Document Description
The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), pursuant to authority granted under California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 4.5, Chapter 20, Section 66270.61, has issued an Emergency Permit to the WOES - Fortuna (EPA ID# CAL930256136) to transfer hazardous waste from a tanker truck into another truck and/or containers.
The hazardous waste is used oil that was determined to have ignitable hazardous characteristics upon arrival and prior to acceptance, at the WOES - Fortuna facility. The hazardous waste arrived in a transport truck that does not meet standards for transport or storage of ignitable hazardous waste. The waste is to be repackaged into an approved truck and/or container. Once the hazardous waste is transferred to an approved Department of Transportation (DOT) approved container, it will be transported offsite to World Oil Recycling (an authorized facility) located in Compton, California, for treatment, storage, and/or disposal.
