which may be causing, or may lead to:

time to correct them before they harm human health or the
environment.
(b)
(1) The owner or operator shall develop and
follow a written schedule for inspecting all monitoring equipment, safety and
emergency equipment, security devices, and operating and structural equipment,
such as dikes and sump pumps, that are important to preventing, detecting, or
responding to environmental or human health hazards.

facility .

identify the types of problems, for example, malfunctions or deterioration,
which are to be looked for during the inspection , for example, inoperative sump
pump, leaking fitting, eroding dike, etc.

the items on the schedule. However, the frequency should be based on the rate
of deterioration of the equipment and the probability of an environmental or
human health incident if the deterioration, malfunction, or operator error goes
undetected between inspections. Areas subject to spills, such as loading and
unloading areas, shall be inspected daily when in use. At a minimum, the
inspection schedule shall include the items and frequencies called for in
