Eddie Lewis and Brittany Covert.
The closing conference began at 1300 hrs. The closing conference sheet is shown in Appendix 5. I presented the remaining areas of concerns with facility representatives and together we reviewed the outstanding document requests and established a schedule for submittal.
We departed the Calumet facility at approximately 1400 hrs.
Daily e-mails were sent to facility after the end of each day of the inspection. Records of the daily emails are shown in Appendix 6.
Section III - AREAS OF CONCERN
During the closing conference, I reviewed the 16 areas of concern noted during the inspection.
The following is a list of potential areas of concern discussed with the facility representatives. See Section II for details of EPA observations.

Daily Summary
Inspection Start - Approximately 8:30am Facility Walkthrough
o Beginning at approximately 9:00 am o Identified one 55-gallon drum of sludge from the knockout pots located near the MEK
Unit. This container was marked as hazardous waste with an accumulation start date of 6/29/2022. Based on its location outside of the designated central accumulation area, we need to verify that this drum has been included in the facility's weekly <90-day container inspections. o On the eastern side of the MEK unit, we identified 4 frac tanks which were open. 2 were marked with non-hazardous waste stickers, 2 were marked with hazardous waste stickers and also with "pending analysis" signs. According to the facility representatives, these tanks were emptied and not in use. Each frac tank held an accumulation of liquid but this may have been precipitation. Due to the labeling and the presence of liquid inside the tanks we were not able to determine whether these frac tanks were actually out of service. o OOS Soy oil hydrotreating reactor - we identified five 55-gallon containers of unused catalyst for this process. According to James Desonier and Chet Yeo, this unit has been out of service for an extended period of time (will need an actual date of OOS). The containers storing this catalyst were in poor condition and we were able to see into the containers through the corroded lids. The containers were marked D202019, but we
98
Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC / Calumet Lubricants Inspection Date 07/25-29/2022
were uncertain if this signified a production date. I raised the issue of speculative accumulation with Kristin Bahus and Calumet's counsel for this material and the facility will need to make a waste determination. o Laboratory exterior waste accumulation area. - Identified three 55-gallon containers located underneath an awning south of the laboratory. 1 marked as FDA waste satellite accumulation, 1 marked as carbon disulfide waste satellite accumulation, 1 MEK Wax waste satellite accumulation. The FDA waste drum and the carbon disulfide waste drum were not equipped with a lock ring (closure devices for waste containers should be secured in the closed position). The MEK Wax drum was equipped with a lidded funnel that was latched at the time of this inspection. o Next to the exterior laboratory waste drums we found two 55-gallon closed-head drums which were unlabeled and contained an unidentified material. o Next to the East Diesel Salt Drum we observed a carbon canister which was in poor condition. The carbon canister was open and appeared to have been used. No waste markings were present. o In the Vacuum unit we found 2 drums marked with non-haz waste labels but were also marked as "unknown?". We have requested a waste determination for the drums' contents. o On the West side of the crude unit we found an accumulation of sixteen 55-gallon drums of an unused amine product. According to Chet Yeo and James Desonier, these are a product that the facility received but can not use in their process. No determination has been made for this material and we were unable to determine how long the amine product had been there. This material is being assessed under the definition of speculative accumulation and a waste determination will need to be made. o In the same area as the drums noted above we found a pallet with an accumulation of what appeared to be 5-gallon pails of paint. No waste markings or accumulation dates were present on these containers and the facility will need to make a waste determination for this material. o DAF management - DAF float from the petroleum refining industry is a listed waste with the waste code of K048. This waste is generated when it is removed from the DAF unit. The facility accumulates this waste in the Float Tank prior to pumping it to the Oily Sludge Thickener Tank where it is treated to remove excess water. At the time of this inspection, the pump associated with the Float Tank had released the DAF float into the secondary containment for the Float Tank due to a faulty seal. Calumet will need to address this release.
Applicability Review: DAF Float (K048) is generated when it is removed from the DAF Unit. The tanks used for the accumulation and treatment of the DAF float are part of a tank system that is subject to section 402 of the Clean Water Act. 40 CFR 270.1(c)(2)(v) establishes an exemption from the hazardous waste permitting requirements for wastewater treatment units as defined in 40 CFR 260.10. 40 CFR 260.10 defines a wastewater treatment unit as: o (1) Is part of a wastewater treatment facility that is subject to regulation under either section 402 or 307(b) of the Clean Water Act; and
99
Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC / Calumet Lubricants Inspection Date 07/25-29/2022
o (2) Receives and treats or stores an influent wastewater that is a hazardous waste as defined in 261.3 of this chapter, or that generates and accumulates a wastewater treatment sludge that is a hazardous waste as defined in 261.3 of this chapter, or treats or stores a wastewater treatment sludge which is a hazardous waste as defined in 261.3 of this Chapter; and
o (3) Meets the definition of tank or tank system in 260.10 of this chapter.
Therefore, while the DAF Float is generated after removal from the DAF Unit, the accumulation and treatment tanks used for its management appear to be exempt from the RCRA permitting requirements as codified in 40 CFR 270.1(c)(2)(v). However, releases of this material are releases of hazardous waste and do not constitute a new point of generation for this waste.
o Bundle cleaning pad - we observed one 55-gallon drum of "sulfur waste" located on the bundle cleaning pad. This container was unlabeled and appeared to be in poor condition when first observed. Shortly after we arrived at the pad, an operator arrived with an over-pack drum to repackage this waste container. After the drum was placed in the over-pack drum, the operator placed a hazardous waste label on the container and marked the accumulation date as 7/27/2022. However, we are unable to confirm this date. Based on the condition of the container and the fact that it was unlabeled when first observed, we need to review both the waste determination and the accumulation start date for this container.
o Laboratory Identified one satellite accumulation container for chloride testing waste. According to the lab technician responsible for this container, they add its contents to the 55-gallon wax MEK drum located on the south side of the laboratory Identified one 55-gallon drum used for the satellite accumulation of MEK waste. This drum was in service but unlabeled at the time of this inspection. One other Satellite Accumulation container observed in a laboratory hood. Container labeled as Carbon disulfide (P022, D001, D035) satellite accumulation container. Waste is transferred to the 55-gallon Carbon Disulfide Satellite accumulation drum located south of the laboratory.
