Re: Ground Water Sampling/Site Evaluation
420 John Pitch Boulevard
South Windsor, Connecticut
TRC Project No. 24306
Dear Mr. Rana:
TRC Environmental Corporation (TRC) is pleased to submit this report for the additional
ground water sampling and visual site evaluation conducted at the above-referenced property
(subject site). TRC conducted the original Phase 11 subsurface investigation on the subject
site between October and December 1996. The Phase It investigation consisted of the
drilling and sampling of four soil borings on the site.and the subsequent installation and
sampling of four ground water monitoring wells, designated wells MW-1 through MW4.
As a result of the Phase II investigation, lead was detected in one soil sample (from boring
B-1)at a level exceeding the State of Connecticut Pollutant Mobility Criteria, and barium,
cadmium, chromium and lead were found in ground water samples collected froth the
subject site at levels exceeding the State of Connecticut(Ground Water Protection Criteria.
Specifically, cadmium in well MW-2, and barium, cadmium, chromium and lead in wells
MW-1 and MW-3 were detected at levels exceeding the Ground Water Protection Criteria.
On May 1, 1998, TRC personnel collected a second round of ground water samples from
wells MW-.I, MW-2 and MW-4 on the site. WeA MW=3 could not be located on the date
of sampling. It is TRC's opinion that this well may have been covered by a wood chip pile
which was not present on the site at the time of the original Phase II investigation. ,
Prior to sampling, the water level in each well wa:_measured. The volume of water in each
wall was calculated using the well depth and.depth to water. Three times the volume of
standing water was purged from each well using 3 dedicated, pre-cleaned teflon bailer and
polypropylene rope. After the wens were purl A, the water in each well was allowed to
equilibrate, and was subsequently sampled. Samples were delivered to Complete
Environmental Testing, Inc. (CET) in Shelton, ( :)nnecticut following appropriate shipping
and chain-of-custody procodures. The threw gmur._,i water samples and one field blank were
analyzed for total dissolved RCRA 8 metals.

As a result of the laboratory analysis of the three additional ground water samples collected
from the subject site, no detectable concentrations of metals were found in any of the
samples. A copy of the CET analytical report is attached.
Based on the results of the additional ground water sampling, it is TRC's opinion that no
further investigation with regard to the metals Originally detected in the ground water
monitoring was on the subject site is necessary. While the highest concentrations of metals
found as a result of the original Phase 11 investigation were in the ground water sample
collected from. well MW-3 (which could not be re-located), based on the estimated
northwesterly direction of ground water flow on the site, this well is considered to be an up
gradient well. Therefore, it does not appear that metals which may be present in this well
are migrating to other areas of the subject site. In addition, based on observations made by
TRC on the date of re-sampling which indicate that the former on-site demolition debris
piles, scrap metal, household chemical containers, car batteries, and junk vehicles have been
removed, it is TRC's opinion that no potential sources of metals contamination currently
exist on the site.
As stated in the 1996 Phase II environmental site assessment report for the subject site, it
is TRC's recommendation that the on-site underground storage lanky be properly removed
and disposed of along with any contaminated soil encountered during excavation activities.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at(860) 298-6331,
Sincerely,
TRC Environmental Corporation

1. The installation of the proposed stormwater structures does not appear in the construction
narrative. All stormwater structures must be installed and fully stable prior to the introduction
of runoff to them.
2. A cross section detail of the retention/infiltration trench should be shown. The detail should

with a high organic content material(compost)to 30%by volume.
3. The sediment structure placed prior to the infiltration trenches should be as efficient as possible
to minimize the likelihood of clogging the infiltrators. A more state-of—the-art structure should
be proposed(Baysaver, Vortechs, etc.).
4. The location of Test Pit# 1 should be shown. The current set of plans show two#2 pits.
5. The outlets for the overflow from the subsurface infiltrators and the retention basin are shown
to discharge at mid-slope and top of slope respectively. These outfalls need to discharge in a
safe and stable manner to minimize the likelihood of erosive cutting of soil on the slope._ This
will mean carrying the outfalls to the toe of the slope.

Re: Response to Comments
Appl#01-48P
420 John Fitch Boulevard
Dear Jeff:
I have received your comments regarding the application and plans for 420 John Fitch Blvd.
dated 11115101. Each comment is repeated and addressed below:
Comment 1: The installation of the proposed stormwater structures does not appear in the
construction narrative. All stormwater structures must be installed and fully stable prior to the
introduction of runoff to them.
The construction narrative on sheet 8 of 12 indicates that drainage and utilities will
be installed upon completion of rough grading at the site. In all likelihood, the
installation of the drainage system will be coincident with the construction of the site
building.
man nah-AiLe"
l rior 6 that time, runoff is expected to leave the site overland, and the
perimeter silt fence shall control sediment from leaving the site. In addition, filter
fabric will be required under the grates at all catch basins until the entire site is
stabilized.
Comment 2: A cross section detail of the retention/infiltration trench should be shown. The
detail should include seeding types and rates. Topsoil should be applied 8 to 12 inches thick and
amended with a high organic content material (compost) to 30%by volume.
tli v Aft -

However, the thickness and organic content of the topsoil that you propose
may prohibit the basin from providing the required infiltration that it is designed
for. We do not intend for this basin to hold any water for any length of time. In
fact, we are counting on a quick rate of infiltration in order to match pre-
development flows off of the site. To that end we are proposing to line the basin with

6 inches of washed stone in lieu of topsoil and seeding. This treatment should
promote the highest rate of infiltration. Because all of the_water entering this basin
is from overland flow and rooftop runoff, it should be clean and vegetation for
filtering should not be required.
Comment 3: The sediment structure placed prior to the infiltration trenches should be as
efficient as possible to minimize the likelihood of clogging the infiltrators. A more state-of-the-
art structure should be proposed (Baysaver, Vortechs, etc.)
The runoff that will enter this drainage system will come from lawn areas and the
paved areas outside of the buildings. The lawn areas are not expected to be a large
source of sediment. Likewise, all dumping, separating, sorting, crushing, and wood
chipping operations will occur within the site building, separated from the drainage
system by a trench drain that will discharge through an oil/water separator and into
the municipal sewer. The only exterior operations will consist of truck traffic and
transport(likely by loader) of sorted material to storage bins or rail cars. Thus,
there is not expected to be a significant amount of sediment generated in the paved
areas that will enter the system.
As you are likely aware, the sedimentation structure shown in the plans is the one
specified in the Town of South Windsor Public Improvement Specifications.
Replacement of the Town standard with a Baysaver or Vortech system is
anticipated to add significant cost. Based on the source of runoff going into the
system,we do not feel that the added cost for a more state-of-the-art system is
necessary. We believe that the proposed sedimentation structure, with the required
maintenance, will adequately serve the site.
Comment 4: The location of Test Pit#1 should be shown. The current set of plans show two #2
pits.
The plans will be revised to indicate that the Test Pit performed in the vicinity of the
surface retention/infiltration basin is Test Pit#1, not#2.
Comment S: The outlets for the overflow from the subsurface infiltrators and the retention basin
are shown to discharge at mid-slope and top of slope respectively. These outfalls need to
discharge in a safe and stable manner to minimize the likelihood of erosive cutting of soil on the
slope. This will mean carrying the outfalls to the toe of the slope.
The following table summarizes the calculated peak discharges at these outfalls for
the various design storms:
DRAINAGE OUTFALL PEAK DISCHARGE (cfs)
Outfall 2-year 10-year 25-year 100-year
Surface Basin 0 0 0 1.74
Subsurface Structures 0 0 0.34 2.00
Station3\c\mydocuments\2001-018\wetlands response.doc 420 John Fitch Boulevard, LLC
Page 3 of 3
December 10,2001
The Town of South Windsor Public Improvement Specifications call for storm
drains and minor ditches to be designed for the 10-year storm and cross-culverts
and channels for areas less than 200 acres to be designed for the 25-year storm.
Based on the insignificant discharges at these outfalls as shown in the table, erosive
cutting of soil on the slopes is not anticipated to occur. Therefore, it is our opinion
that additional slope protection should not be required at the outfalls.
I hope this letters satisfies your concerns. I understand that you are on vacation until December
14, 2001, and likely will not receive this letter until then. However, as the meeting is scheduled
for December 19th, it would be appreciated if you could contact us to discuss this letter in order
that we have time to make any required changes to the plans prior to the meeting. Please call me

