§ 17897.20. Inspection Requirements.
The owner or operator of a solid waste facility that disposes of asbestos containing waste shall inspect the facility. This inspection shall include but not be limited to the designated asbestos waste containing area for deterioration, operator errors, problems with cover, leakage and discharges that may be causing or may lead to: (1) releases to the environment; or (2) a threat to human health. The owner or operator shall maintain an inspection schedule that identifies the items to be inspected, the frequency of the inspection and identify the types of problems that are to be looked for during the inspection. The owner or operator shall conduct these inspections often enough to identify problems in time to correct them before they harm human health or the environment but at a minimum of once each operating day. The owner or operator must remedy any deterioration or malfunction of equipment or structures which the inspection reveals on a schedule which ensures that the problem does not lead to an environmental or human health hazard. Remedial action must be taken immediately where a hazard is imminent or has already occurred. The owner or operator shall maintain a record of these inspections. Notwithstanding section 17897.19(b)(2)(B), the reports resulting from these inspections need only be kept for three years from the date of the inspection.
