9) Previous Inspection History
The Cymer-Dayton LLC facility was last inspected on April 22, 2021, by Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC). Deficiencies of container management were noted.
10) Findings
On May 7, 2024, EPA inspector Paula Whiting, accompanied by TDEC inspectors Lisa Hutchings, Harry McCann and Beverly Philpot arrived at Cymer-Dayton LLC at approximately 9:30 a.m. EDT. The inspectors signed in at the front window and were escorted to a conference room. Mr. Robert Linn, Environmental, Health, and Safety Manager received the inspectors. The inspectors introduced themselves, showed their credentials to the representative, and explained the purpose of the visit.
The inspectors described the anticipated use of a digital camera during the inspection and provided a request for records. The EPA inspector explained that the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act's classification of a "small business" is generally set by the Small Business Administration using the business' SIC/NAICS code and annual receipts or number of employees. A copy of the EPA's information sheet for small businesses can be found at https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2017-06/documents/smallbusinessinfo.pdf. The EPA inspector also discussed the company's ability, pursuant to 40 C.F.R. 2.203, to assert a business confidentiality claim for information submitted to the EPA. The company did not assert a business confidentiality claim.

Mr. Linn provided an overview of the facility's history and current operations during the opening conference. The inspection participants also discussed health and safety protocols and were required to wear personal protective equipment before the facility representative led the inspectors on a tour of the facility's operations. Below is a description of the observations made during the inspection.
11) Inspection Observations
Cymer-Dayton has sixteen active hazardous waste streams. Mr. Linn stated that hazardous waste determinations were based on mass balance and not samples sent out for external lab analyses. At the time of the inspection no hazardous waste profiles were available for review.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11], a person who generates a solid waste, as defined in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 261.2], must make an accurate determination as to whether that waste is a hazardous waste in order to ensure wastes are properly managed according to applicable RCRA regulations articulated in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11].
11.1 Main Warehouse The main warehouse is a staging area for in-process raw material and finished chemicals. There was no hazardous waste observed in this area. The warehouse annex is kept warmer than the rest of the building to store the lauric acid. Mr. Hunter Bolton, EHS Manager, Cymer-Decatur LLC joined the inspection team.
The flammable storage area contained finished products that have a storage shelf life up to 5 years. No hazardous waste was observed in this area. The inspectors observe the floor drain which extended outside the door and contained liquid and floor sweepings (Pictures 1-2). The inspectors explained that the floor drain must be kept clean of liquids and debris to capture any potential releases from the stored containers. This is an area of concern.
11.2 Maintenance Shop and Universal Waste Storage The maintenance shop was a parts and supplies storage room. No hazardous waste was observed in this area. However, the inspectors observed that the emergency contact list on the wall was out of date (Pictures 3-4). While emergency equipment and communication are readily available in the area, the facility failed to post an updated listing of emergency contacts and the locations of its emergency equipment in the maintenance area and near universal waste storage area.
The universal waste storage area in a loading area between the maintenance shop and maintenance offices. The inspectors observed a 4-foot box of universal waste lamps that was not closed, a 4-foot fiberboard box of universal waste lamps, a 3-foot fiberboard box of spent
EPA-RCRA CEI Report Cymer-Dayton LLC TND981023674 May 7, 2024 LSASD Project ID: 24-0080

