THREE·W A Y DEGREASER
A Safe All Purpose Cleaner
BC CHEMICAL THREE·WAY DEGREASER is a liquid cleaning concentrate with these
outstanding advantages:
Rapidly removes heavy oil, grease and grime from machinery, equipment and floors.
Soluble in hot or cold water and can be rinsed off with water leaving a streak-free
surface.
Safe to use because it is a non-explosive water solution.
Non-corrosive to metal and concrete surfaces.
Economical to use.
How to use B C Chemical Three-Way Degreaser
For medium to heavy deposits of oil and grime I dilute all purpose cleaner with 3 to 1 0
parts of water.
For very heavy deposits of oil, grease or dirt, mix concentrate with 3 to 10 parts of
kerosene or diesel oil.
Application Methods
B C Chemical Three-Way Degreaser may be applied by wiping, brushing or spraying
on the soiled surfaces. The product may also be used in dip tanks or circulated through
equipment to remove oily deposits.
Vertical surfaces may be cleaned by mixing 4 parts of 8 C Chemical Three-Way
Degreaser with 4 parts of kerosene and 1 part of water. This mixture clings to vertical
surfaces until rinsed with water.
Handling
8 C Chemical Three-Way Degreaser is an alkaline solution and contains detergents.
Care should be taken to avoid splashing product in the eyes. In case of eye contact, flush
eyes with plenty of water.

CT5-1 CLEANER
In the 8. C. Chemical line of cleaner products I this high-alkaline detergent is designed
for use in pressure spray or soak type bottle washers. Well adaptable for heavy-duty
cleaning of product lines, pasteurizers, mixers. cookers and other processing equipment.
CTS-1 Cleaner is a blend of alkalies, organic chelates, sequestrants, wetting agents and
other ingredients. These combine to provide a full range of Important advantages I such as:
A complete bottle washing material. It's very effective in automatic bottle washing
machines of all types, including high pressure spray machines. A thorough cleaning
agent for spray washing of reusable plastic milk containers.
The high alkaline content provides germicidal protection.
CTS-1 provides lubricity to reduce friction and wear in bottle washers. Sequestrants
prevent the deposition of scale on bottles and washers. Organic chelates aid in the
control of aluminate scale, caused by dissolved aluminum foil labels.
The best in cleaning results from high rinsability.
In food plants, CTS-1 is a heavy-duty cleanèr for product pipelines, jUice pasteurizers,
vegetable cookers, and other stainless steel processing equipment.
How and where to use CT5-1 Cleaner
Bottle Washing: Concentration of CTS-1 depends on the caustic requirements of regulatory
bodies in the locality. 1 oz. per 1 gaL of CTS-1 equals .71 % cuastic by weight; or .7 oz.lgal.
equals 1/2% caustic by weight. When a code requires 3% caustic. this can be met by using
a solution of CTS-1 at 4-1 /4 ounces per gallon.
Food Processing Equipment: a 2 to 4 oz./gal. solution at 1600 - 180°F, will handle most
jobs.
Plants with central alkali system: for all phases of cleaning operations I the centraJ
reservoir should contain 4-1/4 oZ.lgal. to handle bottle washing I heavy-duty cleaning and
circulation cleaning requirements.
CTS-1 is especially useful in breweries, bottling plants, dairies and food canneries.
NOTE: Uke any alkaline material, CTS-1 should be added slowly to cold water while stirring -
never to hot water either for original makeup or for upkeep. The usual precautions for
handling alkaline materials and solutions should be observed.

