Chaudoin - President Division of Fumigation 2428 Lewis Avenue Long Beach, Ca. 90806 Dear Mr. Smith: Per our conversation, an inspection of your facility WILL be conducted on Monday, October 7, 1991 at 8:30 A.M. Our concerns are that the business plan and inventory submitted for this faCility are inaccurate, that acutely hazardous materials are stored at this facility, however an Acutely Hazardous Materials Registration form has not been submitted, and that the building occupancy level may be inappropriate for the current usage. Chapter 6.95 of the California Health and Safety Code does provide for civil penalties, for failure to properly report, of up to $2,000 for each day in which the violation occurs. Further, if in our inspection we do find violations that pose a current threat to public safety, these violation will require satisfactory mitigation before work can resume at that facility. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely Yours, Ralph E.

It has been determined your operations may present an acutely hazardous materials accident risk. Therefore, pursuant· to section 25534 of the California Health and Safety Code, a Ris~ Management and Prevention Program (RMPP) will be required for the use and handling of methyl bromide at the Division of Fumigati°n. The RMPP shall be based upon a risk assessmen% which shall consider all of the follOwing: THE RESULTS OF A HAZARD ANALYSIS WHICH IDENTIFIES THE HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE HANDLING OF AN ACUTELY HAZARDOUS MATERIAL DUE TO OPERATING ERROR, EQUIPMENT FAILURE AND EXTERNAL EVENTS WHICH MAY PRESENT AN ACUTELY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ACCIDENT RISK. FOR THE HAZARDS IDENTIFIED IN THE HAZARD ANALYSIS, AN OFFSITE CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS WHICH ASSUMES PESSIMISTIC AIR DISPERSION AND OTHER ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. The RMPP shall include the following elements: A DESCRIPTION OF EACH ACCIDENT INVOLVING ACUTELY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS WHICH HAS OCCURRED AT THE FACILITY WITHIN THREE YEARS FROM THE DATE OF. THIS RMPP REQUEST. THIS DESCRIPTION SHALL INCLUDE THE UNDERLYING CAUSES OF THE ACCIDENT AND THE MEASURES TAKEN, IF ANY, TO AVOID A RECURRENCE OF A SIMILAR ACCIDENT. A REPORT SPECIFYING THE NATURE, AGE AND CONDITION OF THE EQUIPMENT USED TO HANDLE ACUTELY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AT THE FACILITY. INCLUDE SCHEDULES FOR TESTING AND MAINTENANCE OF THIS EQUIPMENT. DESIGN, OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE CONTROLS WHICH MINIMIZE THE RISK OF AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING ACUTELY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.

The Legislature declares that, in order to protect the public health and safety and the environment, it n_ _,~,~__ ~r~ to establLsh business and area plans relating to the handling and telease or threatened release of hazardous materials. The e~tablishment of minimum storewide standards for the~e plans is a statewide concern. Basic information on the location, type, quantity, and the health r/sks'of hazardous mater/aLs handled, used,` stored, or dLsposed of in the slate, wh/ch could be accidentally 'released into the environment, LS not now ava/lable to firefighters, health off/dal~, planners, publ/c safety officers, health care prov/ders, regulatory agendes, and other interested persons. The information provided by business and area plans is necer~ary in order to prevent or m/t/gate the damage to the health and safety of persons and the enVironment from the release or threatened release of hazardous mater/aLs into the workplace and environment. The Legislature further finds and declares that thLs chapter does not occupy the whole area of regulating the inventor!ring of b~rdous materials and the preparation of hazardous materials response plans by busine,~ses and the Leg/slature does not intend to preempt any local aaions, ordinances, or regulations wh/ch impose additional or more stringent requirements on businesses which handle hazardous mater/als.

(Article 2 added by Stats. 1986, Ch. 1260) .:..'. 2553L The Legishture finds and declares that a si~iflcant number of chemical manufacturing and processing facilit/es generate, store, treat, handle, refine, process, and transport hazardous mater/als. The Legislature further finds and declares that, because of the nature and volume of chem/cah handled at these facilities, some of those operations may represent a threat to public health and safety The Legislature recognizes that the potential for explosions, fires, or releases of toxic chemicals into the environment exists. The pwtection of the public from uncontrolled releases or explosions of hazardous materials is of statewide concern. There is an increasing capacity to both minimize and respond to releases of toxic air contaminants and hazardous mater/als once they occur, and to formulate effident phns to evacuate dtizens if these discharges or releases cannot -be contained. However, programs designed to prevent these accidents are the most effeaive way to protect the community health and safety and the environment. These programs should antidpate the circumstances that could result in their occurrence and require the taking of n~ry precautionary and preemptive actions, consistent with the nature of the bn~rdous.materiais handled by the facility and the surrounding environment.

Won't polymerize, but forms haz- ardous decomposition products and fire products, including hydrogen bromide gas, methyl bromide aerosols, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde & bromine gas. Methyl Bromide (EPA) ENVIRONMENT - ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS (NTC) - ~ IMMEDIATE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Effects on air: possible major air pollution hazard. Effects on water: potential surface water contamination which is unlikely to persist due to rapid degradation, high volatility & low solubility. Effects on soil: potential contamination, leading to surface water pollution. No hazard to soil. Allows hydrogen bromide to enter surface water as hydrobromic acid. & LONG-TERM ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Local, possibly severe effects in immediate spill area. Long-term effects are minimal due to rapid degradation. Does not bioconcentrate in the food chain. May slightly increase chemical and biologic oxygen demand. - SPILL / LEAK EMERGENCY ACTION (DOT) - Do not touch spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Use water spray to reduce vapors. Small spills: Take up with sand or other non-combustible, absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal. Small dry spills: With a clean shovel, place material into a clean, dry container and cover. Move containers from spill area. . Large spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. - EMERGENCY SPILL MANAGEMENT (NTC) - Air releases: monitor situation & evacaute immediate spill area, allow wind to disperse. water releases: allow to evaporate. soil releases: allow to evaporate. - SPILL TREATMENT / DISPOSAL (NTC) - May be neutralized, with expert assistance, using aeration or soda ash. Hazardous waste landfill disposal of untreated material is not recommended. Methyl Bromide (EPA) IDENTIFICATION - IDENTIFYING NUMBERS / REFERENCES (NTC) - Methyl Bromide (EPA). Bromomethane.
