Site Background and Operational History Sample Clauses

Site Background and Operational History. The Interchem site is a former pesticide formulating facility with a 12-year operating history from 1976 to 1988. Two pesticide formulation companies operated at the site:. (1) Silak (1976-1980), which .also operated under the names Interchem, Inc. (1980-1984), and WHB Specialty Products (1984-1987); and (2) XxXxxx Industries, Inc. (1987-1988). The Interchem site primarily consists of the Main Building, which housed an office; storage areas for raw materials and finished products; packaging and blending areas; a liquid processing area; and a hazardous waste storage area. The Toxaphene Pad, located adjacent to 1st Avenue, approximately 150 feet south of 10th Street, was formerly part of a warehouse foundation used for storage of formulation products. On the east side of 1st Avenue, west of the railroad tracks, there are seven above-ground storage tanks (tanks) formerly used to store diluents and liquids related to pesticide formulation. Two wooden sheds used to store pesticide formulation materials and containers were located north of the tanks. In May 1976, a theatre adjacent to the Interchem site caught on fire. The fire spread and destroyed an Interchem site warehouse located on the southwest corner of 10th Street and 1st Avenue in Xxxxx. The facility was closed for one month after the fire and then reopened. In February 1977, another fire occurred at the Interchem site, destroying the quonset located at the northeast corner of 00xx Xxxxxx and 1st Avenue. In June 1981, a chemical spill of dimethoate, an organophosphate pesticide, occurred at the Interchem site. The 2- to 3-gallon spill was a result of container crushing operations at the site. Lime was used to cover the spill and neutralize the dimethoate by base hydrolysis. The spill was reported to have caused a persistent and obnoxious odor in the vicinity of the site. Early in 1983, a spill of toxaphene occurred on a concrete pad south of the office area. Soil samples taken from the toxaphene spill area prior to cleanup contained up to 110,000 parts per million (ppm). The company conducted some initial cleanup efforts in April 1983, reducing toxaphene levels in the soil to 5,500 ppm. In November 1983, a second clean-up action reduced levels to 120 ppm in soil. In June 1984, EPA conducted a Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) compliance evaluation inspection at Interchem to determine compliance with RCRA interim status regulations. The inspection determined that nine 55-gallon drums of xylene an...