DATA SHEET
05-100 OXYGEN SCAVENGER FOR DRILLING FLUIDS AND WATER TREATING
.
Description:
05-100 is a 52% by weight ammonium bisulfite solution and is an oxygen scavenging
agent for drilling fluids and other water systems requiring 'oxygen removal.
Typical Properties:
Appearance
Density, Lb/Gal.
Sulfite %
pH - 50% Solution
Clear Ught Yellow Uquid
10.8
55
4.5
Suggested Uses:
05-100 may be substituted directly for catalyzed sodium sulfite as an oxygen scavenger.
It is a stable solution and being a liquid, there are no dissolving and plugging problems.
Use of 05-1 00 in drilling fluids and other water treatment uses allows protection from
Oxygen corrosion of drill pipe, pumps and other metals in contact with the media.
05-1 00 should be added continuously directly at the pump suction utilizing a chemical
injection pump. Theoretical treating ratio is slightly less than 9 parts of 05-100 per 1 part
of oxygen. Pumping rate is dependent upon the oxygen concentration present. A minimum
of 100 ppm excess sulfite is recommended.
In drilling fluids, the base line corrosion rate may be established by running drill pipe
corrosion rings in the drill string prior to commencing treatment. The coupons should be
run in the drill collar cross-over sub, and the kelly saver sub. If only one coupon is to be
run, it should be placed in the drill collar crossover sub. Rings should be run a minimum of
50 hours (100 hours is desired).

B.C. Mlcroblocide 1000
B.C. Microbiocide 2000
B.C. Microbiocides, available as B.C. 1000, a 25-per cent aqueous solution of glutaral-
dehyde, and B.C. 2000, a 50-per cent aqueous solution of glutaraldehyde, are useful as
preservatives and in formulating broad spectrum indusbial biocides.
B.C. Microbiocides have many important features including:
· EP A Registration
· Effectiveness against a broad spectrum of microorganisms
· Aqueous solutions which are easily and uniformly diluted and mixed
· Ability to be easily neutralized for disposal
· Effectiveness against aerobic and anaerobic organisms
·Compatible with anionic, nonionic, cationic surfactants
· Do not contain or release formaldehyde
· Lower vapor pressure than formaldehyde
· Diluted product easily analyzed by gas chromatography
· Not affected by the presence of hard water
[, .
STORAGE AND HANDLING OF
B.C. MICROBIOCIDES OIL WELL MICROBIOCIDE
B.C. Microbiocide 1000 is an aqueous solution of Glutaraldehyde, at 25% (by weight)
concentration. It is slightly corrosive to common materials of construction, such as steel,
aluminum, and galvanized iron; the corrosion rates are low (equipment would not be
severly damaged) but contamination of the product will result if contact is prolonged.
Materials which have been tested and found to be suitable are stainless steel, certain
fiberglass-reinforced plastics, and polypropylene or polyethylene.
Types 304 or 316 stainless steel are suitable. Of the plastics tested, a polyester
("Atlac" 382) and a vinyl ester ("Derakane" 470) were resistant, but an epoxy showed
some adverse effect after prolonged exposure to Glutaraldehyde. Uned steel containers
are not recommended because iron contamination can result, due to pinholes in the
coating.
NOTE: Storage tanks, lines, pumps, valves, etc., must not be made of iron or steel.
Even trace iron contamination (one ppm or less) can have an adverse effect on
the long-term stability of the product.
The 25% solution freezes at about -10°C (14°F). Thus, if outside storage is planned,
heated and insulated facilities will usually be required. However, the storage stability of
Glutaraldehyde is very dependent on storage temperature and storage at temperatures
below 100°F is recommended. Preferred locations for a storage tank might be either
indoors or underground; drums could be stored in a warehouse or, during hot weather,
in a shaded storage area where they are not directly exposed to the sun.
If B.C. Microbiocide 1000 is to be heated, warm water is the preferred heating medium,
in order to insure that the product will not be exposed to high temperatures. It is
suggested that water temperatures should not exceed about 40-500C (1 00-1 20°F) and
temperature controls could be set so that the average temperature of the stored liquid is
only about 20°C. This should insure a reasonably long storage life for the product.
Piping and valves can be of pOlypropylene or polyethylene or stainless steel. A stainless
steel centrifugal pump is suitable for transfer service. Asbestos can be used for gaskets
and packing.
NOTE: If B.C. Microbiocide is to be diluted I use only distilled/deionized water that is
low in iron, calcium I and magnesium content.

