2.1.1 Narrative
During this operational period, technicians completed segregation of ACM from non-ACM debris. Recyclable metals were set aside for scrapping. Non-ACM building debris was reduced to smaller pieces by crushing with an excavator. Reducing the size of the debris allows for more cost-efficient transportation and off-site disposal.
2.1.2 Response Actions to Date
An Action Memo was prepared and signed by EPA in July 2014. No other previous response actions have taken place.
2.1.3 Enforcement Activities, Identity of Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs)
None during this reporting periood.

2.2.1 Anticipated Activities
2.2.1.1 Planned Response Activities
The ACM and non-ACM building debris has been segregated and set aside in separate stockpiles for transportation and disposal. Once a trucking firm is contracted, transportation and disposal will be completed.
2.2.1.2 Next Steps
Transportation and disposal at the Finley Butte Landfill in Boardman, Oregon is tentatively planned for the week of 9-22-2014 to 9-27-2014.
