CONTAINER STORAGE 1 & 2

SITE DESCRIPTION
This is an active site, and therefore is not eligible for Installation Restoration Program funds. HWAAP-D01 & D02, non-reactive and reactive/explosive hazardous waste storage areas, have been active since 1982. Building 106-22 and 106-23 (Area 1) were used to store non-explosive hazardous wastes pending proper disposal by the Defense Logistics Agency. Building 113-73A and 115-9 (Area 2) were used to store reactive/explosive contaminated waste. These buildings were designated as hazardous waste storage facilities on the installation's RCRA Part B Permit. The Area 1 building is 50 by 200 ft and is in excess of 15 feet high. The Area 2 building is 50 by 100 by 15 ft. The wastes stored at Area 1 are deactivation furnace ash, empty cresylic acid drums, trichlorofluoroethene, malathion, solvent rags, phosphoric acid, dry cleaning solvent, sodium hydroxide, chromium trioxide, corrosion-preventive compound, paint sludge, empty cyclohexamine drums and PCP dust. The wastes stored at Area 2 are reactive waste.

PROPOSED PLAN
This site is considered Response Complete under the Installation Restoration Program, and current/future action will be managed under the Part B Permit.