B.C. AMAZING
B.C. AMAZING
1 gallon
5 gallons
ECOLOGICALLY SAFE: The ingredients in B.C. Amazing products are bio-degradable -
they will break down into natural components without harming the environment. There
are no phosphates, enzymes, or other chemical ingredients known to cause pollution, in
any B.C. Amazing product.
ECONOMICAL: B.C. Amazing products are concentrated. That means you use less - a
little goes a long way. There are no "fillers" that serve only to bulk up a product and
make it look like you are getting more than you are.
EFFECTIVE: There are no better products of their kind on the market than B.C. Amazing
products. Because they are different, because they do not contain some of the harmful
ingredients many people are used to, when they clean their stoves with B.C. Amazing
and find there are no dangerous fumes and no skin irritation.
The effectiveness of products as good as B.C. Amazing can be unexpected and
surprising. When the results are so far superior to most other products, it takes some
getting used to. So suggest to every customer that directions be followed carefully,
rather than using B. V. Amazing products "the way they've used that kind of product
before!"
VERSA TIUTY vs OVERKILL: Although we use the term "all-purpose cleaner" on the
label of B.C. Amazing I since that has become more or less the generic term for the type
of cleaner it represents, there really is no such thing as an "all-purpose" cleaner.
So-called all-purpose products tend toward "overkill". They cater to man's search for the
easiest way I rather than the best way. But no liquid cleaner designed to be used for
scrubbing floors can be made powerful enough to remove stubborn stains, with being
too powerful for gentler tasks.
That's why B.C. Amazing products have been carefully formulated to provide safe,
effective, and appropriate results for the task to be done according to how they are
used. The versatility of B.C. Amazing products lets YOU decide how strong a cleaner
YOU need for each job.
The label on B.C. Amazing describes this product as "a modern, soapless product made
from a balanced formula of organic ingredients, completely free of skin and eye irritants".
Let's look at each term in the name of this remarkable personal cleaner and see why we
can make the claims we do for it:
SOAPLESS: There are no alkalies, no phosphates, no soda ash, no artificial chemicals I
or other harsh I irritating or polluting ingredients in B.C. Amazing. It will leave behind no
soap scum or other residual waste. It rinses away cleanly and completely without drying
the skin or leaving residues or washed surfaces.
ORGANIC: The ingredients in B.C. Amazing are organic, that is, composed of the same
types of carbon molecules that make up natural living matter. Thus, they are not only
mild, but also biodegradable - capable of breaking down and returning to the earth,
without endangering any living thing.
CONCENTRATE: A little bit of B.C. Amazing goes a long way. That's why we offer a
mixing bottle to go with it. All directions on the label are for B.C. Amazing diluted half
and half with water - then measured in teaspoonfuls! That's real concentrated action·
and real economy for any "personal touch" cleaning job!
26
e e
IMPORTANT: To prepare B.C. Amazing, fill a mixing bottle half way with water first: then
add the Concentrate; stir or mix gently.
TO DEMONSTRATE B.C. AMAZING: Always use B.C. Amazing according to directions,
in a No. 501 Jiffy Dispenser with No. 502 Flip-top on the 16 oz. size.
ECONOMY: Point out that even after dilution, only a very small amount of B.C. Amazing
is needed for most ordinary jobs. '
GENTLENESS: Place a drop of B.C. Amazing from the mixing bottle into the hand of
your prospect. Ask her to rub it in as she would a hand lotion. As she does, explain that
B.C. Amazing is gentle enough to use in bathing an infant, and that in addition to
cleaning, it actually acts much like a hand lotion in moisturing and conditioning the skin.
Rinse the B.C. Amazing off with a damp washcloth or under a tap.
NON-FLAMMABIUTY: Remove the cap from a bottle of B.C. Amazing and wave a match
back and forth over the opening. Point out that the fumes do not ignite. Next, extinguish
the match by dropping a bit of B.C. Amazing onto the flame. (A wooden match provides
a better demonstration than a paper match.)
EFFECTIVENESS: Mark the back of your hand with lipstick and with a ball point pen,
then massage in a dab of B.C. Amazing. Point out how the two difficult-to-remove blots
immediately begin to be lifted from the skin by the B.C. Amazing handkerchief, then. . .
. . . show the handkerchief stained with the lipstick and ink to your prospect. Rub the
stain in for better effect. Explaining that the dab of B.C. Amazing you cleaned your hand
with is still enough to clean the handkerchief I dip the handkerchief' under a faucet,
squeeze it clean, and display the spotless handkerchief to your prospect. Point out that
B.C. Amazing is harmless to fine fabrics.
Smear a steak of shoe polish, paint or grease across your palm (if you want to let this
dry, you can demonstrate the match test or ask the prospect to feel B.C. Amazing for
herself at this point). Point out that this technique provides excellent protection for the
hands while doing a job of painting, repairing greasy machinery, gardening I etc.
Finally, rinse your hands in a bowl of water or under a faucet and show how the
"invisible gloves" have helped protect your hands.
AUTO WASHING: Mix 2 capfuls of B.C. Amazing to a bucket of water. To remove tar
from any auto finish, use the Jiffy Sprayer with B.C. Amazing, medium or strong solution,
then wash with B.C. Amazing to avoid stripping wax from the finish.
SUGGESTED DEMONSTRATION AIDS: Jiffy Dispenser with Pump; bowl of water; damp
washcloth; handkerchief; lipstick; etc. You'll want to change or add demonstrations as
you gain experience, of course - but always practice before you use them on a
prospect.

