OLYMPIC AIR POLLU'TION CON'TROL AUTHORITY 909 Sleater-Kinney Rd. S.E.. Suite 1 · Lacey, WA 98503 MEMO June 2, 1999 TO Mayor Kathy Wolf &. Administrator Shelly Badger, City of Yelm FROM Craig Weckesser, Public Information/Education Outreach, Ext. 111 ~~ SUBJECT' Update on Yelm Styrene Odor issues . ~ ,., II Per our conversations on May 25, here's a brief "bulleted" update on the above subject: . OAPCA has received 2 formal complaints from Nancy Callahan. One was a drive by, which the agency will accept, but it will not count towards OAPCA's Odor Enforcement Policy (copy follows) The other was from her home. OAPCA has not received anything from Rebecca Galbreath · A meeting of selected OAPCA management and staff, including Executive Director Chuck Peace and chief Pennitting Engineer Mark Goodin, was held May 27 The purposes of the meeting were to assess the complaints received and the status of LASCO and Amtech in regards to the Odor Enforcement Policy and other agency regulations. · As you probably know, LASCO completed its installation of OAPCA-ordered higher exhaust stacks by November 1, 1998. Staff noted that the new stacks should lessen styrene odor concentrations at "close-in" areas to the plant. Nothing, though, will totally remove odors. OAPCA conducted extensive testing and went through other procedures to assure LASCO's efforts complied with Phase II of the agency Odor Enforcement Policy by meeting Reasonable Available Control Technology (RACT) LASCO is now into Phase III of the policy · Amtech is already at Phase III of the policy. OAPCA will be evaluating the company with an inspection during early June. The agency will also be assessing Amtech's status involving a voluntary compliance schedule to reduce odors OAPCA is expected to receive a letter from Amtech this month indicating how the company has met Phase III of the aforementioned policy Finally, I am sending you a copy of a 2-sided flyer we "re-issued" in February, 1998 regarding information for filing complaints. Hope this assists your efforts. a.\memoform.oap (360) 438-8768 · 1-800-422-5623 · E-Mail OAPCA@wIn.com.HomePagebttp://wwwwln.coml-oapca FAX (360) 491-6308 06/02/99 10 45 'al 206 491 6308 OAPCA 141002 .d' Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority Information Regarding Filing Complamts Olympic AIr Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA) is a regional agency of government havmg regulatory and enforcement authority m and for Clallam, Grays Harbor, Jefferson, Mason, Pacific, and Thurston counties. OAPCA is responsible for enforcing federal, state and local. arr pollutlon standards and governing air pollution emissions from new and eXIsting sources as well as those from urban and rural neIghborhoods OAPCA accepts complamts related to smoke, open fIre, woodstoves, fugitive dust, odors, and other emisSIOns. OAPCA's phone number is (360) 438-8768 or 1-800-422-5623 Anonymous complamts are never accepted by OAPCA. Following are procedures for registering both informal and formal complaints as well as the process followed by OAPCA for complamts involving odor issues. Informal complaints - An Informal complaint is used by OAPCA as an InvestIgating tool and a means of documenting potentIal arr pollutIon problems · OAPCA encourages complamants to call the agency unmediately whenever they are bemg impacted by an air pollutIon problem OAPCA staff is requITed to complete a fonn on each Informal complamt. · A complamant must provide OAPCA the following infonnatlOn. Name, address, telephone number(s), suspected source of the arr pollutlon problem, an address (if known) of the source of the problem, the type of complaint, the tune and date of the occurance, and a brief descriptIon of the problem. OAPCA will ask If the complainant requires confidentiality. OAPCA staff will also explam the agency's formal complamt process · As soon as possible following the riling of a complaint, OAPCA will attempt to mvestigate to further determine the scope of the problem and possible remedies (Complamts are logged at OAPCA and kept on file.) · Enforcement action may be taken if a Violation is documented through OAPCA investigation. Formal complaints - If a complainant deems that an arr pollution problem is very serious, an ongoing problem, or there are other extenuating circumstances, a formal complaint may be filed with the agency A formal complaint differs from an informal. complaint in that they must be notarized, legal. actions may be involved in the process, and notlces of violation can be issued as a result of such complaints. · A formal complaint form is available at the OAPCA office or it can be requested by phone and will be mailed. · Drrections are clear in the formal complaint cover letter. Confidentiality 1S not an optlOn for fonnal complaints as OAPCA ml\Y be req.uested to disclose the complaInt as part of the enforcement proceedings. To be valid, a formal complaint must be notarized or signed in the presence of OAPCA staff. Formal complainants must agree to appear before a judicIal hearings board or court. --ovet- ../ 06/02/99 10 45 '81 206 491 6308 OAPCA l4I003 d Complaints ~ 2 .

Problem Statement: Add "Yelm Mayor and City Council" after group of community leaders consisted of the A general comment regarding the Problem Statement. We concur that additional info stating the problem be added here as mentioned at the meeting, however, we want to make sure that the statement does not focus on anyone specific area, such as air pollution One suggestion would be to add that we do not currently have enough specific health data about the Yelm area to be proactive in our health prevention and improvement programs You always do an excellent job at keeping this issue balanced, so we are sure it will be fine with the enhancements discussed briefly at the meeting Project Description Third paragraph, is the entire task force mentioned the same as the group of community leaders in the problem statement? I think it is, but may want to adjust the wording Addressing Diversity Mayor Wolf stressed the importance of making sure that the Nisqually Indian Tribe supports their involvement in the process before we mention them in the grant scope That is the extent of our comments.

Rick Roberts, a Yelm for Clean Air participant, speaks during the public ....mment section of the Yelm City Council meeting on November 12 Yelm For Clean Air submits signatures -Group gathers 1,940 signatures opposing increased styrene emissions By Myranda Smith Nisqually Valley News During the November 12 meeting of the Yelm City Council, the council chambers were flooded with Yelm For Clean Air supporters, students from the Adventurous Club at Yelm High School and other concerned residents, some choosing to sit on the floor to attend the lively meeting Channel 5 News cameras were also on hand to record the discussion relating to Yelm's two styrene- producing plants, Amtech Corporation and LASCO, Inc. Wednesday's public outcry was the culmination of a three-month effort by Yelm for Clean Air organizers to educate area citizens on what they say is an issue of public safety - the emission of increasing quantities of styrene into the air Styrene emissions are not new to Yelm Nor are the concerns, voiced by various individuals over the years, about its long-term effects on the health of those breathing the@me9 However, the issue, received an infusion of new . ~rgy following Olympia Air Pollution Control Authority Board of Director's n t" decision August 13, to approve Amtech Corporation's request to increase its emissions from 18 5 tons per year to 99 tons Shortly thereafter, two formal complaints were submitted to OAPCA by Yelm residents Nancy Callihan and John Klapp The two appellants are scheduled to appear before the Pollution Control Hearings Board for a pre-hearing conference today The pair then set about establishing a grassroots movement aimed at gaining enough community support not only to overturn OAPCA board's approval of the increased emissions, but also to force both Amtech and LASCO to stop emitting any styrene into the air Yelm For Clean Air organizers had requested the city conduct an open forum on the issue during last week's regularly scheduled council meeting and called for concerned citizens to attend However, in a press release issued by the City the previous week, Mayor Kathy Wolf and chief administrative officer Shelly Badger noted that, on the advice of the city's attorney, there would be no such forum Before listening to any public comment, Wolf announced that the city had decided to seek a second legal opinion from Lacey's city attorney~~xxxxxx.

Nancy Callihan spoke on behalf of Yelm for Clean Air She submitted 1,940 signatures to the city council, informing them that all these citizens were against the continued emission of styrene into the air In handing over the signatures, Callihan told council members 1,940 individuals were telling them, "I as a resident/concerned person of this community of Yelm will not tolerate this increase of toxic emissions In addition, I demand that you proceed to take the appropriate steps to eliminate all toxic emissions in the air of Yelm." At the end of Callihan's five-minute speech, she stated "In summary, we urge you to perform your legal obligation as a governing body of this fast-developing city of Yelm We urge you to lead our city's growth and development on a path that is not only economically beneficial, but also one that preserves and enhances the quality of life in areas of health, safety and welfare for our present and future generations" ~Helen Frost, the public relations coordinator of Yelm For Clean Air noted 20 .A percent (40) of LASCO's 200 employees live in Yelm She assumed that Amtech's P.l\rd~ 100 employees live in Yelm because, she said, the company would not release ~ ~~ that information She therefore concluded that 140 fiberglass employees live in .~ Yelm She then stated that an approximate 2,000 people (stated that they aren't ~ 0\' happy with the current conditions While working towards her goal of zero ~ .J- emissions she said she has encountered residents who plan to move due to the r- styrene emissions She posed the question, "Can't we do better for our }Y ~A) community?" ,,lY' Rick Roberts, a supporter of Yelm for Clean Air spoke about the Washington ~_~ / Clean Air Act's declaration to preserve, protect, and enhance the air quality for \ Jv'" ~J ~ current and future generations (RCW 70 94 011) ? According to Roberts, the Department of Ecology further states that it is .AY. their "policy to reduce, avoid, or eliminate toxic air pollutants prior to their K generation whenever economically and technically practicable (WAC 173-460- 010) " Alinda Michael told council members she was diagnosed with asthma three weeks after she started working for LASCO She explained that she had undergone a mandatory physical before she started working for the company and was found - 2- ,1 _...... clean air 2 47 ms to be in good health Gayle Pritchett voiced her concern about the issue and the fact that the technology "is out there to clean up air pollution II She said she had had a lengthy conversation with Peter Dennis, director of LASCO, about the possibility of installing the technology capable of cleaning up styrene pollution Dennis claimed the cost would be $2 25 million He added a major barrier from his company's perspective is that the Internal Revenue Service does not allow a tax credit for installing this type of equipment The Adventurous Club was founded last spring with its emphasis on outdoor adventures and environmental stewardships Sheila Wilson is the advisor to the new club and a science teacher at Yelm High School.

A response to your questIOns follows 1 How can Lasco fully comply with ADP requirements when its employees are not informed of those conditions? The Lasco permIt was Issued on 717/97 The AOP program IS new and complex. All maJor sources are faced wIth the problem of educatmg the appropnate employees about the permIt. Makmg the permit work effiCIently WIll come WIth expenence. The company management IS responsible for comphance WIth the permIt condItions. 2 Should Lasco employees be required to know conditions of ADP emission regulations? The regulatIOns upon whIch the AOP IS based do not reqUIre every employee to know all the condItIOns of the permit. The regulatIOn allows the busmess to deCIde which employees wIll be famIhar WIth the permit condItIons 3 What guarantee does the community have that Lasco will act in "good faith" and report an "air spill incident" such as that which occurred if they (Lasco) does not know if anyone in the community visualized (or smelled) an infraction? The regulatIOn proVides for cnmmal penaltIes for knowmgly reportmg false mformatIOn or not dIscIosmg VIOlatIOns. In addItIon the company must submIt a report annually to EP A RegIOn 10 whIch certIfies comphance 4 If there is a monetary assessment levied on Lasco for an infraction, how does Yelm benefit monetarily from that assessment? Yelm can only benefit mdlrectly CItIes pay a fee to OAPCA. PenaltIes collected can help delay mcreases m the CIty assessment.

Compliance Schedule Required. Has a compliance schedule been submitted? If so, where is it? A complIance schedule has not been submItted or reqmred by OAPCA. OAPCA does not have any eVIdence that the above conditIon was VIOlated. b Monitoring Is the facilities direct contact person. There is only one phone # for complaints located on the chain link fence boundary but no name of who the contact person is The AC)P (section G2b) requires lhat a phone number of the plant contact person be posted on the fence; however It does not reqmre that the name of the person be posted. Since the prevailing wind was in the direction of the water plant, which is outside facility boundaries, has the water been tested? The Yelm water plant IS not located next to Lasco, however there IS a waste water (sewage) treatment plant next to them. The Yelm Water Plant gets water from wells whIch are located downtown. There are no open reservOIrs. Smcerely, ~ a. LJ:...1---. J ames A. Wilson EmISSIons Data SpeCialIst cc Charles Peace, OAPCA ExecutIve Officer Mark Goodm PE Page 14 Business Examiner July 6, 1998 ~ Environment & Conservation Law requires fees to pay for 2 of the agency's programs continued from page 11 Authority, where a recent review by the office of Stat~ Auditor Brian Sonntag concluded the it was in full compliance. Annual registration fees affect all pollution-producing businesses under the Authority's jurisdiction, which covers Thurston, Mason, Clallam, Jefferson, Pacific and Grays Harbor counties Regis- tration fees, which vary from business to business on the bases of emissions they produce, would increase 3.5 per- cent. Due to emissions from toxic auto body paints, Lacey Collision pays $163 a year in registration fees. It faces an increase of $5 70 under the current proposed increase. "If it helps them,"says Bill Doyle, owner of Lacey Co-llision, as well as Capital Collision in Olympia, "I'm all for it. We've got to take care of our envi- , ronment." Operating permit fees affect only large air potential sources of pollution, such as Simpson, Crown Cork & Seal in I Olympia and Lasco in Yelm. Mullen There are about a dozen such poten- tial polluters in all Operating fees would increase 15 percent to 17 per- cent. Lasco, a fiberglass bathware manu- facturer, paid $18,593 during the 1998 fiscal year On top of that, the company pays an annual registratiQn fee The increase in the operating fees alone could tack on as much as $3,200 to the company's annual bill. Kevin Mullen, plant manager of Lasco, acknowledges that the hike is significant but says the Authority is one government office that provides services he doesn't mind paying more for. "We, as a company, feel the money is well spent,"says Mullen. Lasco has a Title V permit, which ailows businesses to make operating changes without applying for a new per- mit every time they do Mullen, this means he can try out new pollution pre- vention equipment and ideas by simply sending a written change notice to the Authority "It streamlines the process, so we can make changes quickly," says Mullen. Notice of construction fees also are scheduled to increase, but the amount of the increase would vary according to the type of pollution being produced during a given construction or expan- sion project. Engineers have designs on salmon - friendly city By Marie McNamara Business Examiner Staff S CA Engineering in Lacey believes it has come up with a way to pro- tect salmon-but it's going to require some dramatic changes in the way we live. "We need to make smaller footprints," says Tom Holz, hydrologic services man- ager of SCA Engineering. The concept is a zero-runoff neighbor- hood'--One that's unpaved so stormwater can seep into the ground instead of rush- ing to the streams and rivers where salmon spawn. According to statistics presented at a recent conference on salmon, it takes as little as 10 percent of a watershed to be paved over before runoff will degrade fish habitat. Development in the proximity of where salmon spawn is a major factor in the addit~on of that species to the pend- ing list edangered species. Residential and even commercial developments will have to change drasti- caJly, says Holtz. He believes the zero- runoff neighborhood his firm has designed provides a model for the change that is necessary. The zero-runoff neighborhood would look very different from today's suburban neighborhoods cleared of trees and replaced with wide streets and mowed lawns, says Holtz. A zero-runoff develop- ment would be nestled in an evergreen forest, and the grounds would be covered ~,.~'_' . , . ^ - . _'-."" . ,. ,,' - J .~'.f;: :"i: ~. ,'.. ""... -:.""";.. ~ " .

" One-way lanes such as these would be made of porous material that would allow stormwa- ter to seep into the ground, says engineer Tom Holz in describing SeA Engineering's vision of a zero-runoff community. with ferns. Lots would be smaller, with just enough land cleared to accommodate houses. Homes would have rooftop gar- dens and streets, sidewalks and drive- ways would be made of porous blocks. In lieu of wide streets, there would be narrow one-way lanes that would follow the contours of the land-a practice less damaging to the environment than reshaping nature to suit man's needs, Holz explains Such changes would requir~ society to slacken its pace, he adds, because speed limits would have to ~. be limited to 15 to 20 mph.

The Authority has proposed an increase in the annual registration fee, the operating permit fees and the notice of constructIOn fees- and the businesses who'll have to pay them aren't complaining. Simpson Timber Company in Shelton is typical of those that have expressed their opinions so far. The company now pays about $29,000 in operating permit fees each year. Under the new fee struc- ture, Simpson would pay nearly $5,000 more. "It's a big deal," Simpson Environmental Engineering Services Manager Jerry Ficklin says of the increase, ''but I strongly support user- based fees." ",Ficklin says the Authority provides valuable services that have earned it the support of industry The Authority helps interpret complex air pollution regulations and provides technical assistance in assessing emissions, Ficklin explains.

The Authority is accepting written com- ments until a July 8 public hearing on the issue, after which the decision on whether to adopt the new fee plan will be in the hands of the Authority's board of directors. As of press time, the Authority had not received one comment opposing the fee hike designed to offset increases in administration costs. \ ., i ,;;; .ll:# July 6, 1998 Business Examiner Page 11 "The cost of operation has gone up and the work load has increased in the fast-growing counties we govern," says Craig Weckesser, information officer for the Authority Established in 1968 by the Clean Air Washington Act, the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority enforces federal, state and local air pollution standards.

