Avtex personnel have identified certain areas within the Avtex facilityshowing contamination by polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) resulting primarilyfrom sudden and unplanned failure of an electrical transformer. PCBs werepopular from the 1930's through the 1960'• for insulating use in electriccapacitors and transformances. They are both chemically and biologicallystable and are very poor conductors of electricity. In high concentrations,PCBs form an oily liquid heavier than water and are not readily dissolved inwater. They also have an affinity for organic matter that helps explain theirbehavior in the environment, particularly in water. According to the VirginiaDepartment of Health, PCBs are everywhere in the environment. Surveys ofambient air, soil, food, surface water and sediments, as well as human fat,blood, and milk have demonstrated measurable levels of PCBs.

Presence of PCBs on the Avtex site has been confirmed by the Virginia StateWater Control Board (SWCB) by its analysis of samples collected onAugust 28, 1989 and September 1, 1989. On September 20, 1989 the VirginiaDepartment of Waste Management (VDWM) requested an evaluation of the Avtexsite and possible assistance from USEPA to address the possible contaminationat the site. In response to this request, USEPA determined that thecompressor room roof and the polyester plant area at the site may pose athreat to public health, welfare or the environment.

In addition to acknowledgement of the presence of measurable levels of PCBs atthe Avtex facility, the USEPA has stated that a number of solvent-containingdrums may pose a potential threat for fire or explosion. The USEPA alsoidentified several process areas where certain hazardous substances may bepresent and could pose a potential threat of release.

Therefore, based on (1) a potential threat to worker health from exposure toPCBs on the site; (2) the potential for offsite migration of PCBs; (3) a fireor explosion potential from solvent"containing drums; and (4) potentialunidentified hazards from other facility process operation, the USEPA has

Page 3: AR 1001*55 - semspub.epa.gov

determined that a removal action is appropriate to abate, minimise, stabilize,mitigate, or eliminate the releases or threat of releases.

SECTION 4

SITE HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN

4.1 PURPOSE

The purpose of this plan is to describe the measures to be implemented at theAvtex site necessary to eliminate the threat to public health, welfare, or theenvironment due to potential exposure to hazardous substances, the potentialfor off site migration of hazardous substances, and the potential for fire,explosion, or spillage of waste from drums.

Any entry onto a site potentially containing hazardous materials must be madewith caution. A safety plan for work performed in response to this Order(Docket No. 111-90-01-DC) has been developed to ensure that all the hazards ofthe site are evaluated prior to entry. The Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration requires that a written safety plan be present on site and thatall personnel working on the site have read and understood the plan.

Because of the fact that the Avtex site includes an operating manufacturingfacility and because of the significant number of individual projectscontractors involved in removal activities, the focus of this safetymanagement plan is to define clearly those areas of the Avtex propertyinvolved in removal or assessment activities and to ensure that procedures arein place for segregating those areas and defining where possible, anypotential hazards in those areas. Individual contractors have been,maderesponsible for their own safety plans, and these are included in Appendix Gof this work plan.

Access to the compressor room roof is through the turbine room downthe stairs located in the northwest and southeast corners of theroom to the ground level and to the exterior of the building.

The Substation 1A, and polyester dock areas are already outside ofthe plant buildings.

Access to each manhole is through the manhole access cover opening.In these cases, climb the ladder to ground level.

The two drum storage areas are immediately adjacent to large openloading docks, and to normal marked exits. Leave these sitesthrough the opening furthest away from the hazard. All exits leadto the exterior of the plant.

In all cases, once outside of all plant buildings, proceed to themain gate via the perimeter road in the direction furthest from thehazard •

Egress from storm sewer manholes is limited, therefore everyprecaution must be taken to strictly limit the number of workers ineach manhole.

Safety plans for individual contractors are included as Appendix Gof this work plan.

5.7.2 Storage Site Security : .1*' ' '•'-. '.• <*-'

The site security plan will be followed.

* The drum storage and the drum disposal areas are contained inconcrete floor steel frame masonry buildings and are barricaded andposted with yellow caution tape.

