11) The white goods/scrap metal recycling area was reviewed. Recyclable metals are separated by type and
maintained within separate bays on the concrete pad.
12) All refrigerant containing appliances are maintained separately from other recyclable metals until the
refrigerant is extracted. Upon extraction, the whitegoods are marked with an X and placed into the collection
bays until hauled to the metal recycling facility. All recyclable metals are being maintained on the concrete
collection pad. Refrigerator doors are removed upon receipt of the appliance and stored with non-refrigerant
containing metals.
13) Used antifreeze and used oil are collected and stored under a shelter with secondary containment until
collected by the recycler. The secondary containment system appeared to be functioning properly during this
facility compliance inspection. Used oil filters are placed on an oil drain system and stored in the collection
area until removed from the site by the recycler.