Page 1 ~ SOUTH SOUND PROFILE Steve Bloom/The Olympian AT WORK: lASeD manager Kevin Mullen stands in the plant area as a shower stall is wheeled outside LASCO chief does PR for styrene . YELM PLANT: LASCO's Kevin Mullen pushes the message that styrene is safe. By Trisha Collopy The Olympian YELM - Kevin Mullen has nailed one main tenet of good media relations. stick- ing with the message. As manager of the LASCO Bathware plant in Yelm, he has attended public forums, granted newspaper inter- views and even appeared on a Seattle radio show to get out his message. Styrene, a liquid used in manufacturing bathtubs at the plant, is not a health hazard. "Have I mentioned' styrene,is safe?" he asked at the tail end of yet another in- terview Mullen, 37, has handled his share of styrene ques- tions in th~ year and a half since he took the job as plant manager. The issue became heated when neighbor Amtech Corp. asked to increase its styrene emissions last year. LASCO, which produces most of the styrene emis- sions in the area, was also in the spotlight. In January, someone threw a rock through a win- dow at the LASCO plant and spray-painted the word "leave" on another window nearby. Mullen's response is to get out the message that LASCO, which employs 180 at its plant in Yelm, is a good neighbor. He attends public meet- ings on styrene, takes ques- tions at LASCO's headquar- ters and appeared as a guest on Seattle radio station KVI- AM when the host couldn't get Amtech officials for his talk show Some say he communi- cates his message well. "I think Kevin is sensitive in wanting to work with the public," said Cecelia Jenk- ins, executive director of the Yelm Area Chamber of Com- merce. "He is open to questions," she said. But some members of Yelm for Clean Air, a group of local activists, say they don't like his style. "He's arrogant," said Rick Roberts. "He just doesn't like people confronting him on these issues." Mullen has responded to some complaints, however. Roberts said. After Roberts called Mullen to tell him LASCO had to post a phone number outside the plant, according to the plant's emissions permit, the phone number went up. Mullen's openness is part of an effort by LASCO offi- cials to respond to public concerns, said Craig Shugert, director of opera- tions for LASCO, which is based in Anaheim, Calif. "We've encouraged Kevin to answer questions when- ever possible and get in- volved so no one would have the impression LASCO was trying to hide anything," Shugert said. Mullen said he had some experience dealing with the public in his previous job, at a caulk and ceiling plant in Ohio. Once he was hired, LASCO put him through a manager training program, including a session with a public relations consultant, Shugert said. "From a PR standpoint, he needed to be able to respond to questions," Shugert said. Shugert said Mullen is good at taking technical is- sues and explaining them to the public. At LASCO's office suite and showroom in Yelm, where he works, the sweet plastic smell of styrene is not noticeable. In the plant next door, workers spray styrene on the plastic outer shells of fu- ture bathtubs. They make 100,000 tubs a year at the plant and earn $11.50 an hour, on average. Mullen said the plant is an important part of the indus- try of Yelm. "I believe manufacturing is important to the commu- nity," he said. He cites statistics, proving that the level of styrene in the plant is safe. The level in the air is also safe. It meets EPA guidelines, he says. As the invisible stream of styrene spooled out of the plant's exhaust stacks and silently drifted over the housetops nearby, Mullen waxed philosophical. "All the information I have says styrene at the levels that the community is ex- posed to has no health ef- fects on the community," he said. If that weren't the case, Mullen said, he would be the first to shut the plant down. "If I found that styrene was a cancer-causing agent, I can make changes," he said. "Being right here, I can save the town."

Another future precautIon whIch we will be taking is to modify our eXisting dust collection system which should reduce the necessity for clean-outs Simply put, more of the grinding dust should be captured into our present dust filtration system called a baghouse The baghouse is a senes of bags which collect the solid material and let the dust free air pass through As you can see, every precaution IS being taken to assure that our grinding dust will be contained in the future Jun-12-9a 09:37A P.Ol LASCO BATHWARE HOI NOR'fHFRN PACIFIC ROAD yf-',LM, \t'A$HING'fON 98~97 PHONE 360-4SH-31)OO tAX.]60.458-337."i ..

From: John M. Klapp - resident of the City of Yelm, Washington. Subject: Styrene Toxic Air Pollutants - manufactured and dispersed into the air b Amtech and Lasco Cor orations across the communi of Yelm. Copies to: (i) The Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA). (ii) The Honorable, Mr Gary Locke, Governor of Washington State. In the Thursday, May 7, 1998 issue of the Nisqually Valley News the following was quoted: "The OAPCA IS requesting comments regarding the issuance of Amtech's draft air operating permit" ... "Comments must pertain to the adequacy of the draft Air Operatmg Permit (AOP) in assunng complIance with applIcable air quality regulations and stan- dards" ... "The draft AOP is the first step to Issuing a final AOP. OAPCA may hold a pub- lIc heanng If It determmes significant publIc interests exist concerning the draft AOP. Written comments WIll be accepted until4.30pm on June 8, 1998." My questIOn IS: "Who, what, where, why, when and how does anybody get to the positIon that 0 APCA ~ hold a public heanng If It determInes sIgmficant pub- hc Interest eXIsts?" In November of 1997, 1940 SIgnatures were prOVIded to thIS councIl and OAP- CA WIth the follOWIng directive: "I. as a reSIdent/concerned person of thIS community of Yelm WIll not tolerate this increase of toxic emIssions. In addItion. I demand that you proceed to take the approprIate steps to elimInate all tOXIC emISSIons in the air of Yelm." Y elm City Council Mlllutes, Attachment A, 5/27/98 ATTACHMENT A These 1940 signatures were from the people of our community who live, work and shop m Yelm. Dunng the Amtech appeal process, they requested to five-fold further pollute. ThIS council receIved legal advice that the Issue was "out of our hands" dUrIng the appeal process. The appeal process was 'rubber stamped' and they won. I chose not to partIcIpate m thIS process when I gamed knowledge of how poisonous Styrene really is. I choose now to read into thIS record the following position of the Center for DIsease Control (CDC) who, through its Senior Behavioral TOXI- cologist, was quoted saying: "Styrene is a nervous and ;:tndrocrin system toxin. This chemical was found to create EEG abnormalIties in the middle portIOn of the brain after long term/low dose or chronic exposure. Lesions were also found to develop along the nerve fibers leading to the bram. Behavioral changes associated with the function of the front lobe portIOn of the brain were also noted. This writing also reveal~d that 1;>ehavioral decrement were being inherIted by the offsprIng of the exposed indi-:. viduals. The cnc. in 1987. Issued a current intelligence bylIetin which listed th~ behavioral ~ffects of constant chronic exposure to Styrene and 'like' substances. Ihis bulletin stated that Styrene was capable of causing (- quote: )... Sustained changes in personality and mood (emotional instability and diminished impulse control and motivation). and impaired intellectual function (decreased concentra- tion abjIity. memory. and learning ability)." There IS an alternative method that Amtech and Lasco CorporatIOns can proceed to: They can contain the poison, instead of dumping it into our lungs through the air we breathe. Technology exists - and is already being used - by "conscious" plastIC manufacturers m thIS mdustry. It is the people of thIS community who set the direction and - through the election process of democracy - we have chosen you to be our leaders. As our elected offiCials, we deSIre each of you to ponder this Issue ... and report to us your indIVIdual pOSItions m wntmg. AddItionally, we WIsh one official pub- hc record report that collectively - as Mayor and CouncIl - determines what ac- tion you choose to take. The people who elected you - by their vote ... or their SIlence - want to know. ThIs Issue WIll not go away. It will either continue to be taken mto our lungs by our apathy and Ignorance, or Amtech and Lasco will become a part of the "conscious" plastic industry that lead by their example - and go to a manufactur- mg process that has NO emiSSIons. Yelm City Council Minutes, Attachment A, 5/27/98 ATIACHMENT A Please don't make any hurned, negative decisions. Maybe ... if you take a walk m nature, you might easily find the answer to what you really want to accomplIsh for Yelm and our future generatIOns ... and how you want to lead. Please 'take tIme out' - to hsten to the laughter of chIldren and to the plight of the elderly... that you will soon become. Then act - on the commumty's behalf - with the cour- age of your individual convictions. We are with you. Thank you, John M. Klapp. P.S.

'1/-'- \(' . \ I 0 Journal of India looks at long-term con- ' sequences of the 1984 gas leak in Bho- pal, India. By administering question- naires and clinical tests in 1994, the au- thors found that Bhopal residents who had the highest gas exposure 10 years earlier suffered the largest number of general health problems, fevers, birth complica- tions and respi- ratory symp- toms. Neurologi- J cal, psychiatric and ophthalmic diseases were also most preva- lent among the most heavily ex- posed. In an ac- companying pa- per, the Interna- tional Medical Commission, Bhopal, argues for the creation of a worldwide bill of rights for health and safety to prevent such tragedies in the future. They specifically condemn Union Carbide for being less than straightforward about the quantity and composition of leaking gases at the time, failing to have provided any emergency preparation and, among other things, failing to deliver adequate compensa- tion to the afflicted population.

Vacuum Bag Molding The basIc methods used m open moldmg fabncahon have changed lIttle dunng the past 30 years. Open moldmg spray-up and hand lay-up productIon techruques offer a number of advantages for firms that reqUire a lImIted number of urnts from each mold, need a rapId start up, and have lImIted capItal for toolmg Open moldmg umt costs are !ugh due to the labor mtenslve methods and lImited daily output. Because of lImIted productIon reqUirements and/ or urnque product deSIgns, many fabncators will conhnue to rely on open mold fabncahon. However, efforts to Improve open moldmg processmg techmques appear to have gamed momentum dunng recent years. Some of the advantages of closed moldmg technolOgies, notably !ugher glass to resm rahos and reduced waste and emISSIons, are bemg sought. Firms engaged m the manufacture of hIgh performance composItes, such as aIrcraft components, have been forced to develop many new approaches to open moldmg Use of speCIalIzed matenals such as carbon fiber remforced epoxy prepregs, exohc core matenals, and urnque remforcmg fiber combmahons has led to the development of mnovatIve toolmg, lay-up strategIes, and cunng approaches. WhIle most fabncators WIll have lIttle use for the autoclaves reqUIred to work WIth exohc !ugh strength matenal, other processmg strategIes, such as vacuum bagging, appear to have potenhal for bnngmg some of the advantages of closed moldmg to open moldmg Vacuum Bag Molding Processes Vacuum bag moldmg processes can be set up to replace many conventIOnal open moldmg operaTIons Molds are bUIlt from the same matenals usmg the same techruques reqUired for creahng open molds Resms and filler matenals dIffer lIttle from those used to produce components m open moldmg ConventIOnal gel coaTIng operaTIons can also be uhlIzed. The vacuum bagging process begins With the applIcahon of a gel coat to the surface of the mold When a high qUalIty fimsh IS deSIred, a surfacmg layer of glass IS carefully placed over the gel coat. Glass remforcmg and other matenals, such as core stock, are cut to fit and placed m the mold Catalyzed resm can be sprayed, pumped, or poured over the lay-up Where multiple layers of remforcmg and/ or core matenals are used, the resm should be applIed so that proper dlstnbutIOn to all parts of the lay-up can be assured Once the lay-up matenals are m place, the exposed area IS covered by speCial layers of plashes which are sealed to the edges of the mold Before the resm begms to cure, a vacuum IS drawn through one or more strategIcally located ports m the mold or the plaSTIC cover A cross sechon of a vacuum bag moldmg set-up IS pIctured 1 n Figure 4-7 A -number of benefits can be denved through the use of vacuum bag lay-up With the exception of the gel coat, resm delIvery can be accomplIshed WIthout atomIZaTIon.

Molds are laId-up over a pattern m the same manner as those used for open moldmg Some speaalIzed toohng may be reqUIred m the form of vacuum hnes, fittIngs, and ports. A substantIal vacuum pump and mamfold system are also reqUIred. Potential Benefits -- When spray guns are not used to dehver resm to the mold, styrene emIssions can be greatly reduced. Smce final dIstnbutIon of the resm to all areas of the lay-up IS largely controlled by the vacuum, gel coatIng IS the only step m vacuum bag moldmg that reqUIres atomIzation of resm.

Start up and toolmg can be accomphshed qUIckly and economIcally Direct lay-up labor costs may be reduced, and rate of production from a mold may be Improved Resms used m some vacuum baggmg operatIons may have to be deSIgned for the process. WIth large or complex structures, gel tImes wIll need to be extended, and tluck lay-ups should use resm systems that WIll not produce excessive heat When the apphcatIon of matenal can be accomplIshed wIthm a relatIvely short penod of time, conventIonal resms may be used Economic Factors -- Vacuum bag moldmg IS probably best SUIted for mtermedIate volume productIon of small to mIdSIze components Items such as large boat hulls and aIrcraft wmg structures have been produced usmg vacuum baggIng techniques, but large surface areas may be difficult to cover With lay-up materIals before resms begm to gel Products such as seats, boat hatches, boat deck structures, cored bulkheads, and other Items WIth relatively shallow draft molds are Ideal for tlus type of processmg The release film can also Impart a fair fImsh on the second surface that may elImmate a need for secondary operations to Improve the mSIde firush. IrutIal mvestments m vacuum baggIng may be returned qUIckly m some applIcations In companson to open moldmg, potentIal payback IS greatest where productIon rates are moderate, hIgh strength and low weIght are essential, and the shape of the product IS not overly complex Payback potential IS lImIted when the mold deSIgn features deep drafts or complex shapes and demands of quahty and strength are only average A cost that must be conSIdered IS the extra solId waste that thIS method generates Although some molders are able to reuse Chapter IV Page 53 .. _,~.,", ,'_, -~"l"~-':':"; ~~h...':' "'~~.... . . !r~ ' " -"'-."":"'O':-."'~~':"'"r--_. ---;-.-___~ -___.. _____. _________4._ __.____ ~ __ the fittings and even the baggmg material, the bleeder material and the release film are all waste. The amount of cured resin that is thrown away in the bleeder material can be minimized by careful application of just the right amount of resin to the laminate H this is not controlled, vacuum bagging can be an expensive source of solid waste, Since most fiberglass processors have limIted financing for research and development of new production processes, vacuum bagging with good resin control is an attractive production alternative. Suppliers of vacuum bagging materials are listed in Appendix C. Applications -- Vacuum bag molding has been successfully used by Hatteras Yachts in New Bern, North Carolina, and by Fountam Powerboats in Washington, North Carolma. Hatteras uses the process in the production of a number of small parts and for production of floor units and bulkheads for larger yachts. The process is used almost exclusively with high strength-to-weight ratio components which are cored with high performance structural foam. The units produced exhibited outstanding structural integrity and good surface quality Floor and deck systems produced by Hatteras are essentially large flat shapes that sandwich several mches of core stock between outer skins of fiberglass reinforced polyester Many of these units are well over 250 sq ft. in area. Lay-up of the units IS accomphshed in one operation, with resin applied both above and below the core stock. Once all materials are in place, they are covered by a release film, a bleeder material, and a vacuum bag which is sealed to the edges of the mold. No gel coat is used on the floor systems since they are covered by firushing materials after installation. For most small parts, molds are gel coated before lay-up is started. Fountain Powerboats has used vacuum bagging to produce a number of small parts mcludmg engme compartment hatch covers Currently they use the techruque only for boats produced for the mihtary Case Study No 5 Type Vacuum Bag Moldmg Powerboat Engme Compartment Hatches Company' Fountam Powerboats Location.

COMPREHENSIVE: The county will conduct a health assessment of people in Yelm, Roy, Rainier and McKenna, By Patty Kinney For The Olympian YELM - More than a dozen memberS of the Yelm For Clean Air group are breathing easier after learning that the City Council has OK'd comprehensive health assess- ments of area residents. Mayor Kathy Wolf said the study, I to be conducted by Thurston County, is not directly related to the group's concern about the impact of styrene on air quality The citizen group formed after the Olympic Air pollution C'Ontrol Authority ap- proved a boost in styrene emissions from the Amtech Corp plant in Yelm. "We want to take a look at health matters mainly because this is such a fast-growing area," Wolf said. Yelm For Clean Air activist Nancy Callahan said the assessment is long overdue. "This came out of nine months of work," she said. "We want to con- tinue to educate the people about what is going on around them, par- ticularly with the air they breathe. This is definitely a step in the right direction." Thurston County Health Officer Diana Yu said the study will be an indicator for the county's southeast region. "We are talking about the entire region to include Rainier, McKenna and Roy," she said. The county will gather informa- C3 MONDAY JUNE 1,1998 CALL US! We want to hear from you. We're interested in news from your school, subdivision or homeowners group tion in Yelm via detailed, door-to- door assessments, she said. "This will be a useful tool because up to this point we have not done this type of extensive survey of a small community," Yu said. "This is a very positive way for the community to rally around health issues. When they have the report in hand they can look at is- sues affecting them and decide where to go from there." Following the assessment, the county will publish a report that can be used as a guidebook for both citi- zens and officials, Yu said. County Health Department Deputy Director Sherri McDonald estimates the assessment will cost $15,000 to $20,000 She said the city will not necessar- ily have to pay for the assessment because funds might be available through grants and other means. A timeline has not been estab- lished, but McDonald said it likely will be a year before the assessment is completed. Yu said the test is important be- cause it will give the city and county a means by which to compare Yelm with other communities both state- and nationwide. "It will take in to consideration the lifestyle of the person answering the questions. For example, if some- one has a breathing problem and thinks it may be caused by air pollu- tion we need to find out if they smoke or even burn wood in a wood stove in their home," she added. "There are many factors involved and we will take all of them into con- sideration."

CopIes to: (1) The OlympIc Air PollutIOn Control Authonty (OAPCA). (ii) The Honorable, Mr Gary Locke, Governor of Washmgton State, In the Thursday, May 7, 1998 Issue of the Nisqually Valley News the following was quoted: "The OAPCA IS requesting comments regarding the issuance of Amtech's draft aIr operating permit" .., "Comments must pertam to the adequacy of the draft Air Operating PermIt (AOP) m assunng compliance with apphcable aIr quality regulations and stan- dards" ," "The draft AOP is the first step to Issuing a final AOP. OAPCA may hold a pub- lIc hearmg if It determmes SIgnificant publIc mterests eXIst concerning the draft AOP, Written comments WIll be accepted untIl4.30pm on June 8, 1998," My question IS: "Who, what, where, why, when and how does anybody get to the pOSItIOn that OAPCA ~ hold a publIc heanng If It determmes significant pub- hc mterest eXIsts?" In November of 1997, 1940 SIgnatures were provided to thIS councIl and OAP.

