Sorry, I missed the reply.
I tried to find the CA EPA code but I just about fell asleep looking.
When I applied for the business I had to go through an EPA inspection and pay a fee yearly.
Parts wash tanks must must not contain petroleum based cleaning products. Cleaning must be water based and not be a bath style tank to reduce the possibility of evaporation. Should have secondary containment and an oil filtration for separate disposal.
Service and disposal must be documented.
They made me dump my killer parts wash fluid from Zep...that stuff would take grease and paint off easily. Left your hands nice and clean. Also gave you a good twitch and a decent buzz. 20 gallon barrel cost me $400 to dispose.
found a tid bit....
