E. Exit Interview ® Yes ❑ No
Industrial Inspection Comments:
Mr. Powers knows the Brakebush system well, and was thorough in his questioning of Mr. Chambers. Tour started in the wastewater building,
with an overview of the system and checking in on the DAF and the recent data. Discussion of BOD issues occured as he reviewed the items
of concern. We then moved into production building to observe the chemical storage rooms, and assess separation practices between
floor drains and thewastewater system. We were told that there are isolation valves just outside of the production plant, as well as just before
the influent to the wastewater system, so valves can be shut and lift stations can be stopped to prevent pass through in case of a spill.
Audit SUMMARY AND COMMENTS:
The IWS and ERP were out of date. The latest copies were absent from the files, likely because they were never provided after previous ORC received
Audit Comments: electronic copies from the Division.
Digital copies of latest IWS and ERP were provided on 6/23/21. Ensure these are printed and filed with the rest of your pretreatment program elements.
Requirements:
Recommendations: Ensure all pretreatment program elements files include the latest submission, the cover letter for that submission, and the Division approval letter.
