36 CES/CEV ENVIRONMENTAL FLIGHT, DSN 366-2101

ANDERSEN AFB, GUAM

From the 36th Air Base Wing Vice Commander At Andersen Air Force Base, we are striving to protect the environment by setting a goal of achieving zero notices of environmental violations in every facet of our operation. Our commitment to environmental excellence is demonstrated every day and is recognized throughout the Air Force and the local community. The role of Unit Environmental Coordinator is a key element for collecting and disseminating information to ensure environmental compliance and sustain good environmental stewardship. In order to achieve the Air Force’s environmental vision of being a national leader in environmental management and natural resources protection, we must recognize the role and impact we have on the environment. I encourage everyone to take part in this very important undertaking. Together we can support our national defense mission while maintaining a cleaner, healthier environment for our people today and for future generations. THOMAS P. FINNEGAN, Colonel, USAF Vice Commander, 36 ABW

PREFACE This environmental coordinator’s handbook was developed to enhance the installation’s environmental awareness and compliance, through individual unit environmental coordinator’s program. This handbook primarily discusses hazardous material, hazardous waste, and solid waste management. Hopefully, this handbook will improve compliance and operations in the environmental arena. Your unit may already have environmental coordinators who are involved in compliance issues; if not, your unit should appoint one. Coordinators will serve as points of contact for environmental issues and can find answers to environmental questions both in this handbook and through the contacts listed. A functional area guide in the handbook will point out some areas that are regulated or monitored in the unit’s work areas. Some of the national environmental laws and terms that may impact your operations are also explained. Also included are management responsibilities and procedures concerning hazardous materials, with local procedures for hazardous waste turn-in. Please use this handbook as guidance. It may not offer every answer to questions encountered in environmental protection; however, it is intended to point you in the right direction. At the end of this document, a list of phone numbers is provided for key players on base who are involved in environmental issues. This handbook should be kept available for quick reference—refer to it often. Send any suggested changes to 36 Civil Engineer Squadron Environmental Flight (CEV).

UNIT ENVIRONMENTAL COORDINATOR’S HANDBOOK 1. OVERVIEW. The purpose of this handbook is to increase a unit’s environmental awareness and compliance through the unit environmental coordinator. It is designed to be a handy reference guide to help one perform duties as an environmental coordinator. Included are; points of contact, methods to inspect and organize a unit environmental program, and helpful information pertaining to environmental protection. This should be made readily available for quick reference. Refer to it often. Send any suggested changes to the 36th Civil Engineer Environmental Flight (CEV). 2. ORIENTATION. Under the guidance of Air Force Environmental Instructions in the AFI 32-70XX series, your unit is responsible for the adherence to environmental instructions. Each installation has numerous environmental organizations and committees responsible for the oversight of monitoring, reviewing, and controlling environmental management. As a UEC the following organizations are the experts you need to rely on when you have questions concerning compliance with environmental, safety, and health regulations. They are: a. Military Public Health (SGOAH) – Manages health surveillance programs, such as epidemiology/communicable disease control, medical entomology (disease vectors and pest control), food safety, and various occupational health programs. Example programs are hearing conservation and occupational health exams for people involved in the handling of hazardous materials.

b. Bioenvironmental Engineering (BEE) - Industrial hygienists monitor the environment. Conduct shop and facility surveys for hazardous materials/waste; obtain samples of materials for analysis, and manage the Hazard Communication Program (sampling, material safety data suppliers, respirator programs). Evaluate community and work environments and recommend controls to keep environmental and occupational stresses within limits for the maintenance and promotion of health and well-being. c. Environmental Flight (CEV) – Responsible for the management and oversight of base environmental programs. Ensures the base maintains compliance with all environmental laws. This branch is part of the Civil Engineer Squadron.

d. Staff Judge Advocate (JA) – Handles legal matters involving compliance with

federal and local regulations pertaining to the environment. e. Environmental Protection Committee (EPC) – Chaired by the Wing

Commander or when designated the Vice Commander. Staff offices designates, in writing, a primary and alternate member with decision-making authority to serve on the EPC. Staff offices include: Mission Support Group (MSG), Maintenance Group (MG), Medical Group (MDG), Operations Support Squadron (OSS).