MEMORANDUM
To: South Windsor Inland Wetland/Conservation Commission.
From: Jeffrey H. Folger- Zoning/Wetland Enforcement Officer
Date: December 14, 2001
Re: Appl # 01-48P - Review of the proposed Materials Recycling Facility, John Fitch
Blvd.
The application is allow a construction materials reclamation facility to be built on a 4.92
acre parcel. A 44,800-sqft building is proposed to be constructed where construction
debris will be separated and processed(crushed, shredded, etc.). Processed material will
then be stored onsite temporarily and shipped out by rail. Disturbance within the 80-foot
upland review area equals 6,165 sqft.
Site: The site is located in the Podunk River watershed. Historically,the site has been
used as an industrial site. Several small buildings currently exist on the site. Relief on
the site is flat. The surface is currently comprised of gravel, sand, and unconsolidated fill
materials (chunks of asphalt, concrete, glass, etc). Current wildlife habitat values on the
site are poor due to a lack of significant contiguous vegetation.
There are no wetlands on the site. However, there is a large(8+-acre) wetland abutting
the property to the north. This wetland is a remnant clay excavation area that has
developed an ecosystem over time. This wetland is connected directly to the Podunk
River via an outlet pipe from an old access road. The wetland would be characterized as
a persistent, emergent wetland type, with standing water most of the time, and herbaceous
and shrub vegetation as the dominant plant type. This type of wetland is generally
thought to be one of the most productive in terms of plant and animal diversity.
Major functions of this wetland area would be flood storage, nutrient and sediment
trapping, and wildlife habitat. Due to the size of the wetland, the vegetation present,
connectivity to the Podunk River, and the relative isolation of the area, wildlife habitat
values would be considered high. The esthetic values in this area are in my opinion high.
The wetland is on property not controlled by the applicant, and it is my belief that they
cannot obtain permission to locate the exact wetland boundaries. Using the best available
data, (Town topo maps, USGS topo maps)the wetland boundary has been estimated.
Combining this information with site inspections, I would concur that the wetland
boundary shown represents the best depiction with the data available. Note: The
applicant does have a drainage easement that extends halfway down the slope leading to
the wetland.
Stormwater from the site is proposed to be managed by surface and sub-surface
infiltration, with excess runoff outletted on the slope leading into the sand/clay pit. Roof
runoff from the main building is proposed to be discharged to a surface
retention/infiltration swale. Sub-surface infiltration galleys will handle runoff from the
rest of the site. Both the swale and the galleys have overflow pipes leading to an endwall
and splash pad on the side slope to the north.
Impacts: The soils on the majority of the site are listed as Windsor loamy fine sand
(WvA) 0 to 3% slopes by the Hartford County Soil Survey. These are very droughty
soils with rapid permeability and will be well suited for infiltration. The slopes leading
into the wetland are the product of excavation activities and are a subsoil component of
the soil profile. It is unclear in which direction infiltrated water flows. We know that the
geology of the area includes a clay layer. In fact the bottom of the excavated pit is said to
be into that layer. This is a concern with the transport direction of soluble pollutants.
The majority of the construction will occur on the flat portion of the site. For this
operation perimeter controls will be adequate. The outlet structures however are planned
to terminate mid-slope. The hydrologic report states that expected post development
flows to design point#2 (western most outlet) is 3.65 cfs for the 100-year storm. This
will exceed the 1-cfs permissible flow rate recommended by the USDA NRCS. Slope
protection is needed to prevent erosive cutting on the slope by discharged flows for this
storm on adjacent property.
Runoff borne pollutants are a major concern in a site where heavy machinery is used to
manipulate debris of varied and questionable origin. Proposed storage bins used to hold
processed material are not covered. This is a concern. Rainwater could leach water-
soluble chemicals and metal from processed material into the soil/groundwater. Also,
there is a concern that material, including sediment, could enter the infiltration system
where there are minimal treatment opportunities. The proposed plan includes trap hood
on catchbasins and a standard Type I sediment chamber. The efficiency of the Type I
sediment chamber in trapping sediment is significantly below that of some of the current
stormwater treatment products available. This can be important in a situation where the
receiving structure after the sediment chamber has no treatment capability for metals, or
soluble chemicals like arsenic.
The proposed landscape plan does not provide for species that are readily utilized by
wildlife.

Re: Appl # 01-48P - Review of Materials Reduction Facility, 420 John Fitch Blvd. - Plans dated
11115101.
I have reviewed the site plans for the proposed Materials Reduction Facility with the following
additional comments:
Atmospheric deposition has been identified as a contributing factor to water quality impacts by the EPA.
In order to determine if the operations associated with the Materials Reduction Facility has the potential
to impair water quality from air borne particulates:
1. A detailed operations and maintenance plan should be provided as it relates to air borne
particulates generated by the sorting/reduction process. What is the size range of particulates
generated as a result of the materials processing operation? What is the potential chemical
composition of particulates generated by the reduction process?
2. The loading/staging areas of the freight train storage cars should be isolated so that spillage of
loaded material or seepage from the cars can be captured and recovered, or treated prior to
introduction to the infiltrator system.
3. The stormwater treatment structure placed prior to the infiltration trenches should be capable of
capturing the finer portion of the generated particulate range, and any potential water-soluble
material.

Introduction
The following guidelines have been prepared to assist in the preparation of the Facility Plan for a permit to
construct and/or operate a volume reduction plant which is designed to process 2000 pounds/hour or more of
solid waste,where all or a portion of the waste stream consists of construction/demolition debris.
DEP may amend these guidelines as necessary in order to insure that the facility is constructed and operated in
compliance with all applicable laws.
Definitions
For the purposes of these guidelines,the following definitions apply:
j "Construction/Demolition Waste"means waste building materials and packaging resulting from construction,
remodeling,repair,and/or demolition operations on houses,commercial buildings,and other man-made
structures. Demolition and construction waste includes but is not limited to lumber,rebar and plaster,but
excludes concrete,bricks,ceramics,and asphalt paving fragments which are defined as clean fill in Section
22a-209-1 Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies(RCSA).
"Processing"means the practice by which either the physical characteristics of a waste material are altered,or the
volume is reduced through separating,baling,shredding,crushing,grinding,chipping,compacting,or reworking
the waste material as part of the volume reduction operation.
"Regional"refers to a facility which serves two or more municipalities.
"Municipal"refers to a facility for which the permittee is a municipality.
"Private"refers to a facility for which the permittee is an individual/proprietor,a partnership,or a corporation.
"Transfer Station"refers to any location or structure,whether on land or water,where more than ten cubic yards
of solid waste,generated elsewhere,may be stored for transfer or transferred from transportation units and placed
in other transportation units for movement to another location,whether or not such waste is stored at the location
prior to transfer(Section 22a-207 CGS).
When preparing the Facility Plan(Operation and Management Plan and Engineering Drawings)for the facility,
the following design and operating criteria must be taken into account.
I
j A. Design Criteria
I
In addition to the requirements of Section 22a-209-10 RCSA,all volume reduction plants processing
construction/demolition waste must be designed to meet the following criteria:
1. On-site roads must be designed to accommodate expected traffic flow in a safe and efficient
manner.
2. Road surfaces must be constructed of all-weather materials suitable for heavy vehicles and
designed to withstand expected loads.
3. Tipping,processing,storage and loading areas must be designed and sized to allow efficient
waste handling and unobstructed movement of vehicles.
Bureau of Waste Management
DEP-WEED-GUID-100 3 of 7 Rev.03/10/95
Jeff Folger-C&D guidelines.doc Page 4
4. Tipping,processing,storage and loading areas must be equipped with adequate drainage to
prevent the accumulation of water. Stormwater and/or wastewater collection systems must meet
all applicable design and permitting requirements of the Water Management Bureau.
5. Truck wheel curbs and tie downs must be provided at all elevated loading and unloading areas.
6. For facilities allowing residential drop-off,separate access must be provided to minimize
potential accidents and unauthorized entry.
7. All construction/demolition waste tipping and processing areas must be located within an
j enclosed,roofed structure equipped with adequate ventilation and fire protection systems and an
impervious floor(e.g.concrete, asphalt,etc.).
8. The quantity of unprocessed construction/demolition waste stored on-site must not exceed three
(8 hour)days of the maximum design capacity of the facility for that waste.
9. Processed construction/demolition waste must be stored using one of the following methods:
• outside in containers which are watertight and covered at all times except when material
is being actively placed in or removed from the container,
• outside in a pile(s)located on an impervious pad(e.g.concrete,asphalt,etc.)provided
the pile(s)is covered at all times except when material is actively being placed on or
removed from the pile,or
• otherwise covered and enclosed as approved by DEP.
10. For processed construction/demolition waste stored in piles:
• pile height must not exceed 15 feet
p g ,
• all waste pile storage areas must be equipped with stormwater run-on/run-off controls
which comply with all applicable stormwater management requirements of the Water
Management Bureau,and
i
• a minimum separating distance of 50 feet must be maintained between and around all
piles to allow fire and emergency vehicle access.
11. The quantity of processed construction/demolition waste stored on-site must not exceed ten(8
hour)days of the maximum design capacity of the facility for that waste. No processed
j construction/demolition waste shall be stored on-site for greater than 30 days.
12. Residues may be stored outside provided they are kept in containers and the containers are
watertight and covered at all times except when waste is being actively placed in or removed
from the container.
B. Operating Criteria
In addition to the requirements of Section 22a-209-10 RCSA,all volume reduction plants processing
construction/demolition waste must be operated in accordance with the following criteria:
Bureau of Waste Management
i
DEP-WEED-GUM-100 4 of 7 Rev.03/10/95

Subject: Proposed new Mannarino Subdivision, East side, 960 Avery Street
Ref: Public Hearing on the above subject at Town Hall on the 9`s Jan 2002
ktr. Folder,
I was glad to see that the committee is looking at the possible alternatives prior to making the final
decision.
Per my discussion at the referenced hearing both Dave Viar and I expressed possible alternatives to
the development that would:
a-Beaer protect the-wetland and nature currently on the site.
b-Protect the existing mature trees that add to the ecosystem and aesthetic beauty of the area.
c-Reduce the need for conservation easements on lots
and
d-u-nprove the value of many of the lots.
To facilitate in the evaluation of possible alternative and better express my ideas and concepts, I
have drafted three possible options.
These are ruff sltietches to better visualize the potential and are not intended to be the final
,product. The applicant could with, relative ease in my opinion, generate computer models
based on these sketches in order to optimize them and take into account the true scales, town
and state regulations etc.
The Options are depicted as: (see attached)
Al- Revised Phase 2 with L shape street
A2 Revised Phase 2 with L street with island divider(Variation of A1)
B Phase 2 with access from Phase I and not Sweet meadow
Please pass these possible alternatives to the Planning &: Zoning committee, the Wetland
preservation committee and who ever else you feel has a need or interest in such proposals.

