INTRODUCTION
The EPA National Enforcement Investigations Center (NEIC), at the
request of EPA Region III, conducted a multi-media compliance
investigation of the Atlantic Research Corporation (ARC) Pine Ridge Plant
to determine facility compliance with selected Federal and Commonwealth
of Virginia environmental regulations, permits, consent agreements, and
orders.
The ARC Pine Ridge Plant is in Prince William County at 5945
Wellington Road, Gainesville Virginia [Figure 1]. ARC, a subsidiary of the
Sequa Corporation, researches, develops, tests, and produces solid
propellent rocket motors and gas generators. Some products manufactured
at this plant include the rocket motor for the Stinger anti-aircraft missile
and launch motors for cruise missiles. The 422-acre plant has approxi-
mately 135 buildings and 60 associated structures. About 1,200 people are
employed at the facility, working three shifts, 5 days per week.
OBJECTIVES
The specific objectives of the investigation were to determine
compliance rrith the:
• Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)/Virginia
Hazardous Waste Management Regulations and associated
consent orders/agreements, approvals, etc.
• Clean Air Act (CAA)/Virginia Air Pollution Control Regula-
tions and State issued permits
• Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)
• Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act
(EPCRA)
-------
FIGURE 1
ARC PINE RIDGE PLANT LOCATION MAP
-------
BACKGROUND
The Pine Ridge plant originally owned by the Sesquahana
Corporation, began operation in about 1952. ARC purchased the propellent
development, testing, and production business from Sesquahana
Corporation in 1976; the land was sold to the Gainesville Associates. ARC
currently leases the land from the Gainseville Associates.
ARC routinely generates hazardous wastes regulated under RCRA
including: (1) propellents and propellent components,* (2) energetic
contaminated materials, (3) spent solvents, (4) spent solvent contaminated
materials, and (5) small quantities of various laboratory chemicals.
Periodically, other hazardous wastes, such as boiler descaler and
contaminated soil, are generated.
Energetic wastes and energetic contaminated waste materials are
stored for less than 90 days in numerous areas prior to thermal treatment
in three on-site open-burning pits and one burn pad. ARC reports that non-
energetic waste (spent solvents, laboratory chemicals) are accumulated in
satellite storage areas and/or in a 90-day storage area prior to off-site
recycle, treatment, or disposal.
ARC is a full quantity generator and currently has interim status
(EPA ID No. VAD023741705) pursuant to RCRA for open burning of
hazardous waste. The Virginia Department of Waste Management
(VDWM) was delegated RCRA authority and promulgated Virginia
Hazardous Waste Management Regulations (VHWR) to control hazardous
waste handling.
The facility notified the Virginia Water Control Board (VWCB) on
May 6, 1986, that the facility had underground storage tanks (UST) subject
to UST regulations.
Propellents and propellent components (which include various explosives) are
referred to in the propellent manufacturing industry as "energetic" material. As
waste, this material is RCRA reactive hazardous waste (EPA waste number D003)
and is called energetic waste or hot trash.
-------
ARC generates volatile organic compound (VOC) air emissions
during spray painting, cleaning, and degreasing operations. Additionally,
ARC conducts research, including rocket motor testing, on beryllium-based
propellents. Therefore, ARC is subject to Virginia Air Pollution Control
Regulations (the Virginia Air Control Board has been delegated authority to
manage the CAA program).
The facility reportedly does not have any polychlorinated biphenyl
(PCB) transformers or capacitors. However, the facility operates heat
transfer equipment which historically contained PCBs regulated under
TSCA. Leakage from this equipment contaminated soils outside various
plant buildings. Contaminated soils were excavated and disposed of off-
site.
ARC uses hazardous chemicals and extremely hazardous
substances, regulated under EPCRA, during research, development and
production of propellents. ARC has notified State and local authorities
regarding this use and has reported environmental release of: aluminum
dust, methyl ethyl ketone, and 1,1,1 trichloroethane.
-------
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND RECOVERY ACT
The NEIC investigation of ARC hazardous waste management
procedures identified the following violations:
Generator Standards
Section 5.04.02(b)* A unique five-digit number was not assigned to
40 CFR 262.20(a)** each hazardous waste shipping manifest. Two
manifests reviewed contained the same manifest
document number.
Section 6.05.05(a)(l) Hazardous waste was accumulated at an on-site
40 CFR 262.34(aXD 90-day storage area without placing the waste in a
container or tank. Two building air filters,
contaminated with energetic waste (D003***),
were in a storage area without being in bags or
drums.
Section 6.02
40 CFR 262.11
Section 6.02.02
40 CFR 262.11(b)
Residue generated from on-site open burning of
energetic waste was not evaluated to determine if
it is a hazardous waste.
ARC did not determine if a waste generated on-
site was listed as hazardous. Waste spent solvent
mixtures were improperly identified as a
characteristic hazardous waste (D001) rather than
listed hazardous wastes F001 and F005. Also,
rags contaminated with spent 1,1,1-
trichloroethane and methyl ethyl ketone were
improperly identified as characteristic rather
than listed (F001 and F005) hazardous waste,
respectively.

-------
5. Section 6.05.057 Hazardous waste was accumulated on-site for
Section 11 more than 90 days without a permit or interim
40 CFR 262.34(a)/ status. A drum of lead contaminated solids (D008)
40 CFR Part 270 had been stored for 136 days prior to the NEIC on-
site inspection.
6. Section 6.05.05(a)(3) Hazardous waste was accumulated on-site in less-
40 CFR 262.34(aX3) than-90-day storage areas without clearly mark-
ing each container with the words "Hazardous
Waste." Some drums and bags of energetic waste
and two energetic-waste-contaminated air filters
did not have "Hazardous Waste" labels. An addi-
tional drum, containing small quantities of non-
energetic hazardous waste, was improperly
labeled as "non-regulated."
7. Section 6.4.E.l.e* The VDWM Executive Director was not notified of
the exact location for each 90-day hazardous waste
accumulation area. The April 7, 1987 ARC
notification to VDHM did not include five hot trash
areas in use during the NEIC inspection.
8. Section 6.05.05(aX2) Hazardous waste was accumulated on-site in less-
40 CFR 262.34(aX2) than-90-day storage areas without each container
being clearly marked with the date upon which
each period of waste accumulation began.
General Facility Standards
1. Section 9.02.06(d) Inspection records for the thermal treatment area
40 CFR265.15(d) and safety and emergency equipment did not
include the name of the inspector, time of
inspection, and date and nature of any required
remedial actions.
2. Section 9.02.06(bXl) The written schedule for inspecting all facility
40 CFR265.15(bXl) monitoring, safety and emergency equipment,
and security devices does not include an
inspection schedule for the emergency warning
siren and phone and two-way radio system.

Contingency Plan and Emergency Procedures
Section 9.04.02(c)
40 CFR 265.52(c)
Section 9.04.02(d)
40 CFR 265.52(d)
Section 9.04.02(e)
40 CFR 265.52(e)
Section 9.04.02(f)
40 CFR 265.52(f)
The contingency plan does not describe
arrangements agreed to by the local police and fire
departments, hospitals, contractors, and state and
local emergency response teams for coordinating
emergency services.
The plan does not list names, addresses, and
phone numbers of all persons qualified to act as
emergency coordinator. The plan does not identify
at least one employee responsible for emergency
response coordination.
The plan does not include the location,
description, and capabilities of some facility
emergency equipment. Facility equipment not in
the firehouse or on a fire truck, such as the
emergency siren, and phone and two-way radio
systems are not included.
The plan does not include a complete evacuation
plan for facility personnel for conditions that may
require evacuation.
Operating Record
Section 9.05.02(bXD
40 CFR 265.73(bXD
The facility operating record for the on-site
thermal treatment area does not identify date:1 of
hazardous waste treatment and some quantities of
wastes treated.
Use and Management of Containers
Section 9.09.02 Hazardous waste was not transferred from
40 CFR 262.34(aXl) containers that were not in good condition;
hazardous waste was stored in dented and bent
drums and drums with rust holes.
Section 9.09.04(a)
40 CFR 262.34(aXl)
Containers of hazardous waste were not always
kept closed during storage except when necessary
to add or remove waste. The tops of some drums
were open due to the location of grounding clips.
Other drums had bent lids preventing complete
closure. The lid on a drum of solvent contami-
nated rags was held open by an over accumulation
of rags.

3. Section 9.09.05 The less-than-90-day hazardous waste storage
40CFR262.34(aXD areas were not inspected during the week of
May 14,1989.
Permit Application
1. Section 11.02.02 The ARC Part A permit applications were not
signed by both the facility operator (ARC) and the
property owner. ARC leases the Pine Ridge plant
property from the Gainesville Associates. Neither
the original nor the updated permit application
was signed by a representative of the property
owner.
2. Section 11.04(n) The original ARC Part A permit application
40 CFR 270.13(j) (December 20, 1983) did not include a specification
and estimated quantity of some hazardous wastes
treated at the facility.
Land Disposal Restrictions
1. 40 CFR 268.7(a) ARC did not properly determine, through waste
analysis or knowledge of the waste, that waste
generated on-site was restricted from land
disposal. Waste spent solvent mixtures were
improperly identified as D001 rather than F001
and F005. Additionally, rags contaminated with
spent methyl ethyl ketone and 1,1,1-
trichloroethane were improperly identified as
D001 rather than F005 or F001 waste, respectively.
2. 40 CFR 268.7(aX6) A copy of the land disposal restriction certification
or notification for manifest No. CWM 289234 for
the shipment of hazardous waste (including F003
spent solvents) was not retained on-site.
Underground Storage Tanks
1. VR680-13-02 The May 6, 1986 ARC notification to the VWCB did
Section 2.3* not include three on-site regulated USTs.
40 CFR 280.22(a)
2. VR680-13-02 ARC did not prevent release from spilling or
Section 3.1 overfilling of a regulated UST.
40 CFR 280.30(a)

-------
CLEAN AIR ACT
ARC operates two spray paint booths for rocket motor and gas
generator surface coating and two vapor degreasers for small parts
cleaning. ARC also spot degreases using organic solvents. According to
the Virginia Emissions Inventory System for point sources, ARC emitted
6 tons of volatile organic carbon in 1988 (the most recent update). Therefore,
the facility is exempt from Virginia Air Pollution Control Regulations, Rule
4-34 (emission standard for miscellaneous metal parts and products
coating application systems). However, ARC is subject to other Virginia
Air Pollution Control Regulations. The NEIC investigation of the air
emissions control program identified the following violations:
1. Permit Part II.8* Training records for beryllium air pollution
control equipment operators did not include a
certification of training (including a statement of
the time, place, and nature of completed training).
2. Part Il.Section The Air Quality Control Board registration
120-20-31** (April 25, 1984) does not include some VOC air
emission sources (spray booth, spot degreasing)
and has not been updated to show system
modifications (change of solvent in degreasers).
TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT (Polvchlorinated Biphenvl
Handling)
Based on information provided by ARC during the NEIC inspection,
ARC no longer has any TSCA-regulated PCB equipment. ARC documents
indicate that soil contaminated from PCB heat transfer fluid has been
excavated and disposed of off-site. The last shipment of PCB contaminated
material was on August 8, 1988. The ARC 1989 annual document shows
that no PCB material was handled.
Heat exchange equipment, previously PCB-contaminated, remains
in use in building 105. ARC analytical data for heat transfer fluid currently

Heat exchange equipment, previously PCB-contaminated, remains
in use in building 105. ARC analytical data for heat transfer fluid currently
used in this equipment shows PCB concentrations less than 50 parts per
million.
EMERGENCY PLANNING AND COMMUNITY RIGHT-TQ-KNOW ACT
The NEIC investigation of ARC EPCRA reporting requirements
identified the following problem:
40 CFR 370.21(b) The materials on the list of hazardous chemicals/
extremely hazardous substances submitted by
ARC to the Virginia Emergency Council and the
local fire and rescue departments were not
grouped by hazard class.

INVESTIGATION METHODS
The NEIC investigation of ARC consisted of:
• Compilation and review of background information from State
and Federal files
• Discussions with State and Federal regulatory personnel
regarding facility activities
• An on-site inspection
Collection and review of background information and discussions
with EPA Region III personnel began in February 1990. Virginia State
personnel were subsequently contacted regarding the investigation and
facility conditions/records were discussed.
The on-site inspection was conducted April 16 through 20, 1990 and
involved:
• Discussions with facility personnel, predominantly the
Environmental Coordinator, regarding plant operations and
waste management
• Review and copying of facility documents including operating
plans and records
• Visual inspection of plant facilities, including process areas,
waste storage areas, thermal treatment area, beryllium air
emission control equipment, and underground storage tank
areas
NEIC document control procedures were followed during the
investigation. Uniquely numbered TSCA inspection forms were discussed
with the ARC Environmental Coordinator and completed prior to the on-
site TSCA inspection [Appendix AJ. Documents obtained from the company
-------

during the on-site inspection were uniquely numbered and listed in a
document log. A copy of the document log was provided to ARC personnel
after completion of the on-site inspection. Photographs were taken of
selected inspection items.