In the event that outside fire fighting help is requested, securethe gate and permit only fire, emergency, police, and fullyidentified volunteers onto plant property.

5.7.3 Site Fire Protection

Sites are equipped with sprinklers.

* Three hose houses with hydrants are adjacent to each area (a totalo f seven). . : • > • •

The two areas are separated by approximately 1/2 mile of plantbuilding so it is highly unlikely that a fire at one site.wouldspread to the other.

Both storage areas are in one story buildings which are used for noother purpose, and are not normal passage ways.

* No smoking is allowed in either storage area or outside of the areasor adjacent to the areas* '••

Both buildings are of steel frame-masonry construction.

Easy access is possible both by road and by walkway, into bothareas.

Both areas are at the 1st floor level.

5.8 HAZARDOBS* COMMUNICATIONS ^

5*8*1 Fire in the drum storage area or in the drum disposal area mayinvolve used lubricating oil and therefore may be very hot andvolatile.

5.8*2 Drums in these areas have been sampled but are awaiting analysisbefore disposal. All fires therefore may involve the combustion ofunknown and potentially hazardous materials.

Page 47: AR 1001*55 - semspub.epa.gov

of these areas are on fire, call the Front Royal Fire Department at 911immediately, then call the normal plant call list.

5.5 PROJECT SUMMARY

To eliminate the threat to public health, welfare, or the environment, due topotential exposure to hazardous substances, the potential for off sitemigration of hazardous substances, and the potential for fire, explosion, orspillage of waste from drums, the material and containers must be assembled,identified and properly removed from the site. Methods and procedures aregiven in individual project work plans.

5.6 SAFETY MANAGEMENT

5.6.1 The Site Safety and Health Plan vill be followed.

5.6*2 Fire fighting by Avtex personnel will be limited to flamesuppression and preservation of adjacent structures. Actual firefighting at these sites will be by trained members of the FrontRoyal Volunteer Fire Department.

5.2.3 Site Location

The Avtex Site i* located on the south side of Kendrick lane in Front Royal,Virginia. The site is bordered by Kendrick Lane on the north, a wooded areaon the east, West Main Street and Luray Avenue on the south, and the southfork of the Shenandoah river on the west. The site contains approximately 400acres.

5.2.4 Direction* to Site

Front Royal is serviced by interstate route 66, and by state routes 55, and340. Interstate route 66 has exits onto routes 55 east of Front Royal andonto route 340 north of the town. Route 55 west combines with rout 340 tobecome Royal Avenue; the major north/south road in Front Royal. Turning westonto 6th Street will lead directly into Kendrick Lane and to the Avtex Site.

5.2.5 Site History

Manufacturing of rayon fiber began at the Front Royal site in 1940 under theAmerican Viscose Corporation. Ownership was transferred to the FMCCorporation in 1963 (as the American Viscose Division of FMC Corporation andsubsequently the Fibers Division of FMC Corp.) In August 1976 Avtex Fiberswas formed from the fibers plants in that division. Approximately 300 workersare employed at the site. The principal product is rayon yarn for thecarbonizing industry*

5.2.6 Site Description

The Avtex Site consists of an approximately 400 acre fenced plant facilitysouth of Kendrick lane in Front Royal, Virginia. The Site is located on thesouth side of Kendrick lane in Front Royal, Virginia. The site is bordered byKendrick Lane on the north, a wooded area on the east, West Main Street andLuray Avenue on the south, and the south fork of the Shenandoah river on thewest.

The plant itself i* a steel framed, red brick building covering approximately62 acres of the site. Warehouse space and space for the polyester plant areprovided by green metal clad steel frame structures adjacent to and north ofthe original plant.

All drum storage areas are inside of plant buildings within the plantperimeter fence.