I am concerned about the number of babies being conceived in Yelm that have Turner's Syndrome. There have been at least six that I am aware of in the last three years. (Three of them were in the last nine months.) Five of these were stillborn, delivered before full-term. The sixth one is still being carried, but not expected to live much longer. All of these babies had complications involving hydrops and cystic hydromas. One in 2500 babies born have Turner's Syndrome. Of the ones that are lost before birth the ratio is 1 in 1000. Turner's Syndrome is when there is one X chromosome missmg It only happens to females, They are sterile, short (usually less than five feet tall), have stubby fingers, and sometimes have webbed necks. They often have heart and kidney problems as well. Some of these women in Yelm who have lost babies to Turner's Syndrome have had genetic testing done. Nothing was found to be abnormal Six babies m three years for a town the size of Yelm is very high. I am concerned that there may be something in Yelm's environment that is causing this to happen so frequently. I am working towards getting the government to do an environmental study in Yelm. /rL~ Josh Burright learned he has asthma after going to free screenings last year, On several medications, he now plays baseball and football. I ~ ~ ! ~ The asthma epidemic USA WEEKEND 1 American in 20 now has this ITRi1Ti11 wheezing disease, Better diagnosis and I.IJ.!il!llI treatment can help. BY MICHELE PUWA TURK J. aSH BURRIGHI; 13, had no idea he had asthma until last spring, as his family traveled from Texas to their new home near Spokane, Wash. Pollen triggered the first asthma attack. "I couldn't breathe," he recalls. "It felt like someone was stepping on my chest." Josh's mother took him to a free asthma screening at a mall, He blew air into a device called a spirom- eter, which measured the breathing capacity of his lungs, Later, a doctor confirmed what Josh's mom sus- pected. Not only does he have asthma, but he's allergic to pollens abundant in the Pacific Northwest. MORE WHEEZES EVERYWHERE Asthma can occur at any age, but it's more common in children than adults, Roughly 13 million - 1 in 20 - Americans have asthma, which occurs when the linings of airways become inflamed, restricting breath- ing. From 1979 to 1992, the number of asthma sufferers rose 66 percent, and the death rate, 58 percent. It's not clear why this chronic dis- ease is rampant. Triggers include respiratory infections, cold weather, tobacco smoke, physical exercise and allergens such as pollen, pet dander, dust mites, molds, even roaches, Experts agree: Asthma is under- diagnosed and undertreated. THE DANGERS OF SELF-MEDICATION Fortunately, more treatments are available, Inhaled prescription ster- oids help prevent asthma attacks by controlling the underlying inflam- mation, But some asthtpatics self- medicate with over-the-counter inhalers that don't treat the disease. Teen model Krissy Taylor, who self- medicated her symptoms, died of asthma in 1995 Three-time Olympic gold medalist Jackie Joyner-Kersee also relied on over-the-counter inhalers when first diagnosed with exercised-induced asthma. (About 90 percent of asth- matics have exercise flare-ups; some mistakenly "self-medicate" by avoid- ing exercise,) Until she began pre- scribed treatment, the Olympian repeatedly fell ill and landed in the ER. "I was thinking that because I was this great athlete, nothing could slow me down or stop me. That atti- tude really did me some harm." rn Free screenings this month May is Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, and more than 200 asthma screenings will be held at health fairs and in malls, schools and hospitals across the country. The Nationwide Asthma Screening Program is sponsored by the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, Last year, more than half of all those tested were referred for professional diagnoses, look for listings in your paper or visit the Web site http://allergy.mcg,edu. -- ......... ."..'"."....~ .'.'..~.;.--,....,"....."..,'"..,~'.'. .,..---.'"

Shelly Badger From DIANA YU <YUD@cothurston.wa.us> To shelly@yelmtel com Cc: KnightJ@co thurston.wa.us, LibbeyP@co thurston.wa.us, McDonaS@co thurston.wa.us Subject: For Mayor Wolfe Date Tuesday, May 05,19981 12 PM Shelly, I have not been able to reach Mayor Wolfe so please get her this information. It is a "heads up" on health issues. I received a call from a Thruston County 08 GYN who has a patient that is carrying a child with chromosomal abnormalities. This patient happens to also have a sister that had the same problem with her baby last year The sister's baby died and this one is also expected to die The chromosomal abnormalities were checked out on both infants by amniocentesis and on the current patient. There is no indication that this is hereditary and I will explain further later I wanted you to be aware that this has come up. The sisters wanted the Doctor to talk to the press. I asked the doctor to refer all calls from the press to me. I would encourage the same with your staff I have asked the doctor to get a medical release of information from the sisters so that I can begin an investigation. The sisters think it is related to what they can smell in the air I am not surprised. The next steps I will take are. preliminary investigation - get info from doctor, interview the sisters and whoever else they say have had similar problems with pregnancy, assessment - check with local docs for other related anomalies, look at existing vital statistics, is it a true cluster? Feasibility study - If it looks like a true cluster, we will look to State DOH for guidance, assistance and technical evaluation Etiology - then we have to determine what the cause is. I do not want to jump to any conclusions but we have been around the issue of Styrene so much that it is the first item on people's minds. In my opinion, this is different than the health assesment I am proposing for Yelm This is something that may have come up however as part of the assesment. Please feel free to send me an e-mail back since I will be in meetings most of this week.

" ___t / \~ o CHANGES TO WAC 173-460 CONTROLS FOR NEW SOURCES OF TOXIC AIR POLLUTANTS Purpose Here are some ideas for changes to WAC 173-460, Controls for New Sources of Toxic Air Pollutants. It may spark discussion among mterested panies, and further generate ideas. Background Two rules Implement RCW 70,94 152, wh.rch authonzes Ecology and local air authoritIes to reVIew new sources of aIr pollution, ' ~ The General Air Regulations have several sections devoted to NSR (New Source RevIew), PrincIpally, WAC 173-400-110 outlines the procedural requirements, and tnggers the substantIve reqlllrements of NSR. ~ The regulatlOns for New Source Revlew For TOXIC Air Pollutants establish three major reqlllrements. WAC 173-460-040 mandates NSR reqUirements for TAPs (TOXIC Air Pollutants) that supplement the basIc NSR reqUIrements of WAC 173-400-110 Ecology, with an adVISOry committee local aIr authontIes and envIronmental and industnal community representatives, began a comprehensIve evaluatIon of its NSR program in the Winter of 1995, That effort, the New Source Review Reform Project, had six major objectives. . Maintain cost-effectIve NSR that protects human health and the envIronment; Simplify the NSR RegulatlOns; Eliminate duplicanon/inconslstencles with other rules; Ensure that the emIssions controllS proportional to the permittmg effort; Increase incentives for sources to reduce emIssions; and Ensure that current scientific mformation is used in regulatIng air emissions. . . . . . The AQP (Ecology's Air Quality Program) is considering broad changes to WAC 173-460, The AQP welcomes comments and new ideas. Mer further consideratIon, the AQP will begin working on the technIcal details and wording of those changes, Revisions Applicability · Source catel!ories: WAC 173-460 uses source categones (by SIC Code) to determine what sources must comply WIth the rule, It relies both on lists in WAC 173-460-030, and the regIstration lIst in WAC 173-400-100, The NSR proviSIon of WAC 173-400-110 could replace those lIsts as apphcabIlity cnteria, · ExemptIOns: The reVIsion could incorporate the exemptions created in WAC 173-400, while clarifymg and mamtammg the exemptIons presently found in WAC 173-460, 98/03/17 Yelm Health Assessment Mailing List Drs Bill Elledge & Wilham Penn Yelm FamIly MedIcme PO Box 910 Yelm W A 98597 Cmdy CecIl UCBO PO Box 5320 Yelm W A 98597 Eleanor Hargrove Amtech PO Box 1409 Yelm W A 98597 Dr DIana Yu, MD, MSPH Pubhc Health & SocIal ServIces 529 Fourth Ave W OlympIa WA98501-82l0 Thurston County CommIssIOner DIane Oberquell 2000 Lakendge Dr SW OlympIa W A 98502 Chuck Hall Supenntendent Yelm Comm Schools PO Box 476 Yelm W A 98597 Randy Henderson, Pastor Umted MethodIst Church PO Box 448 Yelm W A 98597 Kevm Mullen Lasco Bathware 801 NP Rd SE Yelm W A 98597 Shelly Badger CIty AdmmIstrator Dr Joanne Walker ShIelds Washmgton State Dept of Health PO Box 47846 OlympIa W A 98504-7846 Joe Wilhams Yelm Chamber of Commerce PO Box 444 Yelm W A 98597 Tim Larson, PharmacIst TIm's Pharmacy PO Box 5120 Yelm W A 98597 Kelhe Petersen, Nancy Callihan & RICk Roberts "Yelm for Clean AIr" c/o SUIte 35 PO Box 7530 Y elm W A 98597 Mayor Kathy Wolf t, ',\ (Yt{1~ c{\2hei I \I'JI\ ) f~ CtS~V1f\ VJJ rt~r Ie - ,L !

I am writting to you in regards to the styrene emissions that are polluting the air in the small city of Yelm. The two plants, Amtech and LASCO bathware, are causing many medical problems for the people of this community I have a 70 year old father who lives there and refuses to leave, although he experiences headaches and nausea. Not only my father but many others in the community have also experienced these same symptoms and more. The closest school to the LASCO plant had reports from teachers that several student were acting as if they were high on inhalants, and others have come close to faintmg. All these medical issues should be a concern to everyone involved, in the decision of what percent of toxic styrene emissions released into the air is acceptable. Now Ametech Corp., makers of fiberglass products, is requesting an increase in their styrene emissions. They are asking that the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA) to increase their yearly styrene emissions from 18.5 tons to 99 tons. When already this small city homes one of the top 10 ranked emitters of styrene in the county LASCO falls at number 8 out of 1,423 companies, according to the studies by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). They emit 249 tons per year, nearly 1/8 of total emissions in the nations. Can you imagine when it is increased,what the totals will be like for the year that follows. LASCO will most likely be ranked in the top 5 According to the International Agencies for Research on Cancer, styrene may be considered a carcinogen, which has been linked to leukemia. Inhaling the styrene fumes also affects the central nervous system of a person exposed to it. Therefore, with the OAPCA allowing Amtech to increase theIr styrene emission, they are also increasing the health problems for all the residents of Yelm. There are already several medical issues being brought forth, due to the exposure to the styrene levels currently allowed. Something needs to be done regarding this matter before a lot of people get sick.12 After further research and speaking with Ron Norton from the Pierce Co Health Dept., and Carl Segacer from Washington State Health Dept. - Office of Toxic Substances, I believe there are several steps that can be taken to resolve this issue. One, the residents of Yelm could ask for the State Toxicologist, Harriet Amman, to assume further testing as a second opinion. Maybe if they, meaning the compames, would agree to a trial of recycling its emissions. It would also prove to be more cost effective than releasing the I Tacoma City Paper, DANGER.

The Trans- portation Research Board estimates that for every mile driven, appro xi, mately 1 15 pounds of carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere. That means that every day in Thurston County during the evening rush hour there are an estimated 400 tons of carbon dioxide emitted by vehicles. oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) High concentrations of NOz, responsible for the yellowish-brown color of the sky in many smoggy areas, are caused primaruy by the oxidation of NO from engine exhaust. It is the balance be- tween ambient or circulating levels of volatile organic com pounds and NOx mixed with sunlight that determine the amount of ground level ozone, an element of smog, Ground-Level ozone is an irri- tant, It damages lung tissue and ag- gravates respiratory diseases, An es- timated 90 percent of ground-level ozone inhaled into the lungs is never exhaled. Young children are especially susceptible to lung tissue damage caused by ground-level ozone Ground-level ozone should not be con- fused with the "good" ozone in the upper atmosphere that protects us from the sun's harmful rays. Ground- level ozone also contributes to the greenhouse problem. and adversely affects crops and vegetation, Efforts to reduce VOCs m.ay be the m.ost ef- fective strategy for reducing ground level ozone in m.any polluted areas in Washington, V olatile Organic compoU.nds ftBRUARY ~99B are a contributor to ground-level ozone, which is harm.ful to hum.an health, contributes to the greenhouse problem. and adversely affects crops and vegetation. VOCs, such as hydro- carbons, are the product of incom.- plete com.bustion of m.otor fuels. Cold starts (starting an autom.obile when it has been sitting for several hours and the catalytic converter is not warmed up) account for more than half of all VOC and co em.issions. lnhalable particulate Matter consists of dust particles of a size that can be inhaled into the lungs, thereby endangering human health, The m.a- jor transportation-related sources of inhalable particulate m.atter are road dust, vehicle exhaust, and tire wear Road dust is m.ade up of particles of dirt, vehicle exhaust, tire wear, brake wear and other components that are re,suspended or stirred up when ve- hicles travel over roads, especially unpaved roads, For Thurston County it has been estim.ated that road dust, tire wear, and vehicle exhaust or "mO- bile sources" account for 26 percent of all inhalable particulate matter Thurston County is currently des- ignated as a non_attainment area (an area failing to comply with the Envi- ronmental Protection Agency' s health based National Ambient Air Quality Standards) for inhalable particulate matter or pM-l0 OArCA has sub- mitted a request to the EP A for a redesignation to attainment status, and has focused efforts to reduce pM- lOon reducing wood burning. Ifthese efforts are not sufficient, transporta- tion-related or mobile sources of pM- 10 could become a focUS area in Thurston County . The total mobile-source emissions of inhalable particulate matter in Thurston County during 1995 were estim.ated by OAPCA to be 670 tons of road dust, vehicle exhaust and tire wear .

When CO levels reach 15 parts per million, the Environmental Protec- tion AgencY is required to issue a public alert, In addition to the human-health- related dangers, CO contributes to the build up of greenhouse gases, Greenhouse gases form. a barrier in the upper atmosphere acting like glass, They trap heat in and reflect it back, thus warming the earth, The green- house effect occurs naturally and helps keep the earth warm enough to sup- port life. However, the concern sur- rounding the greenhouse effect is that we may be causing the natural green- population growth and growth in miles driven. Over the past 25 years, this region has experienced a healthy 3.7 percent average annual rate of population growth.

I i ~ >, , Signatures, Study and Stultification At the Yelm Middle School on October 21- the closest' school to LASCO-where the gym teacher says that he has never seen so many students acting as if high on inhalants, 100 other people gathered in the name of clean air in Yelm. Helen Frost, the volunteer coordinator forYFCA, continued her ongoing efforts to col- lect signatures to be presented to the city of Yelm during a council meeting scheduled for November 12. Before the meeting was held, Frost says that 20 people had been going door to door in Yelm, several stores had petitions available and the group planned to collect sig- natures outside the local'supermarket later in the month. On November 5, OAPCA released findings ' of a study it conducted between August and October on styrene levels in Yelm. Because the agency "occasionally" receives complaints from Yelm residents about the smell from the plastics plants, it decided to determine what levels Yelm residents were exposed to during any given 24- hour period. According to the study, the amount of styrene in the air is beiow health,risk levels. The lowest acceptable level for styrene is 1,000 micrograms per cubic meter (ug/m3) of air, although the acceptable level is much lower for small children. OAPCA points out that this level is only used as a screening level, support- ed by previous toxicology studies. "We looked for warm, stagnant days and tried to capture the worst-case conditions or scenario in Yelm," says OAPCA air quality spe' cialist Chris Drechsel, who oversaw the limited scope study The ag~ncy chose late summer and early fall to conduct the study, because says Dreschsel, complaints from Yelm peak at that time. ~ The levels in Yelm were collected at eight different sights, and only one of them, located just outside the LASCO plant-nearest the middle school-reached a hazardous level. 913 ug/m3 The other sights ranged from zero to 95 7 ug/m3 The sites were chosen based on the number of complaints, past meteorological data, recent modeling of the area, and security issues.