FACILITY DESCRIPTION
PROCESS DESCRIPTION
ARC researches, develops, produces, and tests solid propellent rocket
motors and gas generators at the Pine Ridge plant. Solid propellent motors
are the propulsion mechanism for rockets and normally consist of solid
propellent inside an exterior case with an exhaust nozzle and propellent
initiator. Gas generators are basically canisters of solid propellent which
produce pressurized gas that can be piped/valved to more than one exhaust
nozzle. Rocket motors are used to propel a payload, such as a warhead; gas
generators have uses including maneuvering rockets on spacecraft. Rocket
propellent motors and gas generators are produced in batch quantities
dictated by contract commitments.
Propellent motor and gas generator manufacturing generally
involves: (1) propellent component preparation (sizing and weighing);
(2) component mixing; (3) grain* casting; (4) grain curing (using heat and
time); (5) grain finishing (machining); and (6) motor assembly (putting
grain in casing, assembling various motor components, painting motor
casing, and motor packaging). When complete, solid propellent rocket
motors are shipped off-site for final rocket assembly (warhead and
guidance system application).
A "typical" propellent consists mainly of an oxidizer (usually
ammonium perchlorate) and an organic polymer binder (such as carboxy
terminated polybutadiene or polyvinyl chloride). Cyclotetramethylene
tetranitramine (HMX) may also be used as a deflagration agent. Burning
rate catalysts (such as iron oxide), curing agents (epoxies, maleic
anhydride, triphenyl bismuth) and catalyzers (such as chromium octoate)
are added in relatively small quantities as necessary. Aluminum powder
is often used to enhance heat generation.
A grain is a mass of solid propellent formed from a number of smaller pieces
-------
14
Rocket motor and gas generator components, such as propellent
ingredients (ammonium perchlorate, HMX, etc.) and motor casings are
supplied by off-site sources.
Rocket motor and gas generator research, development, production
and production support at ARC occurs in approximately 135 buildings and
60 associated structures [Figure 2] generally divided into the following
areas:
• Storage magazines - raw material and finished product
storage
• Technology - research and development
• Propellent mixing - propellent preparation, mixing, and
curing
• Grain finishing - propellent machining, wrapping, etc.
• Motor assembly - final motor assembly/painting/packaging
• Thermal treatment - open burning of waste energetics and
energetic contaminated material
• Administrative - facility operations support
• Material storage - miscellaneous storage
• Propulsion testing - motor/generator testing
• Engineering - facility engineering support
WASTE GENERATION
Hazardous waste (as defined in 40 CFR Part 260/Virginia HWMR
Part 1) generation and air emission sources controlled by Federal or State
regulations addressed during this NEIC investigation are generally
associated with the above areas except for material storage, propulsion
testing (beryllium rocket motor testing is conducted for research and
development and is associated with the technology area) and engineering
offices. Most hazardous waste generated at ARC are energetic and
energetic contaminated waste (propellent/propellent components) and

various halogenated and nonhalogenated cleaning solvents. More
specifically, waste streams generated at ARC include:
• Energetic solids (propellent or propellent component scraps,
off-specification energetics and energetic contaminated solids
such as rags from equipment cleaning, and contaminated
building air filters - D003)
• Energetic liquids [spent solvents that contain energetics from
cleaning operations - D001, D003, F002 (methylene chloride,
1,1,1-trichloroethane), F005 (methyl ethyl ketone)]
• Spent solvent contaminated solids [mostly rags from
degreasing/cleaning - F001 (methylene chloride, 1,1,1-
trichloroethane), F005 (toluene, methyl ethyl ketone), D001)]
• Bulk spent solvent liquid [from degreasing/cleaning - F001
(methylene chloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane), F005 (toluene,
methyl ethyl ketone), U123 (formic acid), D001]
• Small quantities (usually less than 1 gallon) of miscellaneous
materials that have exceeded shelf-life requirements or are
otherwise unusable (maleic anhydride - U147, sodium
dichromate and copper chromate - D007)
• Paint waste (D001)
• Corrosive liquid (boiler descaling - D002)
• Air emissions potentially contaminated with beryllium
(processing and rocket motor testing of beryllium based
propellents)
• Participates (aluminum dust from component grinding and
mixing)
• Volatile organic compound air emissions (ultrasonic
degreasing, soaking, spot degreasing/cleaning, and spray
painting)
• Sulfur dioxide air emissions (fuel oil burning)
-------
17
WASTE MANAGEMENT/CONTROL
Solid Waste
ARC generally segregates solid waste (as defined in 40 CFR
261.2/HWMR Part 1) into three major handling categories: (a) energetic
waste,* (b) nonenergetic hazardous waste, and (c) nonhazardous waste.
Process knowledge and information from product certifications supplied by
product manufacturers are used to identify and segregate the various
wastes. A description of ARC waste management procedures for the three
general solid waste types follows.
a. Energetic Waste
Propellents, propellent components, or material contaminated
with these materials are referred to as energetic waste or "hot
trash." Hot trash is normally contained in red (30-gallon) steel
drums or in the original product container (for outdated/off-
specification material). This waste is stored in less than
90-day accumulation areas near the point of generation. ARC,
in an April 7, 1989 letter to the Virginia Department of Waste
Management (VDWM), stated that the facility hod a total of 28
less-than-90-day hot trash accumulation areas [Appendix C].
The number of hot trash accumulation areas in use at any
time fluctuates as a function of the particular type of work in
progress.
Hot trash is periodically removed from storage and placed in
the thermal treatment area for open burning. The thermal
treatment area consists of three unlined, bermed excavations
(burn pits) and an unbermed "burn pad" located between pits 1
and 2 [Appendix B-l and 2]. Waste energetics are segregated
by waste type and spread out in one of the three burn pits or the
burn pad:
All energetic waste is hazardous waste.
-------
18
Pit 1 is used for "1.1 type material," energetics more
likely to detonate than burn.
Pit 2 is used for "1.3 type material," material more likely
to burn than detonate.
Pit 3 is for energetic material from research and
development activities.
The burn pad, referred to as the D-5 burn area, is used to
burn energetic material, such as D-5 rocket motors,
which may go ballistic. The motors are partially buried,
nose down, prior to ignition.
All energetic material is ignited remotely. Ash and partially
burned material (rags, gloves, etc.) are sometimes ejected from
the pits due to thermal convection during burning. The pits
are inspected for thermal (infrared) activity no sooner than 24
hours after each burn and before anyone is allowed to enter
them.
b. Nonenergetic Hazardous Waste
This waste, mostly spent solvents, spent solvent contaminated
solids, and small quantities of unusable laboratory material, is
normally stored in silver drums in satellite accumulation
areas near the point of waste generation. Periodically (i.e.,
when a drum of waste is full) this hazardous waste is moved to
the facility less-than-90-day "chemical waste" accumulation
area (near building 107). Periodically, other hazardous waste,
such as boiler descaler waste (D002) and contaminated soil is
generated. This waste is stored in the less-than-90-day
chemical waste accumulation area.
ARC, in a March 1, 1988, letter to the VDWM, stated that the
facility has a total of 41 hazardous waste accumulation/
satellite storage areas [this includes both hot trash and solvent
waste satellite storage areas (Appendix C)].
-------
19
Spent bulk solvent is sent off-site for either recycling or for use
as supplemental fuel. Solvent-contaminated solid material
and small quantities of miscellaneous hazardous waste from
the technology area is currently incinerated off-site. Other
miscellaneous waste is also disposed of off-site.
c. Nonhazardous Waste
Nonhazardous solid waste, normally referred to as "cold
trash" is stored in blue drums or dumpsters and is disposed of
at the Prince William County Sanitary Landfill.
Air Emissions
VOC air emissions from two freon ultrasonic degreasers are
controlled by cold coils when in use and closed tops when not in operation.
VOC air emissions from soaking of motor parts and casting tooling are
controlled by keeping the soaking containers closed. Air emissions from
spot cleaning or degreasing and spray painting are not controlled.
Air emissions from the beryllium laboratory (used for producing
sample quantities of beryllium based propellents) and test tank (used for
propellent test firing) are treated in separate treatment systems. Each
system consists of a venturi scrubber, demister, and HEPA filter. Air
emissions are sampled for beryllium content.
Particulate emissions from several plant operations, including
propellent sizing, mixing, and machining are controlled with building air
filters. Contaminated filters are handled according to the type of
contamination (as previously described).

