20 PRESENTATIONS

A Laurie Ziegenfus of BAampH meeting moderator opened the meeting by welcoming attendees and thanking everyone for p a r t i c i p a t i n g in the t h i r d EPAState public meeting for the Union Chemical Co Superfund s i t e She explained that t h i s meeting was co-sponsored by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region I and that follow-up meetings w i l l be held to keep the public informed about events at the Union Chemical Co s i t e Ms Ziegenfus explained that t h i s public information meeting would accomplish several objectives

To provide EPA and DEP o f f i c i a l s with the opportunity to communicate to the public on the status of the s i t e

To provide community members with the opportunity to ask questions and hear answers or to have o f f i c i a l s make a commitment to provide lat e r responses

To provide community members with the opportunity to state t h e i r comments andor concerns regarding the s i t e

Ms Ziegenfus introduced the speakers describing each of t h e i r respective roles and reviewed the meeting agenda (See Appendix C for meeting agenda) She also explained that a question-and-answer period would follow the presentations

B Michael Jasinski of the US EPA Region I opened his presentation with a b r i e f explanation of f i r s t his role as the Remedial Project Manager (RPM) and second EPAs re s i d e n t i a l well sampling program He informed the attendees that he started work on the Union Chemical s i t e i n August 1987 and that his involvement has included conducting and overseeing the second and t h i r d rounds of sampling meetings with other o f f i c i a l - s and the responsible parties and community r elations a c t i v i t i e s He explained that as the EPA RPM he w i l l coordinate with Maine DEP and w i l l be a c t i vely involved with the s i t e throughout the response process

Mr Jasinski summarized the recent accomplishments of the re s i d e n t i a l well sampling program which has been underway on a quarterly basis

-2shy

since June 1987 He explained that each round of sampling takes four weeks or more for laboratory analysis and outlined the standard procedure as f ollows^mdash

Samples are collected from designated r e s i d e n t i a l wells

These are sent to the selected laboratory and analyzed within seven days of the date they were taken

Quality assurance procedures are conducted and

The results are submitted to EPA for d i s t r i b u t i o n

Mr Jasinski explained that the f i r s t two rounds of sampling conducted i n JuneJuly 1987 and OctoberNovember 1987 included approximately 45 r e s i d e ntial wells w i t h i n a half-mile radius of the s i t e Samples were tested for v o l a t i l e organic compounds (VOCs) polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) pesticides and other contaminants The t h i r d round of sampling i n January 1988 focused on those wells that showed the presence of pollutants i n the f i r s t two rounds- and on wells i n t h e i r immediate v i c i n i t y Before t h i s c o l l e c t i o n e f f o r t had begun the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) DEP and EPA agreed that only 25 of the o r i g i n a l 45 wells would be included i n the January sampling i n order to focus on the contamination Mr Jasinski explained that the wells to be included i n the fourt h round of sampling i n A p r i l w i l l be determined by the results of the t h i r d round of sampling

Mr Jasinski pointed out that i n each of the f i r s t two rounds of sampling f i v e r e s i d e n t i a l wells showed trace levels of contamination three of which tested p o s i t i v e i n both He then postulated reasons for data inconsistencies One possible explanation is that because of the very low detection levels of a n alytical instruments Used mdash i n the parts per b i l l i o n (ppb) range mdash analytical results can show i n termittent fluctuations and are not consistently dependable for trace amounts of contamination

To date te s t results for the JuneJuly 1987 and OctoberNovember 1987 sampling have been published

-3shy

(See Appendix D for t e s t results and the corresponding map that i d e n t i f i e s wells i n the r e s i d e n t i a l well sampling program) He informed attendees that the results~ftorn the January round of sampling are not yet available but w i l l be d i s t r i b u t e d to the public as soon as they are received

The fourth round of sampling is scheduled to take place i n A p r i l 1988 EPA may involve the contracting f i r m that the responsible parties have hired to conduct the Remedial I n v e s t i g a t i o n F e a s i b i l i t y Study (RIFS) Canonie Environmental since they w i l l eventually assume f u l l r e s p o n s i b i l i t y for the r e s i d ential well sampling program