BC P.W.101 PARAFFIN DISPERSANT
5 gallons
55 gallons
BC P.W.101 Paraffin Dispersant
BC P.W. 101, an eft'ective water-dispersible paraffin-removal additive, is a high· flash, low-odor
hydrocarbon solvent-dispersant. This blend helps solubilize and disperse paraffin and asphaltic deposits.
A water-external dispersion made with BC P.W. 101 is an excellent substitute for hot-oil treatments I
especially where oil spills and contamination are critical.
Most paraffin dispersants do not function in aqueous systems as well as BC P.W. 101 nor do they
have as effective paraffin-disolving properties.
APPLICATIONS
Well bore and Tubing Cleanout
BC P. W. 1 01 can be dispersed in water or acid to clean tubular goods of: paraffin and asphaltenes
allowing resumption of normal production, paraffins, asphaltenes, and other hydrocarbons prior to other
stimulation treatments.
BC P. W. 101 can also be used in aromatic solvents and/or mutual solvents to help water-wet solids
as the heavy hydrocarbons are solubilized by the solvents.
The proper concentration of BC P. W. 1 01 to ,be added to water for optimum cleaning depends
primarily on the amount of paraffin present, the hardness of the deposit, the adhesiveness of the deposit,
and the temperature at which the paraffin is deposited.
A general recommendation is:
Cold Water (below 75°F)- Use 10% by volume of BC P .W. 101
Warm Water (75 - 1 OOOF)- Use 5%by volume of BC P.W. 101
Hot Water (100 - 150°F) - Use 2% by volume of BC P.W. 101
Very Hot Water (150 - 200°F) - Use 1 % by volume of BC P.W. 101
To compute volume:
Diameter of casing
Standing fluid in casing
Feet of perforation in casing
CAUTION
When used for tubing cleanout, the water temperature should never be hotter than the formation
face because any paraffin that has melted in the treated water will re-deposit on the colder formation
causing damage.
Flow Une Cleanout
BC P. W. 1 01 can be dispersed in water to clean flow lines. The above treat rates apply to flow-line
cleanout. However, the water should be heated to as high a temperature as practical for most efficient
removal. If the flow line is long and/or cooled by water (offshore), it may be necessary to increase the
concentration of BC P.W. 101 to 5%. BC P.W. 101 will work in cold water at higher concentrations. If
the water starts off hot then cools, the BC P. W. 101 will keep the removed solids dispersed.
NOTE
If large amounts of paraffin are deposited it may be necessary to use several lower-temperature
treatments so as not to remove too large an amount of paraffins at one time, thereby physically blocking
system.
MIXING PROCEDURES
BC P.W. 101 can be added to any aqueous fluis and a uniform dispersion can be achieved with
only a small amount of agitation. If left static, the dispersion of BC P.W. 101 in water is stable up to an
hour. Reagitation prior to pumping the fluid is recommended.
SOLUBILITY
Soluble in hydrocarbons
Dispersible in fresh water, salt water, acids
28
e ,_
This product is available in bulk shipments and 55 gallon NR drums. Keep drum openings closed to
prevent product contamination and evaporation.
BC P. W. 1 01 contains no organic halides, heavy metals, or other substances known to be harmful to I
process equipment or refinery catalysts. No special storage and handling precaution is required. Avoid
prolonged and repeated skin contact. In case of contact with skin or eyes, flush exposed area with
water.
PROCEDURE
Batch feed BC P. W. 1 01 per general recommendation at point "B". Let it sit for approximately 2 4
hours. Be sure BC P.W. 101 is completely mixed with fluid in well. Put well back on the line. BC P.W.
1 01 will perform an effective cleaning function throughout the entire system including all flow lines and
valves.
To eliminate future paraffin buildup, a daily maintenance program should be followed. Inject at point
"A" 2 quarts of BC P. W. 101 every 24 hours per 100 barrels of produced oil.
The simple and Inexpensive procedures described above will virtually eliminate costly down time due
to paraffin cake buildup.