FINDINGS
RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND RECOVERY ACT (RCRA)
Regulatory Status
ARC generates hazardous waste regulated by RCRA and currently
has interim status (EPA ID No. VAD023741705) pursuant to RCRA for
thermal treatment (open burning) of hazardous waste.
ARC notified EPA as a hazardous waste generator in August 1980.
However, ARC did not submit a RCRA Part A permit application until
January 19, 1984, reportedly because they believed that they were an exempt
small quantity generator. A June 1984 Consent Agreement and Consent
Order with EPA addressed this late filing of the Part A permit application
[Appendix D].
This agreement and order also waived 40 CFR 265.382 requirements
for open burning at ARC provided ARC conformed to Army Regulation
AR385-64. This Army regulation, superseded by DOD 4145.26-M,
establishes protocol for open burning of waste explosives/propellents. The
waiver essentially allows ARC to use the historic on-site thermal treatment
area even though this area does not meet the location requirements of 40
CFR 265.382 (which require a minimum of 670 feet between any open burn
area and the property of others; the ARC burn area is less than 500 feet
from the property line).
In November 1988, ARC submitted a RCRA Part B permit application
for thermal treatment of hazardous waste. The application, revised in
June 1989, was in review by EPA and VDWM during the NEIC
investigation.
A 3008(h) Administrative Order on Consent between ARC and EPA
became effective in May 1989. The order required ARC to investigate
hazardous constituent releases to the environment (RCRA facility
investigation) and undertake specified interim measures to mitigate off-site
-------
21
contaminant migration [Appendix E]. A draft RCRA facility investigation
(RFI) report was submitted to EPA in February 1990. According to ARC
personnel, the final RFI was about 90% complete during the NEIC
inspection. Three of the five interim measures required by the order had
not been completed at the time of the NEIC inspection. These were:
1. Reduction of all VOCs in surface streams leaving ARC
property to maximum contaminant levels (MCLs)
2. Improvement of on-site satellite chemical storage facilities
3. Disposal or treatment of contaminated soils that are a factor in
possible off-site migration of organic hazardous waste
constituents
ARC's initial attempt to reduce VOC levels in plant surface streams
by riprapping channel segments was only partially successful.
Perchloroethylene levels in the stream remain above the MCL. ARC is
studying the use of an air stripper to further reduce VOC levels.
ARC has purchased two types of steel vaults to improve on-site
satellite accumulation areas. Several of these vaults remain to be installed
but ARC expects to have all vaults in use by the end of June 1990.
Some contaminated soil that may be contributing to off-site migration
of organic hazardous waste constituents have not been treated or disposed
of. Soil in the building 40 area, a source of surface water VOC contamina-
tion, has not been treated or disposed of. ARC personnel stated that the
building 40 soil contamination problem will be addressed based on the
outcome of discussions with the Commonwealth regarding material
handling.
Soil contaminated with chlorobenzene from the building 201 area was
being treated on-site by bioaugmented soil venting as an interim measure
required by the 1989 Order on Consent. According to ARC analytical data,
-------
22
the soil also contains up to 199 parts per million chromium [Appendix F].
Region III approved the on-site treatment process.
ARC operates satellite accumulation areas for nonenergetic
hazardous waste, mostly spent solvent and spent solvent contaminated
waste. ARC personnel claim safety considerations require that satellite
accumulation areas be located outside the buildings where the waste is
generated. On November 30, 1987, ARC requested clarification from EPA of
the satellite accumulation area rule. In an undated letter, Marcia E.
Williams, EPA Director, Office of Solid Waste, Washington, DC, answered
that "The storage areas you describe appear to be satellite accumulation
areas" [Appendix C].
The only controls that operators of ARC hazardous waste generation
activities have over most* of these satellite accumulation areas are facility
standard operating procedures (SOPs) that address how the areas are to be
used. According to ARC personnel, some of the satellite accumulation
areas, such as the area referred to as building 255, contain waste generated
at several different buildings by several different operators. Most satellite
accumulation areas are out-of-sight of the process operators. Buildings
near the hazardous waste accumulation areas are not always occupied and
operators are not always near the accumulation areas. Additionally,
personnel not associated with hazardous waste generation have physical
access to most of these areas.
ARC was operating four underground storage tanks during the
NEIC on-site inspection:
• One 6,000-gallon unleaded gasoline tank installed in 1985
• One 2,000-gallon leaded gasoline tank installed in 1978
• One 1,000-gallon waste oil tank installed in 1982
• One 1,000-gallon kerosene tank installed in 1982
A few areas, such as storage areas associated with buildings 200 and 253, are locked
and totally controlled.
-------
23
ARC notified the VWCB on May 6, 1986 that the Pine Ridge facility had two
underground storage tanks subject to UST regulations. ARC removed one
1,000-gallon underground gasoline storage tank (installed prior to 1965) in
January 1990. The facility is investigating soil contamination attributed to
leakage of this tank.
Compliance Status
Generator Standards
1. ARC did not assign a unique five-digit number to each hazardous
waste shipping manifest. Manifests describing shipments of hazardous
waste from ARC to Safety Kleen Envirosystems, New Castle, Kentucky on
November 20, 1987, and January 7, 1988, both had the same "State Manifest
Document Number," 01001 [Appendix G].
2. ARC accumulated hazardous waste at an on-site 90-day storage area
without placing the waste in a container or tank. Two building air filters
were at the building 116 hot trash storage area without being in bags or
drums. The filters were placed directly on the covered concrete pad. This
locked, energetic hazardous waste storage area services building 116, a
building that mixes propellent [Appendix B-3].
3. ARC did not determine if waste generated on-site is a hazardous
waste. Residue generated in the three on-site thermal treatment pits from
open burning of reactive hazardous waste (energetic waste) has not been
analyzed or knowledge not used to determine if it is hazardous waste.
Heavy metal compounds present in the energetic material treated, such as
chromium octoate, may concentrate in the residue making the material EP
toxic. Also, listed hazardous waste may be generated during waste
oxidation.
ARC personnel stated that the residue has never been removed from
the pits. Rather, the material is periodically pushed into a pile at the north
end of each pit [Appendix B-4 and 5]. Some partially burned waste (rubber
-------
24
gloves, rags) is ejected from the pits during burning and was present
around the thermal treatment area [Appendix B-6].
4. ARC did not determine if a waste generated on-site is listed as
hazardous. ARC combines several spent solvent waste streams in 55-
gallon drums. While specific constituents and/or concentrations of each
constituent will vary between 55-gallon drums (each mixture is dependent
on the particular batch operation in progress when each drum is filled), the
mixtures contain solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone, methylene chloride,
tetrahydrofuran, toluene, perchloroethylene, and ethyl alcohol
[Appendix G].
According to ARC material safety data sheets, the solvents, before
use, compose 99 to 100% of the solution [Appendix G]. Spent solvent
mixtures containing methyl ethyl ketone and/or toluene are listed
hazardous wastes, F005 and mixtures containing methylene chloride are
F001 listed hazardous waste. However, ARC manifested this waste as
characteristic ("RQ Flammable Liquid N.O.S.," "D001") rather than listed,
F005 and F001 waste [Appendix H],
Additionally, rags contaminated with spent methyl ethyl ketone
(F005), 1,1,1-trichloroethane (FOOD, and methylene chloride (FOOD, listed
hazardous wastes, were improperly manifested as characteristic waste
("Waste Flammable Solid NOS," "D001" [Appendix H].
5. ARC accumulated hazardous waste on-site for more than 90 days
without interim status or a RCRA permit for container storage. On
April 18, 1990, a drum containing lead-contaminated solids (D008) at
storage area 107 had a beginning accumulation date of December 1, 1989,
indicating it had been stored for 136 days [Appendix B-7]. This area is used
to store nonenergetic hazardous waste prior to off-site removal.
6. ARC accumulated hazardous waste on-site in 90-day storage areas
without clearly marking each container with the words "Hazardous
Waste." This included:
-------
25
• Five drums at hot trash storage area 105 [Appendix B-8]
• Four plastic bags in the locked, fenced, hot trash storage area
85 [Appendix B-9]
• Two HMX fiber drums at hot trash storage area 116
[Appendix B-3]
• Two building air filters at the hot trash storage area 116
[Appendix B-3]
• One drum in storage area 107 (this drum was actually marked
as "non-regulated" but was found to contain numerous
1-gallon and smaller containers of waste including one
container each of mercuric cyanide and silver permanganate)
• A 5-gallon pail containing a 1-quart jar of urea nitrate and two
1-quart cans of sodium naphthalene (reactive hazardous waste
according to ARC personnel) located on the burn pad between
thermal treatment pits 1 and 2 (observed on both April 17 and
19,1990)
7. ARC did not notify the VDWM Executive Director of the exact location
of each 90-day hazardous waste accumulation area. ARC notified VDHM of
the location of 28 "hot trash" accumulation areas in an April 7, 1989 letter
[Appendix C]. However, the list of hot trash storage areas (90-day
accumulation areas for D003 waste) presented in the letter was incomplete.
The list did not include accumulation areas at buildings 46, 222, 223, and
235 and at the burn pad between burn pits 1 and 2 (a 1-quart jar of urea
nitrate and two 1-quart cans of sodium naphthalene were in a 5-gallon
plastic container located on the burn pad on both April 17, 1990, and
April 19, 1990; ARC personnel said the waste was stored awaiting special
burning). ARC should have notified the State at least 15 days prior to use of
these additional 90-day accumulation areas.
-------
26
8. ARC accumulated hazardous waste on-site in 90-day storage areas
without clearly marking each container with the date upon which each
period of waste accumulation began. This included:
• Fourteen drums, some red metal and fiber, at hot trash
storage area 105 [Appendix B-8]
• Two HMX fiber drums at hot trash storage area 116
[Appendix B-3]
• Four plastic bags in locked, fenced, hot trash storage area 85
[Appendix B-9]
• One red drum at hot trash storage area 28
• One drum in storage area 107 (this drum was actually marked
as "non-regulated" but was found to contain mercuric cyanide
and silver permanganate)
• One 5-gallon bucket containing a 1-quart jar of urea nitrate
and two 1-quart cans of sodium naphthalene located on the
burn pad
Additionally, numerous drums at hot trash storage areas had
several dates listed and/or dates that were upside down [Appendix B-10].
General Facility Standards
1. Inspection records for the thermal treatment area, and safety and
emergency equipment were incomplete. None of the inspection reports
reviewed included the time of the inspection. These included:
• Fifteen thermal treatment area inspection reports (January 2,
1990, to April 13, 1990 - Appendix I)
• Twenty-eight general facility safety and emergency equipment
inspection reports (February 12, 1990 through April 16, 1990,
-------
27
for fire truck W-30, and January 5, 1990, through April 16,
1990, for fire truck B-30).
Many of the inspection reports reviewed included only the initials of
the inspector rather than the name. These included:
• Five general facility safety and emergency equipment
inspection reports (the February 12, 1990 report for fire truck
W-30; and February 14, 1990 report for fire truck B-30)
[Appendix J].
Inspection reports identifying required remedial actions did not
include the date and nature of remedial actions taken. These included
thermal treatment area inspection reports (hot trash logs) for:
• April 3, 1989 (pit 1 overloaded)
• July 12, 1989 (holes in pit 1)
• September 5, 1989 (hot trash pan) [Appendix I]
2. The written schedule for inspecting all facility monitoring, safety and
emergency equipment, security devices, and operating and structural
equipment that are important to preventing, detecting, or responding to
environmental or human health hazards was not complete. According to
the ARC Environmental Coordinator, ARC is currently using the
inspection plan described in the November 7, 1988, RCRA Part B permit
application (revised June 30, 1989). Attachment IV of the plan lists the
equipment to be inspected weekly but only includes firehouse and fire truck
equipment. The plan does not include inspections conducted for the facility
emergency warning siren and the phone and two-way radio system (the
latter of which is used during each burn) [Appendix K].
-------
28
Contingency Plan
1. The current ARC contingency plan (the plan contained in the
June 30, 1989, revision of the ARC RCRA Part B permit application)
[Appendix L] does not describe arrangements agreed to by the local police
departments, fire departments, hospitals, contractors, and Virginia and
local emergency response teams for coordinating emergency services.
Item 13 of the plan states that copies of the contingency plan are available to
and have been discussed with the local police and fire departments and the
hospital. Pages six and seven of the plan's Attachment A state that, if the
hazard is deemed to be beyond the remedial capabilities of ARC's spill
response team, the incident commander may call for additional outside
assistance. Pages 43 and 44 of Attachment A describe ARC's policy on
requesting outside assistance from Prince William County Fire and Rescue
units. However, the applicable agreements with the local services are not
described.
2. The contingency plan does not list names, addresses, and phone
numbers (office and home) of all persons qualified to act as emergency
coordinator. Page one of the plan provides only emergency coordinator
responsibility information. Pages 14 and 15 provide names, phone
numbers, and cities of numerous emergency per&onnel but do not identify
the emergency coordinator. Page 40 provides the name of the emergency
coordinator but does not include phone numbers or addresses. Attachment
II of the plan's Attachment A provides four pages of names, cities, states,
and home phone numbers but does not identify the emergency coordinator.
Although the plan identifies C. G. Lawrence as the emergency coordinator
in one place (page 40) and provides his phone numbers, city, and state in
another (Attachment II of Attachment A), the plan does not list this
information, nor does it contain C. G. Lawrence's complete address
[Appendix L].
Additionally, the plan separates responsibility between the
emergency operations director and the officer in charge. Page one of the
plan's Attachment A states that the senior member of management
present at the plant is, in times of emergency, ultimately responsible for
-------
29
control activities. This senior member of management is referred to as the
emergency operations director. Page 39 Attachment A states that the
officer in charge of the first response team will serve as the incident
commander for the duration of an emergency operation. Page 40 of the
plan's Attachment A further titles the officer in charge as the chief officer,
titles the chief officer as the emergency coordinator, and names the
emergency coordinator as C. G. Lawrence.
3. The plan does not include the location, description, and capabilities of
some facility emergency equipment (such as communication equipment,
and alarm systems observed on-site). Attachment 1 of the plan's
Attachment A lists the emergency equipment used for chemical
emergencies, including all hazardous waste material responses, but this
listing only includes the equipment stored on the two fire trucks (wagon 30
and brush 30) and in the firehouse (building 36). The facility has an
emergency phone procedure, two-way radios and an emergency siren that
are not listed in the contingency plan [Appendix L].
4. The plan does not describe a complete evacuation plan, including
signals, routes, and alternate routes for facility personnel for conditions
where there is a possibility that evacuation could be necessary. Pages 21
through 23 of Attachment A only describe storm condition,; requiring ARC
to evacuate the facility, and pages 27 and 28 only identify assembly locations
for bomb threats. Neither of these conditions is addressed completely nor
are explosion or fire evacuation measures related to the thermal treatment
area addressed [Appendix L].
Operating Record
The facility operating record for the thermal treatment area is
incomplete. The record does not identify dates of hazardous waste
treatment and the quantities of some hazardous waste burned. ARC has
two records relating to quantity and dates of energetic waste burning; hot
trash log and burn pit log [Appendix I and M],
-------
30
None of the logs reviewed (hot trash logs from April 1989, to April 13,
1990, and burn pit logs from January 1989 to April 13, 1990) identify each
treatment (burn) date. Although the burn pit log identifies the weight of
most material taken to the pits, the quantity for each burn is not provided.
Also, the weight of individual loads of waste taken to the pits is not always
recorded. According to the burn pit logs, the following wastes were loaded
into the thermal treatment pits without weights recorded [Appendix Mj:
• Ammonium perchlorate loaded in pits 1, 2, and 3 on March 14,
1989
• "Hot waste" loaded on January 2, 1990
• "Propellent + ignition material" loaded on January 12, 1990
• "Aluminum dust collector pipe" and "propellent + ignition
material" loaded on January 13, 1990
• "Hot waste material" loaded in pits 1, 2, and 3 on March 12,
1990
• "Hot Waste Material" loaded into pit 1 on March 23, 1990
Use and Management of Containers
1. ARC did not transfer hazardous waste from containers not iu good
condition. Hazardous waste was stored in drums that had rust holes and
were bent. These included:
• Red drums containing energetic waste in storage areas 41 and
46 (one in each) which had several small rust holes near the
bottom [Appendix B-ll]
• A red drum containing energetic waste at storage area 46
which had a bent lid [Appendix B-12]
• A red drum of energetic waste in storage area 100 that was
dented.
-------
31
2. Containers of hazardous waste were not always kept closed during
storage except when necessary to add or remove waste. These included:
• Red drums of energetic waste at storage areas 41 and 222 that
could not be completely closed because of grounding clips
attached to the drum lip preventing the lid from closing
completely (the 1- to 2-inch drum/lid opening caused by
grounding clips attached to the lip of the drum is a reoccurring
problem at many of the storage areas) [Appendix B-ll]
• A silver drum of solvent contaminated rags at storage area 46
that could not be closed due to an over accumulation of rags
[Appendix B-12]
• A red drum containing energetic waste at storage area 46
which had a bent lid that could not be completely closed
[Appendix B-12]
• An open bag of energetic waste inside an open drum at storage
area 105.
3. ARC personnel did not inspect less-than-90-day storage areas during
1 week in 1989. No inspection was conducted during the week of May 14,
1989. This is evident from a notation on a blank inspection sheet dated
May 17, 1989 stating that "had a 40 hour class; didn't have time to inspect"
[Appendix N]. There is no completed inspection record for the week of
May 14, 1989 (the facility has maintained inspection records for other
weeks).
Permit application
1. The ARC RCRA Part A permit applications were not signed by both
the facility operator (ARC) and the property owner. ARC leases the Pine
Ridge plant property from the Gainesville Associates. Neither the original
(December 20, 1983) nor the updated (June 29, 1989) permit application was
-------
32
signed by a representative of the property owner. The applications were
only signed by an ARC representative [Appendix 0].
2. The ARC original RCRA Part A permit application (December 20,
1983) was not complete. The application did not include the specifications
and estimated quantity of some hazardous waste treated at the facility.
Only "D001" and "waste explosives" were identified in the application. ARC
thermally treats reactive hazardous waste (D003) and reactive waste
contaminated with solvents (F002, F003, F005). Solvent wastes were
included in an amended Part A permit application (June 29, 1989)
submitted with the facility RCRA Part B permit application.
Land Disposal Restrictions
1. ARC did not determine, through waste analysis or knowledge of the
waste, that waste generated on-site was restricted from land disposal. ARC
combines several spent solvent waste streams in 55-gallon drums. While
specific constituents and/or concentrations of each constituent will vary
between 55-gallon drums (each mixture is dependent on the particular
batch operation in progress when each drum is filled), the mixtures
usually contain solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone, methylene chloride,
tetrahydrofuran, toluene, perchloroethylene, and ethyl alcohol
[Appendix G].
According to ARC material safety data sheets, the solvents, before
use, compose 99 to 100% of the solution [Appendix G]. Spent solvent
mixtures containing methyl ethyl ketone and/or toluene are listed
hazardous wastes, F005, restricted from land disposal. Mixtures
containing methylene chloride are listed F001 hazardous wastes, also
restricted from land disposal. ARC sent such spent solvent mixtures to
Safety Kleen Envirosystems as bulk "RQ Flammable Liquid N.O.S.," "D001"
[Appendix G].
Additionally, rags contaminated with spent methyl ethyl ketone,
1,1,1-trichloroethane, and methylene chloride from degreasing were
-------
33
improperly identified as D001 rather than F005 or F001 waste. These rags
were manifested as "Waste Flammable Solid, NOS," "D001" [Appendix P].
2. ARC did not retain, on-site, a copy of the land disposal restriction
certification or notification with manifest No. CWM 289234 for the off-site
shipment of hazardous waste. Hazardous waste shipped under this
manifest included "Waste Paint (RQXF003)" a land disposal restricted
hazardous waste [Appendix Q]. The ARC file did not contain a notification
or certification for this waste shipment.
Underground Storage Tanks
1. The May 6, 1986, ARC notification to the VWCB, identifying the
regulated USTs brought into use after May 8, 1986, did not identify three of
the five regulated tanks. The notification only included the 6,000-gallon
unleaded gasoline tank and the 2,000-gallon leaded gasoline tank but not
the 1,000-gallon waste oil tank, 1,000-gallon kerosene tank, or 1,000-gallon
flammable liquid tank [Appendix R]. All five tanks were in service prior to
May 8, 1986. Four regulated tanks (the 1,000-gallon flammable liquid tank
was removed from ARC in January 1990) were in service during the NEIC
inspection.
2. ARC did not prevent release from spilling or overfilling of a regulated
UST. The soil in about a 2-foot-diameter area surrounding the used oil tank
fill apparatus was discolored, indicating oil release [Appendix B-13],
3. ARC did not revise the May 6, 1986, UST notification after removing a
UST. On January 2, 1990, Groundwater Technology, Incorporated (GTI),
an ARC contractor, removed the 1,000-gallon flammable liquid UST from
ARC's premises. On March 8, 1990, GTI sent tank closure information to
the VWCB, but did not include a revised notification [Appendix S].
-------
34
CLEAN AIR ACT
Regulatory Status
ARC generates VOC air emissions during painting, cleaning and
degreasing operations. ARC conducts research, including motor testing,
on beryllium based propellents and operates facility boilers for space and
process heat. Therefore, ARC is subject to some Virginia Air Pollution
Control Regulations [the Virginia Air Control Board (VACB) has been
delegated authority to manage the CAA program]. Virginia regulations
incorporate, by reference, Federal hazardous air pollutant requirements.
ARC received a permit to construct and operate a beryllium rocket
propellent laboratory, and test firing facility in June 1986 [Appendix T].
The permit was modified on October 31, 1988 to delete the beryllium ambient
monitoring requirement (stack sampling is still required - Appendix U).
The facility does not have any other air emission control permits. However,
other ARC point air emission sources have been registered with the VACB.
The current (April 25, 1984) ARC registration (number 70033) identifies one
spray paint booth (building 28), two vapor degreasers and rocket motor
cleaning (with methyl ethyl ketone) as plant VOC emission sources.
Facility boilers are also registered.
According to the Virginia Emissions Inventory System for Point
Sources, ARC emitted 6 tons of volatile organic compounds in 1988 (the
most recent update). The ARC registration identified VOC sources to
include: one paint both (2 tons per year VOC), two vapor degreasers (.15
tons per year VOC each, and spot degreasing (no value given). A second
spray paint booth, not registered, was estimated to emit less than 2 tons per
year. Based on the Emission Inventory, the facility is exempt from Virginia
State Rule 4-34 (emission standard for miscellaneous metal parts and
products coating application systems).
According to ARC personnel, facility boilers normally use natural
gas fuel. Periodically, ARC switches to fuel oil at the request of the natural
gas supplier. The largest ARC boiler, rated at 34 million British thermal
-------
35
units (Btus) per hour, burning fuel oil with 0.25 percent sulfur and 140,000
Btus per gallon fuel content, emits less than the maximum allowed (by
regulation) sulfur dioxide emissions of 36 pounds per hour.
Compliance Status
1. The ARC training records for operators of the beryllium air pollution
control equipment did not include the name(s) of the operators or a
certification of training (including a statement of the time, place, and
nature of completed training). The only records ARC provided that were
associated with training of beryllium facility operators were a July 14, 1987,
one-page memo regarding unspecified training and an announcement and
agenda of available training [Appendix V]. ARC claimed all applicable
personnel were trained but the specific records were not provided.
2. The current VACB registration (dated April 25, 1984) is not complete
or accurate and has not been updated to reflect facility modifications to VOC
emission sources. The registration does not include all VOC air emission
sources and has not been updated to show system modifications
[Appendix W]. Registration deficiencies include:
• No listing of the spray paint booth in building 40 (in operation
since before 1983 - the year the registration was prepared for)
• No listing for spot degreasing of mechanical parts at various
facility locations (using various solvents including 1,1,1,
trichloroethane); degreasing is used during equipment
maintenance and has been used since facility operations
began.
• An inaccurate statement claiming that the building 74
degreaser "is not in use at this time" when, in fact, the unit
was in operation during the NEIC inspection
• Improper identification of degreasing solvent in the two
operating vapor degreasers. The registration has not been
-------
36
updated to show a change from perchloroethylene to freon in
the building 40 and 74 vapor degreasers.
TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT (Polvchlorinated Biphenyl
Management)
Regulatory Status
According to ARC personnel, the facility does not have any PCB
transformers or capacitors. However, the facility operates heat transfer
equipment which historically contained PCBs regulated under TSCA.
Leakage from PCB equipment contaminated soils outside various plant
buildings. According to ARC soil sampling analytical results, PCB-
contaminated soil has been excavated and contaminated soil, heat transfer
fluid, and heat transfer equipment were disposed of off-site in the late
1970s/early 1980s and again in 1987/1988 (some material from the early
cleanup was buried on-site and required removal). The last shipment of
PCB-contaminated material was on August 8, 1988. The 1989 PCB annual
document showed that no PCB material was handled.
Heat exchange equipment that previously contained PCB fluid
remains in use in building 105. The system was originally flushed in the
early 1980s. The fluid was sampled and analyzed in February 1983 and
found to contain 138 parts per million (ppm) PCBs (ARC believes that an
extrusion die, inadvertently not flushed in the early 1980s, recontaminated
the heat exchange equipment). Following further flushing, the PCB
concentration was reduced to 1.9 ppm.
Compliance Status
Based on information provided during the NEIC inspection, ARC no
longer has any PCB equipment at the facility that is regulated under TSCA
(the PCB content of the building 105 heat transfer fluid was last determined
to be less than 50 ppm in 1983, following flushing).
-------
37
EMERGENCY PLANNING AND COMMUNITY RIGHT-TO-KNOW ACT
Regulatory Status
ARC notified the Virginia Emergency Council and the local fire and
rescue departments of the names of hazardous chemicals and extremely
hazardous substances used at the facility in quantities above the minimum
threshold levels in October 16, 1987 (EPCRA Section 311/312 reporting). The
latest Tier One chemical inventory update was dated March 1, 1990.
ARC also reported environmental release of three toxic chemicals
(EPCRA Section 313 reporting). The three chemicals were methyl ethyl
ketone, aluminum (dust), and 1,1,1-trichloroethane.
Compliance Status
The list of hazardous chemicals/extremely hazardous substances,
submitted on October 16, 1987, was not complete. Rather than submitting
material safety data sheets for each regulated substance, ARC elected the
alternate reporting method of listing the common chemical name of each
substance. Although ARC listed each chemical name as well as the CAS
number, the cheuiicals were not grouped by hazard class [Appendix X].