"A poilu, tant does not have to be shown to be carcino- genic to still be harmful to one's overall health," wrote Stromberg. Even Chris Drechsel admits the study was incomplete and that it would've been appropri~ ate to have conducted a year,round study, but because of money and technology issues, it would have been too difficult. "For the extent of the study we were able to undertake, OAPCA is relatively pleased with a clearer pic- ture of what is occurring in Yelm," he says. On November 12, YFCA members, high school students and other interested parties crowded into the Yelm City Council Chambers to deliver nearly 2,000 community signatures and their demands to city hall. Residents filled the chamber's seating area, stood in the aisles and sat on the floor. King,TV set up cameras to record the proceedings. More than half of the signatures submitted were collected in just two days in front of the local supermarket, says Frost. The petition statement read, "I as a resident/concerned per- son of this community of Yelm will not tolerate this increase in toxic emissions. In addition, I demand that you proceed to take appropriate steps to eliminate all toxic emissions in the air ofYelm." YFCA hoped that the city would allow an open forum so that concerned members of the community could communicate their concerns. But, according to Mayor Kathy Wolf and City Administrator Shelley Badger, "The city had already taken all appropriate steps in the matter." According to the state's environmental policy, the city ofYelm acts as the lead agency in any environmental issue dealing with a pol- luter within its city limits. But, also according to the policy, the lead agency has the right to defer responsibility onto another agency with more expertise. In this case, Yelm had deferred its responsibility and oversight of the plants emissions to,OAPCA, effect!;vely making it the lead agency Since OAPCA and the Pollution Control Board were already handling Callihan's and Klapp's appeals, the city claimed it could do nothing with the citizen's signatures and would- n't comment on the matter while the appeals were still pending. On the advice of counsel, the city said it couldn't even offer a public forum on the issue. Letter Wars On November 20, .199T-the day of the first hearing between Klapp, Callihan and OAPCA-a letter from John 0 Snyder, deputy director of the Styrene Information and TACOMA. MUSEUM' Come see-who's hanging! Free every Third Thursday ~- I .J Research Center, appeared in the Nisqually Valley News. "It is very unlikely the citizens of Yelm are exposed to potentially dangerous lev- els of styrene," wrote Snyder, whose Washington, D C.-based group conducts indus- try,funded research. "The amount of emissions from a ma,nufacturing plant cannot be equated to environmental exposures. .Beyond the fence line of a plant, styrene levels in the air is very small. The Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority survey showed that levels in Yelm were within acceptable limits." Synder reduced citizen complaints of funny oQ.ors and dizziness to a mere "nuisance," try' ing to allay fears by remarking that "the odor of styrene in the air does not equate to an expo- sure or health-effect concern." In the following week's paper, Murray Stromberg replied, "I was highly amused to read the letter from John Snyder. Why is it necessary for a Washington DC. 'authority' to involve himself in a local issue of clean air unless there is a real or perceived threat to someone he represents?" Stromberg's suspicions were reiterated by another letter from Kellie M. Peterson. "The purpose of Mr. Snyder's letter was to quell fears of the people in Yelm over the styrene emissions increase at Amtech," wrote Peterson. "The people in Yelm do not need to rely on industry studies to determine the harm caused by the toxic styrene emissions. Many Yelm residents have reported headaches, nausea and dizziness after being exposed to the styrene levels currently allowed. We, as parents, are concerned with our children's health, as they are the most vuinerable members of our com- munity" A Bureaucratic Bolt 01 Lightning On December 15, OAPCA delivered a notice of emissions violations to the plastics industry in Yelm. By December 5, the agency had received a total of seven formal complaints- filled out on the!right form at the right time- concerning the smell of styrene in the air. Once OAPCA receives five fonnal complaints, it must review the steps a pollution source takes to control its emissions and may force them to use "reasonably available technology" Amtech was cited for exceeding the percent- age of styrene allowed in their resin (waste dis- charged into the air). If the company didn't comply with the order to reduce the amount of styrene from 43 percent to 35 percent within 30 days, OAPCA could assess fines. LASCO was ordered to raise the height of their exhaust stacks to "promote reasonable dis- persion of air pollution or avoid down wash sit, Q uations." At the time of citation, LASCO had one month either to appeal the decision or come up with a schedule to rectify the situation. Under the schedule the company set up, it has until August 1, 1998 to apply reasonable tech- nology to its plant, or raise the height of its exhaust stacks, On January 8, Amtech representatives finally met with representatives ofYFCA before a mediator. Amtech won.its increase in yearly styrene emissions from 18.5 tons to 99 tons, while YFCA came away with assurances that communications will be open between the com, munity and Yelm's plastics industry According to the mediation agreement, Amtech must' set up a box outside their offices where people have access to complaint forms, as well as dis- closing its air emission records to YFCA. Caliihan says Amtech's decision to attend the mediation session without its lawyers reassures her the company has good intentions. And, she insists, both parties walked away with a win, "We got more this way than we would have with the appeal." Commenting on the decision, Amtech gener- al manager Richard Janny says that if there had been more communication between the industry and the community the entire controversy might have been avoided. Callihan says that although they have settled, YFCA isn't going away. "We're watching now," she says. Unofficial Hostility But all is not quiet or settled in The Pride of the Prairie. As set forth in the agreement, Amtech also met with YFCA on February 12 at the Yelm High School library to discuss air quality in Yelm. The folks who attended this meeting took out their frustrations over the mediation settlement on city council members, Amtech and YFCA representatives and each other. Bruce Smith, the man who nearly faint- ed in a Yelm parking lot, cornered a city coun- cil member and called him "stupid." LASCO representatives also attended, but didn't make any speeches. Instead, they just sat quietly through the entire meeting, not even flinching when a woman asked them how they feel about killing her. The hostility level toward the plastics compa- nies has reached the breaking point. Three weeks ago it boiled over into an act of vandal- ism. On one large plate glass window at LASCO's company offices, vandals painted "LEAVE" in black spray paint. Another win- dow was shattered. A note found on the scene, ironically wrapped in a styrene container, read, "We, the concerned citizens ofYelm, would appreciate you not destroying the air we breathe. Thank you."

A message held by plastic wrap to the rock was ad- dre~sed to the styrene-pro- ducmg plant. It said. "We, the concerned citizens of Yelm would appreciate you not de~ stroying the air we breathe. Thank you," Yelm police Cmdr, Brian Asmus said, The word "leave" was s{?ray-painted on an adjoining wmdow at the office building at 801 NP Road, Asmus said, Police were alerted to the crime at about 10'50 p.m. Wednesday by someone who drove by and noticed the bro- ken window, he said. No damage estimate was available, and police did not have any witnesses or sus- pects. LASCO is one of two fiber- glass-producing plants in Yelm that have drawn fire from residents for emissions of styrene, a byproduct of pla-s: tic production. The Yelm for Clean Air group and Amtech earlier this month settled an appeal of an Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority ruling that let Amtech increase styrene emissions at its plant to 99 tons per year, up from 18,5 tons. LASCO is allowed to emit up to 249 tons per year. However, LASCO and the Amtech Corp were cited by the authority in December af- ter odor complaints from Yelm-area residents. LASCO plant manager I\.evin Mullen said the vandal- i$m was "obviously directed at the odor." "They don't want LASCO in town," he said. "They want to sh,ut our operation down and for us to leave." ^ The oathware plant pro- vides 180 jobs as well as tax revenue to Yelm, he said, In response to the pollution c~tation, the company has gIVen air-quality officials a plan for studying how LASCO's emissions are dis- persed in the area, The company is waiting for approval from the authority to conduct the study, Mullen said. Linda Tarr is the Communities editor She can be reached at 754-5422. " FRIDAY JANUARY 30, 1998 ..........~". :.i2Jn~ Yelm For Clean Air makes progress was issued a Notice of Violation December 10 by the Olympic Air 1 Pollution Control Authority for failure to provide reasonably avail- able control technology for control of odor-bearing gases. Five formal complaints triggered this phase of OAPCA's odor enforcement policy "Amtech is smaller, makes less money and has better control tech- nology than LASCO," said Nancy Callihan a member of Yelm For Clean Air. She went on to update the six community members who attended the group's January 15 meeting at Yelm Middle School on the group's recent activities. Callihan explained that LASCO, the bathware manufacturing com- I pany located on NP Road in Yelm, to discuss air quality concerns in tJ I Yelmarea. , The company also agreed make an air quality complaint for ayailable to residents and agreed gIVe Yelm for Clean Air officials [ ces.s t? monthly and quarterly ( . emISSIOns records maintained I the downtown plant.

Now that LASCO has )een cited, they hope OAPCA will :onduct a public hearing affording hem the opportunity to confront ~ASCO, the ~ompany they con- .ider to be the major styrene pol- uter in the area. The six community members ent their ears and offered their :ommitment to be vigilant in their ~fforts to report the styrene fumes hey feel are threatening to their lealth. The rest of the meeting provided a positive update on the group's appeal process involving the Pol- lution Control Hearings Board and concentrated on OAPCA's com- plaint process. Three of the four Yelm For Clean Air members, Nancy Callihan, Helen Frost and Rick Roberts led the meeting. Representatives from Amtech and Yelm For Clean Air have been working towards a resolution be- fore the March 5 hearing date with the Pollution Control Hearing Board. They attended a full-day mediation session on January 8. "Because we're still in media- tion I can't give any details, but I can say it's positive.

Though Amtech started with custom or- ders, it soon began producing its own pro- prietary products - products now sold 'through a country-wide network of deal. ers. "Since our mission is to be the best solu. tion for our customer needs, we can pro- vide value engineering and value-added manufacturing procedures to help satisfy our customer needs," Bob Jones, director military marketing said. But high long-term costs and slow growth in the custom-based business is prompting Amtech to lean more toward proprietary business. Even then it would like to retain the current customer base, Clarke said. "Our long-term plan is to become 60 percent proprietary and 40 percent cus. tom; Clarke said. Currently 30 percent of the company's revenue comes from propri- etary business. Amtech is in the process of acquiring a spa manufacturing company, but Clarke said that he did not want to name the com. pany at this stage. Currently Amtech produces Lavtec seamlesS bathroom modules that are sold to hotels, residential and marine ship- building companies, and Humvee Helmet Hardtops that are used for vehicles, espe- cially by the military. Sonoma Spas, an ear- ly acquisition, is also among its proprietary products. Competition tough But competition is tough. says Clarke, "We are constantly looking at new process- es that are cost-effective and price<:ompeti- live in the market" Expanding its market is in the cards for Amtech. Yelm may be far in the outback for some (it's on Highway 510 southeast of Olympia), and its claim to fame has been ].Z. Knight's much-publicized school of en. lightenment But not much is known about Yelm be- ing a Free Trade Zone. Companies in this zone are exempt from paying any tariffs on products they import into and export out See AMTECH, Page 34A Think big. That's what Yelm-based Amtech Corp. does nowadays since it dis- covered that a faster and belter way to grow is to take on high-volume cus- tomers. Amtech, which makes custom fiber. glass and vacuum-formed parts, has been shying away from orders of less than $500,000, The strategy seems to have worked. Amtech has lined up customers such as The Boeing Co" Redmond-based Genie In- dustries, Harmon ]BL Speakers and even the U.S. Department of Defense. Boeing buys fiberglass sink decks that fit inside the bathrooms of aircraft while lBL gets its fiberglass covers for its theater speakers from Amtech. Amtech also produces fiberglass covers that form the hard top for military vehi- cles. The fiberglass is in demand because it is lighter in weight than metal, is durable, lasts longer and does not cor rode. "Volume easily gives a customer a belter price and it is cost-effective; Dick Clarke, president and CEO of the company said. The company's revenues increased by 177 percent between 1994 and 1996. Established in 1987 Amtech did not have the heavyweight customers until its sixth and seventh year of operation. The turning point came when it got its ISO 9001 quality certificate. "ISO 9001 will help us to break ahead from competition; Clarke said. "It pro- vided an avenue to deal with Boeing and the federal government" Now Amtech is hoping to achieve sales of $10 million in 1997 a far cry from its $1 million figure in 1992. Clarke, along with two other partners, Chauncey Lufkin and Donald,Leutholb, started Amtech with an initial investment' of $150,000. The three had 90 years of combined experience in the distribution and manufacturing of fiberglass and plastic products. First order Clarke's first order, when he developed Lavtec (a proprietary product owned by him) in 1979, came from Tacoma Boat Co. for refurbishing a freighter ship and re- placing its shower stalls.

AMTECH Amtech, with 90 employees, contributes significantly to the Yelm economy, Jones said, "like all manufacturing companies, the company creates a multiplier effect of creating 2.5 more jobs for each job that it creates," he said. The company's long term objective is to increase its sales 25 percent annually and increase employment by 10 percent, and also to reduce its emission levels which are already well below the legal standards, Jones said, An initial public offering is in the works, plans for which are being drawn, "I honestly think you can't be a good CEO if you do not have a vision. Without one, you will not last long." Clarke said. FROM PAGE 19A of the zone. "We feel it is really important to go to the international market and it is potential- ly part of our future," Clarke said who chose Yelm since one of his partners al- ready owned properly there. The cily, according to Amtech's Jones, who is also the president of the Yelm Chamber of Commerce, has been support- ive through the years. "Yelm is looking for more business and light industries to revi- talize the economic part of the communi- ty," he said.

ThIS mcrease, from 18 5 tpy to 99 tpy, IS to be added to an already heaVIly styrene-laden aIr As you read over the mfonnatlOn packets we gave you m the past two weeks, you probably noted that the nelghbonng Lasco plant IS allowed to emIt 249 tons of styrene per year! ThIS bnngs the "Pnde ofthe Prame's" aIr gral1d, styrene total to 348 TONS per year!!! Mayor Wolf told us on the phone and m the cIty's press release of last week that the cIty's support of OAPCA's deCISIOn to allow thIS mcrease of styrene emIssIons was a "ROUTINE approval" and that the CIty had "no expertlse--no sClenhfic ~xpertlse" on the matter We were told It IS "out of the hands" of the CIty . We, respectfully submIt these I ,926 sIgnatures whIch say"} as a reSIdent/concerned person of thIS community ofYelm will not tolerate thIS mcrease of tOXIC emISSIons. In addItIOn, I demand that you proceed to take the appropnate steps to ehmmate all tOXIC emISSIons m the aIr of Yelm" CopIes of these petItIOns are bemg sent to OAPCA, EP A, W AToxIc CoahtlOn, County CommISSIOners, State RepresentatIves, and the governor ofWA, Gov Gary Locke These sIgnatures were collected over the past three weeks m many locatIOns and events mdudmg, the Yelm Homecommg Football Game, a parent's meetmg for graduatmg semors, door to door m neIghborhoods near or m the au path of Amtech and Lasco, QFC and other Yelm bus messes, therefore represent a very broad spectrumtf our community The sheer number of these sIgnatures show that thIS IS not a routme matter, nor should It be treated as one; that support, by thIS governing body, for thIS approval was m error because the people who SIgned these petItIOns can attest to the fact that the OAPCA regulations ARE bemg VIOlated. We pomt to two sectIOns of regulation I, 10 partIcular, sec 9.11 (c) whIch was 10 your packet. It reads "No person shall cause or allow the emission or generation of any odor from any source which unreasonably interferes with another person's use and enioyment of their property." Is It reasonable for these people to have to close theu Windows on a hot day, postpone a pICniC 10 theu yard, or call their chIldren mSlde until the smell passes? The other sectIOn that IS bemg VIOlated IS sec 923 reads" No person shall cause or allow the emission of an air contaminant or water vapor, including an air contaminant whose emission is not otherwise prohibited by this regulation, if the air contaminant or water vapor causes detriment to the health, safety, or welfare of any person, or cause damage to property or business". Should It be routme for these people to get headaches or nausea from smelhng the styrene? The people represented here are not laboratory specnnens, nor are they "crash test dummIes" They are your neighbors who have complamts about the styrene emISSIons 10 Yelm but those complaints have not been conSIdered. These sIgnatures echo SImilar complaints from 1995 In 1994-95 a CItIzens' group raised the styrene em1ss10ns Issue At that time, OAPCA's deliberattons were over Amtech's request to mcrease styrene emlSS10ns from 9 to only 18 5 tpy Mmutes from a June 1995 OAPCA meet10g state "The staff had ong1Oally recommended the expanslOn, but after recelv10g several letters of concern regardmg the odor 1mpact, and after consultmg wIth legal staff, OApCA feels that the company [Amtech] WIll be in violation of the odor reg. 1 sec. 9.] 1 So therefore OAPCA reverses Its recommendatIOn and feels strongly that this application be DENIED." (EmphaSIS added.) Several letters was a1l1t took to be 10 v10latlon of sec 9 11 Later that year that year the OAPCA board 19nored the staff recommendatIOn and gave approval of the mcrease That 10crease was only from 9 to 18 tpy Now Amtech has been granted an 10crease to 99typ, lOX the 1995 emISS10n figure. We ask you. WHAT IS GOING ON ? Why are these regulatIons be10g 19nored and tOXIC styrene bemg allowed to be em1tted 1Oto the center ofYelm. a few hundred feet from the M1ddle School where hundreds of chlldren work and play, and a few hundred yards tI-om Ft. Stevens elementary school w1th hundreds more ch1ldren. HOW MUCH LONGER WILL THIS SITUATION RECEIVE RUBBER STAMP APPROVAL??? HOW MUCH LONGER WILL THE BUCK BE PASSED??? HOW MANY MORE TIMES WILL THIS CITY SUPPORT THE fNCREASE OF TOXIC EMISSIONS INTO THE HEART OF OUR CITY AND INTO THE LUNGS AND BODlES OF OUR MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITY MEMBERS-- OUR CHILDREN AND OUR ELDERLY??? Honorable Mayor Wolf, Shelly Badger and C1ty Council members-Let these 1,926 s1gnatures, from a broad cross-section ofYelm's population, serve as a wake-up call. A wake-up call that urges you to wake up to the complete facts ofth1s matter, to the senousness of thIS matter, not only for the people of thIS town, but also for the future of the growth and development ofth1s town. We urge you to take command by- I Estabhshmg a task force (w1th 1Odustry, c1ttzen, and cIty representat1ves) to momtor and 1m prove the pollutlOn condItIOns m Yelm, work1Og toward 0 emISSlOns. 2 Seek10g all ava11able avenues for fundmg, (mdustry, federal, state) to ehm10ate th1s pollutIOn problem m Yelm. 3 Allocatmg the funds to begm both short and long term, independent studIes oflocal res1dents 10 relatlOnshlp to any occurrence ofs1gmficant harm and damage to all aspects oftheu health, enVlronment and property 4 Assuring the people of Yelm that you will never again treat this air pollution Issue as a routine matter and you wIll never let 1t be "'out of your hands" agam.

It IS my opIllion that It would not be appropnate for the CIty Council of the CIty of Yelm to hold a pubhc heanng regardmg the applIcatIOn by Amtech. EXlstmg law would reqUIre the applIcatIOn of Amtech to be consIdered under current regulatIOns That consIderatIOn IS ongmally the responsibilIty of the OlympIc Au PollutIOn Control Authonty, subject to appeal to the Washmgton State PollutIon Control Heanngs Board and further appeal to the Courts of the State ofWashmgton. Tills IS a quasl JudICial proceedmg wIth the responsibilIty for decIsIon placed m regulatory bodIes separate and apart from the CIty of Yelm. It would be mappropnate for the CIty of Yelm to mterfere or attempt to Influence thIS process by conductmg a publIc heanng while the appeal IS pendmg.