high intensity discharge lamps that was not closed, and a 55-gallon container of spent aerosol cans that was dated October 24, 2024 (Pictures 5-9). All containers were labeled "Universal Waste". With the exception, of the spent aerosol cans container, all other containers were dated October 28, 2023. The 3-foot fiberboard container and the HID container were closed, and the October 24, 2024, date was changed to October 24, 2023, during the inspection.
Pursuant Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.12(2)(d)4. [40 C.F.R. 273.13(d)], a SQHUW must manage universal waste lamps in a way that prevents releases of any universal waste or component of a universal waste to the environment.
11.3 Central Accumulation Area (CAA) The central accumulation area (CAA) is a fenced in area with a locked gate (Pictures 10-12, 44). There is a `90 Day Hazardous Waste Storage Area' sign near the gate (Picture 25). However, there were no `No Smoking' signs posted along the fence. This is an area of concern.
Outside the CAA was a staging area with three 55-gallon containers on a wooden pallet (Pictures 13-16). Two of the containers were labeled as hazardous waste, all of the containers were closed but did not have accumulation start dates. In addition, the containers were not authorized to be staged outside the CAA. The area was labeled as satellite accumulation area however, the facility is not allowed to move containers from SAA to SAA. Thus, these containers were not at the point of generation.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(v)(I) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(5)(i)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator must mark or label its containers with the following: the words "Hazardous Waste"; an indication of the hazards of the contents; and the date upon which each period of accumulation begins clearly visible for inspection on each container.
Near the CAA were over forty 275-gallon intermediate bulk container (IBC) totes (Pictures 1718). Mr. Linn explained the totes contained off-specification fatty acids that were left over from the acid chloride process. Mr. Linn had been in his current position for over a year, and the material had been on site prior to him becoming EHS Manager. The totes have been stored for over a year and may be accumulated speculatively2. The aisle space between the totes was very
2 Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1) [40 C.F.R. 261.1(c)(8) and 40 C.F.R. 261.2(e)(2)], a material is "accumulated speculatively" if it is accumulated before being recycled. A material is not accumulated speculatively, however, if the person accumulating it can show that the material is potentially recyclable and has a feasible means of being recycled; and that--during the calendar year (commencing on January 1)--the amount of material that is recycled, or transferred to a different site for recycling, equals at least 75 percent by weight or volume of the amount of that material accumulated at the beginning of the period. Materials must be placed in a storage unit with a label indicating the first date that the material began to be accumulated. If placing a label on the storage unit is not practicable, the accumulation period must be documented through an inventory log or other appropriate method. In calculating the percentage of turnover, the 75 percent requirement is to be applied to each material of the same type (e.g., slags from a single smelting process) that is recycled in the same way (i.e., from which the same material is recovered or that is used in the same way). Materials accumulating in units that would be exempt from regulation under 261.4(c) are not to be included in making the calculation. Materials that are already defined as solid wastes also are not to be included in making the calculation. Materials are no longer in this category once they are removed from accumulation for recycling, however.

narrow, and the inspectors observed a white substance released to the ground between the totes (Pictures 19-20). One of the totes were observed to be contracting in on itself (Pictures 21-22). Another tote was observed to be bulging (Picture 23).
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11], a person who generates a solid waste, as defined in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 261.2], must make an accurate determination as to whether that waste is a hazardous waste in order to ensure wastes are properly managed according to applicable RCRA regulations articulated in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11].
Near the tote storage area was a 55-gallon container of carbon filter and a spill kit (Picture 24). Mr. Linn stated that the carbon filter container was still in use.
Near the CAA entrance was a square container that had coiled hoses with rocks on top. Mr. Matt Riley, EHS Technician, stated the container was a spill kit (Picture 45), however there were wasps and/or bees inside the container that needed to be removed, thus the spill kit was unavailable. This is an area of concern.
Inside the CAA, there were 98 total containers: thirty-four 55-gallon containers of nonhazardous waste (Picture 35) and sixty-four 55-gallon container of hazardous waste. Of the 64 hazardous waste containers, two of the containers did not have start accumulation dates (Pictures 26, 27, 30, 33). These containers were marked with the waste profile number 68692, Waste Solid Containing Flammable Liquids, and Waste Flammable Solid, D001, F003, F005. Mr. Linn pointed out that the container with the curled label did have an accumulation start date of March 23, 2024, but the ink had been washed off (Pictures 30, 33).
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(v)(I) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(5)(i)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator must mark or label its containers with the following: the words "Hazardous Waste"; an indication of the hazards of the contents; and the date upon which each period of accumulation begins clearly visible for inspection on each container.
One of the 55-gallon hazardous waste containers dated February 27, 2024, was observed to be damaged near the bottom (Picture 29).
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(i)(II) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(1)(ii)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, if a container holding hazardous waste is not in good condition, or if it begins to leak, the generator must immediately transfer the hazardous waste from this container to a container that is in good condition, or immediately manage the waste in some other way that complies with the LQG Permit Exemption.
EPA-RCRA CEI Report Cymer-Dayton LLC TND981023674 May 7, 2024 LSASD Project ID: 24-0080