Mr Jasinski concluded t h i s portion of his presentation with EPAs response to a l e t t e r recently received from the Town of Hope requesting that a l t e rnative drinking water be provided for residents whose wells showed trace levels of contamination He explained t h a t at t h i s time the low levels of contamination detected i n the r e s i d e n t i a l well water do not pose a s i g n i f i c a n t health hazard therefore EPA cannot now comply with the request

Cynthia Kuhns of Maine DEP gave a presentation on DEPs ground-water monitoring program and reviewed preliminary results and conclusions

She-explained that Maine DEP i n s t a l l e d three sets of well clusters on s i t e i n 1986 The well clusters consist of a series of shallow wells (10-15 feet below the surface) intermediate-depth wells (15-30 feet below the surface) and deep wells (15 feet into the underlying bedrock) This positioning w i l l allow DEP to examine the d i f f e r e n t ground-water regimes since people obtain water from d i f f e r e n t depths

Ms Kuhns explained that the DEP monitoring program targets on-site wells and several wells east of Quiggle Brook She indicated that on-site wells continue to show high levels of contaminants which was expected and that two wells east the brook have begun to show low levels of contamination

Preliminary results reveal inconclusive evidence for contamination east of the brook due i n part to numerous variables i n the ground-water hydrogeology She explained that the local ground water appears to be flowing i n a southeasterly d i r e c t i o n toward Quiggle

-4shy

Brook and DEP believes i t is migrating upward into the Brook - Also very low levels of contamination have been detected across Quiggle Brook consisting of xylenebenzene and toulene which are components of gasoline and DEP is not certain that these substances have migrated from the Union Chemical Co s i t e She requested that anyone with knowledge of possible a l t e r n a t i v e sources of t h i s contamination such as an underground gasoline tank contact DEP with t h i s information since there i s uncertainty regarding the source of t h i s contamination

She stated that Maine DEP has not come toa d e f i n i t i v e conclusion regarding contamination of ground water

D Marilyn D i s i r i o of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) i n Atlanta Georgia gave a b r i e f overview of Superfund health assessments and informed the participants that ATSDR has developed a Draft Health Assessment on the Union Chemical s i t e i n response to a c i t i z e n p e t i t i o n She explained that the d r a f t health assessment i s based i n part on ATSDRs review of the health survey conducted by the State of Maine i n 1983

She b r i e f l y explained that a Superfund health assessment i s not based on individual health rather on the population i n a general sense I t i d e n t i f i e s general health problems and examines the mo b i l i t y of contamination possible contamination routes and levels of exposure ATSDR does not yet have complete data on aspects of the food chain however she explained that a health assessment i s an i t e r a t i v e process which w i l l continue through the s i t e remediation process and that additional data w i l l continue to be gathered

Ms D i s i r i o d i s t r i b u t e d copies of the draft health assessment for the Union Chemical Co s i t e and announced that the ATSDR w i l l hold a separate public-meeting i n the South Hope Elementary School on March 10-at 700 pm to provide community residents with the opportunity to discuss health issues with ATSDR o f f i c i a l s Among the o f f i c i a l s attending the meeting to answer questions w i l l be s c i e n t i s t s engineers t o x i c o l o g i s t s and other health s p e c i a l i s t s

E Michael Jasinski of theUS EPA concluded the presentation section of the meeting with an update on specific programmatic aspects of the Union Chemical s i t e These topics included

-5shy

The Trust Fund The s e t t l i n g parties have established a $125 m i l l i o n t r u s t fund and have chosen Canonie Environmental to conduct the s i t e RIFS The Administrative Orders signed November 4 1987 and January 13 1988 outline the r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s of the s e t t l i n g parties and d i r e c t t h e i r actions

The RIFS The RIFS work plan i s currently undergoing f i n a l revisions after which i t w i l l be made available for public comment I t w i l l then be revised i f needed and RIFS work w i l l commence at the s i t e

