Important Notice: PCB Incinerators
At the time this booklet went to press, there were still
no approved PCB incinerators or alternative disposal
methods available for commercial use in the United
States. Until incinerators or alternative disposal
methods are available, it is not advisable to remove
PCB fluids or intact PCB-containing equipment
unless safe storage facilities are available off the
site.
EPA permits disposal of large PCB capacitors in
approved chemical waste landfills until March 1,
1981. EPA requires all PCB capacitors to be
containerized and packed with absorbent material
prior to their disposal in chemical waste landfills.
Several food contamination incidents have been
caused by PCBs in storage. These incidents indicate
that removing PCB equipment or draining fluid from
a PCB transformer and storing the equipment or
fluid may result in an increased risk of contamina-
tion. Therefore, instead of removing this equipment
from service at this time, carefully examine the risk
of leaks or spillage and monitor continued opera-
tions closely. (See suggestions in paragraph C of
checklist.) If there is potential for leaks or spills,
corrective measures must be taken, including
removal of equipment and fluid to a safe storage
area away from the premises. If you have any
questions, consult with your regional EPA or FDA
office or local USDA inspector.
At the present time, we anticipate that the first
incinerator will be available in late 1980. EPA will
publicize information on commercial PCB incinera-
tors as soon as they are approved. In addition, you
may check on the availability of incinerators or
alternative disposal methods by either calling EPA's
Office of Industry Assistance toll-free (800) 424-
9065 or calling your regional EPA or FDA contact or
local USDA inspector. (See list of names and

FOREWORD
UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
WASHINGTON D C 21460
December 1979
OFFICE OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES
The food and feed industries are particularly vulnerable to
contamination from polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB). PCBs are
ubiquitous, persistent industrial chemicals that are known to
cause serious health and environmental effects. The
Environmental Protection Agency has responsibility for regulatory
control of PCBs and other toxic substances under the Toxic
Substances Control Act of 1976. We are working cooperatively
with the Food and Drug Administration, which regulates chemical
substances in food and their use in food and animal feed plants,
and the Department of Agriculture, which has responsibility for
assuring the safety of meat and poultry, to protect our food
supply from PCB contamination.
This booklet has been prepared to:
0 Alert you to the serious potential problems associated
with the use of PCB-containing equipment in the food and
feed industry,
° Provide information that will help you establish a
program for contamination prevention in these
facilities, and
0 Provide information on current PCB government
regulations and a reference of sources of additional
information.
PCB contamination has already caused costly destruction of large
quantities of food and uncountable damage to our environment. We
urge you to alert your managers and employees to the problem of
PCB contamination and to institute a program for preventative
action without delay. This brochure will assist you in your
efforts.

-------
Why the concern?
In recent years, there have been a number of incidents
where food has been contaminated with polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs) and other toxic chemicals. This
contamination has resulted from accidental spills,
improper disposal, and unintentional misuse of
PCB-containing materials and equipment. PCBs are
now known to have extremely hazardous health and
environmental effects, even at low levels of concentra-
tion in the food chain. PCB-containing equipment, such
as electrical transformers, has been extensively used in
food and feed processing facilities. We are especially
concerned that future accidental contamination be
prevented. This booklet has been prepared to help you
identify potential problems and prevent costly future
incidents that could have adverse effects on health and
the environment.
What are PCBs —
why, how, and where
are they used?
PCBs are a class of chemicals called chlorinated hydro-
carbons. PCBs range in consistency from heavy oily
liquids to waxy solids. Their most important properties
are chemical stability, low flammability, high boiling
points, and low electrical conductivity.
Since their development in 1929, PCBs have been used
in a variety of industrial applications. Hundreds of
millions of pounds of PCBs have been used as fluids in
electrical transformers, capacitors, and electromagnets,
and heat transfer and hydraulic systems.
-------
Why are PCBs
hazardous?
PCBs have also been used as plasticizers in paints,
adhesives, and caulking compounds; fillers for invest-
ment casting waxes; and dye carriers in carbonless
copy paper.
Concern over PCBs' toxicity and persistence in the
environment led Congress to prohibit their manufacture,
processing, or distribution in commerce. Although
PCBs have not been manufactured in the United States
since 1977, the chemical has been permitted to remain
in older electrical transformers and other industrial
machinery.
Knowledge of PCB toxicity in humans is based pri-
marily on an incident which occurred in Yusho, Japan
in 1968 when PCBs leaked from a heat exchanger and
contaminated rice oil. Among the many symptoms
observed were chloracne (skin rash), discoloration of
the gums and nailbeds, swelling of joints, waxy secre-
tions of glands in the eye lids, as well as more general
effects such as lethargy and joint pain. There are also
well documented tests on laboratory animals that show
PCBs cause reproductive failures, gastric disorders, skin
lesions, tumors, and other effects of concern.
-------
Why should food and
feed related industries
be especially
concerned about
PCBs?