1.2 Proiect Overview
A schematic plot plan of the former B.C. Chemicals
Company Site is shown in Figure 2).
The project site contains an estimated 6,000-7,000 drums
and chemi ca 1 containers. These drums are in vari ous
conditions, ranging from full to empty, some are clearly
labeled while others are not, and some are physically
intact whil e others are damaged. In addit i on to the
drums, the site has several 1 arge storage tanks, and
some chemical processing equipment.
At various locations at the site, there is evidence of
spills (discolored soils), and some spills may have
migrated a short distance off site.
I n add it i on to chemi ca 1 conta i ners , the site has two
buildings. One is a small open sided structure formerly
used as a diesel engine repair shop. The other is a
warehouse, and contains unopened packages of chemicals,
most of which are in a re-useable form.
B.C. Chemicals handled a wide range of materials.
Appendix A gives their product list, together with some
relevant Materials Safety Data Sheets. It should be
assumed that any, and all, of the listed chemicals may
be encountered on site.

4.0 EMPLOYEE AND VISITOR INFORMATION
· Personnel should be cautioned to inform each other of
subject i ve symptoms of chern; ca 1 exposure such as headaches,
dizziness, nausea, and irritation of the respiratory tract,
eyes, or skin.
· No excessive facial hair, which interferes with a
satisfactory fit of the mask-to-face seal, will be allowed on
personnel required to wear respiratory protective equipment.
· All respiratory protection selection, use, and maintenance
shall meet the requirements of established procedures, 29 CFR
1910.134, and recognized consensus standards (AIHA, ANSI,
NIOSH) .
· Heat Stress Control:
Adverse climatic conditions, heat and cold, are important
considerations in planning and conducting site operations.
The effects of ambient temperature can cause physical
8
emcon Associates
oject No. A4S-01.01
discomfort, loss of efficiency, personal lnJury, and
increased accident probability. In particular, heat stress
due to protective clothing decreasing body ventilation is an
important factor (see Table 2). One or more of the following
recommendat ions wi 11 help reduce heat stress. Thei r
applicability is dependent on evaluating the climatic
conditions specific to the operations.
· Provide plenty of liquids to replace lost body fluids.
Employees should replace water and salts lost from sweating.
Use either a 0.1% salt water solution, more heavily salted
foods, or commercial mixes such as Gatorade. The commercial
mixes may be preferable for employees on low sodium diets.
· Establish a work schedule that will provide sufficient rest
periods for cooling down. This may require shifts of workers
when wearing suits and SCBA (See Table 1).
· Cooling devices, such as vortex coolers and cool vests, may
be worn under suits.
· Establish work regimes consistent with the ACGIH Guidelines
given in Table 1, with consideration given to the recommended
modifications of the WBGT Index as provided in Table 2.
· To assist in determining the body's recuperative ability to
excessive heat, one or more of the following monitoring
techniques should be used as a screening mechanism for deter-
mlnlng recovery. Monitoring of personnel should commence at
least when the ambient temperature at any time during the day
is 75°F or above. Frequency of monitoring should increase as
the ambient temperature increases or as monitoring indicates
slow recovery rates (after every work period above 85°).