November 21, 1997 Fiona Reeves, Editor Nisqually Valley News PO Box 567 Yelm, Washington 98597 Dear Fiona, Isn't the presence of a Channel Five fIlm crew at the Nov 12th City Council meeting worthy of a front page story? Or the fact that the chambers were filled to overflowing? Or 1,900 Yelmites voting their opposition to the Bathtub Boys via a Yelm For Clean Air petition? By placing your City Council's Nov 12th meeting piece on page 3 instead of page 1 in your current issue, where you led with a story of a hot-headed loudmouth popping off in Roy, shows that you are missing the Big Story The story is not styrene. Yelm is the story, or rather the changes that are afoot in town. Yehn For Clean AIr is the current manifestation of the shift that is takmg place in this town and this grassroots movement shows that from now on the grass in Yelm is going to be a new kind of green, one that is deeper, more organic and healthier Styrene is the first of several major issues to be addressed, others consist of how decisions are made in this town and by whom. Yehn is going to be a very different place in the next year or two or three. Here are my projections for this change. The first change is in the process of happening: I understand that the city's attorney has announced his resignation due to the fact that his law firm also represents Amtech. My, my, how come they never saw a conflict of interest before Yehn For Clean Air put a little heat to thel! feet? Business-as-usual, as defmed by this kind of buddy-buddy behavlOr IS now offiCially fimshed in Yelm. Our city's leaders soon will be new ones, people who do not defer to "experts" on matters of pubhc health and will take the time to become experts themselves. Perhaps the current ones will be lucky to be just out of office and not in pri~on for there is talk on the street in this town of legal action and impeachment of our pohticalleadership on the grounds that their lack of self- education is a dereliction of duty One of the speakers at the Council meeting T'~b;J 1..: . - . "pvJ.LvJ. -nl) L~ l" q."J~ .....A..iH.f.ll ~Ft?t dl~ i~ tl ,U:g1.1 l.. I_uti, spoke of the legal responsibilities of the town leaders to maintain optimum air quality which implies that LASCO')(has ~ to put those 2.25 million dollar scrubbers into its plant and Amtech likewise, anet if the tO~lwIershiP doesn't insist on that then they may be criminally liable. <But ~1B. [J~.:.J. r :.1' yo seem to be following-up on whatever angle that speaker was taking nor are you asking this legal estion in the public domain. Why not? Next, LASCO and Amtech will be gone. Or they will be conducting business in a radically different way, one of active partnership with their neighbors. Zero styrene emissions will be one certainty The detaIls of zero emisslOns, such as maintenance of the scrubbers, on-going momtonng of the emisslOns, and follow-up health surveys for those of us who have been livmg with the poison for years will be both costly and revealing. We will know if the Bathtub Boys and our pohtIcalleaders will put their money where theIr mouths soon wIll be. Another change is the new politicalleaderslnp reviewing our educational system and strengtherill'lG- educatIon outside of itS classrooms, such as home schooling, mternships and mentoring Y programs, and work-study programs. Our language Will change. The word "safe" Will never be used again m Y e~ for the majority of people in this town will recognize that the concept of safety, as in "total safety"- a certainty that nothmg is going to hurt anyone, is gone. New words will be illvented to reflect the realization of our current environmental reality "Kindasafe" is my personal favorite, as ill "kindasafe" levels of styrene emissIOns, but others may prefer "relatlVesafety" or "relsafe", or "statisticalsafety" or "statsafe" There will probably be others attempts to defme our new maturity and its awareness of accelerating rates of cancer and degenerative diseases, to whit, the one-percent per annum illcrease in skin cancer and the current rate of one ill eight for breast cancer, up from one in twenty not too many years ago. (I am currently burying one fortysomething-peer-per-month due to cancer Breast cancer metastasizing into liver cancer seems to be the clmical pathway these days. ) Yelm is not alone in these kinds of issues. Every town, USA has a LASCO, or a Hanford or aerial pestiCide spraying or smog or poisoned water So for the styrene industry to say that they aren't making us any sicker than any other town is bogus. Somebody is making their neighbors sick in some way in every town in our country And I admit that I am one of those somebodies. I drive a car and burn wood for heat. I put lots of C02, ground-level ozone and sulfuric acids into the aIr Someday that will change, too. Tlns styrene affaIr is not my fIrst venture into environmental politics. For eight years I was the owner of the leadmg commercial beachcleaning operatIOn m New York, and a participant in the federal Long Island Sound Study I was there in 1988 when the syringes and medical wastes washed up and shut down a summer In the aftermath of that event I learned how the EP A and state envIronmental agencies are shaped by politIcal forces. I saw cover-ups and I stynued one of them. I've learned how big business, really big business works to misshapen regulations designed to protect people. I saw how public health budgets are contorted so inadequate information on health concerns, especially via inadequate laboratory testing, allows big money to keep on rolling. I thmk that's why styrene is considered safe. The studies to show it's not have been sabotaged I believe by the styrene industry through back door political pressuring. I saw it happen on the beach, why not with the plastIc guys. For my proof I say where are the long-term effect studies on neurological disorders since styrene is a known neurotoxin. Where are the studies to move styrene's position as a possible carcinogen and styrene oxide as a probable one, to certified? As for the responsiveness of our local public health agenCies, how come there is no one in authority that I can receive redress from the intense and debilitating nausea I get when I smell styrene? Olympia Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA) says my demographics don't fit their mandates. Who and what turned this agency mto a bunch of wnnps? And why does our political leadership defer to these few "experts" at OAPCA? Why not defer to the experts at the federal EP A who call for a zero tolerance for any carcinogen. Why not for that matter, refer to me?, I'm an environmental expert: Styrene is straightfOlward. It stinks, it makes people sick and its gotta go. - .. Yelm For Clean Air and the people who are attracted to this movement are dynamic, skilled and cOmmItted. We are joining with others, such as the Washington Toxic CoalitIOn to change our home and our country The Yelm story can very well be this nation's defIning moment of ' polItical and environmental activism in our times. What we do here and how we do it may oe the template of how we live on tlns planet for a very long time. ~~T;~Y7~~1::t~~~~a~t:i::;irn~'~t;;~~ "" Bruce A.

I feel that the Valm for Clean Air group may be doing the community a dissetvice by inflating fears over their chemica! of concern - styrene -- based on outdated or incorrect information. It is very unlikely ';he citizens ofYelm €Ire exposed t<;> potentially dangerous levels of styrone The amount of emissions from a manufacturtng plant (the issue at hand) cannot be equated to environmental exposures Styrene has a very short half-life. Beyond the fence-line of a plant, styrene levels in the air are extremely small; vasijy below any exposure levels at whk:h health effE:!G~ might be :seen. The Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority survey showed that levels in Yelm were within acceptable limits. The Taxies Release Inventory, ~uently cited by Yelm for Clean Air, specifically states that "release estimates (emissions) alone are not sufficient Xl determine exposure or to calculate potential adverse effects on human health and the environment. Despite Yell1 for Clean Air's refere"lces, the US Environmental Protection Agency has not formally cfassilled styrene as a carcinogen. EPA's listing of styrene as a carcinogen in the Toxles Release Inventory is a reference 10 a 1987 decision by the Intem~tion31 Agency for Research on Cancer ThIs was not a comprehens:ve risk assessment, did not consider exposure and potency, and lacks the large amount of new data developed since that time A 1994 report by the Canadian Government, on the other hand, concluded styrene poses no cancer :hreat to humans UI Gillilllals at levels found in the environment, as did a current draft risk assessment prepared by the United Kingdom for the European Union. Two large and comprehensive epidemiology studies ot WOfl(flrs in composites and reinforced plastIcs facilities - such as Amtech and Lasco - showed no increase in cancer or any other health effects from styrene exposure.

SIRe also monitors the regulatory treatment of styrene, and works closely with regulators to provide them with the most current technical data to ensure a~~Lv~~ldLe regulation of stYl"ene In reviewing some of the reterence intormation you include on your web site, I am concerned that much of it is inaccul"ate or outdated As a result of this, I am further wOl"ried that your principle message ~~ that proposed ~ncreases of styrene emissions could lead to healtb effects concerns -- has not been based on valid information. particularly in the case o~ styrene, which rapidly breaks down in the air, it is vitally important to understand that one cannot suggest that the amount of styrene emitted from a facility Can be equated to an increased health threat. Styrene decomposes so quickly that the resulting ambient environmental exposures are extremely small For example, monitoring data from all across the State of California show that the average ambient concentration in urban industrial areas is only 1 part per BILLION. In many instances, readings for styrene at those monitoring sites are below detection. AS you note in your web page, OSHA currently has a worker exposure level of 50 parts per MILLION for an a-hour day. Accordingly, it is not accurate to assume that an increa~~ 1n ~ p'~nt's emission level would translate to an increase in environmental exposure levels to a point which would warrant concern for health effects Obviously, styrene industry workers are exposed at levels which are orders of magnitude higher than those to which the public is exposed Yet very impo~tantly ~- the mo~t comprehensive and long-rp.~r.hing epidemiology studies in styrene workers (totaling over 60,000 people, and as far back as 1947) have NOT shown that exposure to styrene has cau~ed an inC~Cu3e in canoeJ;" or anl' OTHER long~te~m health effe~t While some acute neurological effects such as dizziness may result from high occupational exposure levels (especially above 100 parts per million), th~~e are NO data whioh cuggeot ~ny possibl~ hQalth effect~ resulting from exposure to styrene at the levels to which the citizens of Yelm are exposed Although your web page suggests that EPA has classified styrene as a carcinogen, in reality the agency has NOT formally classified styrene Ind~~d, we have ju~t been ~dviccd th~t ctyrene has bggn propo~ed for ~" TOT~ yic~ ~~~PR~mAnP in 199A IRIS nurrentlv notes that styrene's NOV-18-1997 13 04 FROM SPI-SIRC TO 13604584348 P 05/05 classification is unde~ review The EPA's reference to Bty~ene as a carcinogen in the Taxies Release rnven~ory is based on their use of the reference~ which can be cited under the a.:u!;Q.ro.

An in-process draft ~isk assessment by the united Kingdom, for the European Union, concludes the same thing Styrene does have a very distinctive odor But its detectable odor threshold is at ext~emely small concentrations. concentrations vastLy below any levels of potential health effects. While in some cases the odor may carry to the fence-line of a facility, it should not be consiqered an indicator of high environmental exposure Accordingly, I would urge that you ensure that your organization is using the most current and accurate data about the potential health effects of styrene, about the true environmental fate of styrene, and abq~t its current regulatory status I would also urge that you share this information with your constituents -- particularly regarding the very rapid nature of styrene's decomposition in air, and the lack of health effects at exposure levels found in the environment. The citizens of Yelm will have a more balanced view of the true potential health effects of styrene.

WASHINGTON Yelm, Washmgton 98597 (360) 458-3244 PRESS RELEASE BY CITY OF YELM November 6, 1997 F or Immediate Release There has been much information distributed recently by a grassroots organization YELM FOR CLEAN AIR which discusses their concerns over a recent approval by the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA) to increase styrene emissions for a local manufacturing company, Amtech. There has been a request from the organization to present a petition to the City Council at their November 12, 1997 regular council meetmg. This item has been placed on the agenda and a designated representative will be given a brief opportumty to present the petition and concerns. The Amtech emission increase proposal does not include any expansion or remodeling of the facility, which would require a City of Yelm permit. An increase in styrene emissions is an area in which the City has no scientific expertise. Therefore on May 27, 1997 the City requested OAPCA be the lead agency for the envuorimental review The City felt OAPCA's guidance was needed to determine if safe levels of emissions would be maintained in accordance wIth state and federal regulations. The technical studies and recommendations, including one from the State Department of Health Toxicologist, fewer complamts about odor and Amtech's willingness to comply with air pollution control and local standards made our support-oftheuproposal routine. The Amtech emission increase request was subsequently approved by the OAPCA Board. The matter was appealed by individuals from the YELM BOR CLEAN AIR organization and is presently awaiting a Hearing before the State Pollution Control Heanngs Board. It is the position of the City of Yelm that the sItuation is "out of our hands" We gave out support based upon existing regulations. We have discussed the matter with legal Counsel and it is not appropriate for the City of Yelm to hold a Hearing on the matter nor take further action while it is under appeal to the State Pollution Control Hearings Board.

Gary Locke Will be pressured to spend state surplus NOVEMBER 8, 1997 ' ~~~~~g~~~WS air IS safe, but odorous By Mindy Chambers The Olympian As Gov Gary Locke pre- pares to ask lawmakers to re- vise the state budget, interest groups are clamoring for a piece of a projected $823 mil- lion state surplus. I But in the Office of Finan- cial Management, the state's budget office, the word is cau- tion. Businesses want tax breaks Rural communities want tourism promotion money and tax exemptions so businesses can open or ex- pand plants. The Department of Social and Health Services might need more money to serve senior citizens and the dis- abled. If several puget Sound salmon species are endan- gered, the state will have to pony up money to pay for stream restoration and other salmon-savers, or risk having the federal government insti- tute its own salmon restora- tion plan. There is some talk of shift- ing general fund money to pay for improvements to the state's roads and bridges. By law, Locke must submit this year's proposal for revi- sions - known as a supple- mental budget request - by Dec. 23. The supplemental budget is used to respond to situations that have cropped up since the passage of a two-year spending plan in Januarys of odd-numbered years. "The message is really clear as this debate occurs about how to spend this huge surplus," said OFM Director Dick Thompson of the possi- ble 10Qg-term effects of tax cuts and other spending.

But that has com- plications." Locke's philosophy and that of many lawmakers is that the state needs a healthy surplus so that when the economy slows down and tax collec- tions lag, it can pay for state services without raising taxes. State spending is limited by Initiative 60l. Right now, the state has i about $150 million to play with. That is how much state spending is below the $19.235 billion limit. Money the state collects over the limit goes into an emergency reserve fund that can be tapped only by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature. \1 I ~ j I \'1-') (\ 'l t' 0\ l~ - -- ~ -'_ '1.>- v J.l ~ - , I I I I I I I , .uass., Ilrm made a contnou- tion to the DNC or to Gore family projects, their contract was ex- tend.ed by several million dollars.

Their job is to be sure that whatever gets taught is based in scientific fact, they say. That's fine, legislative critics as- sert, but the department is going too far and shutting out many applicants who find the rules too burdensome. "The Health Department is defi- nitely putting its own spin on the no connection to-tIie contract. Grumbly described Molten Metal melted steel bath technology as a promising waste treatment. Gerald Boyd, the Energy Depart- ment's deputy assistant secretary The group also has sought an au- dience with the Yelm City Council at its 7 p.m. meeting Wednesday. But Yelm Mayor Kathy Wolfsaid Thursday that just one representa- tive of the group will be allowed a five-minute statement at the coun- cil meeting. A public forum or hearing will not be allowed, she said. "We have discussed the matter with legal counsel and it is not ap- propriate for the city to hold a hear- ing on the matter nor take further action while it is under appeal to the state Pollution Control Hearings Board," she said in a ,prepared statement. The residents group has labeled the current styrene emissions tinac- federal law," contends Rep. Jim Kastama, D-Puyallup, a member of a joint legislative oversight commit- tee formed to make sure the depart- mept does its job. ' Kastama on Friday said the de- partment is putting too many vague conditions in its rules for deciding who among applicants will qualify for the federal money, conditions not permitted by the federal law That makes it too hard for many groups even to apply, he said. To the contrary, said Greg Smith, one of the department's lobbyists to the Legislature. "I do not believe inflation ~-'ihar'iih~-:;;;'i~';' t;em;;ii~ dous resentment from them about DOE headquarters keeping them out of the loop and then dumping this on them and saying get them more money and do it now." ceptable. Members worry that the chemical could be damaging their health. State Department of Health toxi- cologist Denise Laflamme said her agency is reviewing the recent study. But at first blush, she said, it appears the documented styrene concentrations are below levels that can cause health problems. Short-term exposure to styrene at high concentrations can cause nausea and eye and throat irrita- tion, according to health studies. Long-term exposure can affect the central nervous system and kid- neys. Styrene is listed by the U.S. Envi- ronmental Protection Agency as a possible cancer-causing agent. that the department is putting un- due hardship on anybody. I do be- lieve what the department is doing is to hold this program to the same standards and requirements of other health programs." The issue came to a boil late Thursday during a meeting be- tween the Joint Legislative Over- sight Committee on Abstinence, Ed- ucation and Motivation and Smith's boss, Assistant Health Secretary Maxine Hayes. There has been no indication of when the dispute will be resolved and abstinence teachers selected. . ~[D'Ir~.