1

The EPC must include representatives from tenant organizations, including the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office (DRMO), and the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES). The EPC chairperson designates other members to serve on the EPC as required. The EPC acts as the primary executive steering group for all environmental cleanup, compliance, conservation, and pollution prevention matters. The members meet at least quarterly or at the direction of the chairperson. Reviews and approves environmental impact analysis on proposed actions and forwards to the decision-maker. Reviews environmental policy, resources, and performance and makes recommendations on changes required. Ensures appropriate training and manpower exist to meet environmental responsibilities. 3. ASSIGNMENT. All units at this installation are required to comply with the Air Force Environmental Instructions (AFI 32-70XX Series), Health (AFI 48 Series) and Safety (AFI 91 Series).

a. The unit commander designates, in writing, an officer, noncommissioned officer, or civilian of equal rank as primary and alternate unit environmental coordinator assigned to the organization. Unit environmental coordinators should have at least 12 months retain ability at the time of appointment.

b. In a multifunctional unit, the area that poses the greatest environmental concerns should be assigned the duty of having the primary unit environmental coordinator. Other functional areas in the unit may appoint an alternate unit environmental coordinator for the unit. (See Atch A for functional areas of concern to your unit.)

c. Alternates can perform the same duties as the primary, but they must coordinate through the primary, who tracks all environmental activities for the unit. Tenant units on the installation shall appoint a unit environmental coordinator. The host-tenant support agreement requires environment compliance to the agreement. 4. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS MANAGEMENT – Team Andersen is committed to reducing the volume and types of hazardous materials managed and hazardous waste generated. Hazardous material reduction will control the cost and the potential liabilities of hazardous material and hazardous waste management, while reducing risks to both workers and the environment. As unit environmental coordinator, you must be aware of the requirements for Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and ensure proper procedures are followed. MSDSs are detailed information bulletins prepared by the manufacturer or importer of a chemical that describes the physical and chemical properties, physical and health hazards, routes of exposure, precautions for safe handling and use, emergency and first-aid procedures, and control measures selection of safe products and helps prepare supervisors and workers to respond effectively to daily exposure and emergency situations.

2

a. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), a complete and accurate MSDS for each hazardous chemical used must be readily available. Also, employees are entitled to obtain this information automatically upon the purchase of the material. An MSDS must accompany or precede the shipment of hazardous material; if not, you must obtain one immediately. Similarly, if the MSDS is incomplete or unclear, you should contact the manufacturer or importer to get clarification or obtain missing information. When you are unable to obtain an MSDS from a supplier or manufacturer, contact Bioenvironmental Engineering (BEE) for further information on the process. b. OSHA specifies the information to be included on a MSDS, not the format, which will appear in the following sections:

- Chemical Identity - Hazardous Ingredients - Physical and Chemical Characteristics - Fire and Explosion Hazard Data - Reactivity Data - Health Hazards - Precautions for Safe Handling and Use - Control Measures

c. If UNABLE to DETERMINE the IDENTITY of a MATERIAL, DO NOT

DISPOSE of this material. Look for a MSDS. If there is no sheet to identify it, the base Bioenvironmental Engineer can provide assistance in determining the material’s chemical identity and ascertain whether or not it is hazardous. d. HAZMAT PHARMACY PROGRAM (HPP) – The purpose of the HPP is to provide a standard way to manage HAZMAT procurement and use and comply with environmental Safety and Occupational Health (ESOH) requirements. Although the primary focus is on HAZMATs, the broader objective is to protect the environment, safety and health of workers, Team Andersen and local community. e. HAZMART – The facility where LG personnel stock, store, issue, and distribute HAZMAT using the standard base supply system. Tracking of HAZMAT is accomplished using the Air Force-Environmental Management Information System (AF-EMIS), with terminals in the HAZMART and supporting offices. f. HAZMAT Authorization Process – This process, electronically documented on AF Form 3952, Chemical/Hazardous Material Request/Authorization, establishes a standardized procedure for requesting and authorizing HAZMAT through all sources of supply (SOS).

3

(1) Work area supervisors use AF Form 3952 to initiate a request for HAZMAT. This detailed request provides information required to support the Hazardous Material Management Process (HMMP). (2) The SG, SE, and CE offices must review Part I of each AF Form 3952 and complete Part II. (3) The HAZMART, or other appropriate SOS, may issue the requested HAZMAT only after SG, SE and CE authorization. (4) Authorized request are entered into AF-EMIS which creates an Authorized User List (AUL). Procurement and issue actions shall not occur for HAZMAT unless the authorization appears on the AUL. (5) Requestors shall maintain copies of their completed AF Forms 3952 and the HAZMART shall maintain a file of all completed AF Forms 3952. (6) Additional information regarding the HAZMAT authorization process may be obtained from the Civil Engineer AF-EMIS web page: https://intranet.andersen.af.mil/36cesroot/EMIS/ce_emis.htm g. Shelf-Life Management – All HAZMAT users shall establish and maintain a shelf-life management program. User activities shall be responsible and accountable for shelf-life inspection on material that has been issued to them.