Description of the tnnssihle alternatives:
A l- Revised Phase ? with L shape street
:�kS See ri t3i 11ro{lV�� street ',s • ' shape to m.- a better, useof thi- n :rth elast corner.
As expressed in the meeting 1 think Lot 10 can he moved on the north side of the street due to the
tvnaer avEtilable street Length.
The street dk,--ider in front of Iots 14 was removed ws the Space is in my opinion better used by
t OVIn tiiz hoiiS2S a�tiay ii(}m the i�'etiat'id. i otS hand 17 were rearranged Slightly. r
As lot 10 no loner limits the street definition. the curved was moved further south. This improved
lots 24 and 23) by allowing the houses to be liirther from the current tree-line. The house on lot 9 can
also be moved further from the tree-line as lot 10 was relocated.
The created open lot (where lot 10 used to be) could possibly be developed into a nice little
pedestrian entry area to the open space. ,
Benetits:
a-better protect the wetland and mature currently on the site.
Moves houses 10 out of the wetland area
Moves lots I 1-15 further away from the wetland
b-Protect the existing mature trees that add to the ecosystem and aesthetic beauty of the area.
Moves houses 9 and 24 away from the tree line
Nloves lots I I-l 5 further away from the Marl trn:,
c-Reduce the need far conservation easenient on lots
Lot 10 and I i are moved out.
d-improve the value of many of the lots.
Lots 10 & I I are improved by not having the restrictions imposed by the wetland
conservation.

can be better utilized by the future owners.
Currently, lot '10 and 'If in particular have extremely long backyard on which the
growth is not very attractive small brush that has overtaken the area.
January 17, 2002
A2- Revised Phase 2 with L shape street with middle island
Features:
Minor variation on option A].
A middle Island added to improved lot 12, which was compressed due to the inside corner in option
Al.
With the use of the island the north part of the development could be further optimized. I was limited
when doing option A l by lot arrangement of lots on the south side of the street(as expressed in the
above point.)
Street Island are present on 2 streets near my father.in law's resides. They are of good size and have
trees. They form a central place for rids to play. The issue of island maintenance needs to be
addressed by the town/applicant. as does the maintenance of the turning islands in the current
proposal.
Benefits:
Same benefits as option A
Provides even better use of the available area by moving the houses on the outside of the area where
the mature trees provide value to the home owners while respecting the natural beauty of the area.
January 17, 2002
B- Phase 2 with access from Phase 1 and not Sweet meadow
As a resident of Talcott Ridge road I have 2 issues with the fact that phase 2 of the project has access
from Sweet Meadow drive.
1- Added traffic on Talcott Ridge will mean increased danger potential for kids.
It should be noted that the proposed 16 houses is 31% of our 51 lot area
which is a significant number.
2- The residents of Chase Orchard HOA are currently assuming the burden of the street
sidewalk and grass from the clubhouse to Avery. (grass fertilization, grass cutting,
snow removal and general upkeep expenses).
I would consider it economically unfair if phase 2 was built with Sweet Meadow
access without participation in these costs.
Features:
With this option I am exploring possibility of making a stand alone development.
I realize that many may have strong objection to this proposal as it crosses the open space. However,
my proposal strives to accomplish this-with minimum intrusion on the open space. The road would
pass through the open space but that is similar to roads through park-land or for that matter the
access road to Cutler's Ridge H.
The location of the proposed road would be where the current remains of the access road is. We
therefore have a precedent for a road in the proposed area. The services could remain as currently
planned with the services for phase 2 coming from Sweet Meadow. This would mean that only
electricity for the street light would be required in the street section where no houses are planned.
The street could therefore follow the current elevations with the exception of a crossing for the
stream. The drain water could be managed to the side as is done in parks or rural areas.
The provided sketch phase one was reconfigured to relocate lot 9 from phase 2 to phase 1. This
enables the elimination of lot 9 in phase 2 where the road emerges and does not reduce the total
number of lots.
The rest of phase 2 can be per proposals Al or A2.
Benefits:
In addition to the Benefits of proposals Al or A2 I see the following benefits.
a-Better protect the wetland and nature currently on the site.
Moves houses 9 and 10 out of the wetland area
Moves lot 5 further from the pound
b-Protect the existing mature trees that add to the ecosystem and aesthetic beauty of the area.
Moves houses 9 and 24 away from the tree line
c-Reduce the need for conservation easements on lots
And reduces the traffic on Talcott Ridge.

RE: Appl# 01-48P
Volume Reduction/Transfer Station Facility
420 John Fitch Boulevard
Dear Mr. Folger:
In response to the comments presented in your letter to J.R.Russo&Associates dated January
2, 2002, we are providing you with the following responses and supporting documentation to
complete your review and application processing. Our responses are numbered as the
comments were presented in the letter.
1. You are receiving on this date under separate cover and simultaneously herewith three
(3)copies of the Operation and Management(O&M)Plan for the project. SectionE.-
Environmental Controls of the O&M Plan addresses how dust will be generated and
controlled within the processing operations. All of the processing operations will
occur within the enclosed processing building. The building will have an air handling
system that will maintain inward flow of air to the building and the blower exhaust will
be filtered to remove particulate to the 10 micron level. This will ensure that airborne
particulate generated from the processing operations will be contained within the
facility and have no measurable impact on the surrounding properties and nearby
wetlands. The O&M Plan describes the measures that will be used in the processing
operations to control dust generation at the source. The primary controls include
water misting of the waste stream to minimize airborne particulate and the use of
enclosures over crushing and mechanical screening equipment to contain particulate at
the processing source. Grinding of non-painted and untreated wood material will have
similar misting and particulate control enclosures. Painted wood materials will only be
sorted and separated from the waste stream and will not be ground or processed. The
other sorting operations will have low dust potential due to the nature of the operation
and the materials being sorted. Daily sweeping and misting of material at the tipping
floor will minimize airborne particulate during the pre-processing handling. The
concrete, block, brick and unpainted wood materials that will be crushed,ground and
screened have low potential for containing any hazardous or harmful chemical
constituents. In fact, the CTDEP Regulations classify concrete, block and brick as
clean fill and they are not regulated under the Solid Waste Management Regulations.
Any materials entering the facility that are stained with oily residues or other liquids
will be segregated from the material to be processed and will be handled as described
in the O&M Plan. The proposed operations have incorporated best management
5 Waterside Crossing • Windsor, Connecticut 06095-1563
Telephone 860-298-9692 • fax 860-298-6399
practices with regard to airborne particulate control for a facility of this type and will
be protective of the surrounding environment.
2. The current proposed operation plan for the facility anticipates possible future use of
the rail spur to ship processed material from the facility. The details of the material
transfer from the facility to rail cars are not being provided with this submission,due to
vendor and operator specific design issues that cannot be defined at this time. When
future detailed plans for the rail operation are developed, the Inland Wetland and
Watercourse Commission will be brought into the review and approval process. In any
event, design of future rail transfer facilities will incorporate measures to contain and
isolate material spillage and prevent contact with rainfall or provide proper treatment
prior to discharge to the stormwater management system.
3. Surface runoff from the vehicle operations area of the site will be collected via catch
basin inlets,which will be equipped with discharge pipe hoods to separate oily residues
from runoff that is sent via pipe to the subsurface infiltration system. Each catch basin
will have a sump to trap sediment that enters from paved areas. Sediment entering the
system will be minimal, since all processing operations are contained inside the building
and all roads accessing the site will be paved. Routine sweeping of paved areas as
described in the O&M Plan will minimize sediment entering the stormwater
management system. All of the surface runoff entering the piped stormwater collection
system must pass through a Vortechnic Separator and weir/baffle basin system. This
pre-treatment will further filter sediment and ensure oily residues are not discharged to
the subsurface infiltration system. The owner/operator ofthe system will manage the
site operations, perform routine stormwater management system maintenance and
monitor the discharge to ensure compliance with the CTDEP regulations governing
stormwater and groundwater discharges.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 860-298-6231

Guidelines for Completing the Facility Plan for a Permit to
Construct and Operate a Volume Reduction Plant Processing
Construction/Demolition Wastes
Bureau of Waste Management
DEP-WEED-GLIID-100 1 of 7 Rev.03/10/95
Introduction
The following guidelines have been prepared to assist in the preparation of the Facility Plan for a permit to
construct and/or operate a volume reduction plant which is designed to process 2000 pounds/hour or more of
solid waste,where all or a portion of the waste stream consists of construction/demolition debris.
DEP may amend these guidelines as necessary in order to insure that the facility is constructed and operated in
compliance with all applicable laws.
Definitions
For the purposes of these guidelines,the following definitions apply:
"Construction/Demolition Waste" means waste building materials and packaging resulting from construction,
remodeling,repair,and/or demolition operations on houses, commercial buildings,and other man-made
structures. Demolition and construction waste includes but is not limited to lumber,rebar and plaster, but
excludes concrete,bricks, ceramics,and asphalt paving fragments which are defined as clean fill in Section
22a-209-1 Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies(RCSA).
"Processing"means the practice by which either the physical characteristics of a waste material are altered, or the
volume is reduced through separating,baling,shredding,crushing, grinding,chipping,compacting,or reworking
the waste material as part of the volume reduction operation.
'Regional' refers to a facility which serves two or more municipalities.
"Municipal" refers to a facility for which the permittee is a municipality.
"Private" refers to a facility for which the permittee is an individual/proprietor, a partnership, or a corporation.
"Transfer Station" refers to any location or structure,whether on land or water,where more than ten cubic yards
of solid waste, generated elsewhere,may be stored for transfer or transferred from transportation units and placed
in other transportation units for movement to another location, whether or not such waste is stored at the location
prior to transfer(Section 22a-207 CGS).
When preparing the Facility Plan(Operation and Management Plan and Engineering Drawings)for the facility,
the following design and operating criteria must be taken into account.
A. Design Criteria
In addition to the requirements of Section 22a-209-10 RCSA, all volume reduction plants processing
construction/demolition waste must be designed to meet the following criteria:
1. On-site roads must be designed to accommodate expected traffic flow in a safe and efficient
manner.
2. Road surfaces must be constructed of all-weather materials suitable for heavy vehicles and
designed to withstand expected loads.
3. Tipping,processing, storage and loading areas must be designed and sized to allow efficient
waste handling and unobstructed movement of vehicles.
Bureau of Waste Management
DEP-WEED-GUID-100 2 of 7 Rev.03/10/95
4. Tipping,processing,storage and loading areas must be equipped with adequate drainage to
prevent the accumulation of water. Stormwater and/or wastewater collection systems must meet
all applicable design and permitting requirements of the Water Management Bureau.
5. Truck wheel curbs and tie downs must be provided at all elevated loading and unloading areas.
6. For facilities allowing residential drop-off, separate access must be provided to minimize
potential accidents and unauthorized entry.
7. All construction/demolition waste tipping and processing areas must be located within an
enclosed,roofed structure equipped with adequate ventilation and fire protection systems and an
impervious floor(e.g.concrete, asphalt, etc.).
8. The quantity of unprocessed construction/demolition waste stored on-site must not exceed three
(8 hour)days of the maximum design capacity of the facility for that waste.
9. Processed construction/demolition waste must be stored using one of the following methods:
• outside in containers which are watertight and covered at all times except when material
is being actively placed in or removed from the container,
• outside in a pile(s) located on an impervious pad(e.g.concrete,asphalt, etc.)provided
the pile(s) is covered at all times except when material is actively being placed on or
removed from the pile, or
• otherwise covered and enclosed as approved by DEP.
10. For processed construction/demolition waste stored in piles:
• pile height must not exceed 15 feet,
• all waste pile storage areas must be equipped with stormwater run-on/run-off controls
which comply with all applicable stormwater management requirements of the Water
Management Bureau, and
• a minimum separating distance of 50 feet must be maintained between and around all
piles to allow fire and emergency vehicle access.
11. The quantity of processed construction/demolition waste stored on-site must not exceed ten(8
hour)days of the maximum design capacity of the facility for that waste. No processed
construction/demolition waste shall be stored on-site for greater than 30 days.
12. Residues may be stored outside provided they are kept in containers and the containers are
watertight and covered at all times except when waste is being actively placed in or removed
from the container.
B. Operating Criteria
In addition to the requirements of Section 22a-209-10 RCSA,all volume reduction plants processing
construction/demolition waste must be operated in accordance with the following criteria:

Sec. 22a-209-7. Solid waste disposal areas
Solid waste disposal areas shall comply with the following permit and oper-
ating requirements..
(a) Any person wishing to operate a solid waste disposal area must com-
ply with the permit requirements of Section 22a-209-4 of these regulations.
(b) The information which the Commissioner requires in an application may
' vary according to the category of the disposal area. Such categories may
include:
(1) existing solid waste disposal areas where future disposal will take place
only in areas where solid waste has previously been disposed of and is still
present,
(2) existing solid waste disposal areas where future disposal will take place
in areas where no solid waste had previously been disposed of, or, if solid
waste had previously been disposed of, it has been removed, and
(3) new solid waste disposal areas.
(c) Protection of ground and surface waters. (1) Minimum separation
from ground waters. A minimum of sixty (60) inches shall be maintained
between the base of deposited solid wastes and the maximum high water
table or bedrock unless the permittee can establish to the satisfaction of the
Commissioner that some lesser separation will be adequate to insure that
solid wastes do not contact ground water. This provision shall not apply to
solid waste disposal areas subject to solid waste permits granted prior to
the effective date of these regulations which expressly authorize a minimum
separation from ground water or bedrock of less than sixty(60)inches, pro-
vided that the permittee establishes to the satisfaction of the Commissioner
that the continuation of solid waste disposal in accordance with such exist-
ing permit will not result in contact of solid waste with ground water.
(2) Water quality. (A) In addition to the requirement of 22a-209-7 (c) (1)
above, and except as provided in 22a-209-7 (c) (2) (B) below, a new or exist-
ing solid waste disposal area shall not impair the quality of surface or ground
water beyond the solid waste boundary to a degree that would degrade the
quality of such waters beyond the water quality classification established

I. INTRODUCTION
A. Project Description
' The 420 John Fitch Boulevard LLC is proposing to develop approximately 4.92 acres of
land located at 420 John Fitch Boulevard in South Windsor, Connecticut. The project
' proposes the construction of a 27,619 square foot Materials Reduction Facility, 4,800
square foot storage shed, paved parking drainage and utilities. The roof runoff from the
proposed materials processing building will be routed to an on-site retention/infiltration
basin where it will infiltrate back into the ground. Runoff from the majority of the
remainder of the site will be collected via catch basins and routed through one of two
subsurface retention/infiltration systems for discharge back into the ground.
The existing traprock access road that enters the site through easements from the John
Fitch Boulevard (Rte. 5) is also proposed to be paved. Approximately 25,458 square feet
' of traprock surface is proposed to be replaced by approximately 25,503 square feet of
pavement. Both traprock and pavement are considered impervious. Currently, runoff
from the majority of the access road sheet flows onto abutting properties. The proposed
' pavement will be graded to match the existing conditions so that drainage patterns will
not change. As a result, paving the road is not expected to have a significant impact on
the runoff. Thus, the access road and its surrounding drainage area are not included
' further in this analysis.
B. Existing Conditions
A small office building and three larger warehouse buildings currently occupy the site. A
spur of the Connecticut Southern Railroad enters and terminates on the northwestern
' portion of the site. The majority of the site consists of packed traprock cover with the
exception of a narrow strip of trees along the southern boundary and an area overgrown
with brush to the east. Some overgrown piles of wood, concrete, bricks, and other debris
' are located on the southern and eastern portions of the site.
The majority of the site slopes slightly toward an existing detention basin on the abutting
property to the southwest. The northern portion of the site slopes gently toward the north.
A steep slope exists just beyond the northern boundary that leads down to a former mined
clay pit to the north. The site is relatively flat at an elevation of approximately 68 feet.
' Based on a review of the USDA Soil Survey of Hartford County, Connecticut soil types
Ypes
at the site consist of Windsor Loamy Coarse Sand (Wu) and Windsor Loamy Fine Sand
' (Wv). See Figure 1 in Appendix 1, Soils Map. These Windsor soil types have Hydrologic
Soil Groups (HSG) classification A. Group A soils have a high infiltration rate when
thoroughly wet and a low runoff potential. They typically are deep, well drained, and
sandy or gravelly.

Two test pits and percolation tests were conducted at the site on October 8, 2001 to
' confirm soil conditions at the site. The test pit and perc test locations and results are
provided on Sheet 4 of the plan set. The test pits confirmed the presence of fine loamy
sand subsoil overlying a fine to coarse loamy sand substratum consistent with the USDA
description for Windsor soils. No clay or evidence of the water table was detected in
either of the test pits at that time. Perc tests performed at the test pit locations revealed a
perc rate in the fine loamy sand subsoil at test pit#1 of approximately 8 min/in, and a rate
' in the fine to coarse loamy sand substratum at test pit#2 of approximately 0.33 min/in.
Subsequently, data regarding historical borings and monitoring well gauging performed
' at the site was obtained from TRC Environmental. TRC installed four monitoring wells
at the site in 1996. The boring logs indicate that no clay was encountered in the vicinity
of the proposed surface basin to at a minimum depth of approximately 10 feet (the bottom
of the boring). Clay was encountered in the vicinity of the proposed subsurface
infiltration basins at a depth of approximately 14 feet. Groundwater gauging results from
May of 1998 indicate that the seasonal high water table in the vicinity of the proposed
surface basin is approximately 5.5 feet below the ground surface. Likewise, gauging in
May of 1998 indicate that the seasonal high water table in the vicinity of the proposed
subsurface basins is approximately 7.5 feet below the ground surface. This information
' was taken into account during the design"of the proposed infiltration structures.
II. STORMWA TER R UNOFF ANAL YSIS
A. Methodology
Peak runoff flow rates were determined for pre- and post-development conditions using
Applied Microcomputer System's HydroCADTM Stormwater Modeling System. This
' computer software employs the SCS Technical Release 55 and 20 (TR-55 & TR-20)
methodology. The potential stormwater impacts downstream were evaluated for the 2-yr,
10-yr, 25-yr, and 100-yr; 24-hour storm events.
Based on the present drainage patterns at the site, two design points were selected in
order to determine allowable release rates from the proposed stormwater management
systems and surrounding on site drainage areas. Design point #1 is the southwestern
property boundary runoff discharges off-site prior to entering an.adjacent detention basin.
Design point #2 is the northern property boundary leading toward the former clay pit.
' Design point locations are shown on the Drainage Plans in Appendix 1.
B. Pre Development Hydrology
' As discussed above, based on the site topography, two design points were chosen for
analysis. The pre-development drainage area (DA41) contributing to Design Point 41
' consists of approximately 3.91 acres. The pre-development drainage area (DA#2)
Sta3\c:\mydocuments\2001-018\drainage.doc Page 2 of 6 420 John Fitch Blvd.
' J.R.Russo&Associates Drainage Report
' contributingDesign
to g Point #2 consists of approximately 1.69 acres. These areas are
shown on the attached Pre-Development Drainage Plan in Appendix 1. Table 1
summarizes the pre-development stormwater results for each subcatchment and design
point. Data sheets from HydroCAD are provided in Appendix 2.

C. Post-Development Hydrology
' The development of the project site will
p p � include the demolition of one warehouse
building, the partial demolition of another, the construction of a 27,619 square foot
' materials processing building, the construction of a storage shed, the construction of new
paved areas, the conversion of existing impervious areas to lawn, and the installation of
utilities. Overall, the project will result in a decrease in impervious area at the site
(approximately 0.27 acres). However, due to the lack of an appropriate outlet for a
subsurface drainage system to the south, detention/retention is required to maintain post
' development peak flows below pre-development levels. Based on the limited space
available at the site, a combination of subsurface and surface retention structures were
designed to reduce peak flows to pre-development levels.
The redevelopment of the site will result in eight subcatchments as shown on the Post
Development Drainage Plan in Appendix 1. yOne subcatchment (1) will continue to
' discharge overland to the south and west toward Design Point #1. Runoff in
subcatchments 2 and 3 will be collected via catch basins and routed through subsurface
infiltration/retention system#1. Runoff in subcatchments 4, 5 and 6, will be collected via
catch basins and routed through subsurface infiltration/retention system #2. Runoff from
the roof of the proposed building (subcatchment 7) will be diverted via gutters and paved
swales to a surface infiltration/retention basin. Runoff from the final subcatchment (8)
will continue to flow overland toward the northern property boundary (Design Point #2).
The post development subcatchment characteristics are summarized in Table 2.
' Subsurface infiltration/retention system #1 consists of 746 lineal feet of 24" diameter
perforated pipe laid in a bed of 3/4-inch stone. The overall dimensions of system #1 are
34'x68', with a bottom area (A) of 2,312 square feet. Between the pipe and the
' surrounding stone (assuming 40% voids), the system provides a storage volume of
approximately 5,105 cubic feet prior to backing up into the piping system. The depth of
the system (approximately 5' to the bottom) is such that the bottom is located within the
extremely permeable (0.33 min/in) fine-coarse loamy sand encountered in the test pits.
Sta3\c:\mydocuments\2001-018\drainage.doc Page 3 of 6 420 John Fitch Blvd.
' J.R.Russo&Associates Drainage Report
According to the USDA Soil Survey, Windsor soils have A permeability that ranges from
' 6 to 20 in/hour (1.39E-4 to 4.63E-4 feet per second). Based on the rapid perc rate
observed, the latter permeability was used to determine the infiltration rate of the system.
Multiplying the bottom area (2,312 so by the soil permeability of (4.63-4 fps) gives an
overall infiltration rate for the system of approximately 1.07 cfs. Assuming 50%
clogging for worst case, the design infiltration rate for the system used in the HydroCAD
program is 0.54 cfs.

