modified by Section 22a-449(c)-110(a) (2).

(2) The issuance of this Permit does not authorize any injury to persons or property or
invasion of other private rights, or any infringement of state or local law or
regulations.

(C) SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Permit are severable, as specified in 40 CFR
124.16, and if any provisions of this Permit, or the application of any provision of this
Permit to any circumstances is held invalid, the application of such provision to other
circumstances and the remainder of this Permit shall not be affected thereby.

(D) CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Permittee may claim that any information
required to be submitted by this Permit contains or constitutes a trade secret in
accordance with Section 1-210(b) (5) of the CGS.

(E) DUTIES AND REQUIREMENTS

WASTE ANALYSIS PLAN

1.0 WASTE CHARACTERIZATION

1.1 Hazardous and Regulated Waste

Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation, Windsor Locks Facility (HSC; WLOX) generates a


wide variety of waste streams which are managed at the Hazardous Waste Facility
(HWF) on-site. To ensure that the wastes are properly characterized, stored, and
managed, waste analysis must be performed in accordance with the Waste Analysis
Plan in Attachment A of the HWF’s RCRA Part B Permit and the procedures outlined
in this document. This Work Guide is commonly referred to as WL-EHS-GUI-0100-00
and can be used interchangeably with the current nomenclature listed above. Table 1
outlines the types of waste managed at the HWF and their corresponding storage
locations.

1.2 Waste Determinations

Waste determinations are conducted initially on wastes generated from manufacturing


and process activities prior to storage in the HWF. Potential wastes such as non-
product-related materials that exit the operation are also assessed. New materials and
waste accumulation container requests are reviewed per the WLOX EH&S Material &
Facility/Process Modification Review Procedures. The waste determinations are
completed based on the definitions in 40 CFR Part 261, by knowledge of the process,
or by sampling and laboratory analysis. The initial waste characterization for each
waste stream stored at the HWF will be maintained in the facility Operating Record. A
current copy of the waste determination report which is generated through a computer
database is maintained as part of the HWF Operating Record.
Wastes generated on-site are characterized through manufacturer’s information,
process information, and/or laboratory analysis. All wastes are characterized by using
the UTC Waste Characterization Tool, which is provided in Exhibit A, the requirements
of the HWF’s RCRA Part B Permit and the UTC EH&S Standard Work for Waste
Determinations in the U.S., which is provided in Exhibit B. That information is then
input into the WAP database.
Recharacterization of a waste stream each time it is generated is not required because
waste streams are closely tracked at the point of generation. When a new waste
container is requested (per the WLOX EH&S Material & Facility/Process Modification
Review Procedures), prior to issuance of the container the waste stream is
investigated to ensure it is consistent with the current copy of the waste determination
report.

K.1
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

In the following instances, wastes will be reviewed and characterized via knowledge of
process or sampling:
1. A change in a process/operation that impacts the composition of the
waste stream;
2. The addition of a new process/operation; and,
3. Discovery of an unidentified waste.

All wastes profiles will be reviewed annually for verification by sampling or employee
interviews, and recorded in the Database titled “Waste Analysis Plan” (WAP
database). The minimum waste sampling frequency is performed in accordance with
the sampling frequency table presented on page 9 of the UTC EH&S Standard Work
for Waste Determinations in the U.S. (Exhibit B). Waste may be sampled more
frequently based on the results of the annual review.

When characterizing waste, the following parameters are considered:

1. Physical properties;

2. Chemical composition;

3. Compatibility determination (Section 4.0);

4. Degree of hazard (Section 5.0); and

5. Applicable Land Ban disposal treatment standards in accordance with 40


CFR 268.7 (Section 7.0).

6. Variability of waste

Containers of hazardous wastes generated at the HSC facility are tracked by waste
disposal travelers and by computer using the EH&S Desk WIMS program. An example
waste disposal traveler form is provided in Figure 1. Prior to the movement of waste
from the point of generation or an accumulation area to the HWF, a waste disposal
traveler is completed by facility personnel familiar with the waste. At a minimum, this
form identifies the department group generating the waste; the container ID or
machine number; the location; the waste description; and the name and phone
number of the associate responsible for generating the waste. The information
included on the waste disposal traveler allows the waste to be associated with the
corresponding waste stream identified during the waste determination and
appropriately managed. Waste streams that do not have the characterization
parameters identified above are not accepted into the HWF for storage.

1.3 Sampling and Analysis

When necessary for waste characterization, sampling is performed in accordance with


EPA requirements set forth in the latest EPA publication SW-846 “Test Methods for
Evaluating Solid Waste; Physical and Chemical Methods”. Table 2 presents parameter
K.2
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

codes, the rationale for testing, and the test methods to be used for the testing of the
HWF’s hazardous and non-hazardous waste. When necessary, laboratory analysis is
performed at a State Certified analytical lab. Results of chemical analyses are
maintained by the Site EH&S Department.
The Environmental Operations-HWF staff performs waste characterization sampling at
the facility in accordance with the procedure outlined in this document (WL-EHS-GUI-
0100-00 Waste Analysis Plan Procedures). The Site Environmental, Health and
Safety (Site EH&S) staff and/or EH&S consultants also perform sampling of
groundwater and soil and of various materials for asbestos and PCB programs.
Representative sampling from the storage containers follow the procedures outlined in
SW-846. Samples are collected with equipment and techniques capable of obtaining a
representative sample of waste throughout the entire depth of the container. Samples
taken from waste streams with various phases include aliquots from each phase. For
example, if a container is 80 percent liquid and 20 percent sludge, the sample will
contain the same percentage of each phase and/or each phase will be sampled
separately.
When sampling large areas for waste characterization, for example concrete pads
designated for removal, the number of samples taken is based on the square footage
and configuration of the area. Samples from a hopper or roll-off are obtained from the
top, middle, and bottom layers to ensure that the sample is representative of the entire
load. Parameters to be analyzed for are determined on a case by case basis
depending on the historic use of an area and any records of past spills or releases.
Tank systems are periodically sampled for waste characterization. In addition, the
facility identifies, by use of waste disposal travelers and the consolidation reports, all
possible waste streams that have been added to a tank system. The resulting tank
system waste stream carries with it the applicable Connecticut Regulated codes
associated with the waste streams that have been added.
Sampling equipment will vary according to the physical and chemical characteristics of
the waste stream. Table 3 provides a summary of the typical sampling equipment used
for specific waste types. Samples are collected in certified clean wide-mouth glass
jars with Teflon lids, or if applicable, poly containers. Samples are kept refrigerated or
placed in coolers prior to shipment or delivery directly to the lab.
Decontamination of sampling equipment can consist of methanol, nitric acid, and
deionized water. These materials remove organics and metals from the sampling
equipment. In many cases dedicated sampling equipment, such as coliwasa tubes,
are disposed of after each use and do not require decontamination.
Samples are closely tracked by assigning them an identification number. In addition to
the identification number the following information is recorded: sample date, sample
location, description of the waste, and parameters for which the sample will be tested.
If any samples are not immediately analyzed, they are containerized and preserved in
accordance with the methods specified in SW-846, or as required in the specific

K.3

approved test method being utilized. Table 4 provides a list of containerization,


preservation, and holding times. The sample container is labeled with the sample
identification and analytical tests to be conducted. After the sample container is
labeled, the chain-of-custody sheet is completed. An example of the chain-of-custody
sheet is presented in Figure 3. The original results with a copy of the chain-of-custody
are maintained by Site EH&S. The test results/waste analysis and related sampling
documentation will be maintained as part of the HWF Operating Records.
Figure 2 presents the analytical procedures employed to characterize unknown
wastes. The logistics in the flow of the analytics aid in categorizing the waste stream
as well as characterizing it. The flow chart includes specific laboratory tests that can
be carried out to aid in the characterization of the unknown waste.
On-site analysis of wastes at the HWF is not performed. Testing of wastes is limited to
pH screening using pH meters and pH test strips. If performed, this testing is simply
used to field verify the pH of a waste stream. All analysis of waste for characterization
is performed at an off-site certified laboratory. Therefore, a site-specific laboratory
analysis quality assurance/quality control plan is not required. Should actual chemical
analysis be performed on-site a quality assurance/quality control plan will be
developed and maintained for the analyses performed.

2.0 WASTE VERIFICATION

In addition to the initial waste characterization previously described, a secondary


check to verify the proper characterization of the wastes will be carried out. The waste
verification applies to waste streams which include the following:

 All waste chemicals and other materials generated on-site which are stored or
otherwise managed in the HWF. Waste verification for waste chemicals and
other materials generated on-site is done by reviewing records associated with
the waste (i.e., waste disposal traveler).

 Any waste managed within the HWF prior to the transfer of bulking of a waste
stream into a storage tank, container, or container storage area, to confirm that
the contents of the storage tank, container, or other processing area and the
materials are compatible in accordance with Section 4.0 of this document.

Any waste streams that do not have the required characterization and/or do not meet
the verification parameters are not stored in the HWF.

3.0 SPILL CHARACTERIZATION

K.4
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

Residues from spills that occur must be characterized so the resulting wastes can be
properly managed and stored at the HWF.

 Spill residues from known sources – Spill residues from known sources of wastes
in storage at the HWF shall be evaluated or analyzed for the appropriate
parameters referenced in Table 2, Parameters and Rationale. The results from
these evaluations of analyses shall be used to characterize the spill residues.

 Spill residues from Unknown Sources – Spill residues from unknown sources shall
be evaluated in accordance with Figure 2, Analytical Procedure for Unidentified
Waste, to identify the waste, determine the proper waste management and
compatibility group and ensure that sufficient information is obtained for proper
storage or management of the waste. If the material does not fall within the
permitted hazardous waste codes, the material shall not be managed in the HWF
and must be shipped off-site to an approved facility within 90 days.

4.0 COMPATIBILITY EVALUATION


Compatibility evaluations of wastes are necessary to ensure proper management and
storage of wastes in the HWF. Commingling of incompatible waste can result in
undesired and dangerous reactions. To evaluate the potential for such reactions to
occur, waste streams are reviewed for compatibility. Prior to storage in the HWF, all
wastes are categorized and characterized. The wastes are assessed for compatibility
with the container or tank they are stored in, compatibility with other waste stored in
close proximity, and compatibility with the physical structure of the HWF.
All waste is characterized prior to arrival at the HWF, which minimizes the need for
additional testing. The waste characterizations are reviewed and the waste is tested as
needed. Information from the waste disposal traveler forms can be used to identify and
segregate these wastes for storage. In addition to the waste disposal traveler forms,
the SDSs and the Reactivity Group Number (RGN) are both used to determine
compatibility. A chart detailing RGN compatibility is included in Figure 4. RGNs are
assigned to each waste based on its physical and chemical hazards. The RGNs are
then compared to determine if the wastes are compatible. The use of this information
ensures that only compatible wastes are stored together. Table 1 presents a
description of the waste streams generated at the HSC facility. The table lists the
storage area, waste group, waste IDs associated with the waste group/storage area, a
description of typical wastes, and the probable RGNs associated with the waste group.
Wastes are considered incompatible if upon mixing or contact, a reaction may occur
which leads to the following:
 Generation of heat or pressure, fire or explosion, or violent reactions;
 Production of toxic mists, fumes, dusts, or gases in sufficient quantities to
threaten human health or the environment;
 Production of flammable fumes or gases in sufficient quantities to pose a risk of
fire or explosion
K.5
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

 Damage to the structural integrity of the container, containment structure, or


any other structure;
 Threatens human health or the environment.
Storage of wastes at the HWF is arranged to ensure that incompatible wastes are
segregated. For example, acids are stored separate for alkalis. See the facility map
on file at the HWF for layout of HWF. The entire storage area floor has been coated
with a material that is appropriate for the storage of all the waste types stored. If an
area has reached full capacity, the HWF Manager may determine if a container can be
stored with another type of waste. As stated above, this determination is based on the
waste disposal traveler, SDS, laboratory results, and/or the RGN table. For RGN pairs
that may indicate a reaction due to incompatibility, the wastes are segregated and
these drums are moved to another area, as necessary. However, in certain
circumstances the actual hazard of the material may allow for co-storage with a
material that based solely on RGN may be considered incompatible. For example,
non-hazardous waste acid aqueous solution with a pH of 4 will be labeled Waste Acid
but could be stored in the solvents area of the HWF since it is not incompatible with
solvents. When it is known by material knowledge, manufacturer information, process
knowledge, and/or laboratory analysis that a material does not exhibit the reactivity
associated with a particular RGN for the given waste, that RGN is not applied.
Additionally, incompatible RGNs may be assigned to the same waste stream due to
the chemical makeup of the waste. The materials considered incompatible based on
RGN pairs may have been mixed in the same container without an undesired reaction
and are considered “co-located” prior to the waste’s arrival at the HWF. Instances
where the RGN pairs show incompatibility yet waste is still co-located are described in
Section 4.1 below.