Dear Mr. Young:
This is in response to your November 30, 1987 letter to
Michael Petruska concerning your hazardous waste container storage
areas.
The storage areas you describe appear to be satellite accumula-
tion areas. A satellite accumulation area must be at or near any
point of generation where wastes initially accumulate. The satel-
lite accumulation area should also be under the control of the
person operating the waste generation process, and your operation
appears to meet these criteria.
If ARC accumulates no more than 55 gallons of hazardous waste
or one quart of acutely hazardous wastes at each satellite area and
follows the other requirements of 40 CFR 262.34(c), the areas would
not be subject to permitting, interim status, or the requirements
for generator storage at Section 262.34(a).
If you have further questions in this area, please continue to
communicate with Michael Petruska of my staff at (202) 475-8551.
Sincerely,
V
Marcia E. Williams

Dear Mr. Petruska:
Atlantic Research Corporation (ARC) requests a formal clarification
of CFR 40 Section 262. 34 (c) (1) as it pertains to cur facility at
5945 Wellington Road in Gainesville, Virginia. The plant, which
is 420 acres and comprised of approximately 150 snail buildings,
manufactures solid rocket propellant. In it's operations, ARC
generates waste chemicals which are accumulated in containers located
in storage sheds outside of the buildings generating the materials.
The waste chemicals are accumulated outside of the buildings for
safety reasons due to the explosive nature of the work conducted.
The waste chemical containers are moved from the storage shed once
they are filled and taken to our waste chemical storage facility
where the start accumulation begins and arrangements for off-site
disposal at a TSD facility are made.
ARC believes that the storage sheds described above satisfy
the requirements for satellite storage as descibed in CFR 40
Section 262. 34 (c) (1) . ARC's storage sheds are located as close as
safety permits 'to the operation generating the waste chemicals and
no more than one container per material is located in any single
shed. ARC consulted EPA's Industry Assistance Group about our
storage facilities. The Industry Assictance personnel stated our
facilities do fall under the definition of CTR 40 Section 262. 34 (c) (1)
and referred us to you for a written confirmation of their
interpretation .
If you have any questions or need additional information, contact
me at (703) 642-6411.

Dear Mr. Grover:
The holding pads, where waste explosives and propellants are
held until the weekly thermal treatment operations are conducted,
were redefined as accumulation areas during the recent inspection.
This interpretation has never been proposed until now. ARC has
taken the actions discussed below to comply with this new
interpretation.
The following sites, identified by the building number the
pads are associated with, are now designated accumulation areas
for the storing of waste explosive and propellants:

The containers for this waste are now labeled as shown on the
attached label. The label will be replaced each v/eek, as necessary
to maintain ledgibility, as the waste is collected to be moved to
the thermal treatment units. The accumulation start date will
placed on each label after each collection. The previous v/eek 's
date will be crossed out as the new date is entered. Waterproof
labels are being ordered which will not need to be replaced as
frequently. This new system will bring the waste explosives
accumulation activities in line with the new interpretation.
If you have any questions or comments please call me at

Dear Ms. Bailey:
Pursuant to §6.4.E.2.e. of the Ccmonwealth of Virginia's
Hazardous Waste Management Regulations, Atlantic Research Corporation
(ARC) is notifying the Virginia Department of Waste- Management (VC&M)
of ARC's accumulation areas for hazardous waste at the Gainesville, VA
facility (VAD023741705) .
The Gainesville facility has three types of hazardous waste
accumulation areas: 1) hot trash area; 2) satellite storage area; and
3) chemical waste handling area. At the hot trash area, hot trash is
accumulated in drums and then is taken to the thermal treatment facility—
on site for disposal. These drums are emptied approximately once a
week. The satellite storage areas are used to accumulate waste materials
which are to be disposed of off-site. Once the containers are filled,
they are taken to the their disposal within the ninety day limit. A
list of the location of these areas and a reference map are attached.
If you have any questions, please contact me at (703)642-6448.

Respondent
Docket No. RCRA-III-098
Consent Agreement and
Consent Order
Preliminary Statement
1. This administrative proceeding requiring certain actions
and assessing a civil penalty was initiated pursuant to
Section 3008(a) of the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act, 42 U.S.C. § 6928 (the Act). The United States En-
vironmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a Complaint,
Compliance Order and Notice of Opportunity for Hearing on
March 16, 1984 against Respondent. The Complaint alleged
that Respondent, in violation of the Act, operated a
hazardous waste management facility without a permit.
2. For the purposes of this proceeding, Respondent admits
the jurisdictional allegations of the Complaint.
3. For the purposes of this proceeding, Respondent neither
admits nor denies the facts contained in the Complaint and
in the Findings of Fact in this Consent Agreement.
4. Respondent hereby expressly waives its right to request a
hearing on any issue of fact or law set forth in the
Complaint or herein.
5. Respondent consents to the issuance of this Consent
Agreement and Consent Order and agrees to comply with its
terms.
6. In mitigation of the penalty proposed in the Complaint,
Respondent states:
a. Respondent has been operating its "Hot Trash Pit" for
approximately 20 years without any inadvertant detonation,
fragmentation or mishap. It is used to burn waste from
Respondent's solid propellant operations.
b. Respondent has been and continues to operate this pit
under the requirements of the Department of Defense (DOD).
c. The DOD requirements for this type of operation were used
by EPA as the basis for regulation 40 C.F.R. S 265.382 -
Open Burning. EPA did not, however, incorporate the
DOD requirements in full in its regulation.
-------
- 2 -
d. Respondent was informed by a representative of the
Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Health that it
was a small quantity generator and did not have to
submit a Part A Permit Application in order to qxialify
for interim status and continue its operation of the
pit.
e. DOD regulations prohibit the long term accumulation of
the material being burned in the pit and Department
of Transportation regulations prohibit its transportation
off-site .
EPA has determined, as set forth in the Complaint, that
the date for submission of a Part A for this facility
will be extended to January 19, 1984 pursuant to regulation
40 C.F.R. § 270.10(a)(3). Respondent then, is, considered
to qualify for interim status and is subject to the
applicable requirements and regulations.
EPA and Respondent agree that the facility will, for
enforcement purposes, be considered in compliance with
regulation 40 C.F.R. § 265.382 if its open burning
activities conform to Chapter 5 of Army Regulation
AR385-64. (See Attachment 1)
Findings of Fact
1. Respondent is the owner and operator of a business in
Gainesville, Virginia which includes a facility for open
burning of hazardous waste listed or identified under
Section 3001 of the Act, 42 U.S.C. S 6921.
2. Respondent's facility was in operation prior to and has
been in operation since August 18, 1980.
3. Respondent submitted to EPA a Notification of Hazardous
Waste Activity for this facility on August 18, 1980.
4. Respondent submitted to EPA a Part A Permit Application for
this facility on January 19, 1984.
Conclusions of Law
1. Section 3005(a) of Subtitle C of the Act, 42 U.S.C.
S 6925(a), prohibits the treatment, storage or disposal
of hazardous waste listed or identified under Subtitle C
except in accordance with regulations requiring a permit
for such activity.
-------
2. Section 3005(e) of the Act and regulations 40 C.F.R.
§§ 270.70 through .73 provide that an owner or operator
shall be treated as having been issued a permit pending
final administrative disposition of the permit application
if the following requirements for attaining interim status
are met: (1) compliance with the notification provision
in Section 3010(a) of the Act, 42 U.S.C. § 6930(a), if
applicable, (2) submission of a Part A Permit Application
by November 19, 1980 and (3) facility in existence on
November 19, 1980.
3. Respondent's facility is an "existing hazardous waste
management facility" as defined in regulation 40 C.F.R.
§ 260.10.
4. Respondent's facility did not qualify for interim status
due to its failure to submit a timely Part A Permit
Application except by virtue of the extension provided by
the Complaint and paragraph 7 of the Preliminary Statement.
5. By reason of the facts set forth in the Complaint and
Findings of Fact, it is concluded that Respondent has
operated a hazardous waste management facility without a
permit, in violation of regulations promulgated under
Section 3005 of the Act and Section 3005 of the Act,
which are requirements of Subtitle C of the Act.

ment of this Consent Order may be extended, upon EPA approval,
for a period equal to the delay resulting from such circum-
stances, This shall be accomplished through an amendment
to this Consent Order pursuant to Section XXI, "SUBSEQUENT
MODIFICATION." Such as extension does not alter the schedule
for performance or completion of any other tasks required
by this Consent Order, unless these tasks are also specif-
ically altered by amendment of the Consent Order. In the
event that EPA and Respondent cannot agree that any delay
or failure has been or will be caused by circumstances not
reasonably foreseeable and beyond the control of Respondent,
which cannot be overcome by due diligence, or if there is
no agreement on the length of the extension, the dispute
shall be resolved in accordance with Section XV, "DISPUTE
RESOLUTION."