a. Heart Rate (HR) shoul d be measured by the radi a 1 pul se
during 30 seconds as early as possible in the resting
period. The HR at the beginning of the rest period
should not exceed 110 beats per minute. If the HR is in
excess of the above value, the next work peri od shoul d
be shortened by 10 minute (or 33 percent) while the
length of the rest period stays the same. If the pulse
rate is in excess of 110 beats per minute at the
beginning of the next rest period, the following work
cycle should be further shortened by 33 percent.
b. Body Temperature (BT) shoul d be measured orally wi th a
clinical thermometer as early as possible in the resting
period. Oral temperature (OT) at beginning of the rest
period should not exceed 99.7°F (corresponding to
100.4°F BT). If OT exceeds 99.7°F, the next work period
should be shortened by 10 minutes (or 33 percent) while
the length of the rest period stays the same. However,
if the OT is in excess of 99.7°F at the beginning of the
next rest period, the following work cycle should be
further shortened by 33 percent. OT should be measured
again at the end of the rest period to make sure that OT
decreased below 99.7°F.

evening after finishing work. The clothing worn should
be similar to both weighingsj preferably the worker
should be nude. The scale should be accurate to ± 1/2
pound. BWL should not exceed 1.5 percent of total body
weight. If BWL exceeds 1.5 percent, the worker should
be instructed to increase his daily intake of fluids by
the amount of total deficit (morning body weight minus
evening body weight).
5.0 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
5.1 Introduction
It is important that personal protective equipment and safety
requirements be appropriate to protect against the potential
hazards at the site. Protective equipment will be selected
based on the contaminant type(s), concentration(s), and
routes of entry. In situations where the type of materials
and possibilities of contact are unknown or the hazards are
not clearly identifiable, a more subjective determination
must be made of the personal protective equipment for initial
safety.
The appropriate level of protection shall be determined prior
to the initial entry on-site based on best available informa-
tion. Subsequent information may suggest changes in the
original level selected. Descriptions of basic levels of
protection are given in Appendix II.

