This Site is a former chemical recycling facility that filed for bankruptcy in 2010. The Site is under the control of a Trustee for the Estate appointed by the Bankruptcy Court. The Estate does not have the funding necessary to address the conditions at the site. The site consists of approximately 11 vacuum boxes, 2 roll-off boxes, 12 frac tanks, 2 Tanker Trailers, 20 Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs), 15 Waste Water Treatment Tanks, Waste Piles, and numerous totes, vats, drums, and smaller containers. In addition, spillage of chemicals to exterior surfaces as well as building interiors. The Site has experienced significant vandalism since its bankruptcy in 2010. Additionally, recent spills have occurred due to vandalism which has resulted in the spillage of chemicals and waste to the ground surface and into an adjacent residential neighborhood. Emergency responses to these spills have involved the Estate, City of Houston, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, and the EPA. These spill responses were addressed by the Estate, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), and the EPA.