METHYL ETHYL KETONE IS AN EYE, SKIN, AND MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITANT AND
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSANT. IT MAY ENHANCE THE NEUROTOXIC EFFECTS
OF N-HEXANE OR METHYL N-BUTYL KETONE, AND PREDISPOSE THE LIVER TO INJURY FROM
HEPATOTOXINS. PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF CHRONIC SKIN OR RESPIRATORV DISEASE
MAY BE AT AN INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE.
HEALTH EFFECTS AND FIRST AID
INHALATION:
METHYL ETHYL KETONE:
IRRITANT/NARCOTIC. 3000 PPM IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE OR HEALTH.
ACUTE EXPOSURE- INHALATION OF VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS OF 100-200 PPM CAUSED
MILD NOSE AND THROAT IRRITATION, 300-500 PPM WAS OBJECTIONABLE AND
CAUSED THROAT IRRITATION, HEADACHE. AND NAUSEA, 3,300 PPM WAS MODERATELY
IRRITATING; AND MOMENTARY EXPOSURE TO 33, 000 AND 100, 000 PPM PRODUCED
INTOLERABLE IRRITATION OF THE NOSE AND THROAT. WORKERS EXPOSED TO
90-270 PPM/4- HOURS SHOWED SHORTENED TIME ESTIMATIONS IN MEN AND INCREASED
THE VARIATION IN TIME ESTIMATION TESTS IN WOMEN. EXTREMELV HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS MAY CAUSE COUCHING AND SHORTNESS OF BREATH. AND CENTRAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSION WITH HEADACHE. LICHTHEADEDNESS. NAUSEA.
VOMITING. DIZZINESS, INCOORDINATION, AND NARCOSIS. GUINEA PIGS EXPOSED TO
10,000 PPM DEVELOPED IRRITATION RAPIDLY, AND NARCOSIS DEVELOPED AFTER
AFTER 5 HOURS, 33, 000 PPM/200 MINUTES PRODUCED NARCOSIS AND DEATH,
AND 100,000 PPM/55 MINUTES PRODUCED NARCOSIS AFTER 10 MINUTES. ODOR AND
IRRITATION ARE GENERALLY SUFFICENT TO PREVENT OVEREXPOSURE.
METHYL ETHYL KETONE MAY ENHANCE THE NEUROTOXIC EFFECTS OF N-HEXANE AND
METHYL N-BUTYL KETONE.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE- WORKERS EXPOSED VIA INHALATION AND SKIN CONTACT TO
300-600 PPM COMPLAINED OF NUMBNESS IN THE ARMS AND FINGERS, ONE WORKER
COMPLAINED OF NUMBNESS IN THE LEGS AND A TENDENCY FOR THEM TO GIVE WAV.
SEVERAL CASES OF PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY, INCLUDING OPTIC NEURITIS DUE TO
METABOLITES, HAVE BEEN REPORTED IN WORKERS. PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY HAS NOT
SEEN INDUCED IN ANIMALS BY METHYL ETHYL KETONE ALONE. HOWEVER. IT HAS BEEN
DEMONSTRATED IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS THAT METHYL ETHYL KETONE POTENTIATES
THE NEUROTOXIC EFFECTS OF N-HEXANE AND METHYL N-BUTYL KETONE. EXPOSURE
RELATED EFFECTS ON THE LIVER AND BRAIN HAVE BEEN REPORTED IN RATS AT
EXPOSURES UP TO 5000 PPM. OFFSPRING OF PREGNANT RATS EXPOSED TO 1,000 OR
3,000 PPM EXHIBITED ACAUOIA, IMPERFORATE ANUS, BRACHYGNATHIA, AND FETAL
DEVELOPMENTAL RETARDATION. THE SAME INVESTIGATORS REPEATED THE STUDY AND
3,000 PPM PRODUCED SLIGHT MATERNAL TOXICITY AND SLIGHT FETOTOXICITY,
BUT NO EMBRYO TOXICITY OR TERATOCENICITV WERE SEEN. '
FIRST AID- REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE AREA TO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. IF BREATHING
HAS STOPPED, PERFORM ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. KEEP PERSON WARM AND AT REST.
TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY AND SUPPORTIVELY. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
SKIN CONTACT:
METHYL ETHYL KETONE:
IRRITANT.
ACUTE EXPOSURE- CONTACT WITH LIQUID OR CONCENTRATED VAPORS MAY CAUSE
DERMATITIS. DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE LIQUID MAY CAUSE EXTREME THICKENING

APPLICATION OF A LETHAL DOSE TO RABBIT SKIN PRODUCED ERYTHEMA, EDEMA, AND
NECROSIS. LIVER AND INTESTINAL CONGESTION WERE ALSO REPORTED
CHRONIC EXPOSURE- REPEATED OR PROLONGED EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE DEFATTING OF THE
SKIN PRODUCING A DRY, SCALY, FISSURED DERMATITIS. WORKERS EXPOSED VIA SKIN
CONTACT AND INHALATION TO 300-600 PPM COMPLAINED OF NUMBNESS IN THE ARMS
AND FINGERS; ONE WORKER COMPLAINED OF NUMBNESS IN THE LEGS AND A TENDENCY
FOR THEM TO GIVE WAY. REPEATED CONTACT WITH METHYL ETHYL KETONE AND
TETRAHYDROFURAN PRODUCED BILATERAL PARESTHESIA AND LOSS OF MUSCLE
STRENGTH IN A WORKER. SYMPTOMS PERSISTED FOR 2 MONTHS FOLLOWING CESSATION
OF EXPOSURE.
FIRST AID- REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES IMMEDIATELY WASH AFFECTED
AREA WITH SOAP OR MILD DETERGENT AND LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER UNTIL NO
EVIDENCE OF CHEMICAL REMAINS CAPPROXIMATELY 15-20 MINUTES) GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
EYE CONTACT!
METHYL ETHYL KETONE:
IRRITANT.
ACUTE EXPOSURE- EXPOSURE TO VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS OF 200 PPM CAUSED
IRRITATION AND A BURNING SENSATION OF THE EYELIDS, 3,300 PPM PRODUCED
MODERATE IRRITATION, AND 10,000 PPM WAS INTOLERABLE TO HUMANS DIRECT
CONTACT OF THE LIQUID WITH THE EYES CAUSED PAINFUL IRRITATION AND
TEMPORARY CORNEAL INJURY IN RABBITS, GRADED 5 ON A SCALE OF 1-10. IN
GUINEA PIGS, 10V- VAPOR FOR 30 MINUTES CAUSED TEMPORARY CORNEAL OPACITY
WHICH CLEARED WITHIN 8 DAYS.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE- REPEATED OR PROLONGED EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE CONJUNCTIVITIS
A CASE OF OPTIC NEURITIS WAS REPORTED AS A RESULT OF SYSTEMIC POISONING
FOLLOWING REPEATED INHALATION EXPOSURE.
FIRST AID- WASH EYES IMMEDIATELY WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER OR NORMAL SALINE,
OCCASIONALLY LIFTING UPPER AND LOWER LIDS, UNTIL NO EVIDENCE OF CHEMICAL
REMAINS CAPPROXIMATELY 15-20 MINUTES}. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
INGESTIONi
METHYL ETHYL KETONEi
NARCOTIC.
ACUTE EXPOSURE- INGESTION MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT
WITH ABDOMINAL SPASMS, NAUSEA, VOMITING, AND POSSIBLY CENTRAL NERVOUS
SYSTEM DEPRESSION, INCLUDING NARCOSIS. ADMINISTRATION OF A LETHAL DOSE TO
RATS PRODUCED CONGESTED AND HEMORRHAGIC LUNGS. AND CONGESTION OF THE
LIVER, ALIMENTARY TRACT, AND PERITONEAL WALL. ANIMAL STUDIES SHOW THAT
METHYL ETHYL KETONE POTENTIATES THE HEPATOTOXIC AND NEPHROTOXIC EFFECTS OF
CHLOROFORM, AND MAY POTENTIATE THE HEPATOTOXIC EFFECTS OF CARBON
TETRACHLORIDE.

SECURITY, EQUIPMENT AND INSPECTIONS
Summary
The facility manufactures military equipment and thus has a
high level of security due to classified operations concerns. in
addition, the safety concerns mandate that the facility be
protected from unauthorized individuals. The entire plant is
surrounded by a six foot chain link fence topped with three
strands of barbed wire. All gates are controlled by security
guards when unlocked. Access to the plant is strictly controlled.
At least two guards are on duty at all times. Radio
communications are maintained between all guards. A patrol of the
perimeter is conducted at least once each eight hours.
Access to the thermal treatment units is strictly controlled
by procedures, gates and signs. Only personnel trained in
propellant handling are allowed into the thermal treatment unit
area. Appendix 3 (Energetic Trash Disposal) contains the site
access control procedures utilized by the disposal team.
Inspections
There are three types of inspections conducted in relation to
the waste explosives and propellant handling and disposal. First,
the storage pads are inspected weekly to insure that the drums
used to store energetic wastes are in good condition. The
inspection log for storage pads is included in Appendix 4. The
second type of inspection is conducted at the thermal treatment
units before waste is treated. Each unit is inspected to ensure
that no foreign materials are in the unit before waste energetic
materials are introduced. The emergency equipment inspection is
the third type. The equipment list and the inspection log is
included in Appendix 4. The equipment inspection is conducted
every time the fire truck is used, which is a minimum of once a
week. The operator inspects the equipment and notes materials
requiring replacement.
Equipment
In addition to the equipment listed in Appendix 4, the
facility emergency response personnel all carry two way radios
operating on 153.3200 MHZ. Each person assigned a radio
participates in a radio check every Monday at 9 AM. An additional

Inspections
There are three types of inspections conducted in relation to
the waste explosives and propellant handling and disposal. First,
the storage pads are inspected weekly to insure that the drums
used to store energetic wastes are in good condition. The
inspection log for storage pads is included in Appendix 4. The
second type of inspection is conducted at the thermal treatment
units before waste is treated. Each unit is inspected to ensure
that no foreign materials are in the unit before waste energetic
materials are introduced. The emergency equipment inspection is
the third type. The equipment list and the inspection log is
included in Appendix 4. The equipment inspection is conducted
every time the fire truck is used, which is a minimum of once a
week. The operator inspects the equipment and notes materials
requiring replacement.
Equipment
In addition to the equipment listed in Appendix 4, the
facility emergency response personnel all carry two way radios
operating on 153.3200 MHZ. Each person assigned a radio
participates in a radio check every Monday at 9 AM. An additional
hand held radio has both the plant and the local fire department
frequencies. This radio would be utilized in the event that
outside assistance would become necessary.
The plant has a general alarm siren that is sounded daily at
noon. The contingency plan describes the emergency response
procedures and •'-.he emergency communication system in detail.
In an emergency, security can be reached by dialing 6666 on
any plant telephone. Security acts as the central communications
point if outside help is required (see contingency plan).
Fire fighting procedures and equipment are described in
detail in the contingency plan. Propellants in general cannot be
extinguished once ignited. These materials are allowed to burn
themselves out unless personnel are trapped in a structure. Some
buildings have deluge systems designed to flood certain areas if a
fire should occur. These deluge systems are not involved with
waste material handling, storage or treatment.
Portable fire extinguishers around the plant are not part of
the hazardous materials response equipment, with the exception of
Revision 1, June 30, 1989
-------
the extinguishers on the fire trucks as listed in the contingency
plan. ARC hazrdous material incidents are handled soley by the
First Response Team. The team has the special training as
required by new OSHA regulations. The potential for injury to
untrained personnel is unacceptable. Portable extinguishers would
not be effective against burning explosives or propellants and
special fire fighting technics are required. For the reasons
stated above, only the portable extinguishers on the fire trucks,
as detailed in the contingency plan, should be concidered
emergency equipment for hazardous materials or hazardous waste.
The fire trucks are housed in building 36 as is the response
equipment listed in the contingency plan.
Waste material fires at a storage pad, should one ever occur,
would be allowed to burn out. Waste material fires in the thermal
treatment area would also be allowed to burn out. In both cases,
the areas are situated sufficiently.far from other structures that
the safest approach is to let the fire burn out.
Storage Requirements/Aisle Space
All energetic storage areas are situated so that in the event
of a fire or spill there is sufficient space for emergency
equipment and response personnel. In all but one case, only a
single row of drums is kept on each pad and access on both sides
is available. In the only case where more that one row of drums
is stored an aisle at least three feet wide is maintained.