4.1 Waste Storage

The following section details the storage arrangement for typical wastes. The RCRA
Part B Permit limits the total volumetric storage capacity of all containers in the storage
area to a total of 55,000 gallons. Secondary containment requirements include a
containment volume of 10% of all waste, or 100% of the largest container, whichever
is greatest. Although some waste may be deemed incompatible by RGN, due to
concentration, or other factors they have been determined to be acceptable for storage
together. Specific examples of incompatible RGN pairs are described below. A
detailed breakdown of waste stored on each rack and the subsequent compatibility
issues are included in Exhibit C - RGN Compatibility Assessment Table.

Rack Storage:
Rack A, Ignitable/Combustible (90 drums) – Miscellaneous liquid flammables such as
paints, resins (non-isocyanate), and adhesives, jet fuel, calibration fluids, aerosol cans,
and hazardous oils will generally be incinerated and stored on this rack since it is
farthest from the Packaging Room, and accessible to fire trucks. These wastes fall
primarily into the RGN of 101- Combustible and Flammable Materials, Miscellaneous

K.6
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

and 29 – Hydrocarbon, Aliphatic, Saturated. There are no incompatible RGN pairs


stored on this rack.
Racks B, C Toxics/Burnables (90 drums) - Typical wastes include solids such as rags
and debris, oil filters, paint filters and miscellaneous burnable solids.. There are no
incompatible RGN pairs stored on Rack B. Rack C has one incompatible RGN pair,
24/106. This incompatibility results in solubilization of toxic substances. This
incompatibility is not an issue as the wastes with these RGNs are not mixed.
Rack D Toxics/Burnables/Universal waste (90 drums) - Typical wastes include solids
such as light bulbs, batteries, and accumulation containers containing aerosols,
adhesives, and catalysts. There are no incompatible RGN pairs stored on this rack.
Rack E Toxics, Sludges (108 drums) - Typical wastes are sludges from machining
operations consisting mainly of aluminum and steel which may contain some cadmium
and chromium. Metal hydroxide sludge and other wastewater treatment sludges
(cake) consist mainly of iron with low amounts of chrome and nickel. Treated metal
powders resulting from additive manufacturing processes may be stored on this rack.
These powders will be treated with mineral oil in a long term storage area (LT90) prior
to entering the HWF, thus the material will not exhibit the characteristics of ignitability
or reactivity and CT regulated waste codes CR02, CR04, and CR05 may be
applicable. There are no elemental metals such as pure sodium or phosphorous which
are extremely reactive. If at any time such extremely reactive metal wastes exist, they
would be isolated from other wastes in a manner similar to the method used for
oxidizer storage. The machine sludges are stored next to the Soil Rack for
compatibility. There are two incompatible RGN pairs on this rack that result in
solubilization of toxic substances; 10/24 and 24/106. This result is not an issue on this
rack because most of the incompatible pair examples have been pre-mixed prior to
disposal and do not show any signs of a hazardous reaction. There are two
incompatible RGN pairs on this rack that result in flammable gas generation and heat
generation; 10/22 and 22/106. The incompatibility of 22/106 originates from dry metal
alloy and water mixtures. The metal powders will not be considered incompatible after
treatment with mineral oil because the oil surrounds the metal alloys to prevent oxygen
and water from reacting with the powder. Therefore this result is not anticipated to be
an issue. The incompatibility of 10/22 originates from caustic solids and metal
powders. Metal powders will be treated with mineral oil prior to entering the storage
rack, therefore it is highly unlikely the metal powders and caustic solids would mix.
Rack F Toxics, Soils (108 drums) - Typically not much waste is stored in this rack due
to the limited amount of waste generated. The Corrective Action Group occasionally
generates waste soils when investigating construction activities that involve
subsurface work. Other typical wastes are soils, sodium bicarbonate, and carbon
canister filters. Treated metal powders resulting from additive manufacturing
processes may be stored on this rack. These powders will be treated with mineral oil in
a long term storage area (LT90) prior to entering the HWF, thus the material will not
exhibit the characteristics of ignitability or reactivity and CT regulated waste codes
CR02, CR04, and CR05 may be applicable. There are two incompatible RGN pairs on
this rack that result in solubilization of toxic substances; 7/24 and 24/106. This result is
K.7
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

not an issue on this rack because many of the incompatible pair examples have been
pre-mixed prior to disposal and do not show any signs of a hazardous reaction. There
is one incompatible RGN pair on this rack that result in flammable gas generation and
heat generation; 22/106. The incompatibility of 22/106 originates from dry metal alloy
and water mixtures. The metal powders will not be considered incompatible after
treatment with mineral oil because the oil surrounds the metal alloys to prevent oxygen
and water from reacting with the powder. Therefore this result is not anticipated to be
an issue.
Rack G Toxics, Aqueous wastes, Universal wastes (108 drums) - Typical wastes are
rinse waters from processes, floor wash water, used electronics, and biomedical
waste. There is one incompatible RGN pair stored on this rack, 24/106. The
incompatibility results in solubilization of toxic substances. This result is not an issue
on this rack because many of the incompatible pair examples have been pre-mixed
prior to disposal and do not show any signs of a hazardous reaction. Additionally, the
concentration of toxic substances is very low.
Rack H Supplies or Toxics (36 drums) - Supplies such as pails, and bags are typically
stored in this rack. Space is available for wastes if needed in the future.

Storage Buildings:
These are self-contained, heated units approximately 15 ft x 10 ft, with 500 gallons of
containment capacity. These are used to store wastes that may be incompatible with
most of the chemical families as indicated on the RGN table.
Acid Storage Building (SSC-2) - This building houses acids such as chromic acid,
phosphoric acid, and fixer from printing. These wastes are isolated since they are
reactive with most chemical families such as caustics, halogenated solvents,
hydrocarbons, and flammables. Separate storage shelves are located inside and used
to store oxidizers that are acidic. There are multiple sets of incompatible RGN pairs
stored in this area, however the incompatibility results is either solubilization of toxic
substances which has already been discussed, and heat generation which is an
inherent physical property when mixing or diluting acids. Since no on-site
neutralization is being performed, it is unlikely that any heat generation will occur
during storage.
Alkaline/Cyanide Storage Building (SSC-1)_- This building houses alkalines such as
ammonia solutions, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. Cyanides are not
used in the plating processes at the HSC facility. These wastes are isolated since
they are reactive with most chemical families such as acids, halogenated solvents,
hydrocarbons, and flammables. Separate storage shelves are located inside and used
to store oxidizers that are alkaline. There are two incompatible RGN pairs stored in
this area, 10/24 and 24/106. The incompatibility results in solubilization of toxic
substances. This result is not expected to be an issue as the wastes are not mixed
and if they were, the result would not present a danger in the area.
PCB/Resin Storage Building (SSC-4 & SSC-5) - This building contains two rooms that
are divided by a ceiling to floor wall, each with separate containment. PCB wastes are
K.8
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

stored in one room while isocyanates are stored in the other. Waste that is classified
as PCB waste (waste that contains 50 parts per million (ppm) of polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs) or is contaminated with material who’s source contained 50 ppm of
PCBs) is managed in drums. This material is stored in the PCB shed located at the
HWF.There is one incompatible RGN pair: 18/106. Wastes with RGN 18 are stored
within SSC-5 and wastes with RGN 106 are within SSC-4. The construction of this
building with two separate rooms prevents wastes with RGN’s 18 and 106 from
coming into contact. All RGN’s within individual storage rooms are compatible.
Incompatible wastes are not co-located.
Storage Building for Water-based Wastes (SSC-6) - This storage building is for water-
based wastes to keep from freezing in the winter. In addition, small, self-contained
cabinets may also be made available for segregating special wastes.

Cabinet Storage:
Flammable Cabinet (SSC-3) - Typical wastes stored in the flammable cabinet are
small containers of flammables and combustibles.
Lab Pack Cabinet Toxics/Others (SSC-7) - This cabinet is used for miscellaneous
wastes that are not corrosive or flammable. This cabinet is used to store toxics or
otherwise hazardous materials requiring segregation (provided that RGN’s are
compatible). Separate containers are located inside of the cabinet to provide
segregation.

Drum Load Staging Area:


This area is used to stage containers prior to shipment for proper treatment and
disposal. Containers are removed from designated storage areas at which time proper
DOT shipping labels are affixed to each container.

Peroxides:
These are typically segregated and stored in a refrigerator since they are temperature
sensitive. The temperature range at which the organic peroxide can be safely stored
must be identified on the container.

Waste in Tank Systems:

HSC bulks waste in tank systems. Currently, there are two waste tanks at the HWF.
These tanks and the typical wastes stored in them are described below.
Non-Hazardous Tank I.D. 121A (a.k.a 121 in database) - This tank previously
contained flammable wastes. Partial closure of tank 121A was achieved on August
15, 2013 and the tank was repurposed for storage of non-hazardous process waters
and coolants.. Typical wastes include FPI rinsewaters, glycols, floor stripping and
wash waters. These waters are sent off-site for treatment.
Used Oil: Non-Hazardous Combustible Liquids/Oils I.D 121B (a.k.a 122 in database) -
Typical wastes are high flash petroleum based cleaners, preservative oils, various

cutting, lubrication and hydraulic oils, and other metal working fluids. The used oils are
sent off-site for recycling.

HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

5.0 DEGREE OF HAZARD DETERMINATION

In addition to characterizing each waste, prior to storage at the HWF the degree of
hazard for each material must be determined. The degree of hazard determination
can be made based on the following methods:

 Review of the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) associated with the waste. This can
include the SDS for the primary ingredients/virgin materials in the waste. The
SDS includes information on the physical and chemical hazards associated with
the material and can be used to determine the applicable degree of hazard.

 Using an NFPA Standard (e.g., NFPA 704, NFPA 325M, NFPA 49, NFPA 430,
NFPA 432, NFPA 55, etc.) a determination can be made on the applicable
degree of hazard and/or hazard class rating for each of the primary ingredients
in the wastes.

 Additional methods for assessing hazards such as HMIS or GHS classification


information may be used to determine the degree of hazard.

When determining the degree of hazard in a mixture containing two or more


chemicals, there are two possible options for the determination:

1. Obtain the individual degree of hazard rating for each component using the
methods described above. The mixture can be assigned the degree of hazard
which represents the most severe degree of hazard rating. If an individual
component does not have a degree of hazard rating, one can be assigned using
the NFPA 704 quantitative or qualitative determination method (or another
approved method). The selection and assignment of method and degree of hazard
rating must be documented in the evaluation.

2. If the principal hazards of the mixture are known, the degree of hazard for the
mixture can be assigned. The method to be used to assign the overall degree of
hazard rating shall be the quantitative or qualitative method described in NFPA
704, or an alternate approved method.

The assignment of the individual degrees of hazards, as well as the overall degree of
hazard for the mixtures must be documented and the record of the determination will
be maintained in the HWF Operating Record until the HWF is closed.

6.0 ANNUAL RECHARACTERIZATION

Each waste is recharacterized three hundred sixty-five (365) days after the initial
waste characterization as described in Section 1.

7.0 WASTE ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS PERTAINING TO LAND DISPOSAL


RESTRICTIONS

As described in Section 1, identification of hazardous waste streams at HSC is


determined by definition or by representative sampling and analysis of the waste. Of
these waste streams it has been determined by knowledge of the process generating
the waste or by analytical results obtained during the initial identification of the waste
that essentially all hazardous waste generated by HSC is subject to the Land Disposal
Restriction (LDR) regulations (40 CFR 268). Current practice at Hamilton Sundstrand
is to treat all hazardous waste as though it is subject to the LDR regulations. A flow
chart for determining applicable treatment standards and Underlying Hazardous
Constituents (UHCs) is presented in Figure 5.
HSC is required to document the LDR applicability in the waste determination. These
records are maintained in the operating record. An example LDR Notification Form is
provided in Figure 6. The following information must be documented for all hazardous
wastes:
1. Treatability group
2. Significant hazardous waste codes
3. Regulated hazardous constituents known to be present
4. For wastes which are characteristically hazardous, UHCs must be identified.
Wastes that are listed, or wastes that are characteristic but are being treated at a
Clean Water Act Treatment Facility or equivalent, are not subject to review for UHCs.
Otherwise, the wastes will be reviewed for UHCs.