SHELF-LIFE MATERIEL

From 1996 DLA Customer Handbook General: Shelf-Life items are managed and controlled in accordance with the policies contained in DoD 4140.27-M, Shelf-Life Management Manual. Shelf-Life is the total period of time beginning with the date of the manufacture/cure/assembly/pack that an item may remain in the combined wholesale (including manufacturer) and retail storage system and still remain suitable for issue/use by the end user. Shelf-Life is not to be confused with service-life, which is a general term used to quantify the average or mean life of an item while in use. A shelf-life item is an item of supply having deteriorative or unstable characteristics to the degree that a storage time period must be assigned to ensure that it will perform satisfactorily while in service. There are two types of shelf-life items. A Type I Shelf-Life Item is an individual item of supply that is determined through an evaluation of technical test data and/or actual experience to be an item with a definite nonextendible period of shelf-life. A Type II Shelf-Life Item is an individual item of supply that may be extended after completion of inspection, test, restorative action. Shelf-Life codes and shelf-life time periods are identified in Appendix A of DoD 4140.278-M and are listed below:

Shelf-Life Markings: Items assigned a shelf-life code of zero (nondeteriorative) do not require shelf-life markings. The following contractual shelf-life markings shall be shown below the item identification data on unit, intermediate and exterior packs or unpacked items:

• For Type I shelf-life items: date manufactured, date cured, date assembled, date packed (apply one as appropriate), and expiration date.

• For Type II shelf-life items: date manufactured, date cured, date assembled, date packed (apply one as appropriate), and inspection/test date.

• For both Type I and Type II markings the above dates shall be expressed by a numeric month and last 2 digits of the calendar year, i.e., 6/95, with the day of the month being the last day. For cure dated items, the cure date and expiration or inspection/test dates shall be expressed by the calendar quarter and last 2 digits of the calendar year, i.e., 2Q95 with the day of the quarter being the last day.

• When two or more unit packs of identical items bear different dates of manufacture, cure dates, or dates of pack, the earliest date shall be shown on the shipping container.

5

• For components, assemblies, sets, kits and outfits (CASKOS) that contain shelf-life items with the same or different expiration dates or inspection/test dates, the following shall be applied:

• The CASKO shall be marked with a shelf-life code reflecting the shortest shelf-life period of all the shelf-life items contained in the CASKO, and the earliest expiration or inspection/test date as applicable.

• A packing list or other control shall be maintained which will list the shelf-life items, their shelf-life periods or codes, and their expiration or inspection/test dates.

• The expiration date is only required for Type I shelf-life items such as drugs and biologicals. The date of manufacture need not be shown for medical items having expiration dates.

Cure Date and Use by Date Items: Certain rubber products have an expected shelf-life greater than 60 months, but are not included in the shelf-life program. These items have a shelf-life code of 0 (nondeteriorative) and are marked with a cure date and use by date. Although they are not included in the shelf-life program, these rubber items should not be issued, stored, returned for credit, or used if the use by date has passed. Cure date and use by date are applicable only to elastomeric components and are assigned to assist users in determining the age of the materiel. The use by date is typically expressed in terms of the month and year with the day of the month being the last day. Use by dates shall not be applicable to CASKOS. Effective Feb 1995 use by date items will become shelf-life coded items. The above instructions apply until all items become purged from the supply system. You may refer to the following references for additional guidance: AFMAN 23-110, Vol II, Part Two, Chap 14, para 14-33 - Shelf Life Control

Compressed Gas Management – Users shall be responsible and accountable for proper storage, inspection, and management of compressed gas cylinders.

6

Verify the following is met for compressed gas storage.

• Markings on the container are legible and none removed or defaced. • No part of the cylinder has been modified, tampered with, obstructed,

removed, or repaired by the user. • Color of the container is not the only means of identifying the contents of the

container. • Containers are not: placed anywhere they might become part of an electrical

current, grounded or used for grounding, exposed to temperature extremes, rolled in the horizontal position or dragged.

• NO SMOKING signs are posted. • There is adequate spacing or segregation by partition so that containers are

grouped together by the hazard class of the gas. • It is designed so that temperatures will not exceed 125 degrees Fahrenheit. • Cylinders are secured to prevent falling. • Acetylene containers are stored valve end up (the containers may be stored as

much as 45 degrees from vertical). • Portable fire extinguishers are available that are either of the CO2 type or dry

chemical type. • The area is well ventilated. • Heat is by indirect means such as steam or hot water.

Verify that when flammable compressed gases are stored in a separate room without other occupancy.

• The walls, partitions, and ceiling are continuous from floor to ceiling and securely anchored.

• At least one wall is an exterior wall. • Windows in partitions are wired glass in metal frames with a fixed sash. • Openings to other parts of the buildings are protected by a self-closing fire

door with a resistance of at least 1 hour.

Verify that flammable compressed gas cylinders stored inside a building with other occupancy are kept at least 20 feet from flammable liquids, highly combustible materials and oxidizers. You may refer to the following references for additional guidance. 29 CFR 1910.101 DOD 4145.19-r-1, 5-504 5. HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT. As the unit environmental coordinator, your biggest concern will usually center on the proper disposal of hazardous materials to

7

comply with Air Force and Environmental Protection Agency regulations. Many new regulations govern the process of discarding hazardous materials. Contact the installation’s hazardous waste program manager in CEV for the proper procedures. Then implement a structure within your workstation to prevent any incidents.

a. Unit Hazardous Waste Management Duties: (1) Act as a central point of inquiry and liaison between the installation’s Hazardous Waste Program Manager and the unit. (2) Develop and maintain an understanding of the unit’s operations that generate hazardous waste and waste oil, and ensure policies and procedures governing waste management are followed by activities and personnel within the unit. (3) Designate Initial Accumulation Point (IAP) Managers at facilities where hazardous waste and used petroleum oils are generated. (4) Provide the installation’s hazardous waste program manager with input and insight to operational difficulties encountered during waste management activities. b. Duties and Responsibilities Associated with Identifying Regulated Wastes: (1) Ensure unit personnel are aware which waste streams are to be managed as hazardous waste, and designate Initial Accumulation Point Managers.

(2) Receive and respond to requests from unit personnel for information concerning potential hazardous wastes (3) Inform the installation’s hazardous waste program manager about changes in their unit’s mission that may result in new waste streams or changes to the current waste streams. (4) Ensure the policies and procedures governing the labeling, inspection, and storage of the wastes generated by the unit’s activities are implemented. (5) Conduct and document required inspections of the unit’s waste storage areas and notify the commander of discrepancies. (6) Ensure generators complete turn-in requests for waste disposal in a timely manner, to prevent the unwarranted accumulation of large quantities of wastes. (7) Provide generators assistance in accurately and correctly completing documentation requesting waste disposal.

8

(8) Continually search for ways to reduce waste, through reduction in amount used; alternate methods or alternate materials that are not considered hazardous. (Contact the installation hazardous waste program manager for approval and assistance in organizing your unit’s program.) 6. HAZARDOUS WASTE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES. When hazardous wastes are generated, federal regulations govern their proper disposal. A unit could have one of two types of accumulation sites or none at all; knowing the difference is important. They are as follows: a. Initial Accumulation Point – can store up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste or up to 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste. Then when the 55-gallon container or 1 quart is 90% full, it must be turned in within three days to an accumulation site. The date to put on the container is the date the accumulation site received it. b. Accumulation Site – the containers will have to be transported if they are over 55 gallons in capacity or stored for 90 days, whichever comes first. Usually, DRMO or an EPA permitted storage area receives the shipments. Team Andersen has only 1 90-day accumulation site.

c. A hazardous material evaluation determines whether an IAP is needed for your unit. Each unit does not necessarily meet the requirements for having an IAP of any type. Typically, small amounts of hazardous materials can be included in a regular turn-in to DRMO.

d. Turn-in Procedures: See Hazardous Waste Management Plan, Section 5-3. e. Special disposal procedures: Spent fluorescent light bulbs, as well as certain

sodium and mercury vapor lamps are managed as hazardous waste. They are to be brought to the bulb crushing facility in their original packaging or in boxes and will not be taped together. The customer will be briefed on the use of the bulb crushing machines and will dispose of the bulbs themselves. Contact the installation’s hazardous waste manager for disposal appointments at 366-5078. 7. HAZARD COMMUNICATION PROGRAM. This program is intended to reduce the incidence of chemically induced occupational illnesses and injuries by informing employees of the hazards associated with the proper preventive measures to be taken when using hazardous materials in the workplace. a. Military Public Health will train supervisors using the Federal Hazard Communication Training Program.

