Inspection Summary:
On February 23, 2021 this facility was inspected for compliance. After waiting in the lobby and attempting to contact facility
management, no staff were made available for the inspection. The permittee has failed to provide documentation necessary
to determine compliance with the permit.
The permittee shall ensure staff are available for the follow-up inspection and all following compliance inspections. If facility
staff able to assist in providing the documentation are too limited, the permittee shall expand the stormwater training
program to include all staff necessary to accommodate both announced and un-announced inspections in the future.
This facility will be re -inspected. If staff are not made available to provide all documentation necessary to determine
compliance with the permit, further action will be taken.
