1. Current Situation
U.S. EPA, START and ERRS continue to inventory, stage, sample and haz-cat drums. ERRS began consolidating and bulking materials into waste streams for disposal. A containment area was constructed for the staging of RCRA empty drums to await rinsing and disposal. Air monitoring continued within the hot zones. No detectable concentrations of volatile organic carbons (VOCs) have been recorded outside of the hot zones. To date, 1458 drums have been inventoried and 1312 drums have been sampled.