INSPECTION SCHEDULE

As a permitted TDSF, Hamilton Sundstrand is required to have a written inspection


schedule in accordance with Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies (RCSA) section
22a-44(c)-104 incorporating by reference 40 CFR 270.14(b)(5) and 264.15(b).

1. CURRENT INSPECTION PROGRAM


The Hamilton Sundstrand Part B Permitted Hazardous Waste Facility (HWF) and
related options are routinely inspected to monitor compliance with applicable
regulations and to prevent the release hazardous waste constituents to the environment
and any threats to human health.

1.1 General Description


Hamilton Sundstrand personnel perform inspections at the HWF of the following:
hazardous and non-hazardous waste containers (including roll-off containers), non-
hazardous waste tanks, loading/unloading areas, waste management related
activities (such as the waste compactor), and emergency equipment and supplies.
The results of these inspections are recorded on inspection checklists. Copies of the
current inspection checklists are included in Exhibit L-1.
Information on the inspection checklists includes the inspector's name and signature, the
date and time of the inspection, items to be inspected, deficiencies found, and
observations or corrective actions. If a deficiency is noted, appropriate and complete
information is recorded, including a description of the problem, the nature of the repair or
remedial action needed and the time-frame the repair or corrective action is to be
conducted (non-emergency or immediate).
Non-emergency maintenance refers to repairs not immediately required to prevent a
threat to human health or the environment. If an inspection reveals that non-emergency
maintenance is needed, the corrective action will be implemented as soon as possible to
preclude further damage and reduce the need for emergency repairs. If a release to the
environment or threat of explosion occurs during the course of an inspection or any time
between inspections, the inspector will notify the Emergency Coordinator per the
Contingency Plan and remedial action will be immediately taken.

The Subpart CC compliance annual inspections include the completion of one
inspection log. The inspection log documents 40 CFR 264 Subpart CC inspections for
the compactor unit. Exhibit L-1 contains the work instructions and the inspection
checklist for the unit requiring Subpart CC inspection. A description of the Subpart CC
inspection is presented below.

1.5.1 Compactor Subpart CC Compliance Checklist


The compactor requires annual assessment for 40 CFR 264 Subpart CC air emission
requirements to ensure volatile organics are not emitted to the atmosphere. A
photoionization detector (PID) or equivalent instrument will be used to monitor vapor
emissions from potential system release points (e.g., unit door, control devices).
Emission monitoring will be performed, at a minimum, on an annual basis.
It should be noted that as a permit requirement, Hamilton Sundstrand is required to
manage hazardous waste in containers meet the DOT requirements promulgated in 49
CFR 173 and 49 CFR 178. Since Hamilton Sundstrand does not perform stabilization
in containers nor use containers greater than 121 gallons in light materials service,
Subpart CC compliance requirements for containers outside the compactor area will be
met through the use of DOT-compliant containers.

2. RECORD RETENTION
Inspections are conducted and recorded as described herein and inspection records
are maintained as a component of the HWF Operating Record.
The inspection checklists may periodically be revised or reformatted, without changes to
the scope of the inspection. In the event Hamilton Sundstrand wishes to modify the
scope of the inspections or remove items identified in the current inspection checklists, a
permit modification will be formally requested.

HWF Daily Inspection Checklist
Work Instruction
The Hazardous Waste Facility (HWF) Daily Inspection Checklist is the document used to document compliance
with the areas in the HWF listed below:
 Tank Storage Areas
 Tank Monitoring Equipment
 Tank System Sensors
 Loading and Unloading Areas
 Staging Area
 Pre-Transport Requirements
For each of the inspected areas, a series of questions associated with the required inspection items must be answered
to document the status of the containers and/or the storage area. The questions are presented below with the
conditions along with guidance to properly answer the question.

Inspections are completed daily on normally scheduled operating days; Monday through Friday, excluding
weekends, company recognized holidays, and during adverse weather conditions recognized by the Governor of
Connecticut.

TANK STORAGE AREAS (T-121A and T-121B)

 Are the tanks marked with the words describing the contents?
Verify the non-hazardous tank (T-121A) is marked with the words describing the contents. Verify the combustible
tank (T-121B) is marked with the words describing the contents and marked with the words “used oil”. If the tank is
marked properly, place a “” in the Status column. If the tank is not marked properly, place an “X” in the Status
column and arrange to have the proper markings applied to the tank. Document the corrective actions taken and the
date the actions were completed at the bottom of the form.

 Is the tank system in good condition, including piping and tank supports (No evidence of leaks or
corrosion)?
Each tank must be checked to make sure it is in good condition and that corrosion is not present. Also check the
tank supports to ensure they are not corroding, cracked or otherwise defective. Any issues must be documented and
reported to the Environmental Operations supervisor for corrective action. If the tank system is in good condition,
place a “” in the Status column. If the tank system is not in good condition, place an “X” in the Status column.
Document all corrective actions taken and the date the actions were completed at the bottom of the form.

 Is the area free of spills/leaks?


Each tank must be checked for spills/leakage. Look completely around each tank checking the seams for any
leakage, as well as the piping going to the pump stations. Always look around the bottom of the tank and on the
floor surface for any leakage and, if necessary, report leaks per WI 202. If the area is free of spills/leaks, place a
“” in the Status column. If there is evidence of spills or leaks, place an “X” in the Status column.
If a spill is detected within the tank containment area:
1. Immediately stop addition of waste and find the cause.
2. Within 24 hours (or if demonstrated at earliest practical time) remove as much waste from tank as needed to stop
leak and to allow repair. Major repairs require certification.
3. Remove spill immediately, or at least within 24 hours (includes precipitation)
4. If there is a release to the environment, notify the appropriate entities per WI 202 (within 24 hours to DEEP spill
division; within 15 days to enforcement division, unless < 1 pound and cleaned up immediately).

HWF Daily Inspection Checklist
Work Instruction
 Is the containment system in good condition (no cracks or erosion of coating)?
The purpose of the epoxy coated concrete floor and berm is to contain any released material and to prevent a release
into the environment. You must walk around the entire area checking the floor and berm for damage, erosion or
cracks, and for deterioration of the epoxy coating. You must make sure that the floor and berm will prevent any
liquid spillage from being released into the environment.
If the coating is in good condition, place a “” in the Status column. If there is evidence of deterioration of the
coating, place an “X” in the Status column. Clean any spill residues found with the solutions found in Tables III-1

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose and Scope

This Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan (Plan) has been prepared for the Hazardous Waste
Facility (HWF) operated by Hamilton Sundstrand at their manufacturing plant located at 1
Hamilton Road in Windsor Locks, Connecticut. This Contingency Plan satisfies the
preparedness, prevention and contingency planning requirements promulgated in the Resource,
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste regulations, including Title 40 Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 264 Subpart D and 40 CFR Part 264 Subpart C. In response
to these regulations, this Plan has been developed to guide facility response efforts in the event
of an emergency. The Plan objective is to provide procedures/protocols to substantially reduce
hazards to human health or the environment from fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or
non-sudden release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface
water.

1.2 General Facility Description

Hamilton Sundstrand maintains an approximately 300-acre facility located in Windsor Locks,


Connecticut. The property is bound to the south and west by Connecticut Route 20 and
residential properties, to the north by Schoephoester Road and Bradley International Airport, and
to the east by woodland and commercial properties. A site location map is provided as Figure 1.
The Site is developed with numerous structures including manufacturing, office, and operations
support buildings, as well as paved parking lots and landscaped areas. A Site Plan for the facility
is provided as Drawing 1.

1.3 Description of Industrial Activity

There are various processes at the facility which generate hazardous wastes and/or non-
hazardous wastes. Principal activities at the facility include the design and manufacture of
aerospace components such as electronic components, space suits, space shuttle/space station life
support systems, propellers, jet engine fuel control systems, guidance systems and aircraft
environmental control systems.

1.4 Waste Inventory and Storage Locations

Hazardous, non-hazardous, and universal wastes generated from site activities are stored in the
HWF located on the southwest portion of the campus. The HWF totals approximately 15,000
square feet and is primarily a covered, unheated storage area with a concrete base coated with
epoxy resin. Chemical storage in the HWF is divided into eight drum storage racks (designated
Racks A through H), two lab pack cabinets for small-quantity wastes, four self-contained storage
units (referred to as “condos”), a 30 cubic-yard roll-off container, a flammables cabinet, and two
6,000-gallon aboveground storage tanks for used oil and non-hazardous liquid, respectively.
Each storage area within the HWF is marked with signs describing the chemicals or wastes
stored in the area.

All hazardous wastes are stored in Department of Transportation (DOT) approved shipping
containers that are compatible with the materials being stored. Non Hazardous liquids are stored
in a tank adjacent to the HWF Packaging Room. Containers remain closed at all times except
when adding or removing wastes. Adequate aisle space is provided to facilitate weekly container
inspections and emergency access and egress. Incompatible waste streams are separated as
appropriate. All containerized wastes generated at the facility are shipped from the southwest
loading dock located adjacent to the Staging Area. Non-hazardous liquids and waste oils stored
in the tank units are transferred for shipment through piping located at the southeast corner of the
HWF.

The hazardous wastes handled at the Site are identified and characterized in accordance with
federal and state regulations. Waste determination documentation and profiles are maintained at
the facility for review by CTDEEP. Guidance for classification of characteristically hazardous
waste is provided in Appendix A.

The types of waste streams generated at the facility and potentially stored at the HWF are as
follows:
Storage Maximum Maximum Major Typical Hazardous and Connecticut-
Area Number of Capacity in Hazard Type Regulated Wastes
Containers Gallons
Ignitable and combustible liquids such as
Ignitable and

2. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN

2.1 Emergency Coordinators

The Emergency Coordinators have been designated based on their familiarity with the facility
and the hazardous waste generation and management. The Emergency Coordinators are trained
in accordance with Hamilton Sundstrand training programs to take action in the event of an
emergency at the facility. The Emergency Coordinators are familiar with all aspects of this Plan,
the operations and activities of the facility, the location and characteristics of wastes handled, the
location of facility records, the facility layout, and the location and use of all emergency
equipment. The names and addresses of the Emergency Coordinators along with home
telephone numbers, office telephone numbers, and cell phone numbers are listed in Table 1. This
table will be maintained and updated in response to facility personnel changes.

2.2 Duties and Responsibilities of the Coordinator

The Primary Emergency Coordinator (or Alternate Emergency Coordinator if the Primary
Coordinator is unavailable) is authorized to commit the necessary resources, equipment, and
personnel to carry out this Plan in order to deal with an emergency situation that may arise at the
HWF. At all times, at least one Emergency Coordinator will be present at the facility or on call
and capable of reaching the facility in time to respond effectively to any potential emergency.

Any person discovering a spill, fire, explosion, or any unplanned release of hazardous waste
constituents to the air, soil, or surface water, must immediately notify their Supervisor, who will
immediately notify the Emergency Coordinator. The Emergency Coordinator must immediately
perform the following actions:

 Evaluate the emergency and decide whether to implement the Contingency Plan.

 When applicable, activate internal facility communication systems or alarms to notify all
facility personnel of the emergency and of an evacuation.

 Ensure that all employees have evacuated the building.

 Whenever there is a release, fire, or explosion of hazardous waste; identify the character,
exact source, amount, and the size of the area impacted by any released materials. This
may be done by observation, review of facility records, or by chemical analysis.

M.5
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

 Assess the potential hazards to human health or the environment that may result from the
release, including fires or explosions. The assessment will consider both the direct and
indirect effects of the incident (e.g., the effects of any toxic, irritating, or asphyxiating
gases that are generated or the effects of any hazardous surface runoff from contaminated
water or chemical agents used to control fire, and heat induced explosions).

 Supervise the emergency response activities.

 Notify outside emergency, state, and local agencies of the emergency with designated
response roles if their help is needed.

 Based on the severity of the emergency, supervise the evacuation of local areas outside
the facility if the local police or fire department officials order an evacuation.