The Yusho incident illustrates the serious human health
and economic consequences of PCB contamination in
food or feed related industries. Several other incidents
underline the need for special attention to prevent
similar costly contamination in the future. These
include:
• Discovery of PCBs in fishmeal used as a feed
ingredient in North Carolina as a result of a leaking
heat exchanger,
• Contamination of fishmeal in Puerto Rico resulting
from a fire involving stored electrical transformers in
the same warehouse,
• Death and severe illness of feedlot cattle in Kansas
caused by inadvertent use of PCB-contaminated oil
as a carrier for insecticide,
• Contamination of animal feed ingredients with
PCBs leaking from a transformer in storage at a
packing company in Billings, Montana.
These incidents have resulted in the destruction of
large quantities of food, feed, and farm animals, and
major disruption of the companies involved.
-------
PCBs in the
environment
Unlike most organic chemicals which break down fairly
rapidly in the environment, PCBs are extremely stable.
The potential for biomagnification in the food chain is
of special concern. Biomagnification is the process
through which small amounts of toxic substances reach
higher levels of concentration at each stage of the food
chain.
Microorganisms and plants take in traces of PCBs from
the environment. These microorganisms and plants
provide the food for small fish and other animals which
are in turn eaten by higher forms of animal life. At each
step of the sequence, the PCB content increases until
human food supplies may be contaminated above the
levels considered to be safe for consumption.
-------
Where might PCBs be
found in food industry
facilities?
The following types of equipment may contain PCB
fluids or other liquids such as mineral oil that are
contaminated with PCBs:
• Transformers
• Large capacitors (over 3 Ibs. of fluid)
• Electromagnets
• Heat transfer and hydraulic systems
• Small capacitors
• Equipment containing small capacitors including:
electrical switch gear, fractional HP motors, and
ballasted lighting fixtures.
Transformers, large capacitors, electromagnets, and heat
transfer and hydraulic systems are of primary importance
because they contain free flowing liquid. Small capacitors are
of less concern because the PCBs are usually in a nonliquid,
nonmobile state.
ELECTROMAGNETS
Electromagnets contain-
ing PCBs have been
used as separator
magnets over conveyer
belts.
CAPACITORS
Capacitors have been manufactured in a wide
range of sizes for various industrial uses. Capaci-
tors may contain PCB dielectric fluids.
-------
TRANSFORMERS
Many transformers have used PCB liquids to
dissipate the heat generated by transmission.
HEAT TRANSFER SYSTEM
Heat transfer systems containing
PCBs have been used in food
processing equipment.
Existing federal
regulations concerning
PCBs and food
Concern about highly toxic PCBs contaminating human
food has led to a number of regulatory actions by the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture (USDA), and the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). Under FDA regulations foods
and feeds are considered to be contaminated and may
not be sold in interstate commerce if they contain
PCBs in excess of certain prescribed concentrations.
(See Table 1.) The use of PCBs in food and animal
feed processing facilities, except enclosed use in
transformers and capacitors, is prohibited by FDA
regulation (21 CFR 110.40, 500.45).
EPA has issued rules governing the use of PCBs. In
general, PCB mixtures with concentrations less than 50
parts per million (ppm) or 0.005 percent are not regu-
lated. The use of intact, non-leaking transformers,
electromagnets, capacitors, and capacitor-containing
equipment with PCB concentrations greater than 50
ppm is allowed.
-------
The EPA rule permits the continued use of PCBs in
servicing of electromagnets and transformers and in
heat transfer and hydraulic systems until July 1, 1984.
As of November 1, 1979, PCBs may no longer be used
in heat transfer systems in plants manufacturing or
processing food, drugs, and cosmetics.
EPA rules include provisions for marking, disposal,
storage, and recordkeeping, portions of which are
discussed later in this booklet.
The potential for further regulatory action exists. On
May 9, 1 980, EPA, FDA, and USDA proposed to
prohibit the use of PCB transformers, capacitors,
and other electrical equipment in food, feed, and
agricultural chemical related facilities. For copies of
the proposal, contact the Industry Assistance Office.
The following checklist for Action has been
prepared to assist you in conducting a full safety
check of your facility. We urge you to use this
checklist to implement a program for safety and
contamination prevention in all your food and feed
related facilities.
-------
Checklist for Action
What can I do?
A. Determine if you
have PCB
equipment.
B. Consider replacing
PCB-containing
equipment with
non-PCB
equipment.
1. Locate any potential PCB source.
You should inventory your plant for transformers,
capacitors, heat transfer systems, hydraulic systems,
and fluid stored for use in this equipment. After you
have located these items,. ..
2. Examine the equipment for caution labels.
A caution label specifically identifying the equipment as
containing PCBs may be present. If so, skip to Section
B of this checklist. If not,. . .
3. Transformers and large capacitors may bear
nameplates.