SECTION 5

, FIRE PROTECTION PLAN FOR DRUM .• STORAGE AND DISPOSAL AREA

5.1 PURPOSE

Because the Avtex Site contains a manufacturing operation which has beenreduced in scope by approximately 85%, many areas of the plant are nowabandoned. Lubrication supplies, cleaning supplies, and manufacturingsupplies in these areas are now waste. To eliminate the threat to publichealth, welfare, or the environment, due to potential exposure to hazardoussubstances, the potential for off site migration of hazardous substances, andthe potential for fire, explosion, or spillage of waste from drums, thematerial and containers must be assembled, identified and properly removedfrom the site.

Any entry onto a site potentially containing hazardous materials must be madewith caution. A safety plan for work performed in response to this order(Docket No. 111-90-01-DC) has been developed to ensure that all the hazards ofthe site are evaluated prior to entry. The Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration requires that a written safety plan be present on site and thatall personnel working on the site have read and understood the plan.

Because of the fact that the Avtex site includes an operating manufacturingfacility and because of the significant number of individual contractorsinvolved in removal activities, the focus of this safety management plan is todefine clearly those areas of the Avtex property involved in removal orassessment activities and to ensure that procedures are in place forsegregating those areas and defining where possible, any potential hazards inthose areas* Individual contractors have been made responsible for their ownsafety plans, and these are included in Appendix G to this plan.

Because the majority of the materials found are fuels, it is imperative thatevery reasonable precaution be taken to avoid the possibility of fire. If afire does occur, to avoid possible'threat to the general public, employees,and contractors of exposure to potentially hazardous materials, the provisionsof this plan must be followed. "-•''••'

SAMPLINfl AND ANALYSIS PLAN

AVTEX FIBERSFRONT ROYAL. VIRGINIA

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Avtex Fibers Site, located in Front Royal, Virginia, containsapproximately one thousand drums containing various chemicalsubstances including waste lubricating oil, acids and unknowns.This sampling and analysis plan details the methods chemical WasteManagement will use for collection and analysis of the drummedsubstances. These substances will ba characterized forcompatibility, consolidated and classified for off-site disposal.2.0 SMtPLINO PLAN

2.1 ORGANIZATION

Sample collection will be performed by CWM and/or itssubcontractors. One drum sampling team will be required for thisproject. This team will consist of a sampling supervisor and twosampling technicians. The sampling personnel will report throughthe sampling supervisor to the CWM Project Manager. Technicalguidance and support will be provided via a dotted line report tothe ENRAC Technical Manager. Tha sampling team will be responsiblefor tha collection, fingerprint characterization and documentationof all drummed waste samples. Their responsibilities will alsoinclude the shipment of samples for off-site analysis.2.2 SAMPLE COLLECTION

CWM will sample each drum at the Avtex Fibers site for the purposesof characterizing and consolidating the drummed substances for off-site treatment/disposal. This section describes the protocols CWMintends to use for sampling at the Avtex Fibers site. Specific CWMprotocols for tha sampling of drummed materials can be found inAttachment A.

A discrete sample of each staged drum will ba collected andcharacterized via fingerprint analysis (Sea section 4.0). Basedon tha results of this analysis and previous knowledge of the drumcontents, compatible drums will be composited for furthertreatment/disposal analysis. For those drums which are clearlymarked and for which the contents are previously known, onecomposite sampla par group of 20 drums will ba prepared. Forunmarked drums* one composite sample per group of 10 drums will bemade.

Site specific sampling protocols for unanticipated environmentalor wasta sampling will be submitted as the need arises.

2.3 SAMPLE CONTAINERS. PRESERVATION AND HOLDINO TIMES

Figure 2-1 is a listing of required sample containers, preservationtechniques and holding times for all analytical parameters whichmay be associated with the Avtex Fibers site. Also included in thetable are the required volumes and number of containers for eachparameter and matrix. Sample containers, preservatives, volumes,and holding times will vary with organic drum samples due toobvious incompatabilities. Typically organic drum samples will becollected in 1/2 pint or pint wide mouth glass jars with teflonlined lids. These samples may or may not be cooled until aftereach composite is made. All sampling containers will be obtainedfrom a commercially available source of EPA-approved samplecontainers.