5.2 Identification of Levels of Protection
Table 3.0 identifies the levels of protection recommended for
activities expected to be performed during Phase II of this
project. Subsequent phases may require different safety
procedures and these will be identified later.
6.0 WORK ZONES AND DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES
6.1 General
A site must be controlled to reduce the possibility of
exposure to any contami nants present and thei r transport by
personnel or equipment from the site.
A control system is requi red to assure that personnel and
equipment working on the hazardous waste site are subject to
appropriate health and safety surveillance.
The possibility of exposure or translocation of contaminants
can be reduced or eliminated in a number of ways, including:
· Setting up security or physical barriers to exclude
unnecessary personnel from the general area.
· Minimizing the number of personnel and equipment on site
consistent with effective operations.
· Establishing work zones within the site.
· Establ i shing control points to regul ate access to work
zones.
15
emcon Associates
oject No. A45-01.01
· Conducting operations in a manner to reduce the exposure
of personnel and equipment.
· Minimizing the airborne dispersion of contaminant(s).
· Implementing appropriate decontamination procedures.
As work proceeds on this project the Project Manager and/or
the Safety Coordinator shall make any necessary decisions, or
changes in procedures.
6.2 Field Operations Work Areas
6.2.1 Exclusion Zone
Work areas (zones) shall be established based on
anticipated contamination. Within these prescribed
zones, operations shall occur utilizing appropriate
persona 1 protective equi pment. Movement between areas
shall be controlled at check-points. The future planned
zones are:
· Exclusion Area (contaminated)
· Contamination Reduction Area and
· Support Area (non-contaminated)
16
emcon Associotes
Project No. A45-01.01
The Safety Coordinator shall establish these zones prior
to the commencement of Phase II activities, using the
following guidelines:
1. Exclusion Area
The Exclusion area is the innermost area of three
concentric rings and is considered contaminated,
dirty or "hot". Within this area, prescribed
protection must be worn by any entering personnel.
An entry checkpoi nt shall be establ i shed by the
Safety Coordi nator at the peri phery of the
Exclusion Area to control the flow of personnel and
equipment between contiguous zones and to
ascertain that the procedures established to enter
and exit the zones are followed. The Exclusion
Area boundary shall be established initially based
on the presence of the actual wastes or hazardous
materials within the area. Subsequent to initial
entry and as clean-up proceeds, the boundary shall
be readjusted based on observations and/or
measurements. The boundary shall be physically
secure and posted.
2. Contamination Reduction Area
Between the Exclusion Area and the Support Area is
the Contami nat ion Reduct i on Area. The purpose of
thi s zone is to provide an area to prevent or
reduce the transfer of contaminants which may have
been picked up by personnel or equipment returning
from the exclusion area. All decontamination
activities shall occur in this area.
17
emcon Associates
ject No. A45-01.01
The boundary between the Support Area and the
Contamination Reduction Area is the contamination
control line. This boundary separates the
possibly-contaminated area from the clean lone.
Entry into the Contamination Reduction Area from
the Clean Area must be through an access control
point. Personnel entering at this station shall be
wearing the prescribed personal protective
equipment for working in the Contamination
Reduction Area. Exiting the Contamination
Reduction Area to the clean area requires the
removal of any suspected, or known, contaminated
persona 1 protect i ve equi pment and comp 1 i ance with
decontamination procedures. At the boundary
between the Contami nat i on Reduct i on Area and the
Exclusion Area is the hot line and access control
station.
3. Support Area
The support Area is the outermost of three ri ngs
and is considered a non-contaminated or clean area.
It contains the Command Post (CP) for field
operations and other elements necessary to support
site activities. Normal street clothes or Level 0
work clothes are usually the appropriate apparel
within this lone.
6.2.2 Temporary Procedures
Figure 2 identifies the area adjacent to the entrance
and the office as the support area. Individuals,
equipment and vehicles that only enter this area will be
considered free from contamination and need not undergo
decontamination procedures. The assumption that this
18
emcon Rssociates
Project No. A45-01.01
the on-5 He equipment will only 1 eave the contaminated
area at the end of the project.
6.3 Decontamination Procedures
6.3.1 Introduction
As part of the system to prevent or reduce the physical
transfer of contaminants by people and/or equipment from
on-s ite, procedures shall be i nst ituted for decontam-
inating anything leaving the site. These procedures
include the decontamination of personnel, protective
equipment, monitoring equipment, clean-up equipment,
etc. Unless otherwise demonstrated, everything leaving
the site should be considered contaminated and
appropriate methods established for decontamination. In
general, decontamination at the site consists of rinsing
equipment, personnel, etc., with copious amounts of
water and washing same with detergent/water solution.
If contaminants are known, then a specific detergent
and/or solvent can be used to decontaminate. High
pressure steam cleaning can also be an effective
decontamination method in some instances.
Disposable protective clothing sha-ll be placed in
on-site drums for ultimate disposal at a Class I
landfill. All decontamination washes and rinses must be
contained so that they too can be properly disposed of.

6.3.2 Decontamination Solution
Based on U. S. EPA recommendat ions for decontami nat ion
procedures, the sol ut i on for the decontami nat i on shall
be as follows:
For every 10 gallons of water, add 4 pounds
of sodium carbonate (soda lime) and 4 pounds
of trisodium phosphate, stir until evenly
mixed.
This solution is designed to react with and neutralize
the inorganic acids and to remove the organic hydro-
carbons. If contaminants are known then a specific
detergent and/or solvent can be used to decontaminate.
The decontami nat i on process uses water and ri nse
solutions for washing down personnel and equipment.
The spent solution, brushes, sponges, containers,
stands, etc., used in the decontamination process must,
unt i1 shown otherwi se, be cons i dered contami nated and
must be properly disposed of.

Before beginning the project,training sessions should be conducted
for all individUals engaged in field activities. The following
safety items and procedures should be discussed:
· Emergency procedures and equipment (fire extinguishers,
spill control kits, emergency eyewash, and emergency
oxygen kit)
· Basic first-aid
procedures
and
cardiopulmonary
resuscitation
· Non-emergency health and safety procedures
· Procedures for donning protective equipment
· Procedures for decontamination
· Consideration of heat stress when wearing protective
clothing and procedures for monitoring heat stress
· Potential chemical hazards at the site under investigation
· OSHA requirements for personal protective equipment
· Toxicological concepts and classification schemes
· Standards: permissible exposure limits (PELs), threshold
limit values (TLVs), and immediately dangerous to life or
health (IDLH) concentrations
· Personal protective methods: foot, body, hand, eye, ear,
and head protection

· Respiratory use: isoamyl acetate qualitative fit testing,
maintenance; cleaning, inspecting, and storing respirators
· Medical surveillance requirements: baseline,
surveillance, and acute exposure physicals; common
laboratory tests and their significance
· Air monitoring: capabilities and limitations of Draeger
tube detection systems, photoionization detection systems,
flame ionization detection systems, and explosimeters
· Levels of protection: requirements for levels A, B, C,
and D protection
· Employee rights and responsibilities
In addition, field personnel must receive safety training to
comply with OSHA hazardous waste operations training requirements
mandated by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthori zat i on Act of
1986.