The inspectors observed seven black plastic 55-gallon containers of acid chloride fiberglass insulation hazardous waste. The containers had taped on labels that were faded (Pictures 31, 32, 34). The containers did not have indicators of hazard. Mr. Linn had the hazardous waste inventory and stated that the seven containers were not listed on the inventory. Thus, neither Mr. Linn nor Mr. Riley were aware of when the seven containers were added to the CAA.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(v)(I) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(5)(i)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator must mark or label its containers with the following: an indication of the hazards of the contents; and the date upon which each period of accumulation begins clearly visible for inspection on each container.
In addition, there were five 275-gallon IBC totes of Hazardous Trench Sludge. One of the totes was visibly bulging (Picture 36).
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(i)(II) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(1)(ii)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, if a container holding hazardous waste is not in good condition, or if it begins to leak, the generator must immediately transfer the hazardous waste from this container to a container that is in good condition, or immediately manage the waste in some other way that complies with the LQG Permit Exemption.
The secondary containment surrounding the CAA had a sump area that extended beyond the CAA, past the fatty acid totes and into a small wetland. Inside the CAA, the sump area contained vegetative debris that was approximately one-inch thick. The sump area was not clean or clear to receive a release of the largest container. This is an area of concern.
The inspectors observed that the concrete surface of the CAA had several cracks and had not been maintained or repaired (Pictures 38-43). The facility did not maintain by repairing and/or resealing the secondary containment from gaps and cracks. This is an area of concern.
The inspectors recommended installing a roof and/or overhang on CAA to prevent the weather from damaging the container labels and reduce the damage of the secondary containment concrete.
11.4 Flammable Storage Area Next to the CAA was the flammable storage area (Picture 51). Facility representatives explained that product and raw material are stored in this area. The inspectors observed eight 55-gallon containers of black dye/toulene/Hexion E-70 resin solution (Pictures 48-49). On at least one of the containers, the inspectors observed a "REV. DATE 26-OCT-2017." Mr. Linn explained that the contents were off specification for the previous customer, but still viable. The containers of resin solution were marked as on `Hold Do Not Use, Pending Management Approval'. Mr. Linn stated that the facility was currently negotiating with an auto racing company to purchase the resin solution. The condition of the containers and labels, in addition to the 10/26/2017 date, raises concerns about the length of time the containers have been stored. The inspectors
EPA-RCRA CEI Report Cymer-Dayton LLC TND981023674 May 7, 2024 LSASD Project ID: 24-0080
Page 7 of 28
expressed concern about the length of time the containers had been stored on site, whether the resin solution could be used, and whether this material may be accumulated speculatively.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1) [40 C.F.R. 261.2(c)(4) and 40 C.F.R. 261.2(e)(2)], spent materials, listed and characteristic sludges, listed and characteristic byproducts, and scrap metals are solid wastes when accumulated speculatively. Materials accumulated speculatively are solid wastes, even if the recycling involves use, reuse, or return to the original process.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11], a person who generates a solid waste, as defined in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 261.2], must make an accurate determination as to whether that waste is a hazardous waste in order to ensure wastes are properly managed according to applicable RCRA regulations articulated in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) [40 C.F.R. 262.11].
Across from the resin solution containers the inspectors observed ten closed, undated 275gallon IBC totes. Three of the 275-gallon IBC totes were labeled or marked as Hexanol and Water Organic Waste (Picture 46, 47, 50). The remaining seven totes were not properly marked or labeled with words identifying the contents. It was unknown whether the contents were a spent material or a by-product exhibiting a characteristic of hazardous waste. Mr. Linn was unaware of ten 275-gallon IBC totes waste being stored in the flammable storage area, and contacted Mr. Shaun McMillin, Operations Manager for additional information. Mr. McMillin arrived and explained that the totes were to be distilled to reclaim hexanol. After recovery the hexanol would be stored in a 10,000-gallon bulk product tank. The wastewater would be sent off-site to Aqua Treat.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 262.11], a person who generates a solid waste, as defined in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.02(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 261.2], must make an accurate determination as to whether that waste is a hazardous waste in order to ensure wastes are properly managed according to applicable RCRA regulations articulated in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(b) (2021) [40 C.F.R. 262.11].
11.5 Line 1 Hazardous Waste Tank Farm Tanks T-61 and T-62 are hazardous waste tanks sitting inside a walled secondary containment area. In addition, the remaining tanks in this farm are non-hazardous wastewater tanks. The inspectors observed that the secondary containment was clean and free of gaps and cracks.
T-62 was out of service at the time of the inspection. Tank T-61 and its ancillary equipment were marked with Subpart BB tags at the valves only (Pictures 52-58). The leak interfaces were not marked in such a manner that they could be distinguished readily from other pieces of equipment. Mr. Linn and Mr. Riley stated that they thought that the tags covered the flanges
EPA-RCRA CEI Report Cymer-Dayton LLC TND981023674 May 7, 2024 LSASD Project ID: 24-0080

and valves together. Cymer is required to determine if the waste in the tank has an average volatile organic concentration of greater than 500 PPM. It does not appear that Cymer conducted this determination.
Additionally, tanks subject to Subpart CC are required to have an annual visual inspection of the top of the tank. No records were found for the tank Subpart CC inspections.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(ii) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(2)], which incorporates Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.05(28) [40 C.F.R. Part 265, Subpart BB], and is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator accumulating hazardous waste in tanks must comply with the RCRA Subpart BB organic air emission standards for equipment leaks, including, but not limited to, the requirement to mark each piece of equipment in a manner that it can be distinguished readily from other pieces of equipment, Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.05(28)(a)3. [40 C.F.R. 265.1050(c)].