Mr Jasinski explained that EPA recently met w ith the s e t t l i n g parties to review DEP ground-water sampling data and discuss RIFS a c t i v i t i e s These parties are w i l l i n g to continue ground-water t e s t i n g to modify interceptor trench and to consider taking action to contain the plume of contaminated ground water so that i t w i l l not migrate across Quiggle Brook According to Mr Jasinski the RIFS a c t i v i t i e s w i l l include additional ground-water sampling a i r - q u a l i t y t e s t i n g and the conduct of a baseline r i s k assessment to evaluate i n d i v i d u a l risks posed by drinking water ( d i f f e r e n t from ATSDRs health assessment) He also t o l d attendees that RIFS a c t i v i t i e s may s t a r t i n A p r i l 1988

The Information Repository Mr Jasinski also discussed the location of the s i t e information repository explaining that EPA has checked into housing i t at several locations however there have been numerous complications He announced that i t w i l l be housed at least temporarily i n the Hope Town Office and i d e n t i f i e d the materials to be included i n the repository such as the CRP the Administrative Orders and other

_ s i t e - s p e c i f i c documents

The Site Hotline He announced that a Union Chemical s i t e hotline has been established for the communitys use the phone number i s (207) 785-8000 Community members can leave messages on the answering machine which w i l l be monitored once a day and someone

30 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

The following section summarizes questions and answers and comments and responses made during the meeting Questions and comments have been paraphased and grouped by subject into the following categories

Residential well sampling re s u l t s

Ground-water monitoring

Past s i t e history and

Miscellaneous

RESIDENTIAL WELL SAMPLING RESULTS

Past Sampling Results

Several questions were asked concerning the results of the residential- well sampling program These questions include

C l a r i f i c a t i o n on the date of the sampling r esults presented i n the handout

Which sampling results that showed presence of chloroform

Whether a l l r e s i d e n t i a l wells should i n f a c t not be tested again since chloroform was detected i n the Foggs we l l

The respective answers provided to these questions include

Mr Jasinski explained that JuneJuly 1987 results were provided i n the handout

Mr Jasinski c l a r i f i e d that the OctoberNovember 1987 results detected chloroform i n the Foggs w e l l although t h i s does not appear to be a

-7shy

result of contamination from the Union Chemical Co s i t e He also explained that the t e s t i n g i t i n e r a r y is based i n part on r esults from previous sampling therefore a dditional wells may be included i n l a t e r c o l l e c t i o n e f f o r t s

One questioner asked i f there is an explanation for the d i s t r i b u t i o n of contamination and stated that i t seems odd that there appears to be no pattern to the incidence of occurrence

Mr Jasinski responded that EPA and the State do not have a conclusive explanation given the l i m i t e d e x i s ting knowledge Some possible explanations of the pattern of flow have been advanced but there i s no d e f i n i t i v e supporting evidence because instrumentation cannot always detect low levels of contamination and the sampling conditions have been variable He also explained that the flow of ground water i s not yet mapped however EPA and the State are working on g e tting a f u l l picture

Another questioner asked whether i t has been determined whether those wells that tested p o s i t i v e are showing the beginning middle or end of the migrating plume of contamination and he stated that he believes the citizens have the r i g h t to know t h i s f a c t

Mr Jasinski replied that from his review of a l l the data and h i s t o r y of test r e s u l t s t h i s determination cannot be made but w i l l be the subject of investigation during the RIFS

Revising Sample SizeStructure

Several questions were asked concerning the current and future structure andor size of the sampling universe One questioner asked why a l l 43-45 wells w i l l not continue to be tested because the flow of ground water has not yet been determined another stated that complete sampling would be worthwhile i f only for the residents peace of mind Another questioner asked whether EPA w i l l include a well i n the sampling round i f the resident s p e c i f i c a l l y requests that hisher well to be tested and a second followed up by asking given the p o t e n t i a l flow of contamination how w i l l EPA know i f a well i s contaminated without te s t i n g i t s p e c i f i c a l l y