 Coordinate all reasonable measures necessary to respond in a defensive fashion without


actually trying to stop the release (i.e., contain the release from a safe distance, keep it
from spreading, and prevent exposures) and ensure that fires and explosions do not
spread by removing or isolating containers of incompatible materials and taking other
similar defensive actions.

 As appropriate dispatch contractors for cleanup operations and supervise all cleanup
operations performed by contractors.

 Perform follow-up emergency reporting procedures.

 Maintain response equipment and supplies.

All recovered materials will be properly containerized under the supervision of the Emergency
Coordinator. The Emergency Coordinator must also ensure that no material or waste, that may
be incompatible with the released material, is stored in the affected areas until cleanup
procedures are completed. A guide for determining chemical incompatibility is included in
Appendix B.

3. SPILL AND LEAK PREVENTION

Hamilton Sundstrand has implemented spill prevention procedures to minimize the


potential harm to human health and the environment. The information presented below is
a summary of Hamilton Sundstrand’s spill prevention policies as they pertain to
hazardous wastes. Additional information regarding preventative measures implemented
at the facility is provided in Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Spill Prevention, Control, and
Countermeasure Plan.

3.1 Preventative Measures

Secondary containment is provided for all hazardous waste containers which contain
liquids located in the HWF. Any releases occurring from hazardous waste liquid
containers located within this area would be contained within the provided secondary
containment.

All secondary containment provided for liquid hazardous waste containers located within
the HWF have a capacity equal to or greater than ten percent of the total storage volume
or 100 percent of the volume of the single largest container. If incompatible hazardous
waste liquids are stored (i.e., flammable and corrosive liquids), the containers are
segregated in different storage racks or in isolated containment units (condos) within the
HWF. Hazardous waste liquids are contained in 55-gallon closed-top drums, to minimize
the potential for a spill.

The non-hazardous liquids storage tank and the non-hazardous used oil tank are both of
double-walled construction and are located in a concrete-walled annex that is equipped
with liquid level sensors to detect overfill and leak conditions. The tanks are equipped
with high level and low level liquid level sensors. Transfer piping associated with the
storage tanks is also double walled. In the event of a failure of the inner wall of a transfer
pipe, liquids would flow in the outer wall of the pipe to a containment sump equipped
with liquid level sensors. The tanks undergo periodic integrity testing.

Wastes contained in tanks are periodically shipped off-site by a licensed waste hauler.
To minimize the potential for a release during transfer, waste haulers and Hamilton
Sundstrand personnel will adhere to the following standardized transfer procedures
during all shipments and deliveries:

M.7
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

 Transfer operations for shipping wastes and receiving virgin product will be
supervised by Hamilton Sundstrand personnel;

 Truck drivers will coordinate with appropriate Hamilton Sundstrand before


transfer begins;

 Delivery truck wheels will be chocked before transfer begins;

 Catch basin covers will be placed over down gradient catch basins prior to
transferring liquids when it is determined necessary, and absorbents will be
readily available to contain any spills that may occur;

 The driver and Hamilton Sundstrand personnel will remain present and attentive
at all times during transfer.

3.2 Special Material Storage Considerations

Organic Peroxide Storage

Hamilton Sundstrand will comply with the following requirements when managing
organic peroxide in the HWF:

 The chemical name will be posted on the container utilized to manage the organic
peroxide;

 The temperature range at which the organic peroxide can be safely managed will
be identified and posted on the container utilized to manage the organic peroxide;
and

 Any container containing organic peroxide wastes will be kept in the designated
storage cabinet or a refrigerator as specified by the manufacturer.

Ignitable Wastes

Hamilton Sundstrand will ensure that containers holding ignitable or reactive waste are
located at least 15 meters (50 feet) from the property line and will not manage any
ignitable waste at the HWF unless the waste is protected from any condition that may
cause the waste to ignite. Hamilton Sundstrand will make allowances for the grounding

M.8
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

of any containers of ignitable materials stored or managed in the HWF at least during the
addition and removal of wastes to and from containers.

3.3 Material Compatibility

Hazardous waste containers will be selected by the Environmental Health & Safety
Office based on the characteristics of the waste added to the container. Additionally,
incompatible wastes will not be co-mingled within the same waste container. A guide for
determining material incompatibility is provided as Appendix B.

Specifically, Hamilton Sundstrand will not mix or commingle a waste specified in 40


CFR 264, Appendix V, Group A with a waste specified in Group B. In addition,
Hamilton Sundstrand will not place a waste listed in Group A with a waste listed in
Group B in a container or a tank that has not been decontaminated and that previously
held an incompatible waste, product or other material.

Hamilton Sundstrand will ensure that at all times hazardous wastes from a given
hazardous waste compatibility group be separated from materials from a different
compatibility group (incompatible wastes or other materials), or protected from them by
means of dike, berm, wall or other device. The staging area compatibility determination
will be in accordance with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 177.848I, Hazardous
Materials Load and Segregation Chart.

3.4 Inspection and Monitoring Program

To minimize the chance of a release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents


to the environment, Hamilton Sundstrand has developed and implemented an inspection
schedule for hazardous waste container storage, emergency and personal protective
equipment, and waste container loading/unloading areas. Containers located within the
HWF are checked for physical integrity, leaks or corrosion, and correct labeling.
Secondary containment systems are inspected for cracks and signs of waste container
leakage. The inspection of the HWF, 90 day storage areas, and outlying satellite
accumulation areas are done on a weekly basis. The inspection of emergency and
personal protective equipment is also done on a weekly basis. Waste container
loading/unloading areas are inspected on the day of a waste shipment. Examples of the
inspection forms are included in Hamilton Sundstrand’s Hazardous Waste Facility

M.9
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

Procedures. Copies of the inspection schedule and inspection forms are maintained for a
minimum of three years.

If, during the course of the inspection, the inspector observes a problem, it will be noted
on the appropriate form and the inspector will notify the appropriate person. A
subsequent corrective action will be entered when the situation is rectified with
appropriate reference to the date on which the deficiency was discovered.

3.5 Housekeeping Program

Hamilton Sundstrand employs good facility housekeeping practices to reduce the


potential for accidental spills and ensure a safe work place for its employees. Good
housekeeping practices employed at this facility include:

 Maintaining adequate aisle space throughout the facility to facilitate transfer


activities and emergency response;

 Keeping waste and chemical storage areas free of debris and obstructions;

 Keeping aisle ways and floors clear, dry and in good repair;

 Cleaning leaks and incidental spills immediately so as not to create a slip hazard;

 Maintaining company vehicles to minimize leaks, and

 Keeping paved areas clean and free of debris.

It is the responsibility of all Hamilton Sundstrand employees to maintain their respective


workplaces in a clean and orderly manner. Department supervisors are responsible for
ensuring that employees adhere to good housekeeping practices at all times. Work areas
will be periodically inspected for deficiencies in cleanliness and good physical
appearance.

3.6 Emergency Power/Backup

The fire alarm system and exit signs are capable of operating under emergency power
conditions from battery power backup supply. The HWF has a backup generator capable
of supplying power to various systems, as needed.

WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

3.7 Employee Training Program

To comply with state and federal regulations, Hamilton Sundstrand has developed a
comprehensive employee training program designed to “ensure that facility personnel are
able to respond effectively to emergencies by familiarizing them with emergency
procedures, emergency equipment, and emergency systems”. At a minimum, all
employees shall be made aware of the need to dial 1-911 from a facility phone or (860)
654-1911 from a cell phone in the event of an emergency. All employees must also be
familiar with primary and secondary evacuation routes from the facility. Awareness,
hazard recognition, and emergency notification training is the responsibility of the
Environment, Health & Safety division.

All personnel who perform hazardous waste-related activities, and/or are responsible for
ensuring that the facility’s waste management procedures comply with applicable
regulations must receive hazardous waste training. Employees must successfully
complete the hazardous waste training program within six months after their date of hire,
or their assignment to a new position within the facility. In addition, facility personnel
must take part in an annual review of the initial training program. This annual review will
incorporate any changes in regulatory requirements or the facility’s waste management or
emergency procedures.

Hamilton Sundstrand’s hazardous waste training program is intended to teach employees


hazardous waste management procedures relevant to their positions and duties, and
ensure that they are able to perform their duties in compliance with applicable
regulations. The training program consists of both in-house classroom training and on-
the-job training. Employees may additionally be provided with additional off-site
classroom training. For current employees, all training records as they pertain to
hazardous waste, including initial training and annual review, will be kept at the facility.
The records of former employees will be maintained for a minimum of three years.

Elements of Hamilton Sundstrand’s hazardous training program include the following:

 Hazardous Waste Regulations;

 Waste Determinations;

 Container Management (storage, labeling/marking, compatibility);

M.11
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

4. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCEDURES

4.1 Implementation

The decision to initiate an emergency response is made by the Emergency Coordinator upon
immediate awareness and assessment of a spill, fire, explosion, or release of hazardous waste or
hazardous waste constituents that could threaten human health or the environment. Upon
notification, the Emergency Coordinator will immediately proceed to the area of the incident to
assess the situation and make the decision to what extent emergency response should be
implemented.

The Emergency Coordinator has the authority to commit the resources required to carry out
emergency hazardous waste responses and to implement the Contingency Plan. All personnel
identified as participants in the implementation of the Contingency Plan and key management
personnel have been provided with copies of the Contingency Plan as well as training in its
implementation.

Specific emergency response procedures applicable to the facility are described and/or
referenced in the sections below. The conditions under which the Emergency Coordinator may
implement the Contingency Plan include the following:

 Fire.

 Explosion.

 Imminent danger of a Fire or Explosion involving hazardous materials resulting in the


igniting of hazardous wastes or release of toxic materials.

 A spill that could result in release of flammable liquids or vapors, thus causing a fire or
explosion hazard.

 Spills that could cause the release of toxic liquids or fumes which harm employees.

Other factors that are considered prior to the implementation of emergency procedures are:

 Past experience.

 Specific process operation.

 Location.

 Inherent danger of release.

M.14
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

 Ability to contain and mitigate.

 Potential hazards to human health and the environment.

Summary information on the general classes of hazardous materials that may be encountered
during an emergency scenario is included in Appendix A. The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for a
particular material should be referenced for information concerning the specific properties,
hazard data, and special precautions and procedures recommended by the manufacturer. SDSs
for all hazardous chemicals used in the facility are accessible to all employees.

4.2 Countermeasures

4.2.1 Incidental Spills

Minor releases which are incidental in nature, and which may occur during normal operations,
are not considered emergencies and are not covered by this Plan. If incidental releases occur
during normal work practices they will be addressed through normal housekeeping activities of
the employee(s) involved. An incidental release, as defined by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) in 29 CFR 1910.120, is any release where “…the substance can
be absorbed, neutralized, or otherwise controlled at the time of release by employees in the
immediate release area, or by maintenance personnel”. Incidental spills or drips which do
migrate to a drain, outside of a building, or to the atmosphere are to be managed in accordance
with Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Spill/Medical Response & Evacuation Plan.

4.2.2 Non-Incidental Spills

Upon awareness of a non-incidental spill at the HWF (i.e. a spill that is beyond the ability of
employees to contain, or one that moves to a drain, outside the building, or to the atmosphere),
the employees must immediately notify the Emergency Coordinator. The Emergency
Coordinator will determine if the HWF personnel have the ability and proper equipment to
contain the release. If the containment of the release is beyond the capability of the HWF
personnel, the Emergency Coordinator will immediately notify Hamilton Sundstrand Emergency
Services by calling 1-911 from a facility telephone or (860) 654-1911 from a cell phone as stated
in Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Spill/Medical Response & Evacuation Plan. Emergency Services is
staffed 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Once Emergency Services is notified, they will enact
Hamilton Sundstrand’s Integrated Contingency Plan.

M.15
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

Upon receiving notification of a release, fire, or explosion, the Emergency Coordinator must
immediately identify the character, exact source, amount, and extent of any released materials
through observation, review of facility records and manifests, and, if necessary, by chemical
analysis.

The Emergency Coordinator will coordinate the spill cleanup with the Emergency Cleanup
Contractor and will supervise all cleanup activities performed, including collecting and
containerizing the absorbent material and the spilled material for disposal off the site. The
contractor will also clean the spill area, as necessary and collect the cleaning materials for
disposal. The waste must be managed in accordance with all applicable requirements of state
and federal hazardous waste management. Wastes will also be managed according to Hamilton
Sundstrand’s, Hazardous Waste Facility Procedure and Site Waste Management Procedure.

4.2.3 Fires and Explosions

Except for small fires that can be readily extinguished (also known as incipient-stage), fire
suppression actions will be undertaken by Emergency Services. For incipient-stage fires
contained to the area of origin in which no hazardous materials are stored, an employee may
attempt to extinguish the fire using a fire extinguisher provided the employee is properly trained
to do so.

Any employee involved in or observing a fire or explosion shall report it immediately by


activating the nearest fire alarm box and calling extension 1-911 to alert Emergency Services in
accordance with Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Spill/Medical Response & Evacuation Plan. In areas
where no alarm box exists, the individual shall call Emergency Services at extension 1-911.
Emergency Services is staffed 24 hours per day, seven days per week. Upon notification,
Emergency Services will implement Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Integrated Contingency Plan.

If available, trained and designated Site personnel will report to the Emergency Coordinator for
possible assignment to shut down facility electrical power, shut off natural gas, shut down
heating and ventilation systems, or other tasks as requested by the Incident Commander. If
operations are stopped in response to a fire, explosion or release, the Emergency Coordinator or
their designee will monitor for leaks, pressure buildup, gas generation, or ruptures in valves,
pipes, or other equipment, wherever this is appropriate. The Incident Commander is the person
responsible for coordinating all facets of emergency response activities at the scene. The chief
fire department officer typically assumes the role of Incident Commander upon arrival at the
scene.

M.16
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

Actions to prevent the reoccurrence or spread of fires or explosions will include stopping
processes and operations, collecting and containing released waste. The Emergency Cleanup
Contractor will also be contacted to respond to the potential for contaminated runoff from fire
fighting activities.

4.2.4 Utilities Interruption

If there is a loss of electricity, the Emergency Coordinator will contact the electrical provider,
Eversource (previously Connecticut Light & Power), at (860) 947-2000 to determine how long
the facility will be without power. Based on the duration of the power outage, the Emergency
Coordinator may instruct employees to return to work following the incident, or may authorize
employees to leave the HWF. Exit signs remain lit by battery power during outages to guide
employees out of the building if needed. The fire alarm system also remains operational.

4.2.5 Gas Leak

The enclosed portion of the HWF is heated by propane gas. Any employee who observes
indications of a propane gas leak at the facility must immediately notify the Emergency
Coordinator. In the event of an actual propane leak, the Emergency Coordinator will initiate an
immediate evacuation of the facility by activating the fire alarm system and dialing 1-911 from a
facility telephone or (860) 654-1911 from a cell phone to alert Emergency Services. The
Emergency Coordinator will also contact Hamilton Sundstrand Facilities & Services to notify
them of the leak.

Employees may be instructed by the Emergency Coordinator to eliminate ignition sources prior
to evacuating the HWF, provided that it is safe to do so. The Emergency Coordinator may also
instruct employees to assemble at an alternate assembly point if it is believed the gas leak is near
the supply line to the building. Based on instructions from Hamilton Sundstrand Facilities &
Services and/or local emergency response personnel, the Emergency Coordinator may also be
asked to shut off the main propane gas valve located inside the HWF to mitigate potential harm
to life or property.

4.2.6 Medical Emergencies

Hamilton Sundstrand employees who are not specifically engaged by Emergency Services are
not expected to perform rescue or medical/first aid duties. Generally, Emergency Services
personnel will perform these duties as needed. In the event of a medical emergency, Hamilton

M.17
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

Sundstrand employees should immediately notify the Emergency Coordinator and, if necessary,
dial 1-911 from facility phones to notify Emergency Services.

4.3 Internal and External Communications and Alarm Systems

The primary internal emergency communication device used to notify employees of an


evacuation is an audible/visual alarm system. The alarm system can be activated through any of
the pull stations located throughout the HWF. Activation of the fire alarm also alerts Hamilton
Sundstrand Emergency Services of the evacuation. The fire alarm system is tested annually by
Emergency Services to ensure reliability and proper operation.

The secondary internal communication device at the facility is the public address (PA) system
which is used daily to page employees throughout the HWF. The PA system is not routinely
tested since it used daily.

External communication devices used to summon emergency assistance include facility


telephones, two-way radios, and cell phones. The two-way radios carried by HWF personnel are
used for communication between HWF employees and may also be used to alert Emergency
Services.

4.4 Evacuation Plan for Facility Personnel

In the event of an emergency that requires evacuation, the Emergency Coordinator will activate
the internal facility communication system (fire alarm system and/or PA system) to notify all
facility personnel to evacuate. Evacuations of the HWF will be performed in accordance with
Hamilton Sundstrand’s, Spill/Medical Response & Evacuation Plan. Upon evacuating the
building, HWF personnel will congregate at Refuge Area #6.

4.5 Post-Emergency Actions

Immediately after an incident, the Emergency Coordinator shall make arrangements for the
treatment, storage, or disposal of recovered hazardous waste or any other contaminated material.

For hazardous waste incidents requiring implementation of the Contingency Plan, the Emergency
Coordinator must ensure that in the affected areas of the facility:

 No waste that may be incompatible with the released material is treated, stored, or
disposed of until cleanup procedures are completed.

M.18
HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT

 All emergency equipment is cleaned and fit for its intended use before operations are
resumed.

The EPA Regional Administrator, the Commissioner of the DEEP, and appropriate local
authorities must be notified that the facility is in compliance with the above before operations are
resumed. Details of the Contingency Plan incident must be recorded in the facility operating
record. Post-incident written notification requirements are described in Section 5 – Reporting
Requirements.

4.6 Emergency Equipment

Hamilton Sundstrand maintains fire-fighting and spill response equipment located throughout the
HWF. Portable fire suppression systems are located throughout the building, along with fire
hoses capable of delivering water. The main fire suppression system located in the building is
classified as a “wet” system which delivers water to heat activated sprinkler heads located in the
ceiling of the office, Packaging Room, and Flammable Room.

The equipment description/capabilities and locations of the equipment are listed in Table 2.
HWF personnel are familiar with all equipment and locations. The emergency equipment is
inspected on a weekly basis. Upon completion of response actions for a release or spill, all non-
disposable personal protective equipment and spill cleanup equipment must be decontaminated
and readied for reuse and depleted stocks of neutralizing/absorbing materials must be replenished
and protective clothing cleaned or replaced. Any emergency equipment that has been damaged
beyond repair must be replaced.

The Emergency Coordinator must visually inspect all emergency equipment, after it has been
decontaminated to ensure cleanliness and proper operation. The decontamination solution and
the rinse waters shall be collected for proper disposal. The container of decontamination fluids
must be sealed, labeled, and stored in the HWF in accordance with Hamilton Sundstrand’s,
Hazardous Waste Facility Procedure and, Site Waste Management Procedure. The Emergency
Coordinator will also manage the reordering of disposable personal protective equipment and
spill cleanup equipment consumed as a result of the response actions for a release or spill.

7. AMENDMENT AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE PLAN

This Plan will be maintained and updated by the Emergency Coordinator of the HWF as
necessary. The Plan will be reviewed at least once every five years to determine if more
effective spill prevention and/or emergency response procedures are appropriate to the facility.
The Plan will be reviewed and immediately amended by the Emergency Coordinator, if
necessary, whenever:

1. Applicable regulations are revised;

2. The Plan fails in an emergency;

3. There are changes in the facility design, construction, operation, maintenance practices,
or other circumstances that may increase the potential for fire, explosion, or release of
hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents, or changes in the response necessary in
an emergency;

4. The list of Emergency Coordinators changes; or

5. The list of emergency equipment changes.

Hamilton Sundstrand is required to maintain an updated copy of this Plan at the facility. The
Plan must be available for review by employees during normal working hours, and must be made

Q1 INTRODUCTION

Q1a Purpose

This document is a facility Closure Plan for various regulated units at the Hamilton
Sundstrand Corporation facility, located in Windsor Locks, Connecticut (“the
facility”). The EPA Identification number for this facility is CTD001145341. This
Closure Plan is provided in accordance with the requirements for a Part B Permit
application, as presented at 40 CFR 270.14 and 264 and 265 (Subpart G). This
document was prepared using the Connecticut Department of Energy &
Environmental Protection (CTDEEP) “Draft RCRA Closure Plan Guidance for
Treatment, Storage and Disposal Facilities Container Storage Areas and Tank
Systems” as well as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) “Regulatory
Completeness Checklist for Hazardous Waste Storage, Treatment and Disposal
Facilities.” The completeness checklist is presented as Exhibit Q-1. A figure
developed by CTDEEP that illustrates the anticipated steps for closure of HWSAs
are provided in Exhibit Q-2.

The regulated units are those which are subject to Part B permitting, including
waste container management/storage areas, the staging area, waste tanks, a waste
compactor, J-Lot area and unloading/loading areas. These regulated units, all of
which are located at Hamilton Sundstrand’s Hazardous Waste Facility (HWF), are
described in detail in the Part B Permit.

Closure is not expected to be implemented in the foreseeable future. For planning


purposes, a closure year of 2035 is provided. A copy of this Closure Plan will be
retained in-house until the certification of closure has been accepted by the
regulatory agencies. The Closure Plan will also be updated according to
modifications that occur at the facility. Hamilton Sundstrand will notify the
regulatory agencies of its intent to close at least 180 days prior to cessation of
hazardous waste storage and treatment operations at its facility.

Upon completion of closure, Hamilton Sundstrand will submit to the Connecticut


Department of Energy & Environmental Protection a certification that the facility has
been closed in accordance with the approved Closure Plan.

Q1b Scope

In accordance with 40 CFR 264.111, closure of the regulated units will be


performed in a manner that:

(a) minimizes the need for further maintenance; and

(b) controls, minimizes or eliminates, to the extent necessary to protect


human health and the environment, the post-closure escape of
1
hazardous waste, hazardous constituents, leachate, contaminated
run-off, or hazardous waste decomposition products to the ground or
surface waters or to the atmosphere; and

(c) complies with the closure requirements of this subpart, including, but
not limited to, the requirements of 264.178, 264.197, 264.310 and
264.601 through 264.603.

Connecticut DEEP has provided a draft guidance document to facilitate the closure
process. The guidance document is a 3-part program, and is designed to facilitate
decision-making during actual closure. Ultimately, the principal decision that must
be rendered is whether clean closure or contingent closure (i.e., “closure as a
landfill”) should occur. The manner of closure will be determined at the time of
closure. For planning purposes, CTDEEP suggests that clean closure is presumed.

It is the intent of Hamilton Sundstrand to achieve clean closure, so post-closure


monitoring is not required. Should it be determined that post-closure and
monitoring are necessary, a post-closure plan will be submitted at the time of
closure.

Q1c Permit Status

Hamilton Sundstrand originally received a RCRA Waste Permit on September 7,


2004, this permit was re-issued on September 29, 2010. A copy of the front page of
the original permit and re-issuance are included in Exhibit Q-5. As indicated in the
permit, the regulated areas at Hamilton Sundstrand are as follows:

Container Storage Areas


Tank Storage Areas
 Non-Hazardous Waste Liquids (I.D. 121 A)
 Used Oil: Non-Hazardous Combustible Liquids/Oils Tank (I.D.
121 B)
Loading/Unloading Areas
Staging Area
Compactor Unit
J-Lot Area

Detailed descriptions of the regulated units are provided in Section Q2.

Q1d Facility Description

Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation is located at One Hamilton Road, in Windsor


Locks, Connecticut. A property map identifying current conditions at the site is
provided as Figure Q-1. The site is located within a well-developed suburban area,
surrounded by agricultural land. Refer to Exhibit I-2a and I-2b of Attachment I for a
map of the surrounding land use. The facility employs roughly 4,000 people.

2
Prior to 1944, land that is now occupied by Hamilton Sundstrand was used for
residential and agricultural purposes. In 1944 the State of Connecticut purchased
this plot of land. The United States Army then purchased a large portion of the
property and occupied it between 1944 and 1945. The US Army utilized the land as
a base for military and personnel equipment and as a training camp. In 1951, most
of the military base was purchased by United Aircraft Corporation (later named
United Technologies in 1975) for use by Hamilton Standard. Facility construction
occurred between 1952 and 1953. During the time frame between 1952 and 1958,
surrounding property was purchased from private landowners to maintain the
growing facility. In 1999 Hamilton Standard merged with The Sundstrand
Corporation thus creating a new corporate entity, Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation.
UTC Aerospace Systems (UTAS) was formed in August 2012 when parent United
Technologies Corporation (UTC) merged existing subsidiary Hamilton Sundstrand
with Goodrich Corporation. In 2018, UTC acquired Rockwell Collins, and merged
with UTAS to form Collins Aerospace. Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation is currently
operating as Collins Aerospace.