' Subsurface in i "S e infiltration/retention system #2 consists of 1,294 lineal feet of 24 diameter
perforated pipe laid in a bed of 3/4-inch stone. The overall dimensions of the system are
' 37'x108', with a bottom area (A) of 3,996 square feet. Between the pipe and the
surrounding stone (assuming 40% voids), the system provides a storage volume of
approximately 8,831 cubic feet prior to backing up into the piping system. The depth of
' the system (approximately 6' to the bottom) is such that the bottom is located within the
extremely permeable (0.33 min/in) fine-coarse loamy sand layer. Using the estimated
' permeability for this sand of 4.63E-4 feet per second and multiplying by the bottom area
(3,996 sf) gives an overall infiltration rate for the system of approximately 1.85 cfs.
Assuming 50% clogging for worst case, the design infiltration rate for the system used in
' the HydroCAD program is 0.93 cfs.
The surface infiltration/retention basin is a three-foot deep, 6,136 square foot basin with a
storage capacity of approximately 10,935 cubic feet. The depth of the basin is such that
the bottom will likely be located within the fine loamy sand subsoil that had a perc rate of
approximately 8 min/in. Based on this perc rate, the permeability of 1.39E-4 fps was used
' to determine the infiltration rate from the basin. The basin is to be lined with 6" of 3/4"
washed stone to ensure that infiltration is not impeded. As a conservative assumption,
only the basin bottom area (3,414 sf at elevation 66.0) was used to determine the
' infiltration rate. The side slope area is ignored. Multiplying the bottom area (3,414 sf)
by the permeability (1.39E-4 fps) gives an infiltration rate for the basin of 0.48 cfs.
Assuming 50% clogging for worst case, the design infiltration rate for the basin used in
the HydroCAD program is 0.24 cfs.
Sta3\c:\mydocuments\2001-018\drainage.doc Page 4 of 6 420 John Fitch Blvd.
' J.R.Russo&Associates Drainage Report
Using the retention and infiltration characteristics described above, the Post Development
peak flow rates were calculated. Refer to Appendix 3 for HydroCAD data sheets.
Subsurface infiltration/retention system 92 and the surface infiltration/retention basin are
' designed such that there is no discharge (other than infiltration into the ground) during all
design storms, including the 100-year storm. Subsurface infiltration/retention system 41
can accommodate up to the 25-year storm with only minor flooding around catch basins
#1 (approximately 1") and #2 (approximately 5"). During the 100-year storm, the
flooding in these areas will be greater, resulting in flow over the drive toward Design
Point #1 to the south, adding to the contribution from subcatchment 1. For all other
' design storms, subcatchment 1 is the only area contributing to flow at Design Point #1.
Table 3 compares the pre-development flows with the post-development for each design
point. The resulting post-development peak flows at the design points are less than the
' pre-development peak flows for each of the design storms.

' D. Pipe Sizing
' The piping proposed at the site consists of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) corrugated
plastic pipe (CPP) in unpaved areas and Class V Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP) in
paved areas. The roughness coefficient used for CCP and RCP are 0.1 and 0.15,
respectively. A minimum cover of 2.0 feet is provided for all CCP. A minimum of 1-foot
of cover is provided for all Class V RCP. In order to ensure that the post development
peak flows do not exceed the pre-development levels, all pipes were sized to
' accommodate the 100-year storm so that all runoff is diverted to the infiltration/retention
systems. The HydroCAD printouts in Appendix 3 show that the capacities of the pipes
are not exceeded for the 100-year storm.
' E. Treatment
' Based on the Town of South Windsor Public Improvement Specifications, treatment is to
be provided for 90% of the runoff-producing storms on an annual basis, prior to discharge
to a receiving water or wetland. The DEP has established that this is equivalent to
' treating runoff for all storms up to 1.25 inches. A 1.25-inch storm is significantly less
than the 3.2 inch, 2-year storm. As shown in Table 3, no runoff will leave the site during
a 3.2-inch storm; thus, it can be deduced that no runoff will leave the site during the 1.25-
Sta3\c:\mydocuments\2001-018\drainage.doc Page 5 of 6 420 John Fitch Blvd.
J.R.Russo&Associates Drainage Report
inch storm. All stormwater will infiltrate during those storm events so the quality of
1 runoff into receiving waters and wetlands is not a factor.
The runoff discharging to the surface infiltration/retention basin is strictly from the roof
' and grassed areas. Thus, no pre-treatment is deemed necessary for the surface basin.
Subsurface infiltration/retention system #1, receives runoff from a combination of lawn
areas and portion of the paved drive to the east of the scales. Catch basins #1 and #2 will
' be equipped with trap hoods to remove oils and floatables, and sumps to remove solids,
prior to entering the infiltration/retention system.
Subsurface infiltration/retention system#2 will receive runoff from all of the paved areas
around the processing building. At the request of Town Staff, a Vortechs Stormwater
Treatment System, Model 3000 will be installed prior to the subsurface system #2 to
' remove sediment and oils prior to infiltration back into the groundwater. The Model
3000 can accommodate up to 4.5 cfs (greater than the 10-year design storm). A bypass
structure is provided to allow larger storms to flow by. The Vortechs system has a
' reported suspended solid removal efficiency of greater than 80%.
The subsurface infiltration/retention systems will be equipped with cleanout ports and
access manholes to provide maintenance. As noted on the plans, the catch basins,
sedimentation structure, infiltration/retention basin, and subsurface infiltration/retention
system shall be inspected at least once a year, and any sediment and floatables removed.

MEMORANDUM
To: South Windsor Inland Wetland/Conservation Commission.
From: Jeffrey H. Folger- Zoning/Wetland Enforcement Officer
Date: February 13, 2002
Re: Appl# 01-48P - Review of the proposed Materials Recycling Facility, John Fitch
Blvd. Revised plans dated 02-04-02
The revised plans propose a reduced main processing building size from 44,800 sqft to
27,619 sgft. The processed material storage will be within a separate, enclosed building.
This plan does not show a connection to the existing rail spur located on the western
portion of the lot.
The parking lot, and roof stormwater receiving structures are both proposed to
accommodate the 100-year storm volumes. Both of the structures will infiltrate 100% of
the runoff with no discharge to adjacent wetlands.
I have interviewed several people from DEP (Inland Wetland and Solid Waste Divisions)
on the subject of impacts to wetlands by airborne particulates. In Connecticut, there are
no documented instances of wetlands being negatively impacted by deposition of
airborne particulates. The DEP utilizes OSHA standards in the control of dust and other
airborne particulates. A web search revealed information concerning impacts to
waterbodies by atmospheric deposition of chemicals in the Midwest. These reports were
concerned with large multiple generators of chemicals and metals. Nothing pertinent to
this application was found. Based on the report submitted, the procedures and
maintenance operations proposed should not produce particulate levels off site any
different than any other industrial operation in the area.
All activities will be accomplished inside the respective buildings. A water mist type
particulate recovery system is proposed to contain particulates generated by the sorting
and reducing process. An air filtering system is proposed to be installed that will capture
particulates up to 10 microns in size.
Runoff within the building will be captured via a floor drain connected to the Town
sanitary sewer system.
The majority of the construction will occur on the flat portion of the site. For this
operation perimeter controls will be adequate.