Mr Jasinski explained that the most recent sampling structure has been selected to focus on the

-8shy

suspected f i e l d of contaminationthe r e s i d e n t i a l wells chosen for sampling l i e along Route 17 and are bordered by homes whose wells have tested posi t i v e He strlaquoampsed that a l l 45 of the o r i g i n a l r e s i d e n t i a l wells i n the test have been tested twice and only 5 i n each have showed low levels of contaminants He indicated that the results of the t h i r d round of sampling w i l l determine i n part the sampling f i e l d for the fourth round of sampling and explained tha t as a r e s u l t the exact wells to be included that time have not yet been determined Therefore i f EPA detects contamination i n nearby wells consideration w i l l be given to t e s t i n g others nearby i n the next sampling round

Next Sampling

Questions were asked regarding when the next round of sampling i s scheduled to begin and whether a l l the re s i d e n t i a l wells w i l l be tested at that time

Mr Jasinski replied that EPA w i l l probably choose 25 wells to sample depending upon the results of previous tests however consideration has been given to sampling additional wells i f the pattern of contamination appears to be changing

SITE HISTORY

One attendee made several comments on the s i t e h i s t o r y portion of the EPA Fact Sheet on the Union Chemical Co s i t e These included

The fact sheet states that most on-site a c t i v i t y took place w i t h i n a 125-acre area when instead the area of heaviest a c t i v i t y was approximately 5 acres EPA should therefore also focus i t s investigations on other contaminated areas including the septic system bulldozed barrels the former o i l bulking tanks Quiggle Brook the swamp and the s i t e garage

The h i s t o r y of s i t e incineration i s incomplete In r e a l i t y b o i l e r incineraters were i n continuous operation at the Union Chemical Company from 1967 to 1980 the f i r s t of which became operative i n 1967 the second i n 1968 and the t h i r d i n 1970 The commenter also expressed general concern about a i r emissions from the b o i l e r s and the experimental incinerator s t a t i n g that the areas where emission ash was dumped probably contain high levels of heavy metals and other contaminants

-9shy

Mr Jasinski explained that EPA and DEP are looking at_and w i l l continue to investigate other s i t e areas however he stated that after the fence was constructed most a c t i v i t i e s took place w i t h i n the fenced area He also explained that the fact sheet of necessity had to condense a large amount of s i t e information so that i t was unable to explain a l l the relevant d e t a i l s

GROUND WATER

There were specific questions asked regarding ground-water monitoring results as well as c l a r i f i c a t i o n requested regarding the flow of ground water One questioner asked what contaminants were found i n monitoring well No B-7 east of the Brook and followed up by asking whether the contamination was i n the bedrock Another attendee requested c l a r i f i c a t i o n on the di r e c t i o n of the contamination movement and commented that EPA and DEP should recognize that o f f - s i t e migration i s occurring and that an abatement e f f o r t should begin concurrent with the RIFS S t i l l another asked how bedrock contamination migrates

Several panelists responded to t h i s series of questions Ms Kuhns of Maine DEP answered that the November test revealed methylethyketone at 15 ppb i n well No B-7 however she explained that since i t has not been confirmed with follow-up sampling additional t e s t i n g i s needed Regarding contamination i n the bedrock Ms Kuhns said that the presence of contaminants has been detected but that i t s extent i s not known She also responded to the comment regarding ground-water flow explaining that there i s c urrently no conclusive evidence on i t s d i r e c t i o n Mr Jasinski explained that EPA and DEP have discussed with the s e t t l i n g parties the p o s s i b i l i t y of stepping up abatement e f f o r t s including modifying the interceptor trench Ms Kuhns also explained b r i e f l y that migration through bedrock can occur through fractures and cracks

Miscellaneous

A respresentative of the Concerned Citizens of Hope requested c l a r i f i c a t i o n regarding the l e t t e r and meeting on provision of alternative drinking water to the community The commentor explained that the Concerned Citizens of Hope had w r i t t e n a l e t t e r to the Town of Hope asking for support of a request to EPA to finance alternative drinking water The commentor further stated that the group did not receive a

