Management of Wastes Produced During an Incident Response
The following procedures will be followed to manage wastes generated during the response to an
incident:
Wastes that are potentially hazardous only because of their mercury content will
generally be treated in-place. Every effort will be made to minimize volatilization of
mercury.
Wastes which are potentially hazardous due to their caustic soda content will generally be
treated in place according to MSDS directions or will be introduced into the caustic leach
circuit as appropriate. Caustic wastes will be kept separate from acid wastes to prevent
the generation of heat.
Other wastes will be containerized and analyzed for hazardous characteristics as
appropriate. Wastes determined to be hazardous will be managed in accordance with
applicable requirements at a licensed facility.
If the integrity of a secondary containment area was damaged during the incident or release,
either sufficient secondary containment will be provided for the area while the containment is
being repaired; or the repair will be completed before the proposed TSF resumes operation.
Hazardous materials resulting from spills, releases, and incidents will be contained as appropriate
in containers compatible with the materials. Containers will be labeled and managed
appropriately. Records of the material containers will be tracked and entered in the proposed
TSF’s operating record. After such an event has occurred, PMR will notify NDEP of the
following:
