Site Background and Operational History Sample Clauses

Site Background and Operational History. The Interchem site is a former pesticide formulating facility with a 12-year operating history from 1976 to 1988. Two pesticide formulation companies operated at the site:. (1) Silak (1976-1980), which .also operated under the names Interchem, Inc. (1980-1984), and WHB Specialty Products (1984-1987); and (2) XxXxxx Industries, Inc. (1987-1988). The Interchem site primarily consists of the Main Building, which housed an office; storage areas for raw materials and finished products; packaging and blending areas; a liquid processing area; and a hazardous waste storage area. The Toxaphene Pad, located adjacent to 1st Avenue, approximately 150 feet south of 10th Street, was formerly part of a warehouse foundation used for storage of formulation products. On the east side of 1st Avenue, west of the railroad tracks, there are seven above-ground storage tanks (tanks) formerly used to store diluents and liquids related to pesticide formulation. Two wooden sheds used to store pesticide formulation materials and containers were located north of the tanks. In May 1976, a theatre adjacent to the Interchem site caught on fire. The fire spread and destroyed an Interchem site warehouse located on the southwest corner of 10th Street and 1st Avenue in Xxxxx. The facility was closed for one month after the fire and then reopened. In February 1977, another fire occurred at the Interchem site, destroying the quonset located at the northeast corner of 00xx Xxxxxx and 1st Avenue. In June 1981, a chemical spill of dimethoate, an organophosphate pesticide, occurred at the Interchem site. The 2- to 3-gallon spill was a result of container crushing operations at the site. Lime was used to cover the spill and neutralize the dimethoate by base hydrolysis. The spill was reported to have caused a persistent and obnoxious odor in the vicinity of the site. Early in 1983, a spill of toxaphene occurred on a concrete pad south of the office area. Soil samples taken from the toxaphene spill area prior to cleanup contained up to 110,000 parts per million (ppm). The company conducted some initial cleanup efforts in April 1983, reducing toxaphene levels in the soil to 5,500 ppm. In November 1983, a second clean-up action reduced levels to 120 ppm in soil. In June 1984, EPA conducted a Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) compliance evaluation inspection at Interchem to determine compliance with RCRA interim status regulations. The inspection determined that nine 55-gallon drums of xylene an...

  • Maintenance and Operation Member-Generator agrees to maintain their system and facilities in accordance with applicable manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule and standard prudent engineering practices. Member-Generator covenants and agrees to operate their system, facilities and equipment so as to minimize the likelihood for a malfunction or other disturbance, damaging or otherwise affecting or impairing Cooperative’s electrical system. Member-Generator shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations, zoning, building codes, safety rules and other environmental regulations or restrictions applicable to the design, installation, operation and maintenance of the Member-Generator's System. Member-Generator must, at least once every year, conduct a test to confirm that Member-Generator’s System automatically ceases to energize the output (interconnection equipment output voltage goes to zero) within two (2) seconds of being disconnected from Cooperative’s electrical system. Disconnecting the Member-Generator’s System from Cooperative’s electrical system at the visible disconnect switch and measuring the time required for the unit to cease to energize the output shall satisfy this test. Member-Generator shall maintain a record of the results of these tests and, upon request by Cooperative, shall provide a copy of the test results to Cooperative. If Member-Generator is unable to provide a copy of the test results upon request, Cooperative shall notify Member- Generator by mail that Member-Generator has thirty (30) days from the date Member-Generator receives the request to provide Cooperative with the results of a test. If Member-Generator does not provide Cooperative with the test results within the thirty (30) day time period or if the test results provided to Cooperative show that Member-Generator’s net metering unit is not functioning correctly, Cooperative may immediately disconnect Member-Generator’s System from Cooperative’s electrical system. If Member-Generator’s equipment ever fails this test, Member-Generator shall immediately disconnect Member-Generator’s System from Cooperative's electrical system. Member-Generator’s System shall not be reconnected to Cooperative's electrical system by the Member-Generator until Member-Generator’s System is repaired and operating in a normal and safe manner. Cooperative shall have the right to have a representative present and informed when any such tests are conducted. Cooperative does not warrant the testing procedures or results by the presence of its representative. Member-Generator is responsible for protecting their equipment from transient high voltage spikes caused by lightning and/or transient low voltage conditions caused by faults or short circuits, and from any other causes or events. Therefore, Cooperative shall not be responsible for damage to Member-Generator’s equipment allegedly caused by transient high voltage spikes caused by lightning and/or transient low voltage conditions caused by faults or short circuits or other causes or events. Member-Generator agrees to notify Cooperative no less than thirty (30) days prior to modification of the components or design of the Member-Generator’s System that in any way may degrade or significantly alter the System’s output characteristics. Member-Generator acknowledges that any such modifications will require submission of a new Application and Agreement to Cooperative.