The facility consists of four large buildings (Buildings 1, 1A, 2, and 3) and several
smaller buildings including the Hot Fuel Lab, Customer Service School, Fuel Cell
Management Building, Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility, and Plating
Facility. Buildings 1 and 2 are the main facilities where manufacturing, shipping and
receiving, assembly and test, and engineering occurs. Buildings 1A and 3 are used
primarily as office space. The HWF is located in the southern part of the property,
west of the former Building 2A Pad. A site map is provided as Figure Q-2.

Work performed at the facility includes the research, development and


manufacturing of aircraft and spacecraft equipment. These operations encompass
such industrial processes as electroplating, machining, degreasing, and rig testing.

Hazardous wastes generated on site from these processes consist of


acid/alkali/metal solutions and sludges, solvents (non-halogenated), used oils,
ignitables (e.g., non-halogenated solvents, alcohol’s, and fuels), and unused or
outdated materials.

Hazardous and non-hazardous waste is accumulated and stored in containers and


two aboveground tanks located in Hamilton Sundstrand’s HWF (described in
Section Q2). The RCRA hazardous wastes that Hamilton Sundstrand handles are
listed on the Part A. The waste types and handling methods are provided on Table
Q-1. The majority of hazardous wastes are stored and shipped off-site for final
disposal. A portion of the waste that is generated by the Hamilton Sundstrand,
Windsor Locks facility is treated by an on-site wastewater treatment plant (WWTP)
that is permitted under the Clean Water Act.

Q1e Environmental Setting

The Hamilton Sundstrand, Windsor Locks facility resides on approximately 300


acres of land located primarily in Windsor Locks, Connecticut with portions of the
facility extending into the towns of East Granby and Windsor, Connecticut. The

3
facility’s geographic coordinates are approximately 42 degrees, 55 minutes, 35
seconds north latitude (41˚ 55’ 35”N) and 72 degrees, 41 minutes, 35 seconds west
longitude (72˚ 41’ 35”W). The facility is bounded in the north by Schoephoester
Road on the south by Route 20, and on the east by Hamilton Road. The northern
boundary is land occupied by Bradley International Airport and the southern,
eastern, and western boundaries consists of private residential land.

Topography

The topography at the facility is terraced with the highest elevation (approximately
170 feet, above mean sea level or msl) at the northern extent of the facility, adjacent
to Bradley International Airport. The lowest elevation (approximately 85 feet, above
mean sea level) is at the southern extent of the facility, adjacent to Rainbow Road.
The highest terrace forms a plateau that contains Buildings 1 and 2, (including the
Hazardous Waste Facility) and the associated parking areas and access roads.
Topographic elevations decrease sharply towards the southern extent of the
property near Building 3. Drainage ravines transect the terraces in a south-
southeast orientation. The west branch of Seymour Hollow ravine is situated along
the western border of the facility. Rainbow Brook ravine is situated along the
western border of the facility, and a small valley associated with an unnamed
intermittent stream (Unnamed Stream) originates at the approximate center of the
site and continues south. Steep slopes are also found along the eastern and
western shores of Watts Pond, located along the west side of the site (Dames &
Moore, 1992).

Surface Water Bodies

As illustrated on Figure Q-1, there are four surface water bodies located at or near
the facility and include: Rainbow Brook, Seymour Hollow Brook, “Unnamed
Stream”, and Watts Pond. The water body nearest to the HWF is Watts Pond. Watts
Pond is a manmade pond created in 1965 with a total surface area of 5.75± acres.

Rainbow Brook is located on the western side of the facility. The headwaters are
located northwest of the facility in the vicinity of Bradley International Airport. The
brook then flows in a southerly direction along the western border of the property.
The brook fans out into separate channels before emptying into Watts Pond. These
stream channels discharge into Watts Pond at various locations. The Rainbow
Brook exits at the southeastern portion of Watts Pond and continues to flow in a
southern direction where it eventually empties into the Farmington River.

Seymour Hollow Brook, which also originates in the vicinity of Bradley International
Airport, runs along the eastern portion of the property and flows in a southerly
direction and converges with Rainbow Brook just south of the facility before
emptying into the Farmington River.

The headwaters of the “Unnamed Stream” is situated approximately 250 feet south
of Building 2. It flows south for a distance of 1,700 feet before it merges with
Rainbow Brook just south of the property.
4
Groundwater

Groundwater at the site is classified by the Connecticut Department of Energy &


Environmental Protection as “GB.” The goal for GB groundwater areas is to prevent
further degradation of groundwater by preventing discharges which would cause
irreversible contamination.

Two aquifers have been identified within the vicinity of the facility and include: 1) an
overburden (surficial) aquifer composed of unconsolidated glacial and post-glacial
sediments, and 2) a bedrock aquifer. A layer of glacial till separates the two
aquifers (Dames & Moore, 1992).

Groundwater flows in a general south/southwesterly direction towards the


Farmington River, which serves as the regional groundwater discharge point.
Groundwater flow contained within the upper portions of the subsurface is averted
toward surface waters, Rainbow Brook and Seymour Hollow Brook, in the western
and eastern portions of the site respectively. Data have shown that downward
vertical gradients exist in the overburden aquifer. This evidence can be attributed to
the significant difference between the horizontal and vertical hydraulic conductivity
within and between the soil layers in the subsurface (Dames & Moore, 1992).

The nearest water supply wells are owned by others are located off-site and are
approximately 4,500 feet east of the HWF.

Geology

Site geology is characteristic of North Central Connecticut. Regionally, the bedrock


is typically overlain by deposits of glacial till consisting of an unsorted, non-stratified
mixture of clay, silt, pebbles, cobbles, and boulders in varying proportions (Dames &
Moore, 1992). Depth to bedrock ranges from 63.75 to 170 feet on the site. The
thickness of the till appears to range from 5 feet to 130 feet.

The depth to groundwater ranges from 29 to 55 feet with an average of 41.5 feet.
The soil in this area is classified as poorly graded fine to medium sand. Although
clayey type soils are not abundant on the site, silt and clay horizons are found in
this area. Silt/clay seams range in thickness of0.5 to 3 feet, and are encountered at
depths of less than 10 feet to over 50 feet below grade (Dames & Moore, 1992).

Q2 DESCRIPTION OF REGULATED UNITS

The HWF consists of the following regulated units to be closed:

a. Hazardous Waste Container Storage Area, Loading/Unloading and Staging


Area
b. Two Aboveground Storage Tanks:
-Tank 121A – Non-Hazardous Waste Liquids, Non-Hazardous
- Tank 121B - Used Oil: Non-Hazardous Combustible Liquids/Oils
5
c. Compactor Unit
d. J-Lot Area

A layout of the HWF is provided as Figure Q-3. The facility consists of a raised,
rectangular, concrete pad (approximately 2 feet above ground level) and measures
approximately 120 feet by 160 feet. The perimeter of the facility is surrounded by a
berm and fence. A roof covers the whole facility. Areas within the HWF include an
office, locker/shower room, packaging area, shipping/receiving area, aboveground
tank area and waste storage areas. The entire facility is roofed. The office,
locker/shower room and packaging areas are totally enclosed. A description of each
area is provided in the following sections.

Q2a Hazardous Waste Container Storage Area

The hazardous waste container storage area has a maximum storage capacity of
55,000 gallons (including containerized waste located in the staging area).
Containerized wastes are stored on racks segregated into the following groups:
Ignitables/Combustibles, Toxics/Burnables, Toxics/Sludges, Toxics/Soils, and
Toxics/Aqueous.

Within the storage area are the loading/unloading and the staging areas. The
loading/unloading areas are utilized to load and unload wastes. The staging area is
used to stage wastes while in transition to either the container storage area or
packaged for offsite shipment.

The HWF also houses four 15 feet by 10 feet, 500-gallon capacity, heated, self-
contained, moveable hazardous waste storage sheds to segregate incompatible
wastes. The segregated wastes stored in the sheds are as follows: acids, alkaline
wastes, PCB/Isocyanate type wastes, and water-based wastes. Two cabinets to
store and segregate small containerized wastes are also situated within the
hazardous waste storage area and include; the lab pack cabinets situated on the
north side of the building near the PCB/Isocyanate shed and the flammable cabinet
located in the flammable room on the southern side of the facility.

A refrigerator is also utilized to store and segregate small containers of wastes that
are temperature sensitive and for samples being sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Lab Pack Cabinets are utilized to store small containers of wastes.

The facility does not currently receive wastes from off-site.

Wastes that are to be transferred from their original containers to the bulk storage
tanks are brought into the Packaging Room, a part of the HWF. In the Packaging
Room, liquid wastes are pumped out of the individual drums into the bulk tanks.
Pumping is performed in accordance with a Hamilton Sundstrand empty drum
procedure until the drums are “RCRA empty.” After pumping is finished, the RCRA
empty drums are moved to and stored in the Used Empties Storage Trailer located

6
at the HWF. At final disposition, the used empty drums are sent to an outside drum-
reclamation facility.

Record drawings of the HWF are provided in the Part B permit application. A berm
(installed as secondary containment) surrounds the perimeter of the storage area
including the virgin material storage area. Both areas share the same concrete pad
but the virgin product storage area has its own containment system. A roof covers
the entire HWF as well as a poly tarp which shields the northern side of the facility
along the “virgin product storage” area. The tank storage area and the HWF are
separated by a concrete wall on the south side of the facility.

The lower base of the storage area consists of a concrete floor slab overlain by a
compacted washed sand layer. Above the sand layer is a 60-mil HDPE impervious
protective liner. This liner is covered with a layer of compacted washed sand
followed by an eight-inch concrete slab. The concrete is coated with an epoxy
sealant. Floor sections of the HWF are graded/sloped to control run-off.

There are nine observation wells located throughout the Hazardous Waste Facility.
The wells are constructed of a 4-inch diameter 20-slot PVC screen and riser. The
upper portion of the well is encased in an epoxy-coated watertight seal
manhole/vault with a width of 12¼ inches.

Q2b Combustible Used Oil Tank and Non-Hazardous Waste Tank

Hamilton Sundstrand bulks waste in two aboveground storage tanks (Tank 121A
and 121B) located in a roofed structure extending from the HWF just south of the
packaging room. The tanks were installed in June of 1994. Both tanks are
horizontal, cylindrical, double wall, steel with 100% containment capacity within the
interstitial spacing. The outside of the tanks are fiberglass coated to a minimum
thickness of 100- mil for corrosion protection (all exposed steel surfaces, including
tank appurtenances, are coated with approximately 8-mil of epoxy coating). The
tanks have a capacity of 6,000 gallons each and are 12.5 feet in length and 9.0 feet
in diameter.

Tank 121A holds non-hazardous liquids. Tank 121A previously contained


hazardous waste liquids, however partial closure of Tank 121A was achieved on
August 15, 2013.

Tank 121B holds combustible liquids such as used oils. Typical materials stored in
Tank 121B consist of liquid wastes with high flash points such as alcohol based
cleaners, preservative oils, and various cutting, lubrication and hydraulic oils. Tank
121B is designed to hold RCRA regulated hazardous wastes but is used to hold
both non-hazardous and combustible wastes which are sent off-site for used oil
recycling.

Both tanks are batch fed and wastes are manually added to the tanks from
containers through pump stations (one pump station for the non-hazardous tank
and one for the combustible tank) located inside the packaging room. The pump
7
station in the flammable room was removed during the partial closure of Tank 121A.
During loading and unloading operations, an operator is always present. Double
wall containment piping is implemented as a secondary containment precaution.
The primary pipes are constructed of steel while the secondary pipes are
constructed of fiberglass reinforced epoxy. All piping runs to leak detection sumps.
Any liquid accumulated within the interstitial space is able to drain freely into the
leak detection sumps.

The tanks are separated from the rest of the HWF by a masonry fire barrier wall.
The wall is made of 8-inch concrete blocks and stands 10 feet tall.

The rectangular perimeter of the storage area that houses the two tanks consists of
a fence and a fire retardant poly tarp installed on the north, south and west sides of
the tank area. The perimeter of the area is also surrounded by a 1- foot, 6-inch cast
in place concrete berm.