9

b. Introduction of a new chemical into the workplace requires notification to the Bioenvironmental Engineering office. If the material is hazardous the BEE office will revise their current hazardous material inventory for the workplace and provide a MSDS, as well as guidance concerning use and disposal. 8. HAZARDOUS MATERIAL SPILLS – Upon discovery of spillage or accidental discharge of materials classified as hazardous, the following actions are to be taken. These steps are recommended courses of action, and are designed to provide guidance to shop personnel who are not trained as Spill Responders; the order of actions will depend on the severity of the conditions.

a. Those who handle hazardous materials are required to receive spill training. As the Unit Environmental Coordinator, see to it those individuals receive this training, provided by the Environmental Flight. The ability to quickly identify and perform the proper procedures to minimize the hazards associated with a spill is important. The Environmental Flight will assist in developing a shop-specific spill plan. Here are some procedures and guidelines to assist in the event of a spill:

REPORT -- CONTAIN -- REMOVE

REPORT Ensure personnel are briefed on the importance of reporting any leaks or spills. All oil, fuel, solvents, and chemical spills must be immediately reported to the Fire Department. The only exception is a minor spill on a hard surface, which is immediately cleaned. In this case, a follow up call should be made to the Environmental Flight at extension 366-2101. Failure to report a spill is a criminal offense.

CONTAIN Take immediate action to contain the spill. Without undue risk of personal injury, check the cause and stop the source of spill when possible. All personnel should know the location of the spill response equipment. The absorbent materials and equipment should be used to contain the spill and prevent runoff into the ground as well as storm and sanitary sewage drains. Prevent it from entering floor drains, storm drains, drainage ditches, or from leaving a hard concrete/asphalt surface. If spilled material reaches any of the aforementioned areas or soil, call the Environmental Flight at 366-2101.

REMOVE CEV will coordinate all base support requirements and clean-up actions, but spilling agency is responsible for providing all necessary manpower and cleanup materials.

10

b. Other Actions: If unsure about the identity of spilled material or proper spill response actions, or if the situation indicates a possibility of personal injury, evacuate the area and wait for arrival of Fire Department.

c. Restrict all sources of ignition. d. Make the spill scene OFF LIMITS to unauthorized personnel. Preferably,

individuals trained to identify a hazardous material spill should cordon off the area, preventing others who are unprotected and untrained to enter the area.

e. The Unit Environmental Coordinator and witness to the spill have to be available to the On-Scene Commander until the Spill Control and Recovery Team is fully operational. Important information can be gathered during the first few minutes after reporting the spill. 9. SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT – Solid waste includes all materials which are not defined by regulation to be either hazardous or toxic and which are normally disposed of by land filling, incineration, recycling or recovery. All solid wastes (including materials separated for recycling) must be stored in a manner such that they do not constitute a fire, health, or safety hazard or provide food or harborage for vectors, and must be contained or bundled so as not to result in spillage. Reduction in the amount of solid waste produced, prevention of pollution and conservation of resources are definitely in the interests of the Air Force. Also, preventing the disposal of regulated substances through this channel is of interest to your unit. A local contractor provides solid waste collection and transport to the landfill on a scheduled basis. The contractor manages refuse and recycling pickup for the entire base, and also operates the Arc Light Recycle Center.

a. Recycling is one way to minimize solid waste. Reducing solid waste generated will conserve our natural resources and maximize landfill space.

b. Recycling bins are located throughout the base to provide daily storage of

recyclables.

(1) A unit recycling monitor should be assigned to coordinate with the base recycling program manager.

(2) The auto skills center accepts motor oils and antifreeze.

c. Attention to the materials entering your unit trash cans and dumpsters is a high priority item. Regulated hazardous substances are prohibited from being placed in the trash or dumpsters. Discovery of these substances in landfills will result in fines and/or additional charges to the installation, not to mention negative attention.

11

Team Andersen currently recycles:

• Mixed Paper • Cardboard • Aluminum Cans • Glass

These items must be collected from facilities and deposited into recycling dumpsters. Paper, aluminum cans, and glass should be bagged and cardboard can be placed directly into the dumpsters. In addition, Team Andersen also has programs to recycle:

• Toner Cartridges • Household Chemicals

Toner Cartridges should be boxed in their original container and taken to the 36th Civil Engineer Squadron Environmental Flight (Bldg 18001, upstairs). Housing occupants may take their household chemicals, such as cleaners, to the Self-Help store, Bldg 22007, where they can be distributed to other DOD ID-card holders. For more information about recycling, please refer to the Team Andersen Recycling web-page at https://intranet.andersen.af.mil/36cesroot/CEV/Recycling%20Webpage/Recycling%20Home.htm or contact the Environmental Flight at extension 366-2101. 10. PESTICIDES – If your unit used pesticides, they also fall under federal regulation and certain procedures must be followed. a. Your unit should not apply any type of pesticide without written permission from base pest management. The requirements at the installation will determine the number of certified applicators present. Identify specific pest management activities and find out through base pest management if certification is required even for contracted work.

b. All pesticide/herbicide usage is a form of daily record (DD Form 1532-1), which is kept at the pest management function.

a. If some of your personnel are involved in pesticide/herbicide use, they need to receive an occupational health exam. Base medical services determine whether the person is physically qualified to perform the work.

b. Separate pest management chemicals from other operations and feeding areas. Also, separate areas for mixing, equipment storage, decontamination, personnel amenities, and spill contamination.