Part 265, Subpart CC], a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator accumulation hazardous waste containing an average volatile organic concentration of greater than 500 ppm at the point of waste generation in tanks must comply with the RCRA Subpart CC Organic Air Emission Standards for tanks.
11.6 Lab Central Accumulation Area The Line 1 laboratory has an outside CAA in an attached shed. The inspectors observed a 55gallon container of Waste Solid Containing Flammable Liquid, D001, D035, F003, F005, dated April 25, 2024, sitting inside a concrete secondary containment (Pictures 59-61). The shed was not secured from unauthorized access and did not have `No Smoking' signs posted. The inspectors observed releases inside the secondary containment.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(i)(VI) [40 CFR 262.17(a)(1)(vi)(B)] which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, "No Smoking" signs must be conspicuously placed wherever there is a hazard from ignitable or reactive waste.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(vi) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(6)], which incorporates Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(12). [40 C.F.R. 262.251], and is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator is required to maintain and operate its facility to minimize the possibility of a fire, explosion, or any unplanned sudden or nonsudden release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water which could threaten human health or the environment.
Near the CAA were two clamshells containing 55-gallon containers. The first container was a raw material storage container. The second container was a SAA of Waste Resins with Spent Solvents (Pictures 62-63). However, the SAA container was labeled with the words `hazardous
EPA-RCRA CEI Report Cymer-Dayton LLC TND981023674 May 7, 2024 LSASD Project ID: 24-0080
Page 9 of 28
waste' and the indication of hazard. In addition, the SAA container was not at or near the point of generation, nor under the control of the generator. Mr. Linn stated that the container could not be stored inside the building. The inspectors stated that the SAA container should be placed in the CAA.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(f)1. [40 C.F.R. 262.15(a)], a generator may accumulate as much as 55 gallons of non-acute hazardous waste in containers at or near the point of generation where wastes initially accumulate, which is under the control of the operator of the process generating the waste, without a permit or without having interim status.
Inside the laboratory near the door, was a 55-gallon SAA container of Waste Solid Containing Flammable Liquid, D001, D035, F003, F005 that was labeled and closed (Pictures 64-65). Further inside the laboratory as the following (Pictures 66-71):
One 55-gallon SAA container of Waste Solid Containing Flammable Liquid, D001, D035, F003, F005 that was closed and labeled;
A one-gallon SAA container of hazardous waste liquid with a funnel that was not closed but labeled;
A one-gallon SAA High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) waste container that was closed and labeled;
A one-gallon SAA HPLC waste container that was not labeled but closed; Two one-gallon SAA containers near and/or adjacent to the sink. The two SAA waste
containers had labels but did not have hazard indicators and one container had a funnel that was not closed; and An eyewash, a sprinkler system, and a spill kit.

Flammable Liquid, D001, D035, F003, F005 (Picture 72). All containers were observed to be closed and labeled with indication of the hazards of the contents.
11.8 Building 6 Building 6 had two 55-gallon SAA containers. The inspectors observed a container of Waste Flammable Liquid with an open funnel on a secondary containment pallet, and a container of Waste Solid Containing Flammable Liquid, D001, D035, F003, F005 that was not closed (Pictures 73-75). All containers were observed labeled with indication of the hazards of the contents.

Upstairs, the inspectors observed that the hazardous waste Tank 613, its ancillary equipment, and the adjoining pipe rack were marked with Subpart BB tags at the valves only (Pictures 7679). Tank 613 is a distillation tank that distills, strips, and adjusts the pH. The leak interfaces were not marked in such a manner that they could be distinguished readily from other pieces of equipment. Cymer is required to determine if the waste in the tank has an average volatile organic concentration of greater than 500 PPM. It does not appear that Cymer conducted this determination.
Additionally, tanks subject to Subpart CC are required to have an annual visual inspection of the top of the tank. No records were found for the tank Subpart CC inspections.
The Subpart AA operating records were observed to be incomplete and missing information that included but was not limited to the following:
Documentation of compliance with the process vent standards; Documentation and certification of compliance with the closed-vent systems and
control devices standards and reduction of total organics; Design documentation and monitoring, operating, and inspection information for each
closed-vent system and control device; and Up-to-date information and data used to determine process vent applicability.