-10shy

response from the Town Office but did receive a response d i r e c t l y from US EPA which denied the request The representative explained that the Concerrtsecta~Citizens had not intended to submit t h i s l e t t e r to EPA but that i t s submission had been made by the Town of Hope In addition the Concerned Citizens representative indicated that t h i s issue had become unduly complex and was hopeful that the request for water provisions and a meeting between c i t i z e n s and o f f i c i a l s i s s t i l l a p o s s i b i l i t y

Both EPA and DEP representatives responded Mr Jasinski said that EPA received the l e t t e r however at t h i s time EPA does not believe that an a l t ernative water source i s needed and cannot comply with the request Ms Kuhns said that DEP i s s t i l l supporting the p o s s i b i l i t y of a meeting

There were some general questions regarding the use of water p u r i f y i n g systems on residents taps One questioner stated that Dr Leppe recommended i n s t a l l i n g water p u r i f i e r s and asked who would pay for t h i s service another asked about the effectiveness of an activated carbon f i l t e r s t i l l another asked about the effectiveness of a i r f i l t r a t i o n as a method of treatment

Responses were provided by several panelists Mr Jasinski explained that EPA does not consider an activated carbon f i l t e r necessary given the current levels of contamination and therefore EPA w i l l not pay for the i n s t a l l a t i o n Louise House from ATSDR stated the purifyer w i l l not remove VOCs only s a l t s and cautioned residents who do i n s t a l l such a system to give s t r i c t attention to i t s maintenance Mr Webster from US EPA explained that the effectiveness depends upon the standards the u n i t had to meet and that standards vary from state to state In addition he explained that other compounds involved might hinder i t s effectiveness and that no one has ever t r i e d to t r e a t for contaminants i n the 2 ppb range therefore the effectiveness of treatment method is not known

40 UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

Questions regarding the t h i r d round of r e s i d e n t i a l well sampling were not answered because the results have not come back from the lab

-11 shy

50 COMMITMENTS MADE

Mr Jasinski committed to providing the residents with results^Trom the t h i r d round of r e s i d e n t i a l well sampling as soon as the data are available He w i l l send the results to each household whose well was tested and the information w i l l be provided i n the next s i t e fact sheet

60 SUGGESTED FOLLOW-UP COMMUNITY RELATIONS ACTIVITIES

Upcoming community relations a c t i v i t i e s include the following

Update the Union Chemical Site Mailing L i s t

Once the RIFS work plan has been f i n a l i z e d EPA and DEP w i l l hold a public meeting to provide d e t a i l s on the RIFS a c t i v i t i e s

The most recent DEP sampling of selected Union Chemical monitoring wells took place in November 1987 (wells B-7 B-8 B-10 B- l l and B-12 were sampled see the site map on page 5 for well placement) Results indicate that on-site wells continue to show high levels of volatile organic compounds In addition theNovember sampling showed low levels of volatile organic compounds in two monitoring wells (B-7 and B-ll) located east of Quiggle Brook one a bedrock well (B-7) and the other (B-ll) shows volatile organic compounds in water taken very near the ground surface

settling parties agreed to reimburse EPA and the State of Maine for the majority of past response costs inshycurred and to finance the upcoming RIFS

The settling parties have established a $125 million trust fund to pay for the RIFS and oversight of these acshytivities Additionally a group of trustees has been selected to manage the fund and a Steering Committee has been formed to monitor the trustees interactions with EPA and the State They have also obtained the services of Canonie Environmental to conduct the RJ FS _

The trustees and their contractor may be actively inshyvolved in many of the public meetings held concerning the site They will be available to answer questions the

Another aspect of an RI is the determination of the extent of contamination Sampling is conducted to see if hazardous substances are present both on and off the site in the air water and soils The RI also investigatestoxicity volume and form of hazardous substances that are found at and surshyrounding the site

