Reason: Not a small business Provided CBI warning to facility The following information was obtained verbally from Henry Banach, Mark Chessman, Angie Martin, and Steve Lucero unless otherwise noted. Company Ownership: Calumet Specialty Products Partners LP, 2780 Waterfront Parkway East Dr. Ste 200, Indianapolis, Indiana 46214. Process Description: Calumet Refining, LLC is nationwide company primarily engaged in blending, compounding, and re-refining lubricating oils and greases from purchased mineral, animal, and vegetable materials. The parent company is Calumet Specialty Products L.P. The Burnham Terminal location, which was inspected, is a terminal and blending facility that accepts petroleum products via rail, stores them on site, and receives tanker trucks that accept, load, and transport the product off site. The Terminal takes 2 switches per week, with an average throughput of 80 rail cars monthly, and loads approximately 14 trucks per day, 5 days per week. The facility can do some product blending and has an in-house lab to test and certify. The Burnham facility SIC code is 5171 (Petroleum Bulk Stations and Terminals). Staff Interview(s): Staff Interviews began at approximately 9:30 am with Jason Hewitt representing EPA and the aforementioned other attendees representing Calumet Specialty Products L.P. Bill Jones arrived at approximately 9:30 am. Page 2 of 1 Plant Manager Henry Banach stated that the facility operates as a bulk station and terminal and there is no vehicle maintenance and washing at the facility, vehicles are sent offsite for services. Consultant Angie Martin stated that the facility does not have an EPA Clean Water Act (CWA) permit but does have coverage under the Illinois Registration of Smaller Sources (ROSS) Program and has a Cook County Environmental Control Permit. Additionally, the facility has a local stormwater permit agreement with Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD). The state has never requested that the facility apply for any additional CWA coverage. Henry Banach stated that all stormwater onsite is collected and tested and pretreated for oil and grease prior to discharge to the sewer system, and that the facility is built to hold a 20-year 24 hour storm plus the volume of the largest tank. He also indicated that there were emergency spill kits on site and the facility has an emergency spill standard operating procedure. As per Henry Banach, Angie Martin, and Steve Lucero, there is 1000ft of skirted boom on site and a small John Boat which can be used to place the initial boom. Additionally, there is an emergency contractor (Heritage Environmental) which is on hand if needed, has Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRA) certification, and that all oil spill response equipment including backups are held on site. Henry Banach stated that there have been no major spills in the past and provided spill reports for the previous 3 years. Henry Banach stated that there have been no issues with water level or river flooding into or out of the site. A berm covers both sides of the site and has been around for a long time. The berm periodically gets rebuilt and is maintained frequently. For the stormwater system, there is regular maintenance on the skimmer system (oil water separator) and the system has an alarm. The collection tank for the oil water separator is frequently pumped out and the remaining oil sold back to market. Henry Banach indicated that the lab does generate some hazardous waste. Angie Martin stated that Heritage Environmental disposes of the hazardous waste offsite. Facility Walk-Through Occurred: Yes Data Collected and Observations: The facility walkthrough focused on the site perimeter controls and internal stormwater sewer system. Stormwater on site gravity drains to a series of inlets which are all on an internal sewer. The internal sewer is gravity fed to a pump room and then pumped to an oil water separator, prior to being held, and then discharged to MWRD. MWRD samples at a manhole located directly to the east, off property, of the site (see image 23). The facility also has a surge wall which protects stormwater from going off site where rail cars unload (see image 1). Multiple inlets with standing water were observed, and it was noticeable that these inlets were well maintained but draining water slowly were the gravity elevation was higher (see images 2, 3, 6, 6, 8, 11, 15, 16, 17, 25, 28, 32). No trains were active on site, but trucks were present loading product near inlets (see image 4, 14). General maintenance on site was good as evidence by lack Page 3 of 1 of sheen at most inlets, although sheen was present at the most low lying area (see image 28), and site flow characteristics were acting as designed with no evidence of water leaving the site or pooling in areas without inlets. One area of the site (see image 16) upper elevation east side, may not have had the necessary elevation gradient to ensure stormwater from heavy rainfall would stay on site, but this was not verified. All industrial waste and storage containers not actively being used were enclosed in the Inside storage Building on the North end of the site (see image 13). The pump room appeared in good working order (see images 18, 19, 20), and there was no evidence of issues with the oil/water seperator (see image 21). Focusing on the low-lying areas of the site. It was evident that the height of the berm was sufficient to contain stormwater on the site (see images 24, 27, and 31) and there was no evidence of any petroleum product above the berm in the vegetation (see image 29, 30, 33, 34) or in the Grand Calumet (see image 26, 35). Also in the low lying area, the facility has a dry hydrant (see image 29 and 30) which is a non-pressurized permanent pipe system installed to allow the withdrawal of water from the Grand Calumet River to provide a water source for fire suppression close to potential areas of concern. Additionally, while the facility was inspected following a rain event, there was no evidence of stormwater coming into contact with the site and leaving the site without pretreatment. Photos and/or Videos: were taken during the inspection. See attachment A Field Measurements: were not taken during this inspection. RECORDS REVIEW 1. Spill Notification Forms From 2016 to Present 2. Oil Water Skimmer Water Sample Test Results from 3/16/2016 to 5/12/2021 CLOSING CONFERENCE Provided U.S. EPA point of contact to the facility Facility staff indicated that CBI was collected during the inspection. Facility staff indicated that CBI was not collected during the inspection Requested documents: Facility Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC Plan) [Received 5/28/2021] Compliance Assistance: It is recommended that the site conditions around the inlet identified in image 16 be checked to confirm they are to the correct gradient to keep water gravity flowing away from the property line of the site.