Peace noted that it was not an increase in the amount of equlpment; just the emissions. The determination by staff is that the expansion be approved Peace stated that an agenda has been provided by staff regarding speakers for Amtech, the Health Department, and staff. Bob Jones, Director of Military Marketing for Amtech, gave a brief history at Amtech. Be noted that Amtech is an important part of the Yelm conm1unlty Jones explained that Amtech has an environmental responsibility and we look to reduce emission by using reduced emission materials In our production Amtech is looking for alternatives to fiberglass, we are increasing our emphasis on vacuum fanned plastic which has no emissions. Amtech installed a $250,000 emission control system, 43 foot high stacks, and we tlnd It L.a 1)\__ a state of the art ventilation system Amtech uses regrind plastics and alsu uses their own waste plastics. Upon approval from OAPCA staff, An1tech will be in a position to support the city of Yelm's request to have our wate~ system upgraded, and our parking lot resurfaced Jones noted the economiL benefits for the Yelm community. Jones added that with the increase from 18 tons to 99 tons per year Arntech will be able to increase sales, over the next 5-6 years, on a 25% annual basis. This increase would allow us to increase employment by 10% annually We do expect to reduce emissions through uur U9/11J' !l7 12 40 '0'1 200 4!lJ 0:\08 lJ\I'C\ [4J () 04 Minutes - :2 state of the art ventilation system. Mark Goodin, OAPCA Engineer, stated that staff recorunends conditional approval. Goodin explained that Amtech had submitted their application in April of 1997. Amtech is listed as a fiberglass reinforced plastic industry, which means that they use resin to build products. There are two such companies located in Yelm. Goodin, with the aid of a map, showed that Amtech is pretty much centrally located in Yelm. He noted that the other company, Lasco, has the same type of process and emissions. He added that Lasco's potential to emit is 249 tons per year, ~ntech is only asking to increase up to a potential of 99 tons per year Goodin noted that Amtech has demonstrated that their current ventilation. system can handle the increase in production. OAPCA staff has reviewed tne application and coordinated with the state department of health's Harriet Amman and Denise LaFlamme, to review cumulative health implications As stated before, staff recommends conditional approval of Amtech's application The basis for our recommendation is that 1) the application demonstrates that they comply with New Source Regulations; 2) Amtech's application fulfills the state of Washington health reviews in the Washington Air Toxics Regulation, and, 3) after Amtech reaches maximum production, we belleve it is likely that they will comply with general regulations and ambient standards which includes general nuisance regulations, odor regulations, and regulations pertaining to human health and property Goodin added that this statement does not preclude occurrences of notices of violation. It is our position that any source has a potential for an odor violation to occur. In chis case, we do not believe that Amtech odor violations will be recurring [0 a situation where we have a significant problem from Amtech that we cannot resolve with our odor policy. Amtech's current operation is complying with BACT by using molding processes, vacuum formed plastics, low styrene resins, high transfer efficiency, and higher stacks. They spray and apply in approved areas, which we believe has greatly increased the dilution of the pollutants when they exit the facility Amtech has made a commitment in their application to use aqueous cleaners which will reduce the use of acetone. Goodin stated that OAPCA;s technical staff concurs that this is BACT for this type of company. Goodin touched on some of the health levels (ASILs) stating that the modeling done shows that their concentrations are consistent with the ASILs In other words they will be in compliance. However, Goodin added, we didn't stop there. There was concern regarding cumulative impacts being that there are two companies in the area. Goodin showed a slide depicting the cumulative emissions of Lasco and Amtech. One conclusion we came to, Goodin stated, is that the higher results are largely contributed to Lasco's emissions. It was noted that the numbers used were at both Lasco and Amtech's maximum potential to emit (249 and 99 respectively). Foutch asked if the model was done during a typical day or a worst case type day. Kirk Winges, McCaulley, Frick, and Gillman, stated that meteorological data was provided by Department of Ecology The data was from a fall day, which would be the time of year we would see inversions. The last area of focus, Goodin continued, would be compliance with odors. We drew several conclusions. We took a look at odor detection thresholds and we know that we have had odor complaints in the Yelm area. Some people smell it and some people donlt. Everyone has a different response to odors, In fact OfL10'97 12 42 'B'I 200 4fH ti:30il (HI'( ,\ I7lJ 00 ;j Minutes - 3 in the literature that we went through, the odor thresholds are allover the board. OAPCA has developed an odor enforcement policy and even though cheLe is going to be an increase in emissions we feel that we will be able to deal with the odor complaints. Goodin showed a map of complaints which covered about 10 years. The map shows where the complaints are occurring. From our records we have noticed a decline in odor complaints from 1996 to 1997. In 1994 the Yelm styrene study was completed. In 1995 there were 27 complaints, 15 of which were formal In 1996 there was 12 complaints, 1 of which was formal. Arld, so far in 1997 there have been only 3 complaints, and none of them were formal We believe that the decline in complaints is contrlbuted to Lasco's air operating pe~TIit (there has been a decrease in emissions) and k~techls new ventilation system with higher stacks and increased air flow rate Foutch stated that he thought that later on we had planned a styrene study? Goodin stated that it is an option. Foutch asked what the fallout of something like that would be. Foutch noted that his concern is th,:. ratcheting of the approvals which individually seem to fit within tne standards for health and so on. But, what about the cumulative impact Goodin noted that the styrene study which took place in 1994 proved that you could smell the styrene, however there was no significant health impacts Currently, staff is leading up an ambient styrene study. Once we get the results from the ambient studies we can combine the results with the model and see if we should revisit the styrene study, Some discussion followed. Harriet Amman, Senior Toxicologist for Department of Health; stated that the ASIL number is the health standard This number is used to determ~ne lE there might be any kind of health impact. It is based on studies done by EPA to develop what is called a reference concentration. The reference concentration is defined as the concentration that an individual could be exposed to for a lifetime that will have no adverse effect from a health or toxicologic point of view. In this case, for styrene, the studies are human occupational studies. Amman explained that in the studies a lowest oDserved effect level and a no observed effect level (meaning there is nothing happening to the workers at this level) are calculated. The no observed effect level has some safety, or uncertainty, factors applied to it These factors make up for things they may be missing in the data. The reference concentration that came in for Amtech was 30 times below the no observed adverse effect level Amman stated that there are no concentrations that are expected to exceed the ASILs. From a health point of view, she continued, we support the actions of OAPCA. Amman commented on odor thresholds. She noted that each person has a different odor threshold. Amman pointed out char. people have different reactions to odor without any adverse health effects Foutch asked if strictly on health grounds, this could keep ratcheting u~ until it is 30 times what it is likely to be today, we would be condenu1ed to rubber stamping these applications as long as it stays below r.he ASILs. Amman disagreed. She stated there are a lot of factors that could change the conclusions of each application. Public testi~~ny: Gary Beck, Executive Director of Yelm Chamber, stated that Amtech is one of 09/10/97 12 43 '0'1 200 491 O:WS 0:\1><: .\ ~OO(j Minutes 4 the larger employers and they are an important part of our corrillunity Amtech has demonstrated their support through their active participation in the Chamber, the schools, and in many other activities in our city Shelly Badger, City Administrator City of Yelm, stated that she was here on behalf of Mayor Cathy Wolfe and the city council. The city supports staff recommendation for approval of the Amtech proposal with the conditional approval as recommended by staff Badger stated that Amtech has been very proactive in their emission controls and purchasing of alternative technologies to protect the Yelm corrununi ty. Foutch asked if the Yelm city government or the community as a whole, considered what the maximum styrene emissions that the community will tolerate. Badger stated that the work that OAPCA has previously done, and the cumulative look that they are doing and analyzing the new requests are extremely important. We look to that and to OAPCA as our cont:ra{d'ing ~ncy to guide us in that We support any studies that you choose to-do-to help determine the cumulative impacts. We have not established a number that would be the maximum amount, we would look at your studies and any complaints in the future 'Foutch noted that he is becoming more and more uneasy about this situation af it seems to be on "us" mostly. Someday, he continued, we need to have soma sort of joint understanding as to what the community wants in terms o~ limits Burgman stated that it was her understanding, then, that the city of Yelm is not doing any independent studies, but looks to this organization for guidance. Badger stated that this was correct. Tom Bjorgen, Washington Environmental Council, stated that he was appearing on behalf of the council in 9J2..nq_~itionJ-o_the approval of this application. Bj orgen stated that he woura like c-6---point oue Lhat one of the critical legal standards has not been met. More specifically there has been an inadequate demonstration that the standard dealing with styrene emissions has been met He noted that styrene is listed as a TAP (Toxic Air Pollutant), it is a neurotoxin, a suspected carcinogen, and as your staff acknowledges in the preliminary determination, there are studies which suggest damage to reproductive capacities in women. Bjorgen explained that there is nothing benign about styrene and this Board should give it the highest scrutiny He felt that the Board should approve the application, only if there is no question that the standard is met. If, Bjorgen continued, you can show that the ASILs are not being exceeded at this time, then you could approve the application. Th~ ASIL: level for styrp.n~ is '000 ug/m~. The applicant has done modeling whicn'snows Eli:i:s -has Deen meL, but- 1. -feeI~ Bjorgen stated, that there are discrepancies in this position. You will see, in two locations, in your staff's preliminary determination, the statement that the model levels of the styrene near these facilities is close to 1000 ug/m3. In other words, in 1994 (styrene study), the experts are saying that it is close to 1000 .Bjorgen found it hard to believe that if the facilities are this close to the ASILs already, that quintupling the emission level will somehow lead to a reduction of styrene in the atmosphere. Kirk Winges, McCaully, Frick, and Gillman, responding to Bjorgen's conmlents Winges stated that analysis that was done in 1994 (styrene study) was not a 009,10;97 12 45 'O'J 20li HU {i:lOli U\I'C'\ IiJ () (),. Minutes ,- :) measured concentration, only modeled concentrations. The reasons LlJc: concentrations were calculated to be high at that time is that they were one hour concentrations and were not calculated to show the difference between a one hour average and a 24 hour average At that time, Amtech's stacks were 'rery low also. Winges noted that Lasco's concentrations are higher because of the shorter stacks. To conclude, Winges noted that we did do a complete analysis in comparing with the ASILe and the concentrations that we came up with was 130 ug/m3 which is completely consistent with the findings that we had several years ago. Huntingford closed the public hearing. Goodin stated that Amtech has made a substantial amount of improvements whicl1 have improved the concentrations of styrene. Goodin stated that he concurred wi th Winges' statements and noted that we have gone beyond \/lhat the Washington Air Toxics regulations requires. I I ! l ! j 1 I Burgman asked Gentry if there was any legal impacts. Gentry stated that a determination that the Board neeas to make as to whether or not health issues have been addressed. Also that the odor issues have been addressed. You need to decide whether t.he proposal will have an advt=rse effect or be in compliance with the health standards and odor issues Nichols moved that the conditional approval be granted as recommended by staff with the following findings of fact, based on testimony of staff, the health department, and the consultants for the applicant: 1) Amtech' s NOC application provides adequate demonstration of compliance with the Washington Air Toxics Regulation WAC 173-460, 2) The conditions of approval recommended by staff are for purposes uf assuring that pollution controls and prevention measures proposed by ~ntech will be implemented to the extent and level of control stated in che application; 3) The potential for odors from Amtech will increase due to allowable styrene emissions, however, OAPCA' s policy for regulations is structured to identify unreasonable odors appropriate enforcement response; 4) There is a conclusion that the 99 tpy limit is appropriate for &lltech considering physical capacity of equlpment and facilities; and, 5) Regarding cumulative impacts between Amtech and Lasco, the results taken by the study indicate the styrene emissions from both companies in the Yelm area are not likely to result in health impacts, leading to the conclusion that the increase in emissions of styrene and other volatile organiL compounds will not cause or contribute to any violation of an ambient air quality standard and are sufficiently low to protect human health and safety from potential carcinogenic and/or other toxic effects, though the potential for odors will increase. the increase in entorclng odor.- and to apply Huntingford asked if there was any discussion. Nichols added that the laws in this country, in this stcite, and oC this agency, set standards, rules, and regulations. I believe, he contlnued; that when you playa game or in life; there are rules that you follow. You dOD't invent ways to overlook the rules. If we don't like the rules or standards we can change them, but when all the evidence shows that someone has complied with the :rules and regulations and is playing inside the "box", I don't think we have ground one to not approve something like this. Albeit the whole O~/lO/97 12 46 'lS1 206 491 030R 4J (lOll MinuL.es - 6 issue of cumulative effects on the environment is interesting, it ~s a little difficult to go out and extrapolate and gu~ss what might happen with another emission request we donlt have Foutch added that he felt it is important that the local ~avernment needs La look at this situation soon.

'J-\" ~ Public Health Statement Ethylene Oxide ATSDR Publzc Health Statement, December 1990 ThIS Statement was prepared to give you mformatIOn about ethylene oXIde and to emphasIze the human health effects that may result from exposure to It. The EnvIronmental ProtectIOn Agency (EP A) has identified 1,177 sites on ItS National PnontIes LISt (NPL) Ethylene oXIde has not been defimtely identified at any NPL sIte However, It has been tentatIvely IdentIfied at three of these sItes As EP A evaluates more sItes, the number of sItes at which ethylene OXIde IS found may change ThIS mformatIon IS Important for you to know because ethylene OXIde may cause harmful health effects and because these sItes are potential or actual sources of human exposure to ethylene OXIde When a chemIcal IS released from a large area, such as an mdustnal plant, or from a contamer, such as a drum or bottle, It enters the environment as a chemIcal emISSIOn This emISSIOn, which IS also called a release, does not always lead to exposure You can be exposed to a chemIcal only when you come mto contact WIth the chel1l1cal. You may be exposed to It m the enVIronment by breathmg, eating, or dnnkmg substances contammg the chemical or from skm contact WIth It. If you are exposed to a hazardous substance such as ethylene OXIde, several factors WIll determine whether harmful health effects WIll occur and what the type and seventy of those health effects WIll be. These factors mclude the dose (how much), the duratIon (how long), the route or pathway by WhICh you are exposed (breathmg, eatmg, dnnkmg, or skm contact), the other chemIcals to WhICh you are exposed, and your mdIvIdual charactenstIcs such as age, sex, nutntIOnal status, family traIts, lIfe style, and state of health. What is ethylene oxide? Ethylene OXIde (also known as ETO or oXIrane) IS a flammable gas WIth a somewhat sweet odor It dissolves eaSIly m water, alcohol, and most orgamc solvents Ethylene OXIde IS produced m large volumes and IS used to make other chemIcals, espeCially ethylene glycol, a chel1l1cal in antIfreeze and polyester Most ethylene OXIde IS used up m the factones where It IS produced. A very small amount (less than 1 %) IS used to control msects on stored agncultural products, such as nuts and spIces. Ethylene OXIde IS also used m very small amounts In hospItals to stenlize medIcal eqUIpment and supplies When ethylene OXIde IS produced or used, some of the gas IS released to air and water If it IS released mto the air, humIdIty and sunlIght Cduse It to break down wlthm a few days In water, ethylene OXIde will eIther break down or be destroyed by bactena wIthm a few days How might I be exposed to ethylene oxide? You are not lIkely to be exposed to ethylene OXIde In the general enVIronment. In studIes of the au qualIty m http://atsdrl atsdr cde gOY 80S0/ToxProfiles/phs9016 html Page 1 of 3 A TSDR - Public Health Statcmcnt Ethylenc Oxide (1990) 10/25/97 5 29 PM Texas and CalIfornia, no ethylene oXIde was found. There IS also no eVIdence that ethylene oXIde IS commonly found m water Bec.luse of the 11I111ted mformatlon about ethylene oXIde m aIr, water, or soIl at hazardous waste SItes, we do not know how likely It IS that you might be exposed to ethylene oXIde at or near these SItes You may be exposed to ethylene oXIde If you work where It IS produced or used. Health care workers, such as techmcians, nurses, and phYSICIanS m hospItals and clIniCS, may have contact wIth ethylene oxide because It IS used to stenlIze medical eqUIpment and supplIes Smce ethylene oXIde IS used as a fumIgant to spray agncultural products, you may be exposed to tillS substance If you are a farmer or work on a farm where ethylene oxide IS used It is not known If food crops are a source of exposure to ethylene oXIde for the general publIc Ethylene oXIde has been found at levels up to 3.5 parts of ethylene oXIde per one mIllIon parts of food (3 5 ppm) shortly after food has been sprayed with pest I clde that contams It. These levels decrease with time as ethylene oxide evaporates or breaks down mto other substances, and thus lIttle or none may remam when the food IS eaten How can ethylene oxide enter and leave my body? Ethylene oXIde can enter your body when air contammg thIS substance IS breathed mto your lungs. Because ethylene oXIde evaporates very easIly, It IS unlIkely that It remams m or on food or remains dIssolved in water long enough to be eaten or swallowed, although thiS IS not known for certam It IS not known if ethylene OXIde can enter the body through the skm. After a person has been exposed to ethylene OXide, It leaves the body through the unne or feces or by breathmg It out through the lungs ThiS probably occurs very rapidly, perhaps wIthm 2 or 3 days. How can ethylene oxide affect my health? Ethylene OXIde can cause a Wide vanety of harmful health effects m exposed persons. In general, hIgher levels of exposure to thiS chemical wIll cause more severe effects The major effects seen m workers exposed to ethylene OXide at low levels for several months or years are Irritation of the eyes, skIn, and mucous membranes and problems m the functlOnmg of the bram and nerves. At higher levels of exposure to ethylene oxide, which may result from aCCidents or equipment breakdown, the types of effects are simIlar, but they are more severe and harmful There IS also some eVIdence that exposure to ethylene oxide can cause an increased rate of mlscarnages m female workers exposed to ethylene OXide StudIes mammals have shown that breathmg ethylene OXide at high levels can mterfere WIth their abIlIty to reproduce. Litter SIzes have been smaller than usual, and the babIes of exposed ammals have weighed less than normal and have had delayed bone formation The U.S Department of Health and Human Services has determmed that ethylene oxide may reasonably be antICIpated to be a carcmogen Some studies of workers exposed to ethylene OXide in ethylene OXIde factories or hospItal stenlIzmg rooms have shown an Increased mCldence of leukemIa, stomach cancer, cancer of the pancreas and Hodgkm's disease Ethylene OXide has also been shown to cause cancer m laboratoryammals Leukemia, bram tumors, lung tumors and tumors of the tear glands of the eye have been found. What levels of exposure have resulted in harmful health effects? Tables 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, and 1-4 show the relatIOnship between exposure to ethylene OXIde and known health effects Skin contact WIth ethylene OXide can result 111 blisters and burns that may appear to be similar to frostbite. With longer times of contact, there IS a more severe reactIOn. Eye damage can also result from http://atsdrl atsdr ede gOY 8080/ToxProfiles/phs9016 html Page 2 of 3 A TSDR - Public Health Statement Ethylene Oxide (1990) ethylene oXIde contact. 10/25/97 5 29 PM It is possible to smell ethylene oXide If It IS present In water at or above 140 mIllIgrams per lIter (about one quart) of water It can also be "melled In atr 11' It IS pre<;ent at or above 430 ppm (430 parts of ethylene oXIde per mIllIon parts of air) A Mimmal RISk Level (MRL) 1<; also Included In Table U ThiS MRL was denved from ammal data for long-term exposure The MRL provides a basIs for companson with levels that people mIght encounter m the all' If a person IS exposed to ethylene oXide at an amount below the MRL, It IS not expected that harmful (noncancer) health effects will occur Because thiS level IS based only on mformatIOn currently aVaIlable, some uncertainty IS always associated wIth It. Also, because the method for denvmg MRLs does not use any information about cancer, an MRL does not Imply anything about the presence, absence, or level of nsk for cancer Is there a medical test to determine whether I have been exposed to ethylene oxide? There are two kmds of tests that can determine If you have been exposed to ethylene oXIde wIthm the last couple of days These tests are not routinely done m a doctor's office, but can be done m a specIal laboratory One test measures thiS substance In blood, the other measures It m aIr that you breathe out of your lungs. If you were exposed to ethylene oXide more than two or three days ago, there may be no ethylene oXIde remaining In your body In additIOn, If you have been exposed to very low levels of ethylene oXIde, these tests may not detect It. The results of these tests cannot be used to predict the type or severity of health effects resultlllg from exposure What recommendations has the federal government made to protect human health? In order to protect the general populatIOn from exposure to ethylene oXIde, the federal government has establIshed a number of gUIdelines and regulatIOns related to ItS use and dIsposal EPA IS consIdenng lIsting ethylene oXIde as a hazardous aIr pollutant and regulatmg mdustrIal emISSIons. The Food and Drug AdminIstration (FDA) has set lImits on the levels of ethylene oXIde that may remain on food products fumigated with thlS chemIcal In order to protect workers who use ethylene oXIde while on the Job, the OccupatIOnal Safety and Health AdminIstration (OSHA) has establIshed a lImIt of 1 ppm in workplace aIr for an 8-hour workday and a lllTIlt of 5 ppm for a 15-mInute penod.