CONTINGENCY PLAN
-------
CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR ATLANTIC RESEARCH CORPORATION'S GAINESVILLE
FACILITY
This document is developed in accordance with the requirements for a
Contingency Plan established in 40 CFR 270.14{b)(7), 264 Subpart D, and
264 Subpart X; and Virginia Hazardous Waste Management Regulations,
Section 9.00, paragraph 9.04. A copy of this Contingency Plan is
available to all local police and fire departments, hospitals, and State
and local emergency response teams that may be called upon to provide
emergency service.
1. GENERAL
This Contingency Plan is for the Gainesville, Virginia facility of the
Atlantic Research Corporation Propulsion Division located at 7945
Wellington Road. The Contingency Plan is located in and maintained by
the Safety Office. Additional copies are kept at the Emergency
Operations Center and the Environmental Office.
The Gainesville Facility is engaged primarily in the development of
solid propellant rocket motors in addition to the technological research
associated with these propulsion systems. Operations consist mainly of
the mixing and casting or pressing of solid propellants, and
laboratory scale testing/evaluation of these propellants.
The excess solid propellant remaining after mixing and the spent
solvents associated with propellant development comprise the facility's
solid wastes. These wastes are, for the most part, fire hazards, DOT
prohibited for transportation, and require specialized handling.
This plan is designed to minimize hazards to human health or the
environment from fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or
non-sudden release of solid propellant materials or hazardous waste
constituents to air, soil or surface water. The existing Gainesville
Emergency Procedures Plan (EPP; see Attachment A) will remain effective
for the remainder of the plant.
The provisions of the plan will be carried out immediately whenever
there is an imminent threat of or actual fire, explosion, or release of
hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents which could threaten
human health or the environment.
-------
2.0 EMERGENCY COORDINATION
If an emergency situation develops involving the Gainesville facility,
the individual discovering the incident will immediately contact the"
Emergency Operation Center (Guard Office, Bldg. 150) by: (1) dialing
6666 (ie. emergency call number) on any facility phone; (2) depressing
an evacuation alarm button found within the operating building; or (3)
if a guard or any other individual assigned a two-way radio unit, by
radio communication (see Attachment A; Emergency Procedures Plan (EPP),
SOP COMI-1-2). Upon receiving notification of an emergency, the on-duty
guard will immediately implement the Emergency Incident Procedure (ie.
page 2 of the EPP; Attachment A).
During all working shifts a First Response Unit, comprised of both
medical and fire fighting personnel, will be alerted via portable radio
or belt pagers as specified in the Emergency Incident Procedure and
Emergency Paging Procedure (SOP COMM-1) in Attachment A. The First
Response Unit Command structure in effect during such am emergency is
given in SOP OP-1 of the Standard Operating Procedures section of
Attachment A. The Officer in charge (i.e. Chief Officer)will be known
in this Contingency Plan as the Primary Emergency Coordinator.
At all times, there is at least one employee either on the facility
premises or on call (ie. available to respond to an emergency by
reaching the facility within a short period of time) with the
responsibility for coordinating all emergency response measures. During
non-operating hours, one of the on-duty guards will follow the Urgent
Question or Emergencies procedure, pages 14-16 of Attachment A, and
contact an emergency coordinator according to the integrated call
listings. The Safety Manager and Safety Engineer are to be contacted
via the Metropage system if neither is at home. This procedure is
specified in the Urgent Questions or Emergencies Procedures Addendum,
page 16 of Attachment A.
Whenever there is an imminent or actual emergency situation, the
Emergency Coordinator has the duty to implement the Contingency Plan.
The decision to implement the plan depends upon whether or not an
imminent or actual incident could threaten human health or the
environment. Once the plan is implemented, the Emergency Coordinator
must coordinate all activities undertaken and is authorized to commit
the resources of ARC, as needed, in implementing the Plan. This policy
is clarified on page 1 of Attachment A.
3.0 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONTINGENCY PLAN
The Contingency Plan will be implemented in any situation as defined in
the Emergency Incident Procedures of Attachment 1 (ie. page 2).
Specific emergency situations and the appropriate procedures are listed
within the EPP, Attachment A.
-------
4.0 EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCEDURES
Notification: The first person aware of an emergency shall activate the
Emergency Incident Procedure by immediately sounding the building
evacuation alarm or otherwise effect the prompt evacuation of the
incident area and alert Emergencies Operation Control by calling 6666 on
any facility phone (if outfitted with a two-way radio,respond via the
communicator).
Upon responding to the scene, the Emergency Coordinator will assess the
possible hazard to human health or the environment that may result from
the fire, explosion or release of hazardous waste.
If the Emergency Coordinator determines that the facility has had, or
may have, an incident such as a fire, explosion, or spill which could
threaten human health or the environment, he/she must report his/her
findings as delineated in the Control Procedures Section (page 5)
In that the Emergency Coordinator has the authority and responsibility
to call upon whatever outside aid necessary to minimize the threat to
human health and environment, the decision to gain assistance from any
source including but not limited to the entities listed in Attachment
III of the EPP, Emergency Contacts, will be conveyed and initiated by
the Emergency Operation Center according to the Emergency Incident
Procedures, Attachment A.
If an emergency affecting the facility and potentially threaten human
health or the environment beyond the confines of the facility, the
appropriate authorities listed in Attachment III will be alerted
immediately. If specifically requested by the Corporate Environmental
Compliance Officer, the Virginia State Hazardous Wastes Emergency
Response Team (804 323-2300), or the National Response Center
(1-800-424-8802 or 202-267-2675) will be included in the notification
effort. Specifically, the report will include: (a) name and telephone
number of the reporter; (b) name and address of the facility; (c) time
and type of incident (eg. fire, release of hazardous waste); (d) name
and quantity of material(s) involved to extent known; (e) extent of
injuries,if any; and (f) the possible hazards to human health or the
environment, and cleanup procedures.
5.0 IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Material Safety Data Sheets containing current data characterizing the
hazardous materials contained in the Gainesville facility are kept in
the Safety Office.
These Material Safety Data Sheets contain pertinent data on the
chemicals at the site including:
* Identification of chemical components of the processed
propellant;
-------
* Identification of the propellants and/or ingredients of
hazardous characteristics (eg. toxicity, reactivity,
and ignitability);
* Important chemical and physical properties for which data are
available;
* Fire Control procedures (eg. water or chemical foam); and,
* Appropriate procedures to counteract human exposure.
6.0 HAZARD ASSESSMENT
The Emergency Coordinator will assess possible hazards to human health
or the environment that may result from fire, explosion, or a release.
The Emergency Coordinator will assess the hazards posed by an emergency
through the following steps, by designate or as otherwise appropriate:'
* Identify the ingredients and/or propellants involved in the
incident;
* Consult the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheets and/or any
other source of pertinent emergency data including on or off site
technical expertise to determine the potential effects of
exposure/release, and appropriate safety precautions, if
necessary; and,
* Identify exposure and/or release pathways and the quantities of
propellant and/or ingredient involved.
This assessment will consider both the direct and indirect effects of
the fire, explosion, or release (eg. the effects of any toxic gases that!
are generated or the effects of any hazardous surface water runoff from I
water or chemical agents used to control fire and heat-induced
explosions).
Based on this assessment, the Emergency Coordinator will determine what
risk is posed to site workers and neighboring populations. If the
emergency cannot be controlled by site personnel without incurring unduei
risk, the Emergency Coordinator will follow the measures as outlined in '
the Emergency Incident Procedure, Attachment A, and notify the nece3sary
agencies listed in Attachment III of the situation and extent of '
assistance required.
If the Emergency Coordinator determines that any persons outside of the
Gainesville facility are at risk due to an emergency, he will contact ;
the appropriate agencies and departments listed in Attachment III and
advise them of the risk and the need or potential need to institute
off-site evaluation procedures.
7 . 0 CONTROL _PROCEDURES
Potential accidents fall under two general classifications: (1) fire
and/or explosion and (2) spills or release of hazardous materials. The
following sequence of events constitutes the specific responses and
control procedures to be taken in the event of a fire, explosion, or
release of hazardous material to the land or water.
-------
If a fire or an explosion appears imminent, or if either have occurred,
all activity related to the specific site will be ceased and emergency
activities initiated in accordance with the Emergency Procedures Plan,
Attachment A.
Upon notification that a hazardous material release or spill or process
upset resulting in a hazardous material release or spill has occurred,
the Emergency Operation Center will immediately relay the information on
to the Emergency Coordinator as specified in the Emergency Incident
Procedures, Attachment A.
The Emergency Coordinator will assess the magnitude and potential
seriousness of the hazardous material release or spill by reviev/ing the
following information:
1. Safety fact sheets for the material released or spilled.
2. Source of the release or spillage of hazardous material.
3. An estimate of the quantity released and the rate at which it is
being released, if applicable.
4. The direction in which the hazardous material release or spill is
heading, if applicable.
5. Personnel who may be or may have been in contact with material
and possible injury or sickness as a result.
6. Potential for fire and/or explosion resulting from the situation.
7. Estimate of area under influence of the release or spill.
If the emergency is determined to lie within Gainesville First Response
Team's capabilities, the Emergency Coordinator will implement
appropriate remedial action.
Specifically, this will include utilization of the First Response
Team's hazardous material (HAZMAT) expertise and emergency equipment.
As a minimum: (1) First Response Team members will don self-contained
breathing apparatus if necessary; (2) provide appropriate medical
attention to any individuals affected by the explosion/fire or
release/spill; (3) control access to the explosion/fire or release/spill
area; (4) impede the travel of any liquids released by diking, spreading
absorbent materials or plugging leakage; (5) employ the aid of facility
personnel to the extent possible toward controlling the explosion/fire
or release/spill; and (6) ultimately prepare the hazardous waste for
shipment or treatment, in an approved manner, after consulting with the
Corporate Environment Compliance Officer.
If the explos_ion/fire or release/spill involves propellants, the
Emergency Coordinator will, upon assessing the situation: (1) secure
access to the area and remove any source of potential ignition (if this
step is impossible, the situation will be considered grounds for
coordinated evacuation); (2) call upon qualified facility personnel to
plan and aid in a cleanup plan; (3) convene a meeting of the Unique or
Unusual Hazards Review Committee (ie. according to PP-F-23) if
appropriate; and (4) mobilize manpower and equipment as needed to
eradicate the emergency.
-------
If the explosion/fire or release/spill is beyond the capabilities of thf
tear,, the Emergency Coordinator will coordinate emergency medical needs!
evacuate and secure the explosion/fire or release/spill area, and in
conjunction with the Corporate Environmental Officer and pertinent
management personnel, solicit aid of a special explosion/fire or
release/spill cleanup contractor after notifying the appropriate
governmental bodies of the incident.
8. PREVENTION OF RECURRENCE OR SPREAD OF FIRES, EXPLOSIONS OR SPILLS
The Gainesville facility is strictly regulated relative to safeguarding
personnel and facilities from a single or recurring incident by
Department of Defense regulations. Inasmuch as the safety provisions
specified in DoD 4145.26M DoD Contractor's Safety Manual for Ammunition
Explosives, and Related Dangerous Materials address any probable
contingency, this document's requirements will be utilized to prevent
hazardous material emergencies. A copy of DoD 4145.26M is available in
the Gainesville facility's Safety Office. This document specifies the
use of quantity-distance relationships applicable to structures
and hazardous material amounts, as an example.
9. STORAGE AND TREATMENT OF RELEASED MATERIAL
Immediately after an emergency, the emergency coordinator, in
cooperation with the Environmental Compliance Officer, will make
arrangements for the treatment of recovered wastes, contaminated soil,
surface water, or any other contaminated materials.
10. HANDLING OF INCOMPATIBLE WASTES
The Emergency Coordinator, in cooperation with the Environmental
Compliance Officer, v/ill ensure that, in the affected area(s) of the
facility, that no waste that may be incompatible with the released
material is treated, stored, or disposed of until cleanup procedures are
completed.
11. POST-EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE
After an emergency event, all emergency equipment listed in Attachment
I will be cleaned so that it is fit for use or will be replaced.
Before operations are resumed, an inspection of all safety equipment
will be conducted according to existing emergency response protocol.
The Regional Administrator, State, and/or local authorities, as
appropriate, will be notified that post-emergency equipment maintenance
has been performed and operations will be resumed.
-------
12. EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT
In case of a fire, explosion, or release of hazardous material, the list
of firefighting, containment, and emergency equipment given in
Attachment I is available. Personnel performing any propellant
development activities involving are also required to wear eye
protection, conductive shoes, impervious gloves, flame retardant
clothing and either supplied air breathing apparatus or respirators.
Any required resources that may not be readily available at the
Gainesville facility will be obtained immediately from local commercial
sources.
13. COORDINATION AGREEMENTS
ARC has made the following arrangements to assist in response to
emergency situation:
a) Copies of the contingency plan are available to and have been
discussed with local police and fire departments and the
hospital.
14. EVACUATION PLANS
a) Evacuation plans are outlined in the Emergency Incident
Procedures section of the Emergency Procedures Plan,
Attachment A.
15. REQUIRED REPORTS
Any emergency event (eg. fire, explosion, etc.) requiring implementation
of the Contingency Plan will be reported to the EPA Regional
Administrator and State Air Pollution Control Board v/ithin 15 days after
the incident.