INLAND WETLANDS AGENCY
A. OPERATIONS CONSERVATION COMMISSION
A-1 MATERIAL SOURCES
The proposed volume reduction, recycling, and transfer station will receive
construction and demolition debris and special waste from throughout the
Greater Hartford Area.
A-2 MATERIAL COLLECTION
The proposed Volume Reduction Facility and Transfer Station (The
Facility) will consist of one scale, a materials processing building (for tipping,
sorting, processing and temporary storing of waste/materials), a covered outdoor
storage building, a rail spur, maintenance building and employee area to include
toilet, lockers and showers and the facility office building (see Engineering
Drawings). Materials to be processed will be received from licensed waste
haulers only. The facility will not accept any waste or debris delivered in private
automobiles or trucks. Prior to use of The Facility all customers will be informed
that they are responsible for compliance with all State and Federal laws
regarding toxic and hazardous waste disposal. Should a hauler attempt to
deliver such waste, the hauler and the waste will be turned away.
The following is a list of some of the types of waste that may be accepted
at the Facility on a daily basis:
Bulky Wood Pallets
Construction Waste Demolition Waste
Wood Containers Cardboard
Forms & Spools Metals
Concrete Brick & Block Roofing
Bulky Waste (excluding land clearing Blacktop
debris & stumps)
Ceramics Glass
Resource Recover Facility
(non-processable screenings)
The following waste s will not be accepted at the Facility:
Municipal Solid Waste ("MSW") Ash
Sludge Hazardous Waste
Biomedical Waste Transformers
Liquid & Ser�li-Liquid Waste Batteries
Operation and Management Plan
Page 1 of 17
Smoldering or Hot Loads Asbestos
Compressed Gas Cylinders Explosive
Radioactive Waste Oily Waste
Suspect Waste Asbestos Containing Plastic or Metal Drums
Materials ("ACM") (unless confirmed to be
empty)
A-3 MATERIALS PROCESSING
Waste will arrive at the site via delivery from hauling vehicles, roll-off and
processed on a first come-first serve basis. The following is a summary of how a
typical load of waste will be handled and facility operation.
• Hauling vehicles will access the Facility via the paved
entrance off of John Fitch Boulevard (U.S. Route 5).
• Delivery vehicle will check in at the computerized scale,
register and weigh-in. Registration will include information
such as hauler's name, company, vehicle number, material
source, date, tonage, etc. Once registered, the scale
operator will visually inspect the load and any questionable
or unacceptable loads will not be accepted.
• In-bound and out-bound material will be measured by weight
or volume, depending on the material. Weight
measurements will be obtained using a scale. The scale will
be approximately 70 ft. long and 10 ft. wide with a maximum
capacity of 70 tons. The scale will be tested and certified on
a regular basis. All of the scale records can be reviewed in
the facility office upon request.
• The tare weight (weight of empty out-bound vehicle) will be
subtracted from the gross weight (weight of loaded in-bound
vehicle) to determine the net incoming weight for billing and
permitting purposes.
• After weigh-in, the delivery vehicle will transport load of
waste to the materials processing building. All waste
accepted at the facility will be deposited on to the tipping
floor inside of the materials processing building (see
Engineering Drawings for building floor plan and equipment
layout). No tipping operations will be conducted outside of
this enclosed and roofed building.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 2 of 17
• While on the tipping floor, the waste is again visually
inspected. If it is determined that the load contains
unacceptable material, the entire load will be classified as
unacceptable and returned to sender.
• Once tipping is complete, the delivery vehicles will proceed
to the out-bound scale for final weighing and bookkeeping.
• Materials on the tipping floor will be manually sorted to
remove the pieces of waste, which are too large for the
waste sorting equipment. Manual sorting will be done using
rubber tired loaders and excavators. These large pieces of
waste will be sorted accordingly and temporarily placed in
containers/bunkers inside of the building. Items such as
mattresses, doors, large pieces of metal or wood, cardboard
and glass should be removed through this presorting
process.
• The remaining waste will be placed into the Waste
Processing System. The majority of the debris will be
mechanically separated. The smaller particles (-2 inches in
size) will be mechanically separated. However, some of the
materials, such as smaller pieces of wood, plastic and metal,
will have to be manually separated at the picking stations.
Note: The tipping, sorting, processing and storage areas
inside of the materials processing building have been
designed to provide safe and efficient material
handling and movement of vehicles and equipment.
• Recyclable materials will be separated from the residual
through the Waste Processing System and manual
separation. Sorted materials will be temporarily stored in
bunkers and containers inside the building. These bunkers
and containers will be emptied as necessary and the
recycled material will be either loaded onto trucks and
shipped off-site, moved to the approved covered waste
storage building outside of the main building, or loaded into
awaiting rail cars (see Engineering Drawings for building and
rail loading locations). The non-recyclable materials/residual
will be reduced to (-6 inches in size) temporarily stored on
site and taken to an approved disposal or other transfer
facility. Any non-recyclable materials/residual stored outside
will be kept in covered containers.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 3 of 17
Approximately XXX tons of unprocessed waste storage will
be available for temporary (maximum of 48 hours) storage
on the tipping floor and within the covered containers, except
for Legal Holidays and weekends. This volume is within the
State of Connecticut's maximum unprocessed waste storage
requirement:
3 x (maximum design capacity of the facility for each waste)
3 x XXX tons/day = XXX tons/day
Covered building material storage and rail car storage
locations will be as delineated on the Engineering Drawings.
Stored material will be shipped to the identified end users
when containers are full.
• The type A woods (clean, unpainted and metal free) will be
manually fed into the grinder located in the materials
processing building (see Engineering Drawings). It is
anticipated that 100% of the type A wood will be chipped
and reused.
All recycled materials will be transported to end users via
truck or rail (depending on destination).
The proposed Facility will have manpower, equipment and
administrative support to efficiently process a maximum capacity of
XXX tons per day or XXX± tons per year.
The maximum daily quantity of waste to be received is expected
not to exceed XXX tons and the expected maximum daily quantity
of waste to leave the Facility is estimated to be XXX± tons.
The projected waste generation rate for the life of the facility is:
(XXX tons of residue/day) x (X days/week) x (52 weeks/year)
= XXX tons/year
(X,Xx tons/year) x 40 years (assumed) = XXX tons
A-4 FACILITY BUDGET
The operational budget will be based on the final Operation and
Management Plan and any comments from the DEP review of the application.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 4 of 17
A-5 CONTINGENCY PLAN
Prior to use of the facility, all customers will be informed that they are
responsible for compliance with all Federal and State laws regarding toxic and
hazardous waste disposal. In addition, selective waste acceptance policies will
be implemented to prevent the following wastes from entering the facility:
MSW Semi-Liquid Waste
Asbestos Ash
Compressed Gas Cylinders Sludge
ACM Liquid Waste
Plastic or Metal Drums Transformers
Hazardous Waste Suspect Waste
Biomedical Waste All waste identified on Page 2
is not acceptable
Due to the nature of the construction and demolition business, it is
necessary to have a contingency plan to prevent the acceptance of unwanted
wastes.
Facility employees will be trained to recognize unwanted waste and to
visually inspect debris throughout the sorting process. Upon arrival at the facility,
all loads of debris will be inspected prior to acceptance. If it is suspected that a
load contains any of the above listed unwanted wastes, facility employees will
take appropriate actions:
Solid Waste If it is possible to remove unwanted waste from a load
without creating a potential environmental or human
hazard, the waste will be isolated. The remainder of the
load will be accepted and the unwanted waste will either
be sent back to the source or to an appropriate by-pass
facility.
If the waste is of such a nature that it cannot be safely
removed and isolated, the entire load will be rejected and
the source of the waste will be immediately notified.
Liquid Waste All loads with liquid and semi- liquid waste will be rejected
and the source of the load will be immediately notified.
After each load of debris is accepted, checked in and weighed, they will
be dumped onto the tipping floor. Here, the debris will undergo a more thorough
visual inspection, Suspect waste will be separated from the remainder of the
debris on the t'i'pping=floor and sent back to the source. If necessary,
arrangements will be made to send the waste to an appropriate by-pass facility.
Either way, the source of the load will be immediately notified.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 5 of 17
Removal and disposal of unwanted wastes will be handled by ENCON
Environmental and Construction Company, Inc. located in Agawam,
Massachusetts, (413)786-0700.
The Oil and Chemical Spill Response Division of the CT DEP
424-3338 will be notified of a spill in accordance with the requirements regulating
spills. In addition, a record of the incident and response will be documented in
the facility's Daily Operations Log.
Minor mechanical emergencies with the Waste Processing System will be
dealt with immediately. The entire system will automatically shut down until the
problem is located and repaired. An inventory of routine spare parts will be kept
within the facility and other parts will be available from the manufacturer's local
distribution center. These parts should arrive at the facility within 24-hours of
ordering. In such cases, all authorized haulers will be notified of the temporary
shutdown and time of resumed operation.
Should the one scale fail the incoming and outgoing materials will be
measured by volume (yardage). Records of all manual readings will be kept and
entered into the system upon repair.
B. MANAGEMENT
B-1 ORGANIZATIONAL CHART
The following chart is a generic overview of the anticipated management
structure within the proposed facility. Prior to beginning operation, this chart will

anticipated that these situations will be rare and relatively short term.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 9 of 17
B-3 COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS
The facility will use mobile phones, stationary phones and two way radios
for communication.
The scale and scale house will be located short distances from the main
building and facility office. This will allow for easy communication in the event of
stationary phone failure.
Daily meetings will be held to allow for routine and scheduled
communication between management and staff. The following items will be
discussed at the meetings:
• safety issues and procedures