AmbIent aIr qualIty gllldelInes and the supportlllg documentation have recently been completed for styrene using thIS process ThiS document has undergone a reVIew by the SCIentIfic ReVIew COmmIttee and the comments receIved have been mcorporated, where approprIate mto the supportmg documentatIOn. External reVIew and comments are now bemg solICited. Although there are no polystyrene producmg plants m Mallltoba, sources of styrene emISSIons do eXIst m Mal11toba. In general, styrene has the potential to be released wherever products are fabncated from styrene contammg materIals such as fiberglass, wh ere ,;tyrene resms are used, or where styrene-containing polymers are produced or used Examples of ,;uch faCIlIties 1l1clude a fiberglass tank manufacturer and a particle-board furl11ture manufacturer All' quality gUldelmes for styrene can be used WIth these and SImilar facilItIes, for example, to assess the air qualIty Impacts Identified by Envlronment Act proposals or by ambient air quality mOl1ltonng Styrene Styrene IS predommantly a man-made chemIcal The mamuse of styrene IS m the manufacture of polymers, copolymers and remforced plastiC';, particularly polystyrene More than half of the styrene produced is used for the manufacturmg of polystyrene produc b IIlcludmg styrofoam, a styrene polymer Styrene IS also a naturally occumng chemical III the environment and can be found 111 the sap of some tree speCIes and in coals and tars Styrene can be released 1I1tO the environment from any stage III ItS production, storage, transport, use and dIsposal Styrene can also be released dUrIng fires IIlvolvlIlg polymers, such as polystyrene Other sources of styrene are the IIlcomplete combustion or g,l\olllle III motor vehicles and cigarette smoke Styrene IS typically a liqUId ,It normal environmental temperatures It has a moderate vapour pressure, a moderate evaporatIon rate and IS only slIghtly \oluble 111 water http IIwww gOY mb ca/cnviron/pagcs/news/~jyrexec html Page 1 of 5 Styrene-exec summary 10/25/97 5:59 PM Styrene has a sweet odour ,It low concentratlon~ ,1Ild a disagreeable odour dt higher concentratIOns The reported odour threshold for styrene range<; wldelv from 36 pg/m3 (8 ppb) to 8,000 pg/m3 (1,900 ppb), the odour threshold for 16% of the populatIon Ius bee n estImated to be about 500 pg/m3 (118 ppb), thIS threshold IS about 125 g/m3 (29 prb) when converted to an equIvalent one-hour average The average level of styrene In the ambIent .lII' In Cdnada, measured In urban centres from 1988 to 1990, was 0 59 pg/m3 (0 14 ppb) Measured levels have ranged from non-detectable to 34 2 /lg/m3 (0 14 ppb) In Winmpeg, measured styrene level" In the dmblent all' ranged from non-detectable to 9 42 /lg/m3 (2.2 ppb) In the years 1990 to 1994 After a release of styrene to the enVlronmenl, the "hort-half life of styrene (up to 9 hours), due to reactions wIth hydroxyl radicals and ground-level (troposphenc) ozone suggests that styrene wIll have a low tendency to accumulate 111 the atmo"phenc env lronment.

An occupatIOnal samplIng method NIOSH Method 1501, IS available for the aIr samplIng of styrene in the workplace Humans are the environmental receptors of greatest concern due to potential effects on the respIratory and central nervous system The most likely exposure pathway to styrene IS through InhalatIOn of styrene in the ambient aIr InsuffiCient InformatIon was aVdllable to adequately assess the effects of styrene on ammals, vegetatIOn, materIals or aesthetIC p,lrameter" InhalatIOn of the vapour or aerosol form of "tyrene IS the pnmary exposure route of concern, although styrene may be tOXIC by other exposure pathway<; Short-term exposures to styrene In the air may cause effects such as llTltatlOn of the nose and throat, coughmg, headaches and fatIgue.

The EnvIronmental ProtectIOn Agency (EP A) IS IssUIng a final rule to reduce Ethylene OXIde (EO) emISSIons from commercial stenlIzatIon and furrugatIOn operations such as medIcal eqUIpment manufacturers. EO IS one of the hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) or ai r tOXICS lIsted under the Clean AIr Act Amendments of 1990 EO IS used as a stenlant for heat or mOIsture-sensItive matenals or as a furrugant to control rrucroorgamsms or msects WHAT ARE THE HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS? The final rule WIll greatly reduce emISSIons of EO, a probable human carcmogen that causes adverse reproductive and developmental effects (eg. bIrth defects) Annual reductIOns of EO will equal approxImately 1,000 tons. The final rule WIll reduce current emISSIons by 94% from an estimated 114 sources nationWIde. WHY IS EPA REGULATING COMMERCIAL STERILIZATION AND FUMIGATION OPERA TIONS? Under the Clean AIr Act Amendments of 1990, EPA IS reqUIred to regulate errussIOns of 189 lIsted tOXIC air pollutants.

Klapp, too, has raised real estate- I related concerns. He owns 10 city lots in downtown Yelm and claims that two local contractors declined to build apartments on property he . owns because of its proximity to the styrene-producing plants. The smell worries other resi- dents. "My kids now call this "Smelm," said resident Rene Spencer. Spencer said she also worries about how the pollutant is affecting her and her children physically. Resident Angie Woodring, who breast-feeds her 2V2-year-old son, is concerned about the toxins from ' the styrene being present in breast milk, after hearing Klapp bring up those possibilities. But Hargrave disputed the al- leged health effects and said Amtech has not increased itsemis- sions yet. She said the increase per- I mitted by air regulators will cover the company's five-year plan to in- I crease production. "This is planning for the future," she said. Olympian reporters Linda Tarr and Cindy Simmons contributed to this re- port, Yelm residents appeal increase in chemicals . Air quality: Two residents protest a deCISIOn allowmg an mcrease of styrene emIssions By Patty Kinney For The Olympian YELM - Two residents are appealing the Olympic Air Pol- lution Control Authority's de- cision to let a Yelm company release more of the chemical styrene into the air. State Pollution Control Hearings Board officials will try to negotiate a settlement between appellants John Klapp and Nancy Callihan and Amtech Corp., said Phyllis Macleod, administrative ap- peals judge for the hearings board. A pre-nearing meeting is scheduled Nov. 20 The Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority had decided Aug. 13 to allow Amtech to in- crease its emission of the chemical styrene to 99 tons per year from 18.7 tons. Amtech manufactures fiber- glass and plastic products, and it sought the greater emissions to allow expansion of its business. But Klapp and Callihan each filed an appeal with the Pollution Control Hearing Board last month. The ap- peals likely will be merged into one case, Macleod said. If a compromise isn't reached, a March 5 hearing on the matter is tentatively set. The Pollution Control Board will have 90 days to render a decision. Either side can appeal that decision in Superior Court. Eleanor Hargrave, environ- mental manager for Amtech, i said the higher allowable I styrene emissions do not pose a health threat. The Department of Health has said that styrene is "a col- orless liquid that evaporates quickly and has a characteris- See Yelm / C2 From Page One tic sweet ,mell ~t low concentra- tions." It ig absorbed into the body's fat through breathing and can cause nausea and headaches. Hargrave said the company will release less styrene than the num- bers make it seem. Hargrave said a Health Depart- ment representative testified on Aug. 13 that the increased emis- sions represented no health risk. But the appellants say present air pollution already is .unacceptable. Klapp and Callihan contend that most Yelm residents don't want the increased emissions, that styrene- producing businesses are too close to schools and that there was too lit- tle communication about the issue to community members. Klapp has been crusading to gain support of his appeal for several weeks, although he's failed to gain support from any official agencies. Earlier this month, he pleaded his case before the Yelm School Board. But Yelm Community School Board President Mark Carpenter said it's not the board's place to get involved.

The Consent Agenda (Minutes of the July Board meeting and vouchers) was approved as presented. PUBLIC HEARING: Amtech Expansion Huntingford asked staff to give an overview. Peace explained that OAPCA had received a request from Amtech to increase their emissions from 18 tons to 99 tons. Peace noted that it was not an increase in the amount of equipment, just the emissions. The determination by staff is that the expansion be approved Peace stated that an agenda has been provided by staff regarding speakers for Amtech, the Health Department, and staff. Bob Jones, Director of Military Marketing for Amtech, gave a brief history of Amtech. He noted that Amtech is an important part of the Yelm community. Jones explained that Amtech has an environmental responsibility and we look to reduce emission by using reduced emission materials in our production. Arntech is looking for alternatives to fiberglass, we are increasing our emphasis on vacuum formed plastic which has no emissions. Amtech installed a $250,000 emission control system, 43 foot high stacks, and we find it to be a state of the art ventilation system. Amtech uses regrind plastics and also uses their own waste plastics. Upon approval from OAPCA staff, Arntech will be in a position to support the city of Yelm's request to have our water system upgraded, and our parking lot resurfaced. Jones noted the economic benefits for the Yelrn community. Jones added that with the increase from 18 tons to 99 tons per year Arntech will be able to increase sales, over the next ~-h vp~rs on a 25% annual basis. This increase would allow us to increase -, V;:J/~V/;:JI ~'" 'tV u~ ,"vu 'l;:J~ UvVO U:\l'\.,.,\ ~UV't Minutes - 2 state of the art ventilation system. Mark Goodin, OAPCA Engineer, stated that staff recommends conditional approval. Goodin explained that Amtech had submitted their application in April of 1997. Amtech is listed as a fiberglass reinforced plastic industry, which means that they use resin to build products. There are two such companies located in Yelm. Goodin, with the aid of a map, showed that Amtech is pretty much centrally located in Yelm. He noted that the other company, Lasco, has the same type of process and emissions. He added that Lasco's potential to emit is 249 tons per year, Amtech is only asking to increase up to a potential of 99 tons per year. Goodin noted that Amtech has demonstrated that their current ventilation system can handle the increase in production. OAPCA staff has reviewed the application and coordinated with the state department of health's Harriet Amman and Denise LaFlamme, to review cumulative health implications. As stated before, staff recommends conditional approval of Amtech's application. The basis for our recommendation is that 1) the application demonstrates that they comply with New Source Regulations; 2) Amtech's application fulfills the state of Washington health reviews in the Washington Air Toxics Regulation; and, 3) after Amtech reaches maximum production, we believe it is likely that they will comply with general regulations and ambient standards which includes general nuisance regulations, odor regulations, and regulations pertaining to human health and property. Goodin added that this statement does not preclude occurrences of notices of violation. It is our position that any source has a potential for an odor violation to occur. Ln this case, we do not believe that Amtech odor violations will be recurring to a situation where we have a significant problem from Amtech that we cannot resolve with our odor policy. Amtech's current operation is complying with BACT by using molding processes, vacuum formed plastics, low styrene resins, high transfer efficiency, and higher stacks. They spray and apply in approved areas, which we believe has greatly increased the dilution of the pollutants when they exit the facility. Amtech has made a commitment in their application to use aqueous cleaners which will reduce the use of acetone. Goodin stated that OAPCA's technical staff concurs that this is BACT for this type of company. Goodin touched on some of the health levels (ABILs) stating that the modeling done shows that their concentrations are consistent with the ABILs. In other words they will be in compliance. However, Goodin added, we didn't stop there. There was concern regarding cumulative impacts being that there are two companies in the area. Goodin showed a slide depicting the cumulative emissions of Lasco and Amtech. One conclusion we carne to, Goodin stated, is that the higher results are largely contributed to Lasco's emissions. It was noted that the numbers used were at both Lasco and Amtech's maximum potential to emit (249 and 99 respectively). Foutch asked if the model was done during a typical day or a worst case type day. Kirk Winges, McCaulley, Frick, and Gillman, stated that meteorological data was provided by Department of Ecology. The data was from a fall day, which would be the time of year we would see inversions. The last area of focus, Goodin continued, would be compliance with odors. We drew several conclusions. We took a look at odor detection thresholds and we know that we have had odor complaints in the Yelm area. Some people smell it and some people don't. Everyone has a different response to odors, in fact Minutes - 3 in the literature that we went through, the odor thresholds are allover the board. OAPCA has developed an odor enforcement policy and even though there is going to be an increase in emissions we feel that we will be able to deal with the odor complaints. Goodin showed a map of complaints which covered about 10 years. The map shows where the complaints are occurring. From our records we have noticed a decline in odor complaints from 1996 to 1997. In 1994 the Yelm styrene study was completed. In 1995 there were 27 complaints, 15 of which were formal. In 1996 there was 12 complaints, 1 of which was formal. And, so far in 1997 there have been only 3 complaints, and none of them were formal. We believe that the decline in complaints is contributed to Lasco's air operating permit (there has been a decrease in emissions) and Amtech's new ventilation system with higher stacks and increased air flow rate. Foutch stated that he thought that later on we had planned a styrene study? Goodin stated that it is an option. Foutch asked what the fallout of something like that would be. Foutch noted that his concern is the ratcheting of the approvals which individually seem to fit within the standards for health and so on. But, what about the cumulative impact. Goodin noted that the styrene study which took place in 1994 proved that you could smell the styrene, however there was no significant health impacts. Currently, staff is leading up an ambient styrene study. Once we get the results from the ambient studies we can combine the results with the model and see if we should revisit the styrene study. Some discussion followed. Harriet Amman, Senior Toxicologist for Department of Health, stated that the ASIL number is the health standard. This number is used to determine if there might be any kind of health impact. It is based on studies done by EPA to develop what is called a reference concentration. The reference concentration is defined as the concentration that an individual could be exposed to for a lifetime that will have no adverse effect from a health or toxicologic point of view. In this case, for styrene, the studies are human occupational studies. Amman explained that in the studies a lowest observed effect level and a no observed effect level (meaning there is nothing happening to the workers at this level) are calculated. The no observed effect level has some safety, or uncertainty, factors applied to it. These factors make up for things they may be missing in the data. The reference concentration that came in for Amtech was 30 times below the no observed adverse effect level. Amman stated that there are no concentrations that are expected to exceed the ASILs. From a health point of view, she continued, we support the actions of OAPCA. Amman commented on odor thresholds. She noted that each person has a different odor threshold. Amman pointed out that people have different reactions to odor without any adverse health effects. Foutch asked if strictly on health grounds, this could keep ratcheting up until it is 30 times what it is likely to be today, we would be condemned to rubber stamping these applications as long as it stays below the ASILs. Amman disagreed. She stated there are a lot of factors that could change the conclusions of each application. Public testimony: Gary Beck, Executive Director of Yelm Chamber, stated that Amtech is one of 09/10/97 12 43 '5'1 206 491 6308 OAPCA @006 Minutes - 4 the larger employers and they are an important part of our community. Amtech has demonstrated their support through their active participation in the Chamber, the schools, and in many other activities in our city. Shelly Badger, City Administrator City of Yelm, stated that she was here on behalf of Mayor Cathy Wolfe and the city council. The city supports staff recommendation for approval of the Amtech proposal with the conditional approval as recommended by staff. Badger stated that Amtech has been very proactive in their emission controls and purchasing of alternative technologies to protect the Yelm community. Foutch asked if the Yelm city government or the community as a whole, considered what the maximum styrene emissions that the community will tolerate. Badger stated that the work that OAPCA has previously done, and the cumulative look that they are doing and analyzing the new requests are extremely important. We look to that and to OAPCA as our contracting agency to guide us in that. We support any studies that you choose to do to help determine the cumulative impacts. We have not established a number that would be the maximum amount, we would look at your studies and any complaints in the future. Foutch noted that he is becoming more and more uneasy about this situation as it seems to be on "us" mostly. Someday, he continued, we need to have some sort of joint understanding as to what the conununity wants in tenus of limits. Burgman stated that it was her understanding, then, that the city of Yelm is not doing any independent studies, but looks to this organization for guidance. Badger stated that this was correct. Tom Bjorgen, Washington Environmental Council, stated that he was appearing on behalf of the council in opposition to the approval of this application. Bjorgen stated that he would like to point out that one of the critical legal standards has not been met. More specifically there has been an inadequate demonstration that the standard dealing with styrene emissions has been met. He noted that styrene is listed as a TAP (Toxic Air Pollutant), it is a neurotoxin, a suspected carcinogen, and as your staff acknowledges in the preliminary determination, there are studies which suggest damage to reproductive capacities in women. Bjorgen explained that there is nothing benign about styrene and this Board should give it the highest scrutiny. He felt that the Board should approve the application, only if there is no question that the standard is met. If, Bjorgen continued, you can show that the ASILs are not being exceeded at this time, then you could approve the application. The ASIL level for styrene is 1000 ug/m3. The applicant has done mOdeling which shows this has been met, but I feel, Bjorgen stated, that there are discrepancies in this position. You will see, in two locations, in your staff's preliminary determination, the statement that the model levels of the styrene near these facilities is close to 1000 ug/m3. In other words, in 1994 (styrene study), the experts are saying that it is close to 1000. Bjorgen found it hard to believe that if the facilities are this close to the ASILs already, that quintupling the emission level will somehow lead to a reduction of styrene in the atmosphere.