GENERAL INFORMATION
This Emergency Procedures Plan is intended as a guide for use
by affected individuals during an emergency at Atlantic Research
Corporation's Gainesville facility located at 5945 Wellington
Road, Gainesville, Virginia 22065. Atlantic Research is a
subsidiary of SEQUA Corporation and manufactures solid rocket
propellant motors and other related propulsion equipment. Figure l
is a general site plan for the Gainesville facility located at
LAT 38° 47'30"N LONG 77° 35'30"E in Prince William County,
Virginia. The procedure is intended to supplement existing
group~specific procedures currently in existence.
There is a common thread through all of the procedures that
follow. In the event of ANY emergency situation, employees are
to: 1) notify the guard station by calling the emergency telephone
number, extension 6666; and 2) if applicable, evacuate the
immediate area as quickly as possible.
By following these guidelines, the mechanics of neutralizing
the emergency ~ whatever its nature - may be set in motion.
The main thrust of any emergency-oriented operation must be
in the direction of prevention. However, when the unexpected
occurs, employees in responsible positions must be prepared to act
promptly, and appropriately, and to remain calm. It is toward
such occurrences that this procedure is directed.

Description of Emergency Coordination
The ARC First Response Unit is structured to require as
little outside assistance as possible, however, ARC has a strong
working relationship with the appropriate emergency agencies in
the area. This coordination takes the form of:
l. distribution of ARC contingency plans to all appropriate
response groups,
2. participation on the Local Emergency Planning Commission,
3. fire department biannual inspections,
4. and yearly site familiarization presentations, tours and
planning with the fire departments in the area.
Each of these activities is described below.
The contingency plans are under constant review and updates
incorporate the suggestions of the emergency response agencies in
the area. The contingency plan covers all the major emergencies
that could potentially occur at the site. This document explains
the preplanning ARC has done to address each potential emergency.
The ARC safety manager, Rick Shults, has assumed a dominant
position in the Local Emergency Planning Commission. ARC and IBM
personnel have been extremely active in developing the area's
response plans and the coordination of emergency response
agencies. Information on the materails on the site, their
locations and quantities have been forwarded to the commission.
Our staffs are currently involved in coordinating an area wide
approach to chemical incident response.
The Prince William County Fire and Rescue Department inspects
the site twice a year. Tours of various buildings are conducted.
Review and upgrading of pre-plans is conducted. Inspection of the
site for fire code compliance occurrs during each visit.
Annually, the 1st due response units from the fire department
are invited in for a tour of the facility. This involves Prince
William County Stations 4, 11, 15 and Fauquier County Station 40.
The capabilities of the ARC first repsonse unit are presented. An
orientation tour of the plant, describing response concerns,
building markings related to response, and discussions of response
coordination is conducted.
The contingency plan discusses in detail how response
coordinati-on in each type of emergency would be conducted.

EMERGENCY INCIDENT PROCEDURES
(Fires, Explosions, Building Collapses, Sudden Release
of Hazardous Materials, Etc.)
I. General
A. An emergency incident is defined as any incident:
1. Which requires or may require response by the
Gainesville Emergency First Response Team.
2. Which requires or may require response by out-
side fire or rescue equipment and/or personnel
as requested by the individual reporting the
incident.

plant, the guard will immediately, and without exception, issue a
"00" alert over the emergency paging system.
1. This standing order cannot be countermanded during
normal working hours by anyone other than
the Safety Department representative.
a. On the rare occasions in which the plant
nurse requests that an ambulance be called
for a non-emergency transport, and in which
she specifically says that the First Response
Team will not be needed, the guard shall not
issue a "00" page.
1) On these occasions it will remain the
guard's responsibility to contact the
officer in charge of the First Response
Team as soon as possible via radio and
apprise him of the situation. The guard
shall make it clear at this time that the
nurse has specifically said that the

2) The Officer in Charge of the First
Response Team may, at his discretion
and with cause, countermand the nurse's
decision and order that a "00" page
be issued anyway.
C. From the onset of an emergency incident, until it is
declared over by the Incident Commander, all relevant
communications between the Emergency Operations Center and the
First Response Team will be transmitted via radio, whenever
possible, to the Incident Commander. All other pertinent
communications involving the EOC (interpersonal, telephone, etc.)
will be relayed without delay via radio.
D. During the initial phase of any emergency on plant, the
Guard Station shall serve as the Emergency Operations Center. if,
as emergency control activities progress, it becomes necessary to
relocate the EOC. this will be done at the direction of the
Incident Commander and/or the Emergency Operations Director.

-------
URGENT QUESTIONS OR EMERGENCIES (Continued)
I. General
A. Contacting Safety Staff Off-Plant
1. C.G. Lawrence and Rick Shults are reachable
by long-range belt pagers when they are off-plant.
The pagers are telephone-activated, and programmed
to provide the wearer with the telephone number
he should call to receive a message.
2. To activate one of the pagers, use a touch-tone
phone and dial the appropriate telephone number
for the person whom you want to contact. Wnen
the connection is made, you will hear three quick
beeps. When you hear these beeps, punch in the
telephone number you want to call, Just as you
would dial any phone number. Wait on the line
until you hear another series of beeps, followed
by a busy signal, then hang up. In 60 seconds or
so, the message will be received by the party to
whom you intended it.
3. For example, suppose there was an important message
for C.G. Lawrence while he was off plant. To reach
him, you would call his pager telephone number -
825-0322 (this is a Washington, D.C. phone number),
after the connection is made, you will hear three
quick beeps, followed by silence. During this
silent period, use the telephone on which you're
calling to punch in, i.e. 642-6282. Stay on the
line until you hear another series of beeps
followed by a busy signal, then hang up. Within
a minute or so. the pager on C.G.'s belt will
beep and display the numbers...642-6282. At his
earliest convenience, he will call in for the
message.
*In the event of an emergency incident, simply use "6666" as the
number to be called.
To contact C.G. Lawrence's pager call: 202/825-0322
To contact R.H. Shults' pager call: 202/825-0309
Note: Attempt to contact Safety personnel by belt pager ONLY
when efforts to contact them by phone have failed.

TELEPHONE FAILURE PROCEDURE
I. General
A. Upon outage of any or all Internal communications
capabilities or loss of the main outside telephone link, or both,
this emergency procedure will go into effect.
B. When the telephone system is down, the safety and
security of the plant becomes threatened. Efficiency in
completing the following responsibilities will aid in
re-establishing communications links between critical plant areas.
Once internal communication lines are established, the guard
office, equipped with emergency telephone capabilities, will
function as the plant's main connection to the outside. Use of
this back-up system is reserved exclusively for critical or
emergency communication.
II. Procedure
A. Once it has been established, the internal telephone
system is not fully operational, the guard shall check whether
outside lines are functioning on his regular-use phone.
1. If outside lines are not functioning, the guard
office emergency phone and the following office
phones are permanently connected to the Continental
Telephone system:
a. Guard Office (754-2896)

d. Bldg. 79 pay phone (754-9934)
e. Bldg. 40 pay phone (754-9949)
2. During total phone system failure, eight facility
emergency by-pass phones will automatically tie-in
to the Continental Telephone system. These numbers
are company private and may be used for emergency
traffic only by the assigned user. If the guards
are alerted that the by-pass switch-over did not
occur automatically, the manual override switch
located in the guard office is to be activated.

procedures, utilizing the pager system if
possible, and plant siren to alert First
Response Team personnel.
8. All emergency calls to the outside, including those to
the fire department or hospital, shall be made over the emergency
outside lines as necessary.
-20-
-------
STORM PROCEDURES
I. General
A. Electrical storms, tornadoes, high winds, and other
natural events will occur periodically, and may present hazards to
employees working in energetic areas. This procedure outlines the
steps to be considered (in energetic areas) during the approach or
onset of hazardous environmental conditions.
B. Static build-up and discharge becomes a major safety
concern during severe environmental conditions. The degree of
hazard and the decision to initiate this procedure is the
responsibility of the supervision in charge of each area. Certain
operations will be more susceptible to incident than others.
Responsible supervision is given the task of determining the need
to implement this procedure to the degree necessary to insure
personnel safety.
II. Evacuation of Hazardous Areas
A. Wnenever an electrical storm (or other hazardous natural
event) approaches the near vicinity of the plant, the area
supervision should evacuate personnel from locations containing
energetic materials that may be initiated by lightning or static
discharge.
1. When an electrical storm or other hazardous
weather condition is anticipated, supervision
should give a first alert, whereupon unnecessary
operations will be discontinued.
2. An electrical storm is considered in the "near
vicinity" or imminent when the time between the
lightning flash and the thunder is five seconds
(or less). This will place the flash approximately
one mile from the observer. Although the intensity
of the storm is a direct consideration, it is at
this point that a static hazard exists.
-21-
-------
a. Weather conditions of this type cannot
be correctly evaluated in every instance
by untrained personnel. It may t>«
necessary to contact the Weather Bureau
for storm duration or other additional
information. Both fire trucks have a weather
radio on board. Safety may be contacted
for more information.
b. Where existing or scheduled operations
create exceptional hazards, the area
supervision may arrange for specific
weather warnings to be provided.
3. Areas where evacuation shall be considered during
times of severe weather include:
a. Operations of facilities without approved
lightning protection systems, which contain
energetic materials, and locations within
the immediate vicinity of such facilities.
b. Buildings containing explosive dusts or
vapors whether or not equipped with lightning
protection and locations nearby (grain
finishing, paint operations).
c. Magazines, open storage sites or loading
docks, which are not equipped with lightning
protection, and vehicles containing energetic
materials and locations nearby to such
structures, sites and vehicles.
d. Locations (with or without lightning
protection) where operations involving
electro-explosive devices are being
performed.
e. Rocket Test (Static testing must cease.
However, evacuation of main areas may not
be necessary.).
-22-
-------
4. Once • o«cl»ion to • va.cua.ta it mad«, the area
supervisor is responsible to insure that personnel
are warned and that the appropriate Director is
informed of the decision.
5. For operations requiring constant 'attention,
the decision may be made to continue manning
the operation with a minimum crew consistent
with safety considerations until the operation can
be brought to a condition in which it is safe to
leave without producing hazardous rejected
components or products.
6. Wnen it is decided that personnel should be
evacuated, the operation should be shut down
(when possible, in accordance with normal
equipment shut down procedures. If conditions
warrant, emergency shut down procedures may
need to be implemented.) Windows and doors
should be closed, and electrical switches
thrown to the off position.
7. If the decision to evacuate is made, evacuated
personnel shall go to places at inhabited building
distances from the hazardous location. If this
is not possible, shelter located at intra-line
distances should be sought (e.g. Building 79
for operations in D-5, Mix and Cast, and Grain
Finishing areas). These locations must be
assigned and posted.
8. Personnel in charge of vehicles containing ex-
plosives should, when possible, move the
equipment to locations of comparative safety
before evacuating.
8. Area supervision shall decide when personnel may return
to abandoned operations or facilities.

BOMB THREAT PROCEDURE
I. General
A. Bomb threats are usually received by the receptionists
(or the guards during non-working hours) on a publicly listed
number. These few seconds will probably be our only contact with
the caller; so it is important that any available information be
recorded accurately.
1. There are two essential points of information which
must be obtained. They are:
a. The expected explosion time;
b. The location of the bomb.
B. For investigative purposes, it Is important to find out
as much as possible about the caller. Conversation should be
gently encouraged. The longer the caller is on the phone, the
greater are the chances of tracing him via the telephone company.
Also, by engaging the caller in conversation, we may learn more
about him or her or hear clues that will be useful for later
investigations. This applies not only to the caller's regional
accent or ethnic origin, but also to background noises, such as
the sounds of road repairs, traffic or trains, machinery, music,
conversation, etc.
1. Be careful that you do not upset or panic a bomb
threat caller. Asking too much for too long can make the caller
nervous and cause him to hang up. The essential information is
the time and place of the explosion—get this information and only
then, try to get more.
2. ENCOURAGE THE INDIVIDUAL TO TALK. The longer the
caller can be kept on the line, the better. Keep listening to
everything they say, and pay attention to any background noises.
If the caller remains on the line, ask him why he has planted the
bomb. He may want to talk about some emotional problem,
grievance, or political idea. Your sympathy and interest may hold
the caller on the line long enough for the call to be traced, or
encourage him to give essential information.
-25-

You should complete as much of the following form as quickly as
possible. Give it to the Security Office immediately for their