2.4 8AMPLINQ EQUIPMENT DECONTAMINATION

Due to the nature of tha drummed substances expected at the AvtexFibers site (i.e. high concentrations of organic material) it isanticipated that disposable sampling equipment will be used.However, in the event that sampling equipment is to be reused, thedecontamination methods described in this section will be utilizedto minimize cross-contamination between sampling events.BULK LOADS/DRUMS OP 8QLID3 OR WASTE PILES REQUIRING METALS.CYANIDE. 5ULPIDB AND/OR GENERAL SCREENING ANALYZES.

Page 79: AR 1001*55 - semspub.epa.gov

3.0 SAMPLE CUSTODY AND DOCUMENTATION

CWM will institute sample custody procedures at the Avtex FibersSite to ensure the integrity of the sample from time of collectionto analysis. The components of the sample c4. Custody procedurewill be sample labels, field logbooks and chain of custody records.The procedures for their use, is described as follows.3 • 1 SAMPLE LABELS : ,,

Sample labels will be affixed to sample containers prior to thetime of sampling. Sample labels will include the followinginformation:

OS ample Identification NumberOName of Sampler '. . ..'.•,"ODate and Time of SamplingOSampling Location©Preservative .OSample Type (i.e. - Grab or Composite)

All sample labels will be completed in black indelible ink.

3.2 CAMPLE LOG BOOKS

All information pertinent to field sampling will be recorded inlogbooks . Separate log books will be kept for each of thefollowing sample types:

ODrum Samples "

Each of these notebooks will be bound and contain consecutivelynumbered 8 1/2" x 11" pages. Entries in each notebook will be madein black indelible ink and will include the following:

OSample Identification NumberOSample Location -tOField ObservationsONumber and Volumes of Samples TakenOSample Type t •©Preservatives Used©Analysis RequestedODate /Time of Sampling©Sampler Name(s) >

3.3 CHAIN OF CUSTODY RECORD

To establish the documentation necessary to trace sample possessionfrom the time of collection, a chain of custody record (Figure 3-2) will be completed and will accompany every sample. Whentransferring the possession of samples, the transferee will signand record the date of transfer on the chain of custody, tacord.

10

Page 80: AR 1001*55 - semspub.epa.gov

Tha parson taking custody of the sample will raconcila theinformation on tha chain of custody record with that on tha samplelabel before signing and dating tha chain of custody. Tha originalchain of custody records will accompany tha sample and a copy willbe placed in the project file.

In addition, any samples sent to off-site laboratories by CWM willbe accompanied by a Sample Analysis Request Form (Figure 3-3).The usa of this form ensures that tha receiving laboratory has beennotified of pending sample shipment and provides additionalinformation as to the source of tha samples.3.4 SAMPLE PACKAGING AND SHIPPING

All samples requiring shipment to off-sita laboratories, will beshipped in accordance with appropriate DOT regulations.

Samples collected at tha Avtex Fibers Sita will, for the purposesof packaging and shipping, be considered hazardous substancesamples and will be transported according to the followingrequirements:a If tha hazardous substance in the sample is known or can ba

identified, tha sample will be packaged, labeled and shippedaccording to the specific instructions for tha material (ifit is listed) in the DOT Hazardous Materials Table (49 CFR172.101).

O If tha hazardous substance in the sample is unknown, 49 CFR172.402 (h) allows for the designation of hazard class basedon the shippers knowledge of the material and the selectionof the appropriate hazard class from 49 CFR 173.2 (as listedin Figure 3-4). CWM will, generally, ship hazardous samplesof unknown content as "Flammable Liquid" or "Flammable Solid"if tha hazard classification listed above these on Figure 3-4 (i.e. radioactive material, Poison A, flammable/non-flammable gas) can be eliminated. Sample categories listedbalow flammable liquid/solid on Figure 3-4 will generally notbe considered sinca classifying substances into thesecategories requires flashpoint testing (which is not requiredof most samples from this sita)*

Thus, unless tha sample is known to consist of material listedbalow flammable liquid/solid on Figure 3-4, it is considereda flammable liquid/solid and shipped as such.