The tanks are atop a 7-inch thick raised pad (same elevation as the HWF)
measuring 40 feet by 20 feet. The 12- inch thick reinforced concrete pad and berm
are coated with an epoxy sealant. Both are installed over a 60-mil high density
polyethylene (HDPE) liner. This is the same HDPE liner that covers the whole area
of the HWF.

Q2c Compactor

The waste compactor is located in the packaging room of the HWF and is used to
compact wastes into a drums. The main waste is rags and debris contaminated with
paints, solvents, coolants and oils. The compactor measures approximately 4 feet
wide by 7 feet high by 3 feet deep. The exhaust is vented to a carbon canister for
air emission control.

Q2d J-Lot Area

The J-Lot Area is located on the southern end of the HWF. Several activities are
performed in the J-Lot Area, including: non-flammable compressed gas storage (in
locked cage); and non-RCRA hazardous waste roll-off storage.

Q3 CLOSURE APPROACH

Once it is decided that closure should commence, the condition of the regulated
units will be assessed to determine whether a release to the surrounding
environment could have potentially occurred. This determination will consist of
inspection of the structural integrity of each unit. If the structural integrity is
acceptable, site characterization for the regulated units will be limited to the
structure. However, if the structural integrity is determined to be inadequate, then
characterization of the surrounding soils will be performed.

Characterization of regulated unit structures is discussed in this section, and was

8
developed using Part 1 of the ”Draft RCRA Closure Plan Guidance for Treatment,
Storage and Disposal Facilities Container Storage Areas and Tank Systems.”
Closure activities for both the container storage area and tank systems are
discussed in Section Q4.

Corrective Action activities are a component of the current Part B permit. Hamilton
Sundstrand is working in conjunction with CT DEEP and EPA to investigate and
remediate historic operations. One of the areas listed is the former Hazardous
Waste Storage Area, identified as Solid Waste Management Unit 3 (SWMU 3). The
Closure Approach focuses on the current HWF. SWMU 3 will be addressed once
closure of the current HWF has been implemented. Historic sampling results from
SWMU 3 are available on file at Hamilton Sundstrand and at the CT DEEP.

Constituents of Concern identified through the above noted processes will be listed
along with associated potential human exposure pathways and appropriate risk or
health based standards. These standards will be used as the Media Closure
Criteria (MCC) for this Closure Plan. Risk and health based standards will be
developed from Connecticut Remediation Standard Regulations (RSRs), found at
RCSA 22a-133K-1 through -3, for exposure through ingestion and the USEPA Risk-
based Compounds (RBC) Table for exposure through inhalation. Dermal exposure
risk will be based on the RBC lists for industrial soil. Consistent with the RSRs, only
those Constituents of Concern (COCs) identified as Volatile Organic Compounds
(Henry’s Law Constant greater than 10-5 and Molecular Weight less than 200) will
be evaluated for environmental and human risk through an inhalation pathway.

CTDEEP will be notified at least 45 days prior to initiation of actual closure activities.
Closure of the hazardous waste storage area and the two storage tanks will involve
decontamination and removal of equipment and structures.

Q3a Assessment at Closure

At closure initiation, the hazardous waste inventory will be removed from the facility
and properly disposed of at a RCRA regulated facility. The maximum inventory
volume would be 55,000 gallons based on design; however, it is not anticipated that
Hamilton Sundstrand will store that quantity of waste. Additional waste inventory
includes the volume of two 6,000 gallon tanks of waste (Tanks 121A and 121B),
and other non-hazardous wastes (J-Lot roll-off, non-flammable compressed gas
cylinders, and universal wastes).

Q3b Structural Integrity Assessment

Once the waste inventory is removed, the integrity of the concrete floor will be
assessed by visual inspection. The inspection will be performed consistent with the
EPA’s Technical Guidance (EPA/530/R-93/005) “Determining the Integrity of
Concrete Sumps.” The inspector will look for deterioration and/or cracks which may
have resulted in failure of the floor and exposure of underlying soils. The inspection
will include identification of significant stains and floor pitting. If cracking or other
signs of deterioration are identified, it will be concluded that a release had the
9
potential to impact the subsurface, and that further investigations are warranted.

To facilitate this portion of the Structural Integrity Assessment, records of any repair
work performed in the Hazardous Waste Facility area will be permanently entered
into the operating record of the facility. These records will be used to support the
conclusion that the flooring was maintained in a good condition.

During the initial assessment, the nine observation wells located throughout the
HWF will be opened to determine whether any liquids have accumulated beneath
the floor. If liquid has accumulated at any of the wells, a sample will be collected
and analyzed for the parameters identified on Table Q-2.

If any constituents are detected above naturally occurring levels, it will be concluded
that a release has occurred and that further investigations are warranted. Therefore,
investigations into the floor subsurface may occur if signs of a release or the
potential for a release to have occurred are evident. Investigations would consist of
concrete chip sampling, soil sampling, and could lead to concrete and soil removal.

Tank system integrity assessment will be conducted to determine whether the tank
system could have leaked. The assessment will include, at a minimum, a review of
the leak detection monitoring records. If the test results show the tank system could
not have leaked, subsurface soils will not be investigated for presence or extent of
contamination. The completed integrity assessment will be appended to the closure
plan.

This Closure Plan presumes that the initial assessment at the time of closure will
not result in the need for further investigations. This presumption is made because
(1) the tanks and floor near loading/unloading areas are inspected daily and the
remaining portions of the HWF are visually inspected weekly, consistent with 40
CFR 264.15 and 264.174, and (2) the floor is coated with a chemical-resistant and
impervious epoxy that is routinely maintained. However, if at the time of closure
evidence of an actual or potential release of waste is observed, the CTDEEP will be
notified and a Sampling Characterization Work Plan will be developed. The
purpose of the work plan will be to outline the steps to achieve clean closure at the
facility.

Q4 CLOSURE ACTIVITIES

Q4a Tank Decontamination and Confirmatory Sampling

Waste stored within Tanks 121A and Tank 121B will be removed using vacuum
trucks. Any remaining waste residues within the tanks may require the aid of
mechanical agitators, additional rinsing with water, and manual labor for full
removal. After removal of all waste inventories, each tank and its lines (along with
storage pads and containment berms) will be pressure washed with non-phosphate
detergent solvent followed by a triple rinse. To facilitate rinsing, a high pressure
spray-head or spray-wand will be operated aggressively to direct rinsing solution to
all hard to reach areas. Each rinse solution may be increased in strength and used
10
where heavy residue build-up is suspected. Piping and other appurtenances will be
decontaminated by triple flushing.

Once cleaning and rinsing has been performed, the tank interiors will be visually
inspected to determine whether any materials remain in the tanks. Further pressure
washing will occur, if necessary, based on visual inspection until it is observed to be
visually clean or it is determined that further power washing is likely to be
ineffective. If possible, the tank interiors will be photographed to document
cleaning. It is estimated that a maximum of 600 gallons of wastewater per tank will
be generated during pressure washing and rinsing.

Wash and rinse waters will be collected and characterized for off-site disposal. The
resulting water is expected to be non-hazardous due to the non-hazardous nature of
the materials stored.

Once cleaning is complete, it is anticipated that each tank system will be dismantled
as disposed as scrap metal. A Bill-of-Lading will be used to document the amount of
scrap metal generated and recycled. Sampling handling procedures are described
in Section Q5.

Q4b Compactor & Equipment Decontamination

Most of the containers in the HWF are stored on racks. Additionally, there are four
portable storage sheds used to isolate incompatible wastes and a cage in the J-Lot
area. The racks, sheds and cage will be decontaminated by power washing using a
non-phosphate detergent, followed by triple rinsing.

Partial closure of the hazardous waste compactor was completed in August 2015.
An in-kind compactor was installed within the same footprint of the HWF. The
compactor will be power washed, but may also require wiping and scraping to
remove any gross contamination. Once decontamination has been completed, each
cleaned unit will be visually inspected for any staining. If staining is observed, an
attempt will be made to further remove the stain by using a bristle brush. If the
bristle brush is not effective, no further cleaning will be attempted.

Floor surfaces surrounding fixed equipment will be isolated by means of tarp berms
or adsorbent pillows to containerize and collect cleaning and rinse waters. Small,
moveable, or portable equipment such as secondary containment pallets will be
moved to a central decontamination area that will be similarly isolated by means of
berms and tarps. Pressure washing, triple rinsing, and separate collection of wash
and rinse water will be employed. Wash water and rinse water will be collected
separately as the wash water will be expected to have contamination levels higher
than the rinse water. The final rinse will be analyzed for the COCs. If the results of
the analysis are less than the MCC, the final rinse will demonstrate the
decontamination. If the final rinse has levels of COCs above the MCC, additional
pressure washing and rinsing will occur with analysis of the rinsate until it is
11
determined that further cleaning will not provide a beneficial result. The wash and
rinse water itself will be vacuum collected and analyzed for the Constituents of
Concern. If the results of the analysis are less than the MCC, the water will be
classified as non-hazardous waste. Otherwise, the water will be classified as a
hazardous or non-hazardous waste and disposed of properly.

It is anticipated that approximately 2,000 gallons of wastewater will be generated


from these activities. The wastewater will be sampled for the constituents listed on
Table Q-2. If the results are less than the MCC listed on Table Q-2, the wastewater
will be disposed of as non-hazardous waste. Otherwise, the wastewater will either
be classified as hazardous or non-hazardous waste. Regardless, disposal will
occur at a permitted facility by a licensed transporter.

Once decontamination activities have been completed for the equipment, it is


anticipated that the units will be dismantled and sold as scrap metal. A Bill-of-
Lading will be used to document the amount of scrap metal generated and recycled.

Q4c Floor Decontamination and Confirmatory Sampling

The concrete floor surface has an epoxy sealant, including the packaging area, rack
storage area, tank area, staging area, and loading and unloading areas, and the J-
Lot area. Decontamination of the Hazardous Waste Facility will consist of pressure
washing the floor with a non-phosphate detergent. The floor will also be rinsed with
clean water following pressure washing activities. Floor surfaces will be isolated by
means of tarp berms or adsorbent pillows to containerize and collect cleaning and
rinse waters. Wash water and rinse water will be collected separately as the wash
water will be expected to have contamination levels higher than the rinse water.
The final rinse will be analyzed for the COCs. If the final rinse has levels of COCs
above the MCC, additional pressure washing and rinsing will occur with analysis of
the rinsate until it is determined that further cleaning will not provide a beneficial
result. Wash and rinse waters will be collected using a wet vacuum and transferred
into appropriate containers.

It is estimated that an additional 2,000 gallons of rinse waters will be generated


during pressure washing of the floor within the HWF.

The floor of the Hazardous Waste Facility is maintained with epoxy sealant
therefore, no failure is expected to have occurred. However, CTDEEP requires that
sampling of the floor should occur to verify that a release did not occur. Therefore,
following decontamination, concrete chip sampling will occur using a hammer drill.
At this time, it is envisioned that approximately 50 discrete samples will be collected
from throughout the storage portion of the HWF. The number of samples is based
on the area where hazardous wastes are currently stored, plus a lesser number of
samples for other open areas (including the J-Lot area). The locations where the
samples will be collected will be determined at the time of closure, and will likely be
both randomly and judgmentally determined. The samples will be analyzed for the
COCs listed in Table Q-2. However, samples with the highest probability of
contamination, such as samples from stained areas will be analyzed for COCs
12
defined in in 40CFR Part 264 Appendix IX (less pesticides, herbicides, insecticides,
fungicides, rodenticides, dioxins and furans). Additionally, background concrete
chip samples may be collected to account for the inherent concentration of metals
typically found in concrete.

The sample results will be compared to the MCC listed on Table Q-2 and to
background. Should results be found greater than these criteria, the extent of the
release will be ascertained, which may necessitate sampling of the soil below the
surface. Also, concrete scarification and removal may occur at certain sections of
the facility. These decisions will be made once the results of the sampling effort
have been received and evaluated, and in consultation with CTDEEP.

Q4d Worker Safety and Decontamination

Precautions will be taken so that safe conditions are maintained for those engaged
in closure activities. The contractor performing closure activities will certify that the
provisions of Occupational Health and Safety Act (OSHA) as amended have been
followed. A Health and Safety Plan for the RCRA closure activities will be required
of the contractor pursuant to the OSHA regulatory requirements found in 29 CFR
1920.120.

