Technologies, Inc. (ETT). PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this Compliance Evaluation Inspection (CEI) was to evaluate the ETT's management practices for compliance with R315- 15 of the Utah Administrative Code (the Rules), Utah Used Oil Management Act 19-6-701, and ETT's Used Oil Transporter Permit. The inspection included a discussion, document review, and facility walk-through. Page I of5 FACILITY DESCRIPTION AND WASTE MANAGEMENT OPERATIONS ETT is a company specializing in waste management and response. A small portion of their operations involves used oil transport. According to Mr. Ard of ETT, the majority of the used oil they transport originates from decommissioning underground storage tanks and sumps. The used oil is transported to Sump & Trap, which is a permitted used oil transporter and processor. For large loads, ETT contracts with permitted transporters like Emerald Services and Thermo Fluids. They have a website which explains what they do as a company: http://www.ettech-env.com/. ETT only recently became permitted as a used oil transporter on 4 June 2018. This was the first used oil inspection of the facility since becoming permitted. COMPLIANCE STATUS: Since ETT has been permitted less than two weeks and used oil transportation constitutes only a small portion of the company's activities, there was not as much to review as with most permitted facilities. Overall, ETT seems to be in general compliance with the Used Oil Rules with some minor exceptions which were corrected during the inspection. Much of the time was taken up with discussions of the topics like waste oil vs. used oil, on-spec vs. off-spec vs. hazardous waste, and similar topics. The inspection included a review of the transportation tracking documents, insurance documents, training procedures, and equipment.

ETT transported used oil prior to being permitted, but applied for and received a permit once they were alerted to the requirement by another transporter.4.2 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSPORTERS WHO ARE NOT ALSO PROCESSORS... ,/ --ETT appears to be in compliance with this portion of the Rules.4.3 NOTIFICATION ./ -- ETT appears to be in compliance with this portion of the Rules.4.4 USED OIL TRANSPORTATION ,/ --ETT appears to be in compliance with this portion of the Rules.4.5 REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION FOR USED OIL,/ --ETT is a company which only rarely deals with used oil that would require halogen testing for the pulposes of this section. However, all used oil shipments examined for this year had Clor-d-Tect test kit results, despite the fact that ETT was not permitted at the time of the transportation. There were several types of Dexsil test kits present in Mr. Ard's office, all of them well within their expiration date (December 2018). Page 2 of 5 4.7 TRACKING Tracking documents for the entire year (2018) were reviewed during the inspection. ETT only transported used oil eight times during that period, all prior to being permitted. On three occasions, ETT failed to record the EPA ID numbers of the transporter (themselves) and receiving facility. Mr. Ard of ETT filled in the missing EPA numbers during the inspection, thereby bringing the facility back into compliance within minutes of the oversight being noted. We discussed ideas on ensuring that this issue doesn't arise in the future. All other required tracking information appeared to be recorded.4.8 MANAGEMENT OF RESIDUES ,/ --ETT takes all used-oil related residues to Sump & Trap.

PERMIT REVIEW: The following issues were noted during a brief permit review: 1) There have been no used oil trainings since the permit was issued on 4 June 2OI8. However, ETT intends to do hold their training prior to any future used oil transportation. Page 3 of 5 2) The sump truck was not labeled with the words used oil. I gave Mr. Ard three used oil stickers for use until they obtain their own (which they intend to do shortly). FOLLOW-UP ACTIONS (If applicable): None required at this time. Future inspections should review if the above-noted issues have been dealt with appropriately. lnspector Signature:15 June 2018 DateDavid Wheeler ATTACHMENTS: 1. Photos 2.