12

c. The disposal of outdated or deteriorated pesticides must parallel that of hazardous waste instructions on the label. 11. AIR EMISSIONS – Air polluting equipment may fall under your unit’s operations. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines atmospheric particulates as any dispersed matter, liquid or solid, other than uncombined water, in which the individual aggregates are larger than small molecules. The quantities in the atmosphere are commonly measured in terms of dust fall (rate of deposition) or suspended particulates (concentration). Dust fall rates of 10 to 100 tons per square mile per month are common in urban areas of the United States; everyone must participate in the quest for cleaner air. The effects of air pollution have been shown on atmospheric visibility, climate, health, materials and vegetation. a. Major sources of air pollution are caused by fuel burning, incinerators, aerospace ground equipment (AGE), volatile organic compounds (VOC), and emissions from automobiles and aircraft. Limiting operation times is one simple way of pollutant reduction. These sources produce pollutants to include sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbons, and vapors from petroleum products or chemicals.

b. Inspect records and facilities for air emission permits and emission inventories. Everything should be up to date and within compliance. Contact CEV concerning air emission questions. 12. POLLUTION PREVENTION (P2) – P2 is a cost-effective way of meeting environmental objectives in an era when installations are simultaneously subject to both stricter environmental standards and declining budgets. The Air Force takes a leadership role in preventing pollution by reducing the use of hazardous materials and the release of pollutants into the environment. The hierarchy of actions to prevent pollution are: first and foremost, reduce/eliminate dependence on hazardous materials and reduce waste streams (source reduction), reuse generated waste and recycle waste not reusable (recycling), employ treatment (if permitted), and only as a last resort disposal of wastes (end-of-pipe treatment). Management strategies should be in place for the following program elements:

- Ozone depleting chemicals - EPA 17 industrial toxics - Hazardous wastes - Municipal solid waste - Affirmative procurement of environmentally friendly products - Energy conservation - Air and water pollutant reduction

13. OPPORTUNITY ASSESSMENTS - Opportunity assessments will assess all pollutant sources and determine opportunities to reduce or minimize waste streams

13

throughout the process. These assessments will include all pollutant sources and examine the total waste generation by type and volume of content, and determine the most economical and practical option for reduction. Consideration must be given to cost/benefit analysis to evaluate opportunities for possible solutions. Contact the Base P2 program manager for more detailed information. Attachment F contains a sample justification format for P2 projects. 14. NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (NEPA) COMPLIANCE. NEPA is an "umbrella" law that requires all Federal agencies give consideration to all potential environmental impacts of proposed actions as part of planning and decision-making. All Federal actions must be evaluated. Actions are defined as new or continuing activities, funded projects or programs, new or revised agency rules/regulations/plans, legislative proposals, etc. The Air Force uses the Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP) to comply with NEPA. To ensure compliance with NEPA, ensure your unit: a. Consults with the Environmental Planning Function (EPF) (366-4695) when an action is proposed to determine if environmental documentation is required b. If required, complete the Description of Proposed Action and Alternatives (DOPAA) section of AF Form 813 for proposed actions and submit to the EPF for evaluation c. Start early. The NEPA process can be time consuming (up to two years) depending on the environmental impacts of the proposed action. Early NEPA analysis prevents costly and time-consuming delays. 15. NATURAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCE PROTECTION. It is the installation's goal to conserve, perpetuate, and enhance the natural ecosystems and cultural resources present on its lands within the context of the overall mission. a. Natural Resources. Ecosystems are best maintained by protecting the biological diversity of native flora and fauna. Habitat management is the key to effective conservation of biological diversity and the protection of endangered or threatened species. AAFB is home to the most preserved and pristine native limestone forest on the island. In addition, seven endangered or threatened species are found on the installation. The natural environment has been degraded, largely in part, by the Brown Tree Snake (BTS), which was accidentally introduced to Guam after WWII. Feral ungulates (wild hoofed animals, such as deer and pig) have also wreaked havoc on native plant life. Ensure your unit is a good steward of the natural environment by observing the following management actions: (1) Ensure permits or approval are obtained for work activities which could potentially impact the environment. These include, but are not limited to:

• Cutting vegetation or removal of plant parts • Disposal of water, including cleaning water or other wastewater • Disposal of hazardous substances

14

• Open burning • Placing materials (including soil) into a water body • Modifications to drinking water, wastewater, incinerators, or air

quality control equipment • Installing or modifying incinerators • Use of pesticides, herbicides, or dust suppression chemicals • Demolition of buildings

