Part IV- Waste Management Plan

Airtek Project 05-0701— Rev 1, September 16, 2005
four grab samples of each distinct painted non-porous building component (based on
paint color, building component type and zone in which the component is located) will be
collected for TCLP RCRA metals analysis. Each grab sample will be collected as a core
sample (i.e., both painted surface and building component matrix) and sent to the lab
under COC for analysis.
Likewise, cleaned, painted, non-porous deconstruction waste with TCLP RCRA metals
results of less than applicable standards would also be classified, managed and
recycled/disposed of as non-hazardous C&D debris.
Cleaned, painted, non-porous deconstruction waste with TCLP RCRA metals results
greater than applicable standards would be classified, managed and disposed of as
hazardous waste with the toxicity characteristic of the exceeded RCRA Characteristic.
Cleaned, unpainted, non-porous deconstruction waste will be visually inspected by the
Environmental Consultant, and may be recycled and/or disposed as C&D waste if TCLP
metals analyses of surface dust wipes meet RCRA criteria for disposal. The
Environmental Consultant will make determinations on representativity of waste
sampling based on the quantity and nature of such wastes encountered. In general, the
protocols followed for representavity other site waste sampling, and as described in
Section 6.0 will be followed.
Non-cleaned, non-porous deconstruction waste will be disposed of as asbestos waste at a
minimum for the reasons indicated previously. Should results of the settled dust
classification sampling indicate that the dust results exceed the regulatory threshold for
one or more RCRA characteristics, the waste will be managed as both a RCRA waste of
the appropriate waste code as well as asbestos waste.
8.0 Waste Packaging
Due to space restrictions (i.e., requirement that a waste storage facility be located 15
meters (50 feet) from a property line), waste will be not be stored on the site.
Incompatible waste streams will be segregated and handled as separate operations at
separate times. All containers on site will have proper labeling, which includes
information such as waste type and accumulation date.
8.1 Hazardous Waste
Hazardous waste will be placed in containers (e.g., USDOT approved drums,
bags, roll-off containers) and transferred to the waste decon for immediate off-site
disposal. While being accumulated on-site, each container shall be labeled or
marked clearly with the words, "Hazardous Waste". Containers will be inspected
to ensure containers are not over packed or leaking. Hazardous waste will not be
placed in an unwashed container that previously held an incompatible waste. Any
disposal container holding a hazardous waste that is incompatible with any waste
or other materials contained nearby will be separated from the other materials or
protected from them by means of a dike, berm, wall, or other device.