11.9 Building 6 Tank Farm Hazardous waste tanks 631, 632, and 633 are all in service tanks (Pictures 80-82). The inspectors observed each tank, and its ancillary equipment were marked with Subpart BB tags at the valves only (Pictures 76-79). The leak interfaces were not marked in such a manner that they could be distinguished readily from other pieces of equipment. Cymer is required to determine if the waste in the tank has an average volatile organic concentration of greater than 500 PPM. It does not appear that Cymer conducted this determination.

11.10 Building 6 Loading Dock The inspectors were walking past the Building 6 loading dock and observed the oily releases on the ground (Pictures 84-86). The concrete surface was black and slippery, and the sump was full of oily liquid. Mr. Linn explained that the material was not used oil but a polymer resin used at the facility. However, the material was released to the ground and the sump was full and not cleaned out.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(vi) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(6)], which incorporates Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(12).

The inspectors also observed approximately twenty-five 275-gallon IBC totes stored in this area (Picture 87). Mr. Linn explained that the totes contained material from hazardous waste tank T60 that needed to be distilled. However, the inspectors expressed concern about containers not being marked or labeled with words `hazardous waste' and indication of hazard, the length of time the containers had been stored on site, and when the material would be distilled. Mr. Linn had been in his current position for over a year, and the material had been on site prior to him becoming EHS Manager. The totes have been stored for over a year. This is an area of concern.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(v)(I) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(5)(i)], which is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator must mark or label its containers with the following: the words "Hazardous Waste"; an indication of the hazards of the contents; and the date upon which each period of accumulation begins clearly visible for inspection on each container.
11.11 Tanker Lot Across from Building 6 was the Tanker Lot. The facility began using this area on January 5, 2024, to store 275-gallon IBC totes of hydrochloric acid water from R-604 manufactured and used on site, and 275-gallon IBC totes of Cleanout Solvent Requiring Distillation (Pictures 88-89, 93-94). The TDEC inspectors counted 267 totes of cleanout solvent pending distillation stored in this area. The aisle space was very narrow between the tote rows. The totes were marked Mr. Linn explained that the totes had been in storage before he assumed his current position over a year ago.

Materials accumulated speculatively are solid wastes, even if the recycling involves use, reuse, or return to the original process.
The inspectors also observed an active and visible leak from one of the pending distillation totes (Pictures 90-92, 95). Mr. Linn immediately contacted staff to remove the leaking tote.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(vi) [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(6)], which incorporates Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(12). [40 C.F.R. 262.251], and is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a generator is required to maintain and operate its facility to minimize the possibility of a fire, explosion, or any unplanned sudden or nonsudden release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water which could threaten human health or the environment.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp.

The inspectors questioned the compatibility of storing the hydrochloric acid water and the cleanout solvent in the same area. In addition, the Tanker Lot was not covered; and the totes were exposed to the weather.
Pursuant to Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-12-01-.03(1)(h)1.(i)(VII)III. [40 C.F.R. 262.17(a)(1)(vii)(C)], and is a condition of the LQG Permit Exemption, a container holding a hazardous waste that is incompatible with any waste or other materials accumulated or stored nearby in other containers, piles, open tanks, or surface impoundments must be separated from the other materials or protected from them by means of a dike, berm, wall, or other device.
11.12 Tanker 6119 In the Tanker Lot, Tanker 6119 was being used as a less than 90-day storage for 4,800-gallons of hazardous waste process water that was pumped off from the distillation process (Pictures 9799). The tanker was not labeled, not dated, and the Tanker Lot did not have `No Smoking' signs posted. The tanker and totes were stored on a concrete surface that was not sealed, to prevent gaps and cracks. However, the concrete is sloped to a closed valve that would allow for capture and collection on any releases. This is an area of concern.

The quick reference guide must include the following elements:
(6) The locations of water supply (e.g., fire hydrant and its flow rate); and (7) The identification of on-site notification systems (e.g., a fire alarm that rings off site,
smoke alarms).
The weekly inspection records for 2021-2024 were reviewed. The inspectors observed the following:
the cold trailer was still listed as a CAA; the laboratory clamshell needs to be added to the CAA list; the tote was leaking in the Tanker Lot was not documented; the two 55-gallon containers in the Main CAA that were not dated was not documented; no notes were documented in 2023 and 2024; no notes documenting the poor condition of the secondary containment in the Main
CAA; and no notes documenting the lack of signage around the CAAs.
