D. JOHNSON April 15, 1993 BAKERSFIELD,93301 FIRE CHIEF 326-3911 Kalpakoff Construction c/o Abe Kalpakoff 3223 Brittan Road Bakersfield, CA 93308 Dear Mr. Kalpakoff, When you filed bankruptcy in 1990, we inadvertently removed your business plan and inventory, and placed your file as "no longer in business". In discussion with Dave Kalpakoff at your facility on April 13, 1993, it was decided that we would reactivate the old plan and send it to you for review and update, instead of filing a new business plan. The computer generated business plan is attached. Please review this plan and make any corrections, additions or deletions and return it to this office by May 10, 1993. We have also enclosed blank inventory forms in case changes to your inventory are necessary. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION ~ LINDE DIVISION UNION CARBIDE CANADA LIMITED O LINDE DIVISION Copyright ~ 1985 Union Carbide Corporation Page 1 of 4 PRODUCT: · Argon L-4563-B ,__~ ~,~ June 1985 THRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE .._/ The ACGIH 1984-85 recommended limit for welding fume, not otherwise classified (NOC), is 5mg/m3. TLV-TWA's should be used as a guide in the control of health hazards and not as fine lines between safe and dangerous concentrations. See Section VI for specific fume constituents which may modify this TLV-TWA. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE AND EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES working with welding and cutting may create one or more of the following health hazards: ' FUMES AND GASES can be dangerous to your health and may cause serious lung disease.* ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill you. ARC RAYS can injure eyes and burn skin. NOISE can damage hearing. This gas is an asphyxiant. Moderate concentrations can cause headache, drowsiness, dizziness and unconsciousness. Lack of oxygen can cause death. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe fumes and gases caused by the process. Use enough ventilation, local exhaust, or both to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and the general area. The type and amount of fumes and gases depend on the equipment and supplies used. Possibly dangerous materials may be found in fluxes, coatings, gases, metals etc. Get a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for every material used. Air samples can be used to find out what respir.atory protection is needed. Do not touch live electrical parts. Wear correct ear, eye, and body protection. Short term overexposure to fumes may result in discomfort such as dizziness, nausea, or dryness or irritation of nose, throat, or eyes. MIXTURES: When two or more gases, or liquefied gases are mixed, their hazardous properties may combine to create additional, unexpected hazards. Obtain and evaluate the safety information for each component before you produce the mixture. Consult an ~--" Industrial Hygienist, or other trained person when you make your safety evaluation of the end product. Remember, gases and liquids have properties which can cause serious injury or death. A detailed description of the Health Hazards and their consequences may be. found in Linde's free publication "Precautions and Safe Practices for Electric Welding and Cutting," L52-529. You may obtain copies from your local supplier, or by writing to Union Carbide Corporation, Linde Division, Communications Department, 39 Old Ridgebury Road, Danbury, Connecticut, 06817-0001. FIRST AID IN CASE OF EMERGENCY -- Call for medical aid. Employ First Aid techniques recommended by the American Red Cross. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT give oxygen. Call a physician. IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK disconnect and turn off power. IF NOT BREATHING, begin artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If no detectable pulse, begin external heart massage. Immediately call a physician. IN CASE OF ,ARC BURN call a physician. *NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Acute -- Gases, fumes, and dusts may cause irritation to the eyes, lungs, nose, and throat. Some toxic gases associated with welding and related processes may cause pulmonary edema, asphyxiation, and death. Acute overexposure may include signs and symptoms such as watery eyes, nose and throat irritation, headache, dizziness, difficulty breathing, frequent coughing, or chest pains. Chronic ~ Protracted inhalation of air contaminants may lead to their accumulation in the lungs, a condition which may be seen as dense areas on chest x-rays. The severity of change is proportional to the length of exposure. The changes seen are not necessarily associated with symptoms or signs of reduced lung function or disease. In addition, the changes on x-rays may be caused by non-work related factors such as smoking, etc. Page 2 of 4 °PRODUCT: Argon L-4563-B - ~ June 1985 ~,'.~ ?: i'~ ~- ~,~,~ ... ~: ?,~' ~--?.~.~ ,_~ ,~-~.? :~? ~;~:~:~*~,~'~ ? ................................... , .................. ~ .~.¥~ .~ .~ ?..?. ~% ~ ~ ..~ .~?~. ~ ~,~ ~,.:. -..' .., ....

