1 Waste Management and Research Center Waste Management and Research Center l Formed in 1984 l IL Dept of Natural Resources l Located at University of Illinois l WMRC Programs Research Information Services Pollution Prevention/Technical Assistance

2 Waste Management and Research Center

3 Waste Management and Research Center WMRC Resources and Capabilities l Library l Analytical Capabilities l High Hazard Laboratory l Clean Technologies Laboratory l P2/Technical Assistance Staff

4 Waste Management and Research Center Waste Management Hierarchy Waste/Product Elimination Raw Material Substitution Source Reduction In Process/In house Recycling Outside Recycling/Reuse Treatment Incineration Landfill Better Worse Pollution Prevention

5 Waste Management and Research Center Bottom Line The best way to clean up a mess is to not make it to begin with.

6 Waste Management and Research Center

7 Waste Management and Research Center Sample of Source Reduction

8 Waste Management and Research Center Sample of In house recycling

9 Waste Management and Research Center

10 Waste Management and Research Center Incentives l Economics l Liability l Productivity l Soldier/Public safety l Public Relations l Environmental Protection l Regulation

11 Waste Management and Research Center Obstacles l Immediate Training/Readiness Concerns l Potential Reduced Training Effectiveness l Standard Operating Procedures l Regulation l Funding l Inertia

12 Waste Management and Research Center Types of Pollution l Air Pollution - evaporating solvents, smoke from fires, vehicle exhaust l Water Pollution -untreated sewage, rainwater runoff from spill sites l Land Pollution -Contaminated soil from spilled POL, lead at firing ranges Penalties - $25,000 per day per violation, jail time for intentional violations

13 Waste Management and Research Center Impacts of DoD Activities l Vehicle Maintenance Oil Changes Coolant Fuels Painting/dePainting Major Rebuilds/refitting

14 Waste Management and Research Center Impacts of DoD Activities l Industrial Activities Weapons Manufacture Weapons Maintenance and Repair Building and Grounds Maintenance

15 Waste Management and Research Center Impacts of DoD Activities l Training Firing Ranges Tracking of Natural Areas Training in Repair and Maintenance of Equipment

16 Waste Management and Research Center Negative Impacts of Poor Environmental Practices l Chanute AFB; Rantoul, IL Technical training center, returned to civilian sector. 67 contaminated sites on 2125 acres, including USTs, fire training areas, engine test cells, etc. Contaminants include POL, solvents, and heavy metals in soil and groundwater 60,000 tons of soil treated as of 1996 $38.6 million spent as of 1996, estimated cost to completion (1998) $40.2 million. As of 2000, there are potential off site well water issues

17 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Vehicle Maintenance l Start Maintenance on a clean vehicle l Defects easier to spot l Less solvent use l Cleaner shop l Clean only at approved stations

18 Waste Management and Research Center Shot of wash rack

19 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Vehicle Maintenance l Change oil only when indicated by tests l Place used oil in proper containers l Do not mix oil and other wastes l Use caution when transferring oil to storage l Do not dispose in drains or ditches $25,000 fine and possible jail time

20 Waste Management and Research Center Shot of oil storage

21 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Vehicle Maintenance l Do not clean parts unnecessarily l Use water based cleaners when possible and allowed l Always where proper gloves and eye protection, even on water based systems l Be careful not to resoil cleaned parts

22 Waste Management and Research Center

23 Waste Management and Research Center Shots of parts cleaners

25 Waste Management and Research Center

26 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Vehicle Maintenance l Change antifreeze only when indicated by test results l Place used antifreeze only in designated containers l Do not mix antifreeze and other wastes l Use caution when transferring to storage l Do not dispose in drains or ditches $25,000 fine and possible jail time

27 Waste Management and Research Center Shot of antifreeze storage

28 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Vehicle Maintenance “Stop if There’s a Drop” l Respond to even the smallest spill immediately Is your spill solvent or gasoline? If not, can it be wiped up w/ three rags or less? If the spill is larger, does it contain oil? If the spill is larger, does it contain antifreeze

29 Waste Management and Research Center Shot of spill response kit

30 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Hazardous Waste Management l Determine whether wastes are hazardous or non-hazardous Listed- still bottoms, some solvents Ignitable- fuels, some solvents Corrosive- battery acid Reactive- some cleaning agents Leachable Toxic- some paint sludges

31 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Hazardous Waste Management l Do you need to generate the waste?? Does the part need to be cleaned? Is the cleaning agent really spent? Is your painting technique correct? How much weed killer do you need to mix?

32 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Hazardous Waste Management l Separate hazardous from non-hazardous waste. Separate oil from solvents and/or antifreeze

33 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Hazardous Waste Management l Strictly follow procedures in managing hazardous waste. Labeling Accumulation time Safety Procedures Training Documentation

34 Waste Management and Research Center Shots of labels, placarding, storage, etc.

47 Waste Management and Research Center P2 in Hazardous Waste Management l Spill Response “Stop if There’s a Drop” Respond immediately Be sure you know how to clean up the particular chemical. Know when to get help. “Your Safety May Depend on It”

48 Waste Management and Research Center Forces That Cause Change l Pain! l Gain! l Disgust!!!

49 Waste Management and Research Center Factors That Influence Successful Change l Relative Advantage l Compatability l Simplicity l Observability l Trialability