(2) Obtain passes or permits through the Chief Conservation Officer (366-3835) for:

• Hunting • Fishing • Crabbing • Hiking • Vegetation removal

(3) Do not feed or harass wildlife (4) Do not take live or dead coral from the coastline (violation of Guam law) (5) Ensure the BTS is not transported to other locations by:

• Reporting snakes, particularly those in or around cargo, to the USDA (366-2915)

• Inspecting outbound household goods, such as lawnmowers, grills, and swingsets

b. Cultural Resources. Buildings, structures, sites, and objects of historic, archaeological, or cultural value must be protected. AAFB has a rich past, both historic and prehistoric. There are many archaeological sites on the installation, particularly in the Tarague basin. The basin contains several prehistoric dwelling sites used by the Chamorro people hundreds of years ago. In addition, Andersen's military heritage is rich, the base having played major strategic roles in WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, and Gulf War. Ensure your unit is a good steward of cultural resources by observing the following management actions: (1) Encourage the use of the Heritage Center (located in the passenger terminal) and interpretive trails in the Tarague basin area to promote public awareness and appreciation of AAFB's history (2) If an archaeological site or other cultural artifact is discovered during any field activity, construction, or maintenance project, take immediate action to ensure the site is not disturbed and contact the Cultural Resources Program Manager (366-4695) (3) Coordinate field training activities with the Environmental Flight to increase awareness of existing and potential cultural resources

16. SPECIAL PROGRAMS - The Air Force engages in projects concerning threats to our personnel and environment. The following examples of current programs are not all inclusive, yet these may impact your work environment. a. Asbestos Abatement. Asbestos in its bonded condition does not pose a health risk, but asbestos that is capable of being crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to a powder by hand pressure may pose a health risk and is described as “friable”. Once released from their bonded condition, asbestos fibers can then become airborne and, if inhaled, damage to lungs. The final result this damage may be lung cancer or asbestosis. The effects of asbestos exposure are long-term, taking from 15 to 40 years to develop. Workers wear protective equipment and either encapsulate, enclose or remove asbestos containing material to eliminate the possibility of harmful exposure. The unit environmental coordinator will observe the following actions during asbestos abatement: (1) Ensure the working area is appropriately marked and sealed off to prevent unauthorized personnel, including themselves, from entering the area. (2) Ensure the workers’ emergency exits have no obstructions placed in the way by unit personnel. (3) Ensure communication with project supervisor for any additional requests to keep the environment safe around the asbestos abatement area. b. Asbestos applications are many; contact the Environmental Flight or Bioenvironmental Engineering (BEE) with questions concerning the presence of asbestos in your work area. c. Installation Restoration Project (IRP). DoD’s program to identify, investigate, and clean up past disposal sites. Your unit may have some in their area of operations or it may have contributed to a certain disposal site. The Environmental Flight has a list of IRP sites; contact them if you have any questions concerning prior dumping sites or if you discover any information concerning practices of your unit in the past. See Attachment F for IRP sites. 17. FIRE PROTECTION. As unit environmental coordinator, you should inform the building manager, who coordinates with the fire department, concerning locations and quantities of hazardous materials used and stored. a. During scheduled fire prevention inspections, the fire inspector should be informed about the hazardous materials to increase safety if a fire-fighting situation arose.

16

b. Dust explosion hazards can exist with a majority of fine, dry, airborne materials (i.e., flour, sawdust). These free-floating particulates can explode upon contact with an ignition source. Identify ignition sources and isolate them from these airborne articulates. c. Any time new types of hazardous materials are added to your facility/operations, notify the base fire department of type, quantity, and physical location. If hazardous materials are removed permanently from a facility/operation, notify the base fire department of type and quantity. Note: Refers to substantial quantities of materials. 18. ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (ESOH CAMP). Assessments of environmental management are conducted to help the installation meet environmental compliance standards, to build financial programs and budgets for funding environmental requirements, to forecast future compliance requirements, to identify and eliminate environmental problems and to evaluate the effectiveness of internal environmental management programs. a. Assessments are conducted annually that validate compliance in the various protocols of the program. External assessments are conducted every three years by experts in their field, which are not assigned to the installation. Internal assessments are conducted in the years between external assessments by installation personnel, most of which are environmental coordinators.