Ultimately EPA selects a cleanup remedy for the site after an FS is conducted and the site community has been given an opportunity to comment on the proposed remedy In an FS numerous technologies are reviewed and evaluated for their effectiveness at the specific site including its setting the nature and volume of wastes and the extent of contamishynant migration However many technologies may not be feasible because the site location makes construction imshypractical or because a technology is too expensive compared to another method with the same effectiveness for protectshying the public health welfare and the environment Thereshyfore the effectiveness of each remedy is Weighed against other considerations to determine its feasibility

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER A legal and enforceable agreement signed between two or more parties such as EPA and potentially responsible parties whereby one party or group of parties agrees to perform or pay the cost of a site cleanup The agreement describes actions to be taken at a site and may be subject to a public comment period Unlike a consent decree an administrative order does not have to be approved by a judge

bullCHLOROFORM Once the chosen anesthetic of many hospitals this colorless volatile liquid is now used as a solvent in lacquers and plastics It is also used in the manufacture of refrigerants in propellants and plastics in anesthetics and pharmaceuticals in fire extinguishers and as a fumigant solvent sweetner and insecticide Chloroform sometimes appears in public water supplies as a byproduct of chlorination

bullDICHLOROETH ANES A colorless liquid that is a comshymon constituent of paint varnish and finish removers Its characteristic odor is sweet and similar to chloroform

GROUND WATER Water in a saturated zone beneath the surface of the earth Ground water occurs in aquifers in Sufficient quantities that it can be used as a drinking water supply for irrigation and other purposes

INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Chemical compounds that do not contain carbon Some familiar inorganic compounds include sodium chloride (NaCl) commonly known as table salt and ammonia (NHj) a common household cleaning fluid

bullMETHYLENE CHLORIDE A colorless liquid with a characteristically sweet odor Common uses include paint stripping and solvent degreasing it is also used in aerosols

photographic film synthetic fibers and textile and leather coatings

bullPOLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBs) A famshyily of organic (carbon-containing) compounds that take a long time to break down into their simpler less harmful chemical components they are therefore persistent in the environment PCBs have been used since 1929 in electrical devices such as insulators and coolants lubricants carbonshyless copy paper adhesives and caulking compounds This family of compounds is versatile due in part to their fire resistent properties

SEMIVOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Carbon-containing chemical compounds that at a relatively low temperature fluctuate between a vapor state (a gas) and a liquid state

SURFACE WATER Bodies of water on the surface of the earth such asrivers lakes and streams

bullTOLUENE A colorless flammable liquid found as a constituent of gasoline and paints adhesive solvents in plasshytic toys and model airplanes dyes and perfumes

bullTRICHLOROETHANE A colorless liquid commonly used as a solvent for chlorinated rubber in chemical laborashytories and is found in various organic materials such as fats oils and resins

bullTRICHLOROETHYLENE A colorless liquid that is commonly used in dry cleaning operations as a refrigerant (it is a heat exchange liquid) in degreasers for grease and wax on cotton and wool as a constituent in chemical dyes and for extracting caffeine from coffee

VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Carbon-conshytaining chemical compounds that vaporize (go into a gaseous state) at a relatively low temperature

STATUS OF THE SETTLING PARTIES WORK PLAN

Canonie Environmental the firm hired by the settling parties to conduct the RIFS for the site submitted a draft work plan to EPA and DEP on December 16 1987 EPA and DEP have conducted an extensive review of this document EPA and DEP are currently submitting detailed comments to the trustees and plan to meet to discuss the comments and the overall RIFS on February 5 1988

NATIONAL PRIORITIES LIST STATUS

The Union Chemical Co site was originally proposed for inclusion on EPAs National Priorities List (NPL) in April 1985 because it met the technical criteria for attaining the NPL At the same time EPA proposed a policy of deferring from the final NPL those sites that could be cleaned up under other enforcement authorishyties such as the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) this policy was finalized in June 1986 Essentially this final NPLRCRA policy states that a facility falling under this category must be bankrupt or must have lost RCRA authorization to operate and have a history of unwillingness to address contamination at