If your transformer or capacitor has a manufacturer's
nameplate with a trade name, refer to Table 2 at the
end of this booklet. If the trade name does not appear
there, the equipment may still contain PCBs. Contact
the manufacturer, referencing the serial number to
determine if the equipment contains PCBs. If there is
no nameplate, or if this approach is unsuccessful. . .
4. Seek assistance from a servicing expert.
Call on your local transformer servicing company or the
engineering service department of your utility company.
They can assist you to obtain a sample of your trans-
former fluid for analysis. You may also want to sample
your heat transfer systems, hydraulic systems, or other
suspect oil. (Do not attempt to sample fluids in capaci-
tors.) Then...
5. Have the samples analyzed.
This is the only way to be certain whether or not your
equipment contains PCBs.
If you determine that you have PCB equipment,.. .
EPA, FDA, and USDA have proposed to prohibit the
use of PCBs in electrical equipment in food, feed,
and agricultural chemical related industries.
Although the prohibition on PCB-containing equip-
ment is not yet in effect, we urge voluntary removal
of this equipment and replacement with non-PCB
equipment to prevent the possibility of future food
contamination.
-------
10
C. Take special
precautions for
continued use.
As an alternative in transformers, you may want to
consider replacing the PCB fluid with non-PCB fluid.
You should be aware that the transformers will contain
residual PCB concentrations after replacement and,
therefore, may be subject to future federal regulation.
EPA disposal regulations require incineration of all
PCB liquids with concentrations of 500 ppm (0.05%)
or greater. The first approved incinerators will be
available sometime in late 1980. Until incinerator
methods are available, PCBs removed from service
must be stored for later dispoal.
If it is not possible for you to replace your PCB-contain-
ing equipment, you will want to ...
The risk of PCB contamination can be minimized by
analyzing the risk of spillage associated with each
individual PCB unit and by taking steps to contain the
potential uncontrolled loss of PCBs from the unit. You
should consider the following questions:
1. Is there any evidence of an active leak from the
PCB unit? If so, take whatever steps are necessary to
protect your product or usable byproduct. Of course,
leaking equipment should be repaired immediately. If
your product is being contaminated, contact the appro-
priate agency to determine the best way to destroy it.
2. Is the PCB unit located in an area where there is a
way that leaking fluid from the unit could find its way
into your process? If so, these units should be given
priority in the development of spill prevention meas-
ures. Special consideration should be given to potential
leaks resulting from accidents as discussed in the
following.
3. Is any liquid ever pumped from the vicinity of the
PCB unit to the process area? If so, can the PCB unit
be isolated from the pump?
4. If the PCB unit is pad mounted, are there curbs or
pans to serve as a barricade against loss of fluid?
5. If the PCB unit is located in an area surrounded by
porous cinderblock walls, have they been sealed with
material which will not dissolve in solvents such as
PCB and trichlorobenzene? Is the wall/floor interface
tight?
-------
11
D. Be familiar with
mandatory labeling
and storage
requirements.
6. Is the floor in the vicinity of a PCB unit free from
cracks? Cracks that look like they would not prevent
the loss of fluid should be grouted and painted with
solvent resistant materials, or government approved
materials if required.
7. Is the PCB unit in a location where vehicular traffic
might be a hazard? If so, a vehicle barrier might be
useful.
8. Is the PCB unit located near machinery which might
throw projectiles with sufficient energy to damage the
unit? If so, a shield, such as a fence, may provide the
necessary protection.
9. Is the PCB unit mounted on a surface which might
be difficult to seal, such as unwelded steel plates or in
a mobile machine? If so, a catchbasin might be installed
under the unit.
10. Are there floor drains in the vicinity of a PCB unit?
If so, can they be sealed or otherwise isolated from the
unit?
11. If you have PCB equipment or drums of PCB fluid
in storage for future use, can they be removed from
the process area? Are they marked or labeled to warn
of PCB presence? If you have PCB equipment, you
may be subject to mandatory labeling and storage
requirements.
1. Labeling requirements.

You must label the following items: transformers
containing liquids with more than 500 ppm of RGBs,
PCB capacitors with 3 (three) or more pounds of fluid
operating at 2,000 volts or more, containers such as
bags, barrels, or drums used to hold PCBs, electric
motors using coolant with 50 ppm or more of PCBs,
hydraulic systems or heat transfer systems containing
50 ppm or more of PCBs, and the storage areas
described in the following.
In addition, labels must be placed on the following
items when they are removed from service: PCB
capacitors containing more than 3 pounds of fluid
operating at less than 2,000 volts and equipment
containing a PCB transformer or large high voltage
capacitor.
2. Storage requirements.
PCBs and PCB items which you remove from service
for disposal must be stored in a location meeting EPA
criteria to insure that they are properly contained. This
location should not be near your process area. It should
be isolated so that it is not vulnerable to damage and
puncture from vehicular, forklift, and other moving
equipment. For assistance with the storage design
criteria, contact the EPA regional office for your state.
A list of EPA regional offices appears at the back of
this booklet. (See Appendix B.)
