On June 15, 2007 OSC Brian Kelly, Trenton Fire Captain Jeff Bonkoski and Fire Marshall Dave Michalak conducted an assessment of the DSC site. During the assessment hundreds of drums, totes, lab chemicals, and other waste containers were found throughout the site. May of these containers were leaking, unsecured, and accessible to trespassers and the elements. Evidence of trespassing, graffiti, and fence-line breaches was documented (see website photos).
On June 27, OSC Kelly, Fire Marshall Michalak, City of Trenton official Virgil Maiani, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agent Dan Sheill, and DEQ officials Richard Conforti, Dan Yordanich, Paul Ownes, Tom Sampson, Edward Novak, and Tracy Kecskemeti inspected the site.
Noted during the inspection were the same items identified on June 15, with the addition of dead birds in violation of the Migratory Bird Act and documentation of more than 1,000 unsecured (some leaking into the secondary containment) PCB capacitors.
On July 2, 2007, DSC agree to conduct removal action to secure, sample, segregate, and dispose of drums and containers of waste.
On January 31, 2008, under a voluntary action, DSC completed the disposal of 1091 containers and drums.
Removal of containers and drums complete. PCB transformers and capacitors still remain.
Negotiate Administrative Order on Consent to remove unused PCB equipment.
