10) Inspection Findings
At the time of the inspection, Triumvirate was storing approximately 163 cubic yards of hazardous waste. The facility is permitted to store up to 224 cubic yards of hazardous and nonhazardous waste. Hazardous waste accepted by the facility is stored in its warehouse for up to a year before being shipped to an off-site treatment or disposal facility. At the time of the inspection, no containers were stored beyond a year. Hazardous and non-hazardous wastes are segregated at the facility according to compatibility groups as outlined in the permit. Storage areas have secondary containment to minimize and prevent possible releases to the environment. At the time of the inspection, there was a crack, or gap in the liner of the secondary containment (Photograph 1 of 1).
Pursuant to the RCRA Permit 26916-009-HO, Part II Subpart B.2 - Container Storage Unit [40 C.F.R. 264.193(e)(1)(iii)], the Permittee shall inspect the integrity of the containment area to insure that it is free of cracks or gaps, and the concrete sealant remains impervious to leaks.
Located on the 10-Day loading dock were approximately 112 waste containers off-loaded from arriving trucks. The waste will be inspected, compared to the manifest(s) and profiles, and moved into the storage area. Staged adjacent to the loading dock was a 30-cubic yard container of non-hazardous solid waste destined for Wheelabrator South Broward, a municipal waste-toenergy facility located in South Florida. Also, adjacent to the loading dock is a two-compartment tank for used oil with a 15,00-gallon capacity, and Jet-A fuel with a 7,000-gallon capacity. The used oil container was labeled.
Inside the warehouse, storage containers are separated by compatibility groups into rows along the north wall, east wall, and south wall. Rows along the north wall are numbered from 101 to 105. Rows along the east wall are numbered from 201 to 210. Rows along the south wall are numbered from 301 to 306. The south, east, and north storage units are permitted to store 144, 240, and 440, 55-gallon drums, or the equivalent drum volume, respectively. At the time of the inspection, all containers were labeled, closed, and dated. Spill control equipment, no smoking signs, fire extinguishers, and eye-wash stations are available throughout the facility.
Inspection of the Consolidation and Waste Stabilization Area found the facility has not performed stabilization of metal bearing waste since 2015. The area is currently being used for repacking hazardous waste into lab packs or loose packs and for storage of non-hazardous wastewater destined for consolidation and off-site shipment to Aqua Clean Environmental, an industrial wastewater treatment facility. Wastes in the area included five totes of non-hazardous hot melt adhesive waste, twenty-five 55-gallon drums and two 5-gallon containers of nonhazardous wastewater, one cubic-yard bag of oily debris, and eight 55-gallon drums of limestone used for spill control.