deliveries. Upon arrival at the scale, each driver will be responsible for providing
sufficient identification, name of the customer/hauling company, contents of the
vehicle, origin of the waste and other identification information. The total weight
of each truck will be recorded upon entering and the tare weight will be recorded
upon leaving the facility.
A record must be made of the weight, material type and destination of all
trucks leaving the facility with processed materials or residue.
All recorded information will be kept in an operations log within the scale
house. A historical record of all logs will be kept in the facility office in
accordance with regulations.
Customer records and records of facility maintenance (maintenance logs),
operating costs and other financial items will be kept in the facility office. These
records will be available to CT DEP review upon request.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 10 of 17
D. MAINTENANCE
D-1 DAILY CLEANUP PROCEDURES
Facility staff will perform daily housekeeping tasks to ensure a well
maintained work environment. At the end of each day, the interior and the
exterior of the facility will be cleared of any stray pieces of waste and debris.
Any waste left on the tipping floor will be left in an orderly manner and the
exposed tipping floor will be swept. Any large pieces of stray wastes or residue
will be placed in the appropriate containers adjacent to the tipping floor.
All of the tipping and processing will occur inside of the building, therefore
there will be minimal waste and debris outside of the building. However, staff will
walk the perimeter of the facility daily to pickup any wind-blown items.
D-2 MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS
Daily maintenance checks will be made on all equipment at the end of
each day to prevent any slow down in facility operations. Most minor repairs will
be made prior to beginning of next day of operations. The routine checks will
include a visual inspection of the equipment for wear and fatigue and a check of
the equipment's fluids and filters.
Facility staff will perform most of the routine maintenance on equipment
that is not covered by a manufacturer's warranty. Standard service contracts will
be obtained from outside maintenance contractors for major repairs and items
such as service to the electrical and mechanical systems, computers,
telephones, pest control, scale service, fire protection, etc.
In the event of a malfunction, the Waste Processing System is equipped
with an emergency shut off. If any component of the system should malfunction,
the entire system will shut down until the source of the malfunction is
determined. A reserve inventory of standard replacement parts will be kept at
the facility and major replacement parts will be obtained from the distributor's
local office. It should not take more than 24 hours for delivery of these parts.
Initially, the manufacturer will be contracted for routine maintenance and service
to the system. It is anticipated that through training, facility staff will eventually
be qualified to do routine maintenance and minor repairs.
Emergencies and breakdowns may result in unscheduled maintenance
and activity within the facility outside of the regular operating hours.
If the facility experiences a breakdown or malfunction that requires
shutdown, all of the authorized haulers will be notified of the temporary shutdown
and when regular operations will resume. The tipping floor within the facility has
an available emergency capacity of three times the daily permitted intake tonage.
This should provide sufficient emergency storage in the event of an unscheduled
Operation and Management Plan
Page 11 of 17
shutdown.
E. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS
E-1 The proposed facility was designed to meet all applicable local,
state and federal environmental regulations and guidelines.
Dust
It is not anticipated that dust will be a problem at this facility for the
following reasons:
• Most of the delivery vehicles will be covered prior to entering
the facility.
• Loaded vehicles will be covered prior to leaving the facility.
• Much of the dust generation at this type of facility occurs
during the tipping process. All of the tipping at the proposed
facility will occur inside of the material processing building.
Once the material has been tipped onto the tipping floor
inside of the building, misters will be used to control dust.
• The sorting and processing will occur inside of the building
• The sorting system includes built-in dust control measures at
a number of the system components. The following is a
summary of the dust control features within the system
(upon completion of the equipment selection we will provide
additional equipment information)
Vibrating Feeder: Unprocessed material will be loaded
from the tipping floor to the vibrating feeder. Misting will
be used to reduce the amount of dust prior and during
placement of the material on the feeder.
Belt Conveyors These components move the material
via a belt conveyor with little or no vibratory action.
Thus minimizing dust generation.
Sorting Enclosure: This station is a platform within an
enclosed area where ferrous and non-ferrous, plastics,
textiles, clean wood, concrete, rocks, bricks and other
materials can be removed and placed into containers
below the platform and placed into containers below the
platform. This area will be enclosed and insulated for
Operation and Management Plan
Page 12 of 17
noise reduction. Where necessary misting will be
provided for dust suppression.
Employees working within this area will wear appropriate
personal dust protective equipment.
Horizontal Grinder: . The grinder will be used for volume
reduction and wood chipping the feed point and
discharge area of the grinder is enclosed in steel chutes.
Material will be contained on the conveyers with
adjustable rubber sheeting. Misting will be utilized for
dust suppression.
Dust Filter: The dust filter is the component designed
to specifically control the dust collected throughout the
sorting process. The collected dust-material is
contained for disposal.
• The majority of the site outside the building is paved or
covered with railroad ballast. Therefore, dust generation
around the facility should not be an issue. However, should
dust become an issue, water (via misting and hoses) will be
used to keep the dust to a minimum.
Odors
Odor is not expected to be an issue for this facility since the waste
accepted at the facility does not include degradable organic waste.
Noise
Due to the nature of this industrial area, the trucks entering and exiting the
facility will not significantly increase the current noise levels.
A major noise generator for the facility could be the Waste Processing
System. However, this system will be enclosed inside of the building and outside
noise should be minimal. The building has been positioned so that the front of
the building is facing away from any residential activity, which is approximately
1,000 feet from the building. All employees working in the processing areas will
be supplied with appropriate hearing protection.
Pests
It is not likely that the proposed facility will encourage a pest population
since degradable organic wastes are not being processed. However, should a
problem arise, an exterminator will be contracted to correct the problem.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 13 of 17
F. MATERIAL TRANSPORT AND TRAFFIC
REVISE PER TRAFFIC REPORT Traffic Report is being completed
The waste haulers will access the site via John Fitch Boulevard (CT Route
5). Trucks will enter the facility, stop at the scale and go directly to the tipping
floor. The layout of the facility will provide space to separate trucks entering and
leaving the facility.
Approximately XX vehicles will be accessing the facility on a daily basis.
Due to the location of the facility and existing conditions, there could be a slight
increase with no long-term negative impacts. According to the State of
Connecticut Department of Transportation's traffic data, XXX± vehicles pass the
intersection of XXX and John Fitch Boulevard in a 24-hour period (XXX data).
Much of this traffic is generated by the large industries within the vicinity of the
project site.
In addition to trucks, materials and residue will leave the site via railroad.
An existing railroad is located to the west of the site adjacent to the John Fitch
Boulevard. A siding currently exists that connects the site to this main line.
G. EQUIPMENT
The proposed facility will utilize the XXX Waste Processing System. the
Engineering Drawings include an Equipment Layout drawing.
In addition to the XXX equipment, X loaders and X excavators will be used
at the facility.
H. EMERGENCIES AND SAFETY
H-1 FIRE & MEDICAL
The telephone numbers for the local fire department, police department,
ambulance and hospital will be posted near every telephone within the facility. In
case of a fire or a medical emergency, the Town of South Windsor has a "9-1-1
Emergency Response System".
Fire
The facility will be equipped with an on-site dry fire protection system.
This system is fully automated and the Town of South Windsor Fire Department
will be automatically notified if the system is activated. The fire protection
system will remain activated until manually de-activated in the sprinkler control
room.
All employees will receive training in emergency response to on-site fires
Operation and Management Plan
Page 14 of 17
in the event that a fire is discovered during operating hours and is such that it
does not activate the sprinkler system or the fire is outside of the building.
Facility personnel shall implement this training and use the following procedure
as an emergency response guideline:
EMERGENCY RESPONSE FOR FIRES
1. The individual discovering a fire shall immediately notify the supervisor or
facility operator. The employee should attempt to limit the spread of the
fire with hand-held fire extinguishers.
2. The supervisor or facility operator shall quickly examine the fire to
determine its size and source. The supervisor shall also make a
preliminary determination as to whether on-site resources can be used to
control and extinguish the fire. All non-essential personnel shall be
removed from the area.
3. If the fire is very small and can be extinguished without outside assistance,
it shall be put out as soon as possible. All fire-fighting personnel should be
extremely careful when approaching the fire and attempting to extinguish
it.
4. If assistance is required to extinguish the fire, then the supervisor shall
manually activate the sprinkler system and call (or direct another employee
to call) any necessary local emergency responders. At a minimum, this
notification will include the local fire and police departments by dialing
"9-1.111.
At the discretion of the supervisor or facility operator and depending upon
the size of the fire, on-site personnel may use hand-held fire extinguishers
to limit the spread of the fire until the fire department arrives.
a) Once the fire department arrives, the supervisor or facility operator
shall quickly brief officials on the situation status. The fire
department will extinguish the fire.
b) On-site personnel shall relinquish all fire-fighting activities.
c) The primary function of the police department would be to control
traffic and keep pedestrians away from the area.
5. After the fire is extinguished, the entire situation, including the potential
cause and the fire-fighting activities, shall be reviewed. Notes should be
placed in the facility operating record and if necessary, this plan shall be
revised to better control future situations.
Operation and Management Plan
Page 15 of 17
6. The Waste Management Bureau of the CTDEP should be contacted
during or within twenty-four hours of any fire occurring at this facility.
Medical
In the event of an on-site medical emergency, facility personnel shall:
MEDICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE
1. The individual discovering medical emergency shall immediately notify the
supervisor or facility operator.
2. The supervisor or facility operator shall quickly access the medical
emergency and determine if there is a need for emergency medical
response. If necessary, supervisor or facility operator shall call "9-1-1" or
direct an employee to do so.
3. If necessary, supervisor or facility operator has shall temporarily suspend
facility operations until medical emergency is resolved.
4. If the medical emergency is the result of an accident within the facility, the
entire situation, including the potential cause of the emergency, shall be
reviewed. Notes should be placed in the facility operating record and if
necessary, this plan shall be revised to better control future accidents.
5. The Waste Management Bureau of the CTDEP should be contacted
within twenty-four hours of a medical emergency resulting from an
accident within the facility.
H-2 EQUIPMENT FAILURE
In an effort to prevent equipment failures, facility personnel will be
required to perform daily inspections of all critical equipment. The Waste
Processing System is equipped with an emergency shut off. If any component of
the processing system should malfunction, the entire system will shut down until
the source of the malfunction is determined.
H-3 SAFETY
Management will conduct regular safety education programs to ensure
that all new employees are aware of the required safety measures, safety
procedures and emergency equipment/services. All facility staff will be refreshed

Conclusion: Moldy drywall is likely to be shipped to the proposed facility, because it is not
legally excluded from being handled in this manner. Furthermore, detection of mold may be
difficult because of location(often on the reverse side of drywall panel) and because of sampling
difficulties in testing for molds.
Furthermore,there is risk that mold will proliferate on discarded drywall (and other building
materials) while it is at the proposed facility. This may be the result of
1)materials coming in wet, or
2) materials becoming wet due to water sprays used to control dust within the facility
3)materials becoming wet due to rainy conditions during transport to outside storage bins by
payloader
4)materials becoming wet while in outside storage bins
5)materials becoming airborne while being transported by payloader and falling on the ground
and becoming wet by stormwater
6)materials being washed into the stormwater system '
7)materials becoming wet within the processing building during floor washing and going into
the trench drain.
Particular concern should be paid to stachybotrys molds and other molds which grow on damp
construction materials. An article found on the Canton City Health District website states:
"Are there reasons to be concerned about mold in buildings?
Yes, if excessive exposure might occur. Motds produce spores, very tiny particles
which become invisible airborne particulate, similar to asbestos or lead
particles. The spores sometimes contain chemicals, designed to kill other
competing life forms (remember, it's a Jungle out there). These substances,
known as mvcotoxins, adversely affect human health.
Exposures occur when the spores containine these chemicals are inhaled.
Interestingty, it doesn't matter if the spores are dead or alive, since breathing
the spores doesn't cause an infection like breathing tuberculosis bacteria or
common cold viruses would. The spores' health effects include suppressing the
immune system because of the chemical toxins they contain.
White not all molds produce such mvcotoxins, alt mold spores contain other
substances irritating to the human respiratory tract, and can elicit allergic
symptoms in sensitive individuals."

Joining asbestos, lead and PCBs, mold in buildings has captured the public's
attention as a potential health hazard requiring special care.
We're all familiar with the costly mechanical and structural damage caused by
the presence of water in buildings. In recent years however, building owners,
managers and tenants have discovered that water damage (condensation,
leakage or entry during new construction) also creates genuine or perceived
health hazards to occupants.
i
Recent attention to the issue of mold in buildings, particularly Stachybotrys, has
M ` Y fueled a new level of concern. In some cases this attention is justified. In other
cases, the concern goes beyond the actual risk, resulting in difficult and
sensitive risk communication issues.
Are there reasons to be concerned about mold in buildings?
Yes, if excessive exposure might occur. Molds produce spores, very tiny particles
which become invisible airborne particulate, similar to asbestos or lead
particles. The spores sometimes contain chemicals, designed to kill other
competing life forms (remember, its a jungle out there). These substances,
known as mycotoxins, adversely affect human health.
Exposures occur when the spores containing these chemicals are inhaled.
Interestingly, it doesn't matter if the spores are dead or alive, since breathing
the spores doesn't cause an infection like breathing tuberculosis bacteria or
common cold viruses would. The spores'health effects include suppressing the
immune system because of the chemical toxins they contain.
While not all molds produce such mycotoxins, all mold spores contain other
substances irritating to the human respiratory tract, and can elicit allergic
symptoms in sensitive individuals.
Spores from numerous species of outdoor molds are typically found inside
buildings at levels ranging from 10 percent to 50 percent of their levels in
outdoor air. The concern for mold in buildings is not related to these species or
to the outdoors as a source. Problems occur when uncommon species of molds
grow indoors on building materials, especially those containing cellulose.