X INCOMPATIBILITY (materials to avoid) None currently known. Argon is chemically inert. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS Ozone and Nitrogen Oxides may be formed by the radiation from the arc. See Section IV. Other decomposition products of normal operation originate from the volatilization, reaction or oxidation of the material being worked. HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION CONDITIONS TO AVOID May Occur Will not Occur None currently known. X STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED Argon is an asphyxiant. Evacuate all personnel from danger area. Use self contained breathing apparatus where needed. Shut off cylinder if without risk. Ventilate area of leak or move cylinder to well ventilated area. Test area, especially confined areas, for sufficient oxygen content prior to permitting re-entry of personnel. WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Slowly release into atmosphere. Discard any product, residue, disposable container or liner in an environmentally acceptable manner in full compliance with Federal, State and local regulations. Page 3 of 4 'PRODUCT: Argon L-4563-B June 1985 RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (specify type) -- Use respirable fume respirator or air supplied respirator when working in confined space or where local exhaust or ventilation does not keep exposure below TLV. Select as per OSHA29 CFR1910.134. LOCAL EXHAUST -- Use enough ventilation, local exhaust or both, to keep the fumes and gases below TLV's in the worker's breathing zone and the general area. Train the worker to keep his head out of the fumes. MECHANICAL (general) ALWAYS WORK WITH ENOUGH VENTILATION VENTILATION SPECIAL - Avoid using electric arcs in the presence of chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors - highly toxic phosgene may be produced. Avoid arc operations on parts with phosphate residues (anti-rust, cleaning preparations) - highly toxic phosphine may be produced. OTHER Depends on specific use conditions, and location. Use adequate ventilation or personal respiratory protection. See Section IX and OSHA29 CFR1910.252. PROTECTIVE GLOVES Welding gloves recommended EYE PROTECTION -- Wear a helmet or use a face shield with a filter lens selected as per ANSI Z49.1. Provide protective screens and flash goggles, if necessary, to protect others. Select as per OSHA29 CFR1910.133. OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT -- As needed, wear hand, head, and body protection which help to prevent injury from radiation, sparks and electrical shock. See ANSI Z49.1. At a minimum this includes welder's gloves and a protective face shield, and may include arm protectors, aprons, hats, shoulder protection, as well as dark substantial clothing. Train the worker not to touch li~ electrical pa~s. Fumes and gases cannot be classified simply. The composition and quantity of both are dependent upon the metal being worked, the process, procedure and electrodes used. Other conditions which also influence the composition and quantity of the fumes and gases to which workers may be exposed include: coatings on the metal being worked (such as paint, plating, or galvanizing), the number of workers and the volume of the work area, the quality and amount of ventilation, the position of the worker's head with respect to the fume plume, as well as the presence of contaminants in the atmosphere (such as chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors from cleaning and degreasing activities). One recommended way to determine the composition and quantity of fumes and gases to which workers are exposed is to take an air sample from inside the worker's helmet if worn or in the worker's breathing zone.

UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION U LINDE DIVISION UNION CARBIDE CANADA LIMITED ~ LINDE DIVISION Copyright ~ 1985 Union Carbide Corporation Page I of 4 PRODUCT: Oxygen L-4638-A ~ September 1985 THRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE: None currently established. EFFECTS OF SINGLE (ACUTE) OVEREXPOSURE: SWALLOWING -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. SKIN ABSORPTION -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. ~NHALATION -- Breathing 80% or more oxygen at atmospheric pressure for more than a few hours may cause nasal stuffiness, cough, sore throat, chest pain and breathing difficulty. Breathing oxygen at higher pressure increases the likelihood of adverse effects within a shorter time period. Breathing pure oxygen under pressure may cause lung damage and also central nervous system effects resulting in dizziness~ poor coordination, tingling sensation, visual and hearing disturbances, muscular twitching, unconsciousness and convulsions. Breathing oxygen under pressure may cause prolongation of adaptation to darkness and reduced peripheral vision. SKIN CONTACT -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. EYE CONTACT -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. EFFECTS OF REPEATED (CHRONIC) OVEREXPOSURE: No evidence of adverse effects from available information. OTHER EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: See "Notes to Physician." MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED, BY OVEREXPOSURE: See "Notes to Physician." SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMAN HEALTH HAZARD EVALUATION: None currently known. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: SWALLOWING -- This product is a gas at normal temperature and pressure. SKIN -- No emergency care anticipated. INHALATION -- RemOVe to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Keep victim warm and at rest. Call a phYSician. EYES -- No emergency care anticipated. NOTES 70 PHYSICIAN: Supportive treatment should include immediate sedation, anti-convulsive therapy if needed, and rest. Animal studies suggest that the administration of certain drugs, including phenothiazine drugs and chloroquine, increases the susceptibility to toxicity from oxygen at high concentrations or pressures. Animal studies also indicate that vitamin E deficiency may increase susceptibility to oxygen toxicity. Airway obstruction during high oxygen tension may cause alveolar collapse following absorption of the oxygen. Similarly, occlusion of the eustachian tubes may cause retraction of the eardrum and obstruction of the Paranasal sinuses may produce "vacuum-type" headache. Newborn premature infants exposed to high oxygen concentrations may suffer delayed retinal damage which can progress to retinal detachment and blindness (retrolental fibroplasia). Retinal damage can also occur in adults exposed to 100O/o oxygen under greater than atmospheric pressure, particularly in individuals whose retinal circulation has been previously compromised. All individuals exposed for long periods to oxygen at high pressure and all who exhibit overt oxygen toxicitY should have ophthalmologic examinations.
