EPA RCRA Hazardous Waste Management 264.15: § 264.15 General inspection requirements

The owner or operator must inspect the facility for malfunctions, deterioration, operator errors and discharges that may cause a release of hazardous constituents or a threat to human health, often enough to correct problems before they cause harm. It must develop, keep at the facility and follow a written inspection schedule covering monitoring equipment, safety and emergency equipment, security devices and operating and structural equipment (dikes, sump pumps), identifying the problems to look for, with frequencies based on the rate of deterioration and the probability of an incident; loading and unloading areas must be inspected daily when in use, and the schedule must include the unit-specific items and frequencies of 264.174, 264.193, 264.195, 264.226, 264.254, 264.278, 264.303, 264.347, 264.602, 264.1033, 264.1052, 264.1053, 264.1058 and 264.1083 to 264.1089 where applicable (it is submitted with the Part B application and EPA may modify it). Deterioration or malfunctions found must be remedied on a schedule that prevents a hazard, immediately where a hazard is imminent or has occurred. Inspections must be recorded in a log or summary kept at least three years, with the date and time, inspector's name, observations and the date and nature of repairs or remedial actions.