I' A building was constructed with ventilation supply ducting in the concrete slab.
Unfortunately, the slab was chronically wet. As a result, warm supply air picked
up moisture which condensed on the colder exterior surfaces of the building,
including windows and interior wall cavities at the cold exterior wail. Extensive
mold growth was present in the walls.
In many of the above cases, removal of porous materials such as carpeting and
sheetrock, and cleaning of non-porous materials was required. These tasks,
along with removal of the water source and HEPA vacuuming of remaining dusts,
prevented potential mold spore exposures.

Photo byPrezantAssocciates extensive cleaning and
demolition over a
12-month period.
During construction of a large commercial building, numerous packaged fans
were rained on prior to the roof being installed. Insulation within these units
became wet and moldy. Construction was delayed and ultimately the units had
to have the intemat insulation removed and replaced.
Flooding. Floods in Western Washington in 1994 resulted in numerous buildings
being inundated with water. One flooded building, a one-story convalescent
home, was cleaned extensively and reoccupied after receiving 6 to 12 inches of
water. Water wicked up the sheetrock and mold grew within the wall cavities
until the sheetrock dried. While the mold was no longer alive, it left behind
extensive spores which were able to migrate through the watt and create
unacceptable exposures to building occupants.
A kitchen located above an office had plumbing which repeatedly leaked water
over a one- to two-year period. Mold growth within the office resulted in
extensive illness and evacuation of the building.
The masonry exterior of a school building was wet from a misplaced sprinkler
during the summer. The following fall, teachers noticed mold bleeding through
the sheetrock behind a cabinet. Water had been retained and slowly released for
many months by the wet masonry, providing ideal conditions for mold growth.
Remodeling. Disturbance of the exterior of a hospital building during exterior
and interior renovation created airborne Aspergillis spores. Because Aspergillis is
one of a select few molds which can cause incurable infections in humans,
extensive isolation and verification was required to insure that
immuno-compromised patients were not exposed.
Condensation. A building in a hot, humid climate was constructed without a
vapor barrier on the outside of the building. The air conditioning system was
creating a negative pressure indoors relative to outdoors, allowing hot, moist air
to migrate inward. The first vapor barrier reached was the vinyt-covered wall on
the occupied side of the sheetrock. Because the interior of the building was
cold, the humid air leaking inward cooled and released its water content on the
back side of the sheetrock. Peeling the vinyl wall covering off revealed extensive
growth of Stachybotrys and other molds throughout the sheetrock.

You may think of sheetrock as a gypsum-and-paper sandwich. I think of
sheetrock as a sponge with food pasted to both sides. The gypsum insures a
consistent long-term source of moisture for the non-outdoor molds growing on
the paper and deposited dust. This provides an ideal environment for molds to
reproduce.
As they proliferate, these non-outdoor molds release spores, creating immediate
and possibly future exposures for occupants. Mold growing indoors is
unacceptable; remediation requires identifying and removing the porous
substrate upon which they are growing, removing the source of moisture and
then cleaning up the residual spore-containing dust.
How many spores are too much? This determination requires a situation-specific
evaluation, considering many factors including whether or not related health
effects are being experienced by occupants. A consensus has emerged among
microbiologists, certified industrial hygienists and other qualified health
professionals that it is unacceptable to have ongoing mold growth in occupied
buildings.
Unlike other contaminants of indoor air, indoor sources of fungal growth can be
prevented and eliminated. Conducting site evaluations, sampling and
interpreting air monitoring data,and providing guidance on remediation is highly
complex and controversial, requiring specialized and experienced certified
industrial hygienists.
How mold gets into buildings
From water entry during construction. A tilt-up concrete addition on a concrete
slab was assembled without protection from the rain. Six months later,
employees began to feel sick and evacuated the building. Investigation revealed
extensive mold growth on the plywood underside of the roof, throughout the 2 x
4 studs used to support the interior sheetrock, and on the back side of the
sheetrock.

Abstract -
To elucidate problems with microfungal infestation in indoor environments,
a multidisciplinary collaborative pilot study, supported by a grant from the
Danish Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, was performed on 72 mold-
infected building materials from 23 buildings. Water leakage through roofs,
rising damp, and defective plumbing installations were the main reasons for
water damage with subsequent infestation of molds. From a score system
assessing the bioavailability of the building materials, products most
vulnerable to mold attacks were water damaged, aged organic materials
containing cellulose, such as wooden materials,jute, wallpaper, and
cardboard. The microf ingal genera most frequently encountered were
Penicillium (68%), Aspergillus (56%), Chaetomium (22%), Ulocladium,
(21%), Stachybotrys (19%) and Cladosporium (15%). Penicillium
chrysogenum, Aspergillus versicolor, and Stachybotrys chartarum were the
most frequently occurring species. Under field conditions, several
trichothecenes were detected in each of three commonly used building
materials, heavily contaminated with S. chartarum. Under experimental
conditions, four out of five isolates of S. chartarum produced satrat6xin H
and G when growing on new and old, very humid gypsum boards.A.

Re: Appl# 01-48P - Review of Materials Reduction Facility, 420 John Fitch Blvd. - Plans dated
2/8/02.
I have reviewed the site plans for the proposed Materials Reduction Facility with the following
additional comments:
1. The subsurface infiltration stormwater management system has been divided into two sections. The
southern most section collects runoff from the western portion of the parking lot and access road,
and drainage from the grassed area east of the office. How will you achieve an 80%removal of total
suspended solids (TSS), a DEP guideline, entering the system? A standard catchbasin with a 2'
sump and traphood is rated at being only 30% efficient in the removal of TSS. An additional, more
efficient system of removing suspended solids must be incorporated into the site plan for this
portion. The northern system has catchbasins with 2'sumps,traphoods, and a state-of-the-art
Vortecnics treatment chamber, the combination of which meets the requirement.
2. In order to improve wildlife food value on the site you should consider replacing or supplementing
proposed landscaping with plant species that provide berries, seeds, or nuts that can be utilized by
area wildlife, especially along perimeter areas on the site.
3. The site plan specifies a standard residential turf grass mix for seeding non-paved areas. You should
consider incorporating a more drought tolerant species into the mix to reduce maintenance during
dry periods, especially on the well drained soil present.

Dear Jeff:
Attached please find a revised copy of the Site Plans and drainage study for the above referenced
project prepared by J.R. Russo &Associates on behalf of the 420 John Fitch Boulevard LLC.
These items have been modified to address your comments presented in your letter to J.R. Russo
&Associates dated February 22, 2002. Your comments are restated below, followed by our
response.
1. The subsurface infiltration stormwater management system has been divided into two sections.
The southern most section collects runoff from the western portion of the parking lot and access
road, and drainage from the grassed area east of the office. How will you achieve 80% removal
of total suspended solids (TSS), a DEP guideline, entering the system? A standard catchbasin
with a 2' sump and traphood is rated at being only 30% efficient in the removal of TSS. An
additional, more efficient system of removing suspended solids must be incorporated into the
site plan for this portion. The northern system has catch basins with 2' sumps,traphoods, and
a state-of-the-art Vortechnics treatment chamber, the combination of which meets the
requirement. A second Vortechnics Stormwater Treatment System Model 3000 has been proposed
prior to discharge into the subsurface infiltration/retention system #1 to provide the additional pre-
treatment requested prior to infiltration.
2. In order to improve wildlife food value on the site you should consider replacing or
supplementing proposed landscaping with plant species that provide berries, seeds, or nuts that
can be utilized by area wildlife, especially along perimeter areas on the site. It should be noted
that the project results in the removal of only a few trees along the southern property line. There is
little to no existing vegetation of any value on the remainder of the site to be disturbed. We have
modified the landscaping plan by replacing red maples with Gray Stemmed Dogwood trees and the
azaleas with Nannyberry. These two species should also be more drought resistant.
3. The site plan specifies a standard residential turf grass mix for seeding non-paved areas. You
should consider incorporating a more drought tolerant species into the mix to reduce
maintenance during dry periods,especially on the well drained soil present. The grass seed

Date: March 4, 2002
Re: Appl# 01-48P - Review of the proposed Materials Recycling Facility, John Fitch
Blvd. Revised plans dated 02-25-02.
The revised plans propose to separate the subsurface stormwater system into two separate
areas. Both systems would have water quality treatment structures that include
catchbasins with sumps to capture initial sediment runoff,trap hoods to capture floatables
and oils, and a VortecnicsT"' fine particle separator to capture fine sediment and pollutants
attached to the sediments. This system, in my opinion, will meet the State guidelines of
80% removal of Total suspended Solids (TSS) from the stormwater stream and minimize
impacts to ground or surface water.
If the O&M procedures are followed,the proposed airborne particulate recovery system
should to minimize fine particulate migration out of the building.
I investigated the ponded wetland area east of the site adjacent to the Chapel Hill
Condominiums. This was a wetland that was mined as a part of the clay excavation
activities that occurred in the area. Nineteen seventy-four aerial photos show this area as
being completely excavated. Road runoff from Chapel Road as well as ground water
provides hydrology to the wetland. Beaver activities have ponded greater amounts of
water in this area. The open water portion of this wetland is approximately 400 to 500
feet from the subject site. It is unlikely that the activities proposed on the subject site
would negatively impact this wetland area.
Due to the intense historical and present use on the site wildlife values are poor due to a
lack of available vegetation that could be utilized by wildlife. The proposed plan shows
some of the interior landscape plantings to be berry producing shrubs. This will be only a
marginal net gain from existing conditions due to the small numbers of plants proposed
and lack of perimeter placement.