APPENDIX B
LEVELS OF PROTECTION
I. Leve 1 A
Level A protection should be worn when the highest level of
respiratory, skin and eye contact protection is needed. Level A
provides the maximum available protection but does not protect
against all possible airborne or splash hazards. (Level A protec-
tive clothing material selected should be based on chemical per-
meability and resistivity. For example, suit material may be
rapidly permeable to certain chemicals in high concentrations).
Level A protection is the minimum level recommended for initial
site entri es, unt il the hazards have been defi ned and the appro-
priate personal protective equipment is utilized.
II . Leve 1 B
leve 1 B protect ion should be se 1 ected when the hi ghes t 1 eve 1 of
respiratory protection is needed but a lesser level of skin pro-
tection is required.
II 1. Leve 1 C
level C protection should be selected only when the airborne
contami nant type (s) and concentrat i on (s) are known; the criteri a
for using air-purifying respirators are met; and the exposed skin
in the few unprotected areas (i.e., neck and back of head) is
unlikely to cause any adverse health effects.

4ÏÞ0ject No. A45-01.01
IV. Level D
Level D is the basic work uniform. Level D protection should only
be selected when the work area is positively identified as having
no toxic hazards. Level D alone will only be authorized in the
Support Area and after contamination is removed.
EQUIPMENT AND SELECTION CRITERIA
I . Leve 1 A
A. Personal Protective Equipment
1. Open circuit positive pressure SCBA (MSHA/NIOSH
Approved) .
2. Totally encapsulating suit (boots and gloves attached).
3. Gloves - Inner (tight fitting and chemical-resistant).
4. Boots Chemical-protective, steel toe and shank.
Depending on suit boot construction - worn over suit
boot.
5. Gloves - Outer, chemical-resistant. Depending on suit
construction worn over suit gloves. May be replaced
with tight-fitting, chemical resistant gloves worn
inside suit gloves.
6. Hard Hat (under suit) (Optional).
7. Disposable protective suit, gloves and boots. (Worn
under or over encapsulating suit) (Optional).

B. Criteria for Use
1. When the type(s) and concentration(s) of toxic sub-
stances are known and require the highest level of
combined protection to the respiratory tract, skin and
eyes. These conditions would be:
a) Atmospheres which are "Immediately Dangerous to
LHe and Health" (IOLH).
b) Known atmosphere or potential situations that would
affect the skin or eyes, or could be absorbed into
the body through these surfaces in toxic
quant it i es.
1) Potential situations are those where vapors may
be generated or splash i ng occur through site
activities.
2) Standard reference books should be consulted to
obtain concentrations hazardous to skin, eyes
or mucous membranes.
c) Oxygen deficient atmospheres with above conditions.

B. Criteria for Use
1. When the type(s) and concentration(s) of hazardous
substances are known and require the highest degree of
respiratory protection; but a lower level of skin
protection.
a) Atmospheres which are IDLH. Type(s) and concentra-
tion(s) of vapors in air do not present a hazard to
the small, unprotected areas of the body.
b) Atmospheres with concentrations of known substances
greater than protection factors associated with
full-face, air-purging respirators with appropriate
cartridges.
c) Atmospheres with less than 19.5 percent oxygen.
2. A determination is made that potential exposure to body
parts not protected by a fully encapsulating suit
(primarily neck, ears, etc.) is highly unlikely.
a) Known absence of cutaneous or percutaneous harmful
agents.
b) Activities performed preclude splashing of indi-
viduals.
3. Total vapor levels range from 5 ppm - 500 ppm on instru-
ments such as the photoionizer or Organic Vapor Analyzer