During closure there will be contact between the regulated materials and both
equipment and personnel conducting the closure activities. Therefore, equipment
and personnel must be decontaminated.

Removal of concrete and soil are not anticipated. However, if required, the
procedure for equipment decontamination will consist of two steps: (1) physically
removing as much material as possible and (2) pressure washing or steam-cleaning
the equipment to remove any remaining materials. All residual material will be
containerized and disposed of appropriately. Water generated during the pressure
washing or steam-cleaning process will be collected in a polyethylene lined basin
and removed using a dedicated bucket and/or pump. The wash water will be
containerized and disposed of appropriately.

Personnel equipment in contact with material from the regulated unit will be
decontaminated by washing with a non-phosphate soap solution and rinsing with
tap water. The wash water will be collected, characterized and managed and
disposed of accordingly.

Expendable items (i.e., Tyvek suits, gloves) will also be containerized, characterized
and managed and disposed of accordingly. In addition, the polyethylene sheets
used for decontamination activities will be containerized and disposed of
appropriately.

Decontamination of the equipment will be documented with close-up photographs of


each piece of equipment after cleaning as a visual examination is the criteria for

13
decontamination of equipment. Photographs taken to document closure will be
submitted as part of closure certification.

Q4e Generated Waste Disposal

Wash waters and rinse waters will be characterized and transported off-site for
disposal by a licensed transporter to a permitted facility to be determined at the time
of closure. If the wastewater sampling results from a particular wastestream are
less than the MCC, the wastewater from that wastestream will be classified as non-
hazardous. Otherwise, the wastewater will be properly characterized (as hazardous
or non-hazardous waste), managed appropriately on-site, and disposed of at a
licensed facility.

As previously mentioned, the tanks, compactor, racks, storage sheds and other
appurtenances will be managed as scrap metal. A Bill-of-Lading for the scrap metal
will be obtained to document removal and disposal.

Other waste that will be generated from the decontamination and confirmatory
sampling of the regulated units include personal protective equipment (PPE). This
material will be containerized and will be discarded as a hazardous waste once
closure has been completed.

Q5 SAMPLE METHODOLOGIES AND HANDLING PROCEDURES

Q5a Sampling Equipment Decontamination

All sampling equipment will be decontaminated between samples to avoid cross-


contamination. As concrete chip sampling is necessary, sampling equipment will be
thoroughly decontaminated between points. The decontamination procedure will
consist of the following sequence: non-phosphate detergent scrub, tap water rinse,
methanol solution scrub, deionized water rinse, nitric acid solution rinse and a final
deionized water rinse.

Rinse waters from equipment decontamination procedures will be containerized


with the rinse waters generated as a result of the area decontaminations for
disposal purposes.

Q5b Sample Analyses

Samples collected will be analyzed for the COCs identified for each of the
respective regulated units. Samples will be analyzed in accordance with the
procedures identified in SW-846. The EPA method numbers for all COCs are
presented on Table Q-2. The table also indicates the parameter holding times, the
type of sample container for each parameter, preservative, and the detection limit
range. Samples with the highest probability of contamination, such as samples from
stained areas, will be analyzed for COCs defined in 40 CFR Part 264 Appendix IX
(except for pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides, dioxins and
furans).

14
Samples at each sampling location will be given a unique identifying number. A
sample label will be affixed to each sample container at the time of collection to
prevent sample misidentification. Information recorded on the sample label will
include: (1) Sample identification number, (2) Client/project name and location, (3)
Date and time of sample collection, (4) Sample preservatives, and (5) identification
of sampler.

Samples will be hand-delivered to a State of Connecticut certified laboratory in the


shortest time possible. The samples will be kept chilled at four degrees Celsius
until delivery is accomplished.

Control of samples will be maintained at all times using Chain-of-Custody forms.


The Chain-of-Custody forms will be completed and signed by all persons involved in
the chain of possession with the date and time, and accompany each cooler or
other shipping container to the receiving laboratory.

Q5c Field and Laboratory Quality Assurance and Control

Quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) protocols will be followed in the field
and laboratory in accordance with the SW-846 of latest revision. The director of the
certified laboratory performing the analysis will perform data validation and
document quality control per SW-846.

Each quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) sample will be given its own sample
number. The identity of these samples will be withheld from the laboratory
conducting the analysis.

Trip/Equipment Blanks

The purpose of the trip and equipment blanks is to determine whether samples
and/or sampling equipment have been exposed to contaminants.

The trip blank will be prepared by the laboratory which supplies the sample
containers and ultimately analyzes the samples. Sample containers for each
parameter will be filled with laboratory de-ionized water. The trip blanks will
accompany the sample containers from the time that they leave the lab until the
time that they are returned to the lab for analysis. The trip blank will then be
submitted, unopened, to the lab as if it had been collected in the field. One trip
blank per day will be submitted for those days when aqueous samples are
collected. The equipment blanks will be prepared using laboratory supplied de-
ionized water and sample containers.

Duplicate Samples

The objective of duplicate sampling is to check the accuracy of the laboratory


analysis. Duplicate samples will be collected in the field, and will constitute
approximately 10 percent of all samples collected. The duplicate sample consists of
15
one sample split into two equal aliquots. The duplicate will be assigned a
sequential number such that the receiving laboratory will not be aware that a
duplicate exists. The duplicate will be handled and collected as any other sample
collected.

16
Q6 QUALITY ASSURANCE DURING CLOSURE ACTIVITIES

Hamilton Sundstrand will provide an on-site inspector familiar with both the facility
and the plans and specifications for closure. The inspector will be present during all
phases of closure activities and will monitor closure activities and document
satisfactory completion of all phases of the work.

General inspections will be made throughout closure. Inspections shall be


performed in accordance with the applicable recommendations and guidelines
contained in the EPA Technical Guidance Document "Construction Quality
Assurance for Hazardous Waste Land Disposal Facilities," EPA/530-SW-86-031.
This document provides target criteria for the acceptance of work performed. The
inspector will be familiar with this document.

The QA/QC program for closure activities at the facility will be implemented by an
independent professional engineer to be selected at the time when closure activities
are implemented. All aspects of the closure activities will be monitored and
coordinated by the professional engineer or his/her designated representative. The
professional engineer or the designated representative will act as the QA/QC
Coordinator.

Qualifications of the independent professional engineer and his/her designated


representative will be provided to the regulatory agencies prior to initiation of
closure activities. The responsibilities of the QA/QC Coordinator will include, but
will not be limited to, the following:

 Verification that all raw data are interpreted correctly. This includes all
laboratory analytical data from samples collected and submitted for analysis.

 Establishment of a liaison between Hamilton Sundstrand, the contractor and


the regulatory agencies. As liaison, the QA/QC Coordinator will oversee all
communication matters between parties and the resolution of any and all
minor departures from the approved Closure Plan.

 Collection and/or observing the collection of the clean closure verification


samples. All samples will be submitted to a State of Connecticut certified
laboratory for analysis. All laboratory analyses will be conducted using
QA/QC procedures specified in the EPA document Test Methods for
Evaluating Solid Waste, SW-846 (latest edition).

Periodic and routine visits will be made to the site during the closure period to
observe closure activities and inspect the adequacy of all work. The QA/QC
Coordinator will, at a minimum, observe each individual stage and item of work.
The Coordinator will also review all documentation collected at the facility at the
time of each inspection. The date and results of each inspection will be recorded by
the certified Coordinator in a log book at the facility.

17
At this time, the identification of the remediation contractor who will implement the
closure activities is unknown. Once Hamilton Sundstrand has notified the
regulatory agencies of its intent to close the regulated units, and has obtained
approval for this closure plan, it is anticipated that Hamilton Sundstrand will perform
any remediation activities necessary to close the regulated units under the guidance
of an independent registered Professional Engineer.

Q7 DOCUMENTATION

Proper documentation of all QA/QC activities will facilitate the final certification of
closure and will provide Hamilton Sundstrand with a permanent record of the
closure activities. Documentation will include the following:

a. Results from confirmatory sampling and analysis.

b. A sequential, dated, photographic record documenting each step of


closure.

c. Summary of pre-closure meetings, inspection reports and daily logs


maintained during closure.

d. All minor modifications made to the approved Closure Plan and


description of how it was determined to be a minor modification.

e. Closure certification statements.

f. As-built drawings that document initial and final conditions.

g. QA/QC results for any construction materials brought on-site and left in
place to facilitate closure.

h. Hazardous waste determination results, final disposition location, and


copies of waste manifests.

Q8 SECURITY

Security requirements are promulgated at 40 CFR 264.14. In the regulations, it is


stated that "the owner must prevent the unknowing entry and minimize the
possibility of unauthorized entry of persons or livestock onto the active portion of the
facility."

Road access to the southern edge of the facility is along State Route 20, to the
north it is along Hamilton Road, and the east it is along Cargo Road. State Route 20
is located adjacent to the property line and carries the largest volume of traffic of
any road in the area. From all of these entrances, traffic enters onto site roads and
to parking areas. All roads are well maintained and traffic delays usually are not
encountered. Access to internal site roads is controlled by manned access control
points.
18
The facility has a 24-hour surveillance system that provides continuous security for
all of its operations. Security is provided by a number of factors including a fence
around the entire site, closed-circuit television monitoring, and a 24-hour guard
service that controls personnel and vehicular access to the site. Guard posts, and
general and restricted traffic patterns are outlined in Figure Q-2.

Q9 CLOSURE COST PROJECTION

Closure cost requirements are promulgated at 40 CFR 264.142. As previously


indicated, clean closure will be pursued for each regulated unit. The projected
closure cost based on the pursuit of clean closure is presented on Table Q-3. The
cost projections for implementing this closure plan includes; removal of waste
inventories; decontamination of tanks, container storage pad and associated
hardware; disposal of wash waters and solvents; and certificate of closure.

The closure cost projection will be kept on file at the facility, and will be revised
annually or whenever changes in the closure activities or closure plan increase the
cost of closure. If, during a calendar year, the closure cost estimates are not
affected by changes in closure activities, the closure cost estimates will be adjusted
to reflect changes brought about by economic inflation. The Department of
Commerce’s Annual Implicit Price Deflator for Gross National Product will be used
to make this adjustment.

Q10 CLOSURE TIMING PROJECTION

The regulations specified in 40 CFR 264.113 present time limits for completion of
closure activities. The time limit is 180 days from receipt of the closure approval by
the regulatory agencies. A schedule of closure will be provided prior to
implementation of closure activities. It is anticipated at this time that closure for
each of the regulated units will be achieved within 180 days of the beginning of
closure activities, or 180 days after the closure plan is approved, whichever is later.
Notification of closure will be provided at least 45 days prior to the start of closure
activities. Table Q-4 shows the proposed schedule of individual closure activities.
As stated previously, for planning purposes the anticipated closure date is January
1, 2035.

Q11 FINANCIAL ASSURANCE

Financial assurance during the closure period is required per 40 CFR § 264.143, as
incorporated per RCSA § 22a-449(c)-104(a)(1) and (a)(2). Financial assurance is a
mechanism established and made available to the CTDEEP to assure closure of the
facility. Hamilton Sundstrand has established a letter of credit, supported by a
standby trust agreement, in an amount consistent the current calculated closure
cost estimate included in Exhibit Q-3. Hamilton Sundstrand will continue to annually
adjust this closure cost estimate, and letter of credit as necessary, for inflation per

19
40 CFR § 264.142, as incorporated per RCSA § 22a-449(c)-104(a)(1) and (a)(2).
Hamilton Sundstrand will continue to annually submit a summary of the current
closure and post-closure cost estimates to CTDEEP.

Copies of the above-referenced letter of credit and the standby trust agreement can
be found in Attachment R. The CTDEEP holds the original letter of credit and
standby trust agreement, which also cover the current calculated post-closure cost
estimate. The CTDEEP also holds the original payment bond covering third-party
liability per 40 CFR § 264.147, as incorporated per RCSA § 22a-449(c)-104(a)(1)
and (a)(2). A copy of which can also be found in Attachment R.

Q12 CERTIFICATION

Within 60 days of completion of closure, Hamilton Sundstrand will submit to the


regulatory agencies certification by Hamilton Sundstrand and by an independent
registered professional engineer that the regulated units have been closed in
accordance with specifications in the approved Closure Plan. The certification will
be submitted pursuant to 40 CFR 264.115. The proposed Certification is provided
as Exhibit Q-4.
