2.2.1 Anticipated Activities
2.2.1.1 Planned Response Activities
The large log posts and beams used to support the Maintenance Building have been set aside to be transported to a landfill via log truck. ERRS is in the process of receiving cost estimates to provide this service.
The concrete Maintenance Building foundation is planned for use to stage decontaminated, cut steel from the ASTs from the Treatment Building. Once this steel and the steel materials salvaged from the Maintenance Building have been removed for recycling, the concrete pad will be washed off prior to demobilization.
2.2.2 Issues
Five other buildings on Blackbird Drive have surveyed for the presence of asbestos. Asbestos has been detected in four of the five buildings. EPA is considering next steps in regards to these buildings.