b. The environmental coordinator provides the unit with directions in preparing for the assessment by reviewing the required documents and procedures and ensuring that equipment and facilities are properly prepared for the assessment. c. Assessments are practice for regulatory inspections by EPA and others. Getting the assessment right means getting an inspection right and that means there are no distractions or fines impacting the installation’s mission. If you have questions concerning the status of your unit, contact the Environmental Flight (CEV). 19. TRAINING AND OCCUPATIONAL EXAMS. Proper training and physicals are required to ensure environmental protection with various work activities. a. An AF Form 55, Employee Safety and Health Record, will be kept by supervisors, on Air Force personnel. Individuals who handle or are exposed to hazardous materials should annotate additional training received and equipment used on the form. This also can serve as a guide to people who enter the same or similar duty position.

b. Military Public Health schedules the physicals to be performed by physical exams section in the medial center. Health exam records are maintained by the outpatient

17

records section of the hospital. Shop folders are maintained at Military Public Health for each shop on base where the workers are required to take physical exams. c. The unit environmental coordinator will ensure the unit maintains binders containing all appropriate regulations, chemical inventories, material safety data sheets (MSDSs), training requirements, physical exams, and other records pertinent and occupational exams vary greatly depending upon the work performed. The goal is to prevent unfortunate incidents through proper training, information, and physical examinations. Points of contact have been provided in this pamphlet to find the correct answers to your questions. The Environmental Flight (CEV) will assist you in correctly organizing your unit environmental program.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND TERMS

Environmental regulations impact virtually every operation throughout your installation. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) has an all encompassing effect, requiring all federal agencies to give appropriate consideration to environmental affects of proposed actions in their planning and decision-making, and to prepare detailed statements regarding such considerations and the resulting recommendations for major federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. NEGLECT can result in FINES and CRIMINAL LIABILITY! The following list of important environmental legislation passed by Congress promulgates federal regulations and additional Air Force directives. CAA (Clean Air Act, 1970, as amended through 1977) - requires prevention or control and abatement of air pollution from stationary and mobile sources; also includes asbestos removal and disposal regulations. FIFRA (Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, 1972) - requires the licensing or registration of pesticide products; requires proper management of pesticide use, storage, and disposal. SDWA (Safe Drinking Water Act, 1974) - regulates drinking water quality for pollutants that may have an adverse effect on human health or negatively affect the aesthetic quality of drinking water. CWA (Clean Water Act, 1972, as amended through 1987) - regulates discharge of wastewaters from any point source including industrial facilities and sewage treatment plants; requires reporting and cleanup of oil and hazardous substance spills in waterways; also protects waterways. RCRA (Resource Conservation Recovery Act, 1976, as amended through 1984) - establishes guidelines and standards for hazardous waste generation, transportation, treatment, storage and disposal. TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act, 1976) - regulates polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), asbestos, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and other substances; requires testing of chemical substances entering the environment, regulating releases where necessary. CERCLA (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 1980) - also known as “Superfund”, regulates releases of hazardous substances into the environment.

25

SARA (Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, 1986) - regulates cleanup of hazardous waste sites. NCA (Noise Control Act, 1972): establishes a national policy to promote an environment free from noise that jeopardizes health and welfare, and regulates noise emissions from commercial products such as transportation and construction equipment.

A-106 – Pollution Abatement Plan – this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) circular implements the requirement in Executive Order 12088, “Federal Compliance with Pollution Standards”, for assuring federal agencies, facilities, programs, and activities meet federal, state, and local environmental requirements, or correct situations that are not in compliance with such regulations. NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) – regulates wastewater discharges. EIAP (Environmental Impact Analysis Process) – is the Air Force Program that implements the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). At the installation, the EIAP is used when making decisions on all proposed actions ranging from simple maintenance to long-term construction projects. ESOH CAMP (Environmental, Safety, Occupational Health Compliance Assessment and Management Program) – the Air Force’s program for achieving, maintaining, and monitoring environmental compliance. GENERATOR – any person by site, whose act or process produces hazardous waste identified or listed in 40 CFR 261, or whose act first causes a hazardous waste to become subject to regulation. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) – introduced federal control by holding the employer accountable for safe working environments and making information on working conditions available to employees. AFOSH (Air Force Occupational Safety and Health) – the Air Force version of OSHA, which is more stringent. MANIFEST – the shipping document originated and signed by the generator, which contains information required by 40 CFR, 2621 Subpart B. MITIGATION – lessening of adverse effects an undertaking may cause. PCB (Polychlorinated Biphenyls) – proven carcinogens that are toxic, halogenated organic compounds, which are not easily degraded and are persistent in the environment. Formerly used in electrical equipment.

26

NOV (Notice of Violation) – a formal notification by a regulatory agency that an installation has been determined to be in violation of applicable environmental requirements or standards. TCLP (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure) – the laboratory procedure used to determine if a waste material should be classified as a hazardous waste on the basis of toxicity. If a contaminant appears on the TCLP list, it will fall under regulation.
