Re: Error Condition Re: incineration and dioxin

[james denning <x288files@earthlink.net>]

i am on a task force overseeing the clean up of a superfund site. this
 site was to be mostly done but for some errors in the memory of the
epa.
  anyway first  something that you all will be happy to hear
 
 "IT HAS NEVER BEEN ILLEGAL TO SHIP DIOXIN  IT WAS JUST THAT THEY HAD NO
 WHERE TO SEND IT"  [CLOSE QUOTE]
 from the head man in boston overseeing the clean ups and the site
 director of the baird and mcguire toxic waste site. We were informed of
 this at the nov 97 meeting. Seems all the task force just got that
 wrong. Unfortunately I have a tape of thier man saying it was illegal.
 but as usual thats no relevent.
 Anyways  our site  is 14 on the superfund site 220,000 tons of dirt and
 2-20 ft down . With water treatment plant doing removal of water 100 ft
 down. seems this is not working as expected . this is because they
 forgot that the contaminants could wash very slowly into 100 feet .
 Creosote  60% of site  will not wash away quickly . This is continuing
 the lnapl and probably causeing dnapl. So in order to make some
progress
 they are shyphoning the lnapl of the top of the water. This creates a
 consentrate . These consentrates are being shipped off site. Thus the
 dioxin question.  if anyone has a incineration question feel free to
 email me
 this is the web site for the epa site
