On January 6, 2004 , U.S. EPA mobilized the Emergency Rapid Response Services (ERRS) contractor, Earth Tech (ET), and the Superfund Technical Assistance and Response (START) contractor, Tetra Tech EM Inc., to conduct removal activities at the Smith Chemical site. Currently, all drums have been staged on the first floor. Empty drums have been segregated and staged separate from the drums containing product. All drums have been sampled, hazardous categorized, and segregated into waste streams.

On Monday, February 23th, approximately 165 gallons of calcium chloride was discharged into the sanitary sewer as approved by the City of Canton. ERRS continued to bulk partially full drums of material, segregate material into waste streams, and over-pack drums. Air monitoring was conducted during all removal activities with a combustible gas indicator (CGI) and a flame-ionization detector (FID). No readings were detected above background.
On Tuesday, February 24th, an additional 165 gallons of calcium chloride was discharged into the sanitary sewer as approved by the City of Canton. ERRS continued to over-pack drums and segregate material into waste streams for future disposal. SunPro Environmental Services was on site to collect samples from drums originally belonging to a PRP (BJ Services). Air monitoring conducted during all removal activities with no readings detected above background.
On Wednesday, February 25th, the final 55 gallons of calcium chloride was discharged into the sanitary sewer. A total of 550 gallons of calcium chloride was discharged to the sewer. No additional discharges are planned. ERRS completed over-packing of drums and segregation into waste streams. Air monitoring was conducted during removal activities with no readings detected above background.
On Thursday, February 26th , ERRS poured samples collected for hazardous categorization back into the appropriate drums. ERRS prepared the site for demobilization. The site will be demobilized until disposal analytical results are received and disposal facilities are selected.
On Friday, February 27th, all personnel and equipment have been demobilized from site. All drums are over-packed in 85-gallon steel drums. The site was secured.