BOMB THREAT PROCEDURES - ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN
I. General
A. In the event of & bomb threat to any portion of the Pine
Ridge facility, the guard, receptionist, or any other employee who
receives the threat shall contact one of the following who will
act as a coordinate and will be responsible for taking the
appropriate action:
NAME EXTENSION HOME TELEPHONE
Sayre, L. 6425 (703)788-9478
Kirkland, 8. 6065 (703)754-8006
Hostettler, S. 6245 (703)698-8797
Martin, J. 6033 (703)281-3723
Lawrence, C. 6462 (703)253-5684
B. The first of the above people contacted, whether on or
off the plant, will act as coordinator and remain in control
unless they specifically relinquish that responsibility to
another.
1. The coordinator contacted will call the suspected
area and direct those who answer to quickly summon
the highest level of supervision in the area to the
telephone for an urgent message. The supervisor
responding should then be told the nature
of the emergency. In any areas threatened all
employees should be asked to evacuate unless it
is unsafe to do so because of the nature of the
work underway. Employees should note any odd
packages or objects and report them to their super-
visor. The coordinator will designate employee
assembly locations from among the following:
a. Picnic area across from Building 153
b. Building 40. parking lot
-27-
-------
c. Building 77, Mixer Control
d. Building 59, Test Bay
c. Building 24, Change House
f. Building 153. Cafeteria
g. Volleyball Court west of Building 212
h. Any cells in Building 40 designated by
Rocket Assembly supervision on duty.
2. The first supervisor arriving at any designated
evacuation site shall promptly organize a search
of the area to assure that no local hazards
exist. Should anything suspicious be found IT
IS NOT TO BE TOUCHED and the area will be blocked
off immediately and all personnel kept away. The
coordinator shall be informed at once of any such
findings.
c. After arranging for evacuation, the
coordinator will notify the following persons
of the threat:
TELEPHONE NUMBER/EXTENSION
* Plant Security 6483. 6425. 6279
Security Operations Center 6282
State Police - Independent Hill
(Prince Mm. County) (703)791-3101
Warrenton (703)347-323/~
Toll Free for EMERGENCIES ONLY (800)572-4510
D. The coordinator will arrange with area supervision for
detailed search of the evacuated areas under their Jurisdiction.
Those performing the search must be instructed not to touch any
bomb or suspicious item, but to notify the coordinator at once.
If examination, deactivation, or disposal of a bomb or item
suspected to be a bomb becomes necessary, arrangements will be
made by the State Police.
E. If it is determined to the satisfaction of the
coordinator that an area is free from hazard, he will contact that
area's supervision, who may then instruct workers to return to
their normal duties in that area.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES
Introduction
The following Standard Operating Procedures are intended
primarily for use by members of the Gainesville Emergency First
Response Team when responding to and dealing with any of a broad
range of emergencies on the Gainesville facility. Upon
completion, this document will offer four (4) classes of SOPs:
Communications (SOP COMM), Operations (SOP OP), Training (SOP TR)
and Administration (SOP AD). Because emergency incidents are
unpredictable and -- at least in most cases -- unforeseeable, it
is difficult to establish procedures capable of dictating actions
to be taken under all circumstances. Where this is not possible,
we have tried to establish guidelines to be followed during most
emergency incidents. The most basic safety tenets (for example,
the wearing of self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and the
use of the 1 1/2" hoseline on structure fires) must be considered
inviolable. Beyond this, however, there must be room for some
degree of discretion on the part of the Officer In Charge of the
emergency incident, based on the authority granted by the most
basic yet least stated of all Standard Operating Procedures:
"Common Sense Supercedes SOPs".
For those not directly involved in emergency control
activities, as defined in the first portion of the Emergency
Procedures Plan (under "General Statement of Policy"), these
changes are for general information. For those who are directly
involved in emergency activities, these SOPs -- as revised --
will reflect current policy and procedures. As such, it is
imperative that they be carefully read and periodically reviewed.
-29-
-------
SOP-COMM1
EMERGENCY PAGING PROCEDURE
Purpose:
To establish a procedure to be used by the Emergency
Operations Center (EOC) - located in the guard office - to
dispatch the Gainesville First Response Unit to emergencies on
plant.
Scope:
This procedure is to be used to dispatch the First Response
Unit on any and all Emergency Incidents, as defined in the Pine
Ridge Emergency Procedures Manual.
Procedure:
A. Upon receipt of an emergency call or an evacuation alarm
indicator in the guard office, the on-duty guard shall
issue a brief pre-alert over the radio:
1. The pre-alert shall be given before activation of
the "00" page.
2. The pre-alert shall consist of a very brief
announcement of the emergency.
3. The pre-alert announcement shall be made only
once.
B. Immediately following the pre-alert, the guard shall
issue a "00" page to activate pagers of the First Response Team
member.
1. The dispatch of the First Response Team shall also
be brief, consisting only of the location, the
nature of the incident and the fact that the
First Response Team should respond.
a) An example would be: "Building . Injury.
First Response Team respond."
1) Note that it is not necessary (or
acceptable) to dispatch "all first
aiders," or "all fire fighter." The
entire First Response Team shall be
dispatched to all incidents.
-30-
-------
C. Immediately following the first page, the EOC shall
issue a second "00" page, after which the brief dispatch shall be
repeated.
D. After completion of A thru C above, EOC will provide
whatever additional information is available.
-31-
-------
SOP COMM-2
RADIO UNIT DESIGNATIONS
Purpose:
This procedure is intended to clarify the identification of
individuals in emergency operations on the Gainesville facility.
Scope:
This procedure shall affect all those individuals currently
assigned radio equipment (two-way radios and pagers) for use
during emergencies.
Procedure:
A. The radio unit designations listed below apply to the
corresponding individuals at all times,, regardless of the
equipment the inc_vidual is using.
1. For example, if Jim Barlow (Unit 13) is using
the radio from the Brush Truck, he remains Unit
13. Similarly, if Norm Grady (Unit 28) is using
the Fire Pumper, he remains Unit 28.
a. However, when personnel from Maintenance or
Rocket Test who do not normally carry unit
designations are using the brush truck for
whatever reasons, the driver of the brush
truck will assume the radio designation
"Brush 30".
B. The following is a revised list of assigned radio unit
designations (revised 9/88).

SOP COMM-5
SPECIAL DISPATCHING PROCEDURE
Purpose:
This procedure is intended to minimize the occasions when the
First Response Team is dispatched to "false" alarms resulting from
maintenance work on telephone lines within the plant.
Scope:
This procedure is intended to augment SOP COMM-1, "Emergency
Paging Procedure", and is to be implemented only at the expressed
direction of the Safety Department, or, in the absence of a
representative of the Safety Department, by the Director of
Production.
Procedure:
A. Upon notification by whatever source that
maintenance/repair work is being performed on the phone lines in
an area of the plant, the guard staff shall so notify a
representative of the Safety Department, who shall then determine
whether or not to implement this procedure, and to what degree.
B. When an automatic evacuation alarm sounds in a targeted
area, the on-duty guard shall call the contact number in that area
to determine the validity of the alarm.
1 . The guard shall allow three rings only. If the phone
is not answered within three rings, the alarm will be
assumed to be real, and the normal dispatching procedure
shall be implemented.
2. If the telephone is answered within three rings, the
guard shall ask the person on the other end: "Is an
alarm sounding in your building?"
a) If the answer is in the affirmative, or if the
guard can hear the alarm in the background, he will
immediately implement the usual emergency
notification/dispatching procedure.

protective clothing, less breathing apparatus
for the duration of the practical portion of
the training evolution.
e. Training fires shall routinely be fueled with
kerosene obtained from the drum near the
training pad. On occasion, special provisions
may be made to train on Class A fires. At no
time, however, shall highly volatile fuels
such as gasoline be approved for use at the
training facility.
1) Prior to the addition of kerosene, the
containment drum on the training pad
shall be filled with 15-20 gallons of
water.
2) Only the minimum amount of kerosene
necessary to provide an adequate training
fire shall be added to the water in the
containment drum. Under most circum-
stances, one (1) quart should suffice.
At no time shall more than four (4)
quarts of kerosene be added to the drum.
f. Only the Instructor shall be permitted t c
ignite the training fire.
1 ) The Instructor should use a road flare or
other similar extremely hot ignition
source to ignite the training fire.
g. It shall be the responsibility of the
Assistant Instructor to refill the portable
fire extinguishers used in the training
evolutions, as they are emptied.
h. Following the final extinguishment evolutions,
the fire shall be re-ignited and permitted to
burn until all of the fuel is consumed. The
stand-by Fire Brigade team shall remain at the
training facility until this burning is
completed.

LIST OF EQUIPMENT ON FIRE TRUCK
-------
LOCATION OF EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT
Emergency equipment for hazardous material incidents is not
pre-staged and is stored on the fire trucks and in the fire house
(building 36). Portable fire extinguishers around the plant are
not to be used by plant personnel for hazardous material
incidents. This policy is required by new OHSA regulations on
training for hazardous material incident responders. Only members
of the first response unit have the appropriate training to
adequately respond to chemical emergencies. In addition, portable
fire extinguishers would not be effective in most explosive and
propellant fires, and special response technics are required.
The emergency equipment that will be utilized in chemical
emergencies, including all hazardous waste material response are
listed on the following pages. The materials are stored on the
two firetrucks, wagon 30 and brush 30, and in the firehouse
(building 36) as indicated on the following pages. Note that the
materials include spare equipment so that in the event some
equipment is damaged or consumed during a response, the first
response unit still has adequate equipment to response to other
incidents until equipment can be replaced. In this regard the
equipment should not be considered the minimum necessary for
operation but rather the stock usually maintained to insure
adequate reserves for multiple incidents before replacement
equipment arrives.

APPENDIX S
NOTIFICATION OF UST CLOSURE SAMPLE RESULTS
-------
GROUNDWATER
TECHNOLOGY. INC.
08 March 1990
Mr. Larry Johnson
Virginia Water Control Board
5515 Cherokee Avenue
Suite 404
Alexandria, VA 22312
RE: Notification of UST Closure Sample Results
Dear Mr. Johnson,
This letter
is
f
to
document my telephone conversation with Mr.
Frank Jacobeen of the Virginia Water Control Board, with whom I
spoke in your absence on March 1, 1990. During this conversation,
GTI provided the Virginia Water Control Board with the results of
underground storage tank (UST) removal closure samples.
On January 2, 1990; GTI removed a 1000-gallon UST from the
Atlantic Research Corporation (ARC) Facility in Gainesville,
Virginia. During removal of the tank, a small amount of liquid
hydrocarbons was released from the tank to the pit. Upon removal
of the tank, a hydrocarpon film was visible on the surface of the
water in the pit.
Ms. Anna Fix of GTI spoke with you on January 2, 1990
concerning the UST removal and the hydrocarbon film. She was
advised to collect the closure samples and to notify your office
within 24 hours of receipt of sample results. GTI has taken action
to absorb the hydrocarbons from the surface of the water in the
excavation pit. However, the closure samples were collected
through this water and it is suspected that contact of the sampling
apparatus with the hydrocarbons on the water surface may have
elevated the sample concentrations.
The sample results are summarized below. Copies of the
laboratory analysis are provided as Enclosure 1. The Total
Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) results range from 102 ppm to 1600 ppm.
The laboratory analysis of soil samples collected at the base of
the excavation pit on the north and south sides indicated TPH
levels of 102 ppm and 1600 ppm, respectively. Laboratory analysis
of soil samples collected at the depth of groundwater on the east
and west sides of the excavation pit indicated TPH levels of 243
ppm and 1340 ppm, respectively.
At this time, the hydrocarbon film on the water surface of the
excavated pit has been greatly reduced from that present at the
time of closure sampling. Since the condition of the water in the
tank pit has changed significantly, GTI recommended in our phone
conversation of March 1, 1990 that a second round of samples be

collected. The second set of samples are expected to be more
r-epresen tative of soil quality in the area of the tank pit. Mr.
Frank Jacobeen verbally approved the additional sampling which was
performed on Monday, March 5.
Samples were collected at the base of the tank pit
'approximately 5 to 6 feet depth) through the water in the tank pit
in a similar manner to the original samples. However, since the
hydrocarbons on the water surface have been significantly reduced,
it is believed that the sample results will be more representative.
^hese samples were collected on tne north and south sides of the
tank pit.
Samples were collected at the depth of groundwater
(approximately 1 to 2 feet) at locations 5 feet east of the pit
( downgradien t ) and 10 feet west (upgradient) of the pit (see
Enclosure 2). These samples were collected outside the tan« pit
in order to eliminate contact of the sampling apparatus with the
water surface of the tank pit.
If the TPH results of these samoles are less than 100 ppm, GTI
recommt. ds closure of the tank pit. Sample analyses will be
expedited and results are anticipated to be available the week of
March 12, 1990. GTI will contact your office upon receipt of
samp 1 e *-esu 1 ts .
Please contact me with any questions or comments you may have
r-egarding this correspondence.

Dear Mr. Kirkland:
The staff of the Department of Air Pollution Control has reviewed the
request of September 12, 1988 from Melisa T. Cohen for the elimination of
ambient air sampling from the sampling procedures at the beryllium rocket
propellant laboratory and test firing facility in Prince William County.
The request is approved.
Accordingly, the Department of Air Pollution Control (formally State
Air Pollution Control Board) permit of June 27, 1986 is amended as follows
1. Delete Part I - Specific Condition Number 6.
2. Amend Part I - Specific Condition Number 11 to read:
"11. Upon request of the Board, continuous emission
monitors will be installed and operated in accordance
with the monitoring plan to measure and record the
atmospheric concentrations of the beryllium emitted
from the rocket propellent laboratory and test firing
facility. Monitors will be maintained and calibrated
in accordance with methods and procedures acceptable
to the Board.
(Section 120-06-04 of State Regulations)"

MEMORANDUM
TO: Bob Lynch
FROM: Melisa Cohen
SUBJECT: Monthly Environmental Inspections of the KEW 2.5 Facility
June 1987
The monthly environmental inspection of the KEW 2.5 facility was
conducted on June 30, 1987. At the time of the inspection, the project was
in full compliance with the environmental permit requirements.
Stack sampling has now been commenced with facility operations. The
initial five days of sampling for the facility/Bofors Tank stack has been
completed and routine bi-monthly sampling will now be required. The high altitude
tank has at this time, been stack sampled once. The results of the sampling
have shown undetectable beryllium emissions thus far.
The training of the KEW personnel who will be conducting the sampling
has now been completed. Full responsibility for the sampling and completion of
the test report, which must be sent to the EPA, will be given to this personnel
as soon as the SOP and new test report booklets are completed. I will continue
to be available for any environmental support needed with this activity. I do
recommend that sufficient materials for the stack sampling operation be procured,
particularily the glassware so that operations will not be held up due to an
incomplete sampling train.
A few sampling requirement issues still need to be resolved. Mike
Young and I will be meeting with the Air Board to investigate the possibility
of using an alternative beryllium analysis method, as well as to discuss what
actual ambient air sampling requirements are. A meeting between KEW 2.5 management
and the Environmental Department needs to be scheduled sometime in July to discuss
the samplirfg of the high altitude stack requirements.