The reasons the concentrations were calculated to be high at that time is that they were one hour concentrations and were not calculated to show the difference between a one hour average and a 24 hour average. At that time, Amtech's stacks were very low also. Winges noted that Lasco's concentrations are higher because of the shorter stacks. To conclude, Winges noted that we did do a complete analysis in comparing with the ASILs and the concentrations that we came up with was 130 ug/m3 which is completely consistent with the findings that we had several years ago. Huntingford closed the public hearing. Goodin stated that Amtech has made a substantial amount of improvements which have improved the concentrations of styrene. Goodin stated that he concurred with Winges' statements and noted that we have gone beyond what the Washington Air Toxics regulations requires. Burgman asked Gentry if there was any legal impacts. Gentry stated that a determination that the Board needs to make as to whether or not health issues have been addressed. Also that the odor issues have been addressed. You need to decide whether the proposal will have an adverse effect or be in compliance with the health standards and odor issues. Nichols moved that the conditional approval be granted as recommended by staff with the following findings of fact, based on testimony of staff, the health department, and the consultants for the applicant: 1) Amtech's NOC application provides adequate demonstration of compliance with the Washington Air Toxics Regulation WAC 173-460; 2) The conditions of approval recommended by staff are for purposes of assuring that pollution controls and prevention measures proposed by Amtech will be implemented to the extent and level of control stated in the application; 3) The potential for odors from Amtech will increase due to the increase in allowable styrene emissions, however, OAPCA's policy for enforcing odor regulations is structured to identify unreasonable odors and to apply appropriate enforcement response; 4) There is a conclusion that the 99 tpy limit is appropriate for Amtech considering physical capacity of equipment and facilities; and, 5) Regarding cumulative impacts between Amtech and Lasco, the results taken by the study indicate the styrene emissions from both companies in the Yelm area are not likely to result in health impacts, leading to the conclusion that the increase in emissions of styrene and other volatile organic compounds will not cause or contribute to any violation of an ambient air quality standard and are sufficiently low to protect human health and safety from potential carcinogenic and/or other toxic effects, though the potential for odors will increase. Huntingford asked if there was any discussion Nichols added that the laws in this country, in this state, and of this agency, set standards, rules, and regulations. I believe, he continued, that when you playa game or in life, there are rules that you follow. You don't invent ways to overlook the rules. If we don't like the rules or standards we can change them, but when all the evidence shows that someone has complied "'~ 1-'" 1-1-10 1"1,1!:::>1'=l ;'mn reaulations and is playinq inside the "box", I don I t think 09/10/97 12 46 ~1 206 491 6308 DAPCA @008 Minutes - 6 issue of cumulative effects on the environment is interesting, it is a little difficult to go out and extrapolate and guess what might happen with another emission request we don't have. Foutch added that he felt it is important that the local government needs to look at this situation soon. Yelm needs to take a closer look at the levels and what it is they want as far as limits. The motion was seconded and carried. NEW BUSINESS: Executive Session: Employee Dispute The Board met in executive session. The Board stated that they would send a letter to staff. OLD BUSINESS: Executive Session: Executive Director's Contract A motion was made to approve the Executive Director's contract. The motion was seconded and carried. Job Description update Peace stated that staff had formed a committee to complete the job descriptions. He noted that the Air Quality Specialist I & II, and the Public Information Officer's job descriptions are complete. The next ones on the agenda are the Executive Director's and the Engineer's.

Plus add all the extra stuff that comes from styrene production, such as tons of acetone. Do these people have rocks in their head or what? If they want to breathe neurotoxins fme, but why don't they just go down to Amtech or Lasco and stick their heads in a boiler room and take a whiff, why subject me and the rest of Yelm to this indulgence? What I'm saying here is that the Bathtub Boys have got to have zero emissions or get out of town. In the mterest of public health Mayor Wolf and the City Hall Crew have got to back us . - 4 .\ on this. If not, then they've got to go as well. While they're making up their minds I suggest a community service for the interim. I hereby ask the city to post a large sign, big enough for everybody to see such as the Forest Service posts in the woods to alert us to the daily fIre hazard, what our styrene load is for that day On the sign indicate the time that day the Bathtub Boys are gonna dump and how muc~ where the winds are expected to blow it and what neighborhoods should stay under cover This means getting timely information from the Boys themselves, which should be a good indicator of how much they care about the health of their neighbors. On a personal note I would like to publicly announce that I offer to drive, free of charge, the CEO's of Amtech and Lasco anywhere in the continental United States they would like to relocate to when they decide to leave town.

Staff's general conclusion is that the increase in emissions of styrene and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will not cause or contribute to any violation of an ambient air quality standard and are sufficiently low to protect human health and safety from potential carcinogenic and/or other toxic effects though the potential for odors will increase. In summary, Staff's specific conclusions are as follows: 1. HEALTH IMPACTS: AMTECH's NOC application provides adequate demonstration of compliance with the Washington Air Toxics regulation (WAC 173-460) including a modeling analysis showing that Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) impacts from increased emissions will be below the prescribed Acceptable Source Impact Levels (ASILs). According to WAC 173-460 such a result demonstrates that HAP emissions are sufficiently low to protect human health and safety from potential carcinogenic and/or other toxic effects. 2. BACT: Control and/or prevention of air pollutant emissions using Best Available Control Technology or BACT is a requirement of both WAC 173-400-113 and WAC 173-460-060. AMTECH proposes a combination of pollution prevention techniques to minimize styrene emissions such as non-spray resin application techniques, use of low styrene resins and gelcoats, and low emitting technologies such as low pressure molding and vacuum forming. Provided that Staff's recommended conditions of approval are implemented, air pollutant control and prevention measures proposed by AMTECH constitute BACT for this application. The Conditions of Approval recommended by Staff are for purposes of assuring that pollution controls and prevention measures proposed by AMTECH will be implemented to the extent and level of control stated in the NOC application. 3. ODORS: The potential for odors from AMTECH will increase due to the increase in allowable styrene emissions. However, OAPCA's policy for enforcing odor regulations is structured to identify "unreasonable" odors and to apply appropriate enforcement response. If AMTECH's expansion results in "unreasonable" odors, the policy will dictate an appropriate course of action aimed at resolving the odor problem. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 1 of 20 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AMTECH is an existing manufacturer of fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP) products located at 401 Railroad Street in Yelm, Washington. AMTECH's NOC application requests OAPCA's approval for an increase in the maximum allowable plant-wide styrene emissions limit from 18.5 tons per year to 99 tons per year. AMTECH does not proposed any additional equipment or facilities to accommodate this increase in capacity. Increased production is planned to take place within existing facilities using existing equipment. A complete description of the existing facility is provided in AMTECH's NOC application. EMISSIONS Production processes used at AMTECH involve the application of resin based materials on open molds resulting in emissions of the compound styrene which is a VOC. Styrene is classified as a Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) in the Washington State Air Toxics regulation and in the Federal Clean Air Act. AMTECH is classified as a "major" source of styrene in that actual emissions at the facility exceed 10 tons per year which is the major source threshold for any single HAP. AMTECH emits other VOCs as well, but in lesser quantities than styrene. A summary of proposed emission levels is provided in Table 1. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 2 of 20 'j :~! '.'

APPLICABLE REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS A complete listing of applicable air regulations and standards is provided in Table 3 along with a brief description of each. The following sections provide compliance evaluations for certain key regulations. However, AMTECH Yelm is expected to comply with all applicable air quality regulations and standards which are listed in Table 3. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 3 of 20 In addition to applicable regulations and standards, Staff is recommending several compliance assurance conditions which are listed in Table 4 below. These conditions were determined by Staff as necessary for assuring that AMTECH Yelm complies with the applicable regulations and standards listed in Table 3. Staff's recommended conditions are incorporated into a proposed Approval Order which will be issued to the AMTECH Yelm upon final approval by OAPCA's Board of Directors. Once issued, the Approval Order is a legally binding document containing the special conditions for which the project was approved. Any condition established in an Approval Order issued by OAPCA is enforceable and subject to penalties pursuant to the Washington Clean Air Act. REQUIREMENTS FOR NEW SOURCES IN ATTAINMENT AREAS [WAC 173-400-113, OAPCA 1.7] The term "Attainment" is used to designate that a area does not violate any ambient air quality standard. The Yelm area is considered an "Attainment" area, therefore, these regulations apply. The regulations require the following ~or new sources and modifications: 1. Use of Best Available Control Technology (BACT) for control of any increases in emissions; 2. Compliance with any applicable New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) or National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) ; 3. Emissions shall not delay the attainment date for any area not in attainment nor cause or contribute to a violation of any ambient air quality standard; 4. If the proposed new source or modification will emit any Hazardous Air Pollutant, Compliance with WAC 173-460. compliance with each requirement will be discussed separately. BACT Best Available Control Technology (BACT) is defined in WAC 173-400 as, "an emission limitation based on the maximum degree of reduction for each air pollutant subject to regulation under 70.94 RCW emitted from or which results from any new or modified stationary source, which the permitting authority, on a case-by-case basis, taking into account energy, environmental, and economic impacts and other costs, determines is achievable for such source or modification through application of production processes and available methods, systems, and techniques, including fuel cleaning, clean fuels, or treatment or innovative fuel combustion techniques for control of each such fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 4 of 20 1..,: :~,.. t,tt ;'t 1~'i ft.

AMTECH's BACT analysis was consistent with EPA's prescribed "top down" approach and evaluated the physical and economic feasibility of available control options. Table 2A summarizes AMTECH's proposed BACT measures and limits Table 2A: AMTECH's BACT Proposal VOC BACT * Polyester Resin Monomer Content Limits: General Purpose Resin Monomer - 35 % by wt in resin as applied Corrosion-Resistant Resin Monomer - 48 % by wt in resin as applied Fire Retardant Resin Monomer - 42 % by wt in resin as applied High Strength Resin Monomer - 48 % by wt in resin as applied Clear Gel Coat resin Monomer - 50 % by wt in resin as applied Pigmented Gel Coat Resin Monomer - 45 % by wt in ~resin as applied * Polyester Resin Application Methods: Implement use of the Venus FLOWCHOP resin application method where practical. Otherwise use HVLP, air-assisted airless, or electrostatic spray equipment. Air-atomized spray equipment will be limited to touch-up work. Keep resin materials in closed containers. * Cleaning Operations: Use aqueous cleaners instead of acetone to the maximum extent possible. Limit VOC content of cleaning materials to 0.42 lb/gallon. Store solvent laden rags in closed containers. Clean spray guns without spraying solvent into the air. PARTICULATE BACT * PM Paint Operations: Dry filter PM control with a minimum 98% control efficiency. * Grinding Dust Suppression: Water spray application during cutting, drilling, and grinding to control dust emissions. * Grinding PM control: Dry filter PM control with a minimum 94% control efficiency. Available control technologies that were eliminated as BACT include~ incineration technologies such as regenerative thermal oxidation, rotary concentrators, biofilters, and photo oxidation systems. These 1 WAC 173-400-030 Definitions. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 5 of 20 control systems were eliminated as BACT due to economic impacts. Economic feasibility was evaluated based on the total annual cost (annualized initial capital cost plus annual O&M cost) divided by the total annual tons of pollutant that would be eliminated by the control device. This resulted in a cost effectiveness estimate for each control option in terms of dollars per ton of pollutant removed. The estimated cost effectiveness of the control option was compared to cost effectiveness of controls imposed on similar existing facilities elsewhere in the U.S. Out of the control options eliminated as BACT, the most cost effective control system was a combined rotary concentrator (RC) and regenerative thermal oxidation (RTO) system. The cost effectiveness of this system was estimated at $3544 per ton. AMTECH concluded that the economic impact of the RC + RTO system was too severe to be considered as BACT. Staff generally concurs with the outcome of AMTECH's BACT determination. However, Staff's concurrence is based in part on the extent of controls employed at existing facilities throughout the nation in addition to AMTECH's data on the cost to implement add-on controls. OAPCA Staff inquired with other air agencies nation wide to determine the extent of air pollution controls required at other Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics (FRP) manufacturing plants and could find no facilities of AMTECH's size which required add-on controls such as RC+RTO. In fact, in other regions, ~airly large facilities have been approved without add-on controls quite recently. Information obtained suggests that requiring RC+RTO or any other add-on controls for AMTECH would be unique if not a first for a facility this size. Table 2B provides a listing of FRP facilities identified along with their size and approved controls. Staff's conclusion is that requiring an add-on control system like a RC+RTO system would put AMTECH in a unique class as Staff's survey suggests there are few facilities which have add on controls. The additional $3544 per ton would be a cost unique to AMTECH since it appears that few competitors have such controls. On this basis, Staff concurs that RC+RTO as well as other add on controls can be ruled out as BACT for AMTECH on grounds that it would result in significant additional cost compared to AMTECH's competitors. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 6 of 20 r~',;: i:;:;, i i .~ ;j,::~ r~ '~~ 'fk ~;~ _~\1 .'

ATTAINMENT OF AMBIENT AIR QUALITY STANDARDS Emissions from AMTECH will be below the major source thresholds for the criteria pollutants (NOx, S02, CO, particulates, VOCs). As such, fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 7 of 20 emissions are unlikely to cause or contribute to violation of any ambient air quality standard. WASHINGTON AIR TOXICS REGULATION Emissions from AMTECH include styrene and other VOCs which are considered as toxic or Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs). AMTECH's request to increase emissions is, therefore, subject to compliance with WAC 173-460, the Washington Air Toxics regulation. WAC 173-460 requires new sources of HAP emissions to control emissions using Best Available Control Technology (BACT). WAC 173-460 also requires assessment of health risk from HAP emissions unless impacts can be demonstrated to be below "Acceptable Source Impact Levels" (ASILS) prescribed in the regulation, or emissions can be demonstrated to be below the prescribed "small quantity emission rates". AMTECH's environmental consultant performed a "Tier 1" HAP impacts analysis using the EPA approved Industrial Source Complex (ISC) model. Model inputs and results are provided in AMTECH's NOC application. Results show that HAP impacts will likely be below ASILS for all HAPs emitted except chromium compounds. However, AMTECH has agreed to eliminate use of all materials containing chromium compounds. Therefore, the results demonstrate compliance with WAC 173-460, the Washington Air Toxics regulation. VISIBLE EMISSIONS [WAC 1?3-400-040(1), OAPCA 1.9.03] Visible emissions regulations prohibit emissions for more than 3 minutes in anyone hour of a gas stream containing air contaminants which exhibit greater than 20% opacity as determined by DOE Method 9A visual readings or, if required, an opacity monitoring device certified in accordance with 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 1. Particulate emissions from AMTECH due to overspray and fine particulate dust from product grinding do have the potential to exhibit opacity. However, AMTECH currently employs particulate and overspray controls to control particulate emissions from these operations. Provided that AMTECH's particulate control measures are adequately maintained, there is little likelihood that there will be any visible emissions from AMTECH's stacks. Overspray is the fine aerosol mist that occurs during spray application of resin based materials. AMTECH is required to conduct all spray application of resin materials within designated lamination areas or spray booths. These designated areas are equipped with exhaust filtration systems designed to control overspray. The exhaust air flowrates for these areas are large enough to induce air laden with overspray and dust into the exhaust system. Exhaust air intake fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 8 of 20 f';~ . 1"'~t :~rr t~l l'~ . ':,:' ';'; p,' ~,. ~ ~"-t :'(! A< it.;;. ~4~ A~:; !~~ is preceded by filter banks equipped with filters designed to capture or knock out overspray or dust. particulate dust due to grinding, drilling, and cutting operations is controlled by AMTECH with either wet suppression techniques or dust collectors. The wet suppression techniques involve conducting the operations under a fine spray mist which captures dust generated from the operation. The dust laden water drips off the part and into a catch basin where the dust particles settle out. Dust collectors simply knock out the dust from the exhaust air stream using a filtering media. Provided that particulate control systems are adequately operated and maintained, particulate will be removed from the exhaust air stream and visible emissions will not likely result. FALLOUT [WAC 173-40-040 (2)6 OAPCA Regulation 1.9.05 (e)] These regulations prohibit particulate emissions from any source to be deposited beyond the property under direct control of the owner or operator of the source in sufficient quantity to interfere unreasonably with the use and enjoyment of the property upon which the material was deposited. Fallout is the deposition of particulate matter from suspended particulate in the ambient air. Fallout from AMTECH's operations is not likely to occur provided particulate control measures currently employed by AMTECH are maintained. FUGITIVE EMISSIONS REGULATIONS [WAC 173-400-040 (3) and (a), OAPCA 1.9.05 (e)] These regulations require reasonable precautions be taken to control fugitive emissions and to prevent fugitive dust from becoming airborne. Fugitive emissions are emissions of air pollutants which exit the facility through openings other than exhaust stacks and vents designed for such purposes. Fugitive emissions may exit the facility through cargo doors, leaks in ducts and pipes, windows, etc. Fugitive emissions are significant in that they avoid exhaust through stacks and vents which were engineered specifically for purposes of exhausting such pollutants. In the case of AMTECH, exhaust stacks serving the lamination area were designed to provide substantial odor mitigation through dilution. Fugitive emissions occur at lower elevations and generally higher concentrations than if emitted through the exhaust stacks. This increases the likelihood of odors. Therefore, preventing fugitive emissions is important with respect to minimizing the likelihood of odors. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 9 of 20 Staff considers reasonable precautions for preventing fugitive emissions to include: 1. Conducting lamination operations only in areas approved for such activities. 2. Operating associated exhaust/ventilation systems at all times during lamination operations. 3. Assuring that facility cargo doors and other openings are only open when necessary to transfer people, products and materials into or out of the facility. 4. Closed containers for all VOC containing materials including, but not limited to, resins, gelcoats, catalysts, paints, solvents, thinners, and cleaning agents. 5. Promptly cleaning up leaks and spills of VOCs. 6. Maintaining exhaust air flowrate of exhaust/ventilation systems. These reasonable precautions are recommended for inclusion as a condition in AMTECH's A~proval Order. ODOR REGULATIONS [WAC 173-400-040(4), OAPCA 1.9.11] Odor regulations require use of "recognized good practices and procedures" for control of any odor and prohibits emissions of any odor which unreasonably interferes with another person's use and enjoyment of their property. The primary pollutant of concern with respect to odors is the compound styrene. Reported odor thresholds for styrene range from 0.05 to 0.32 ppm (217 to 1386 micrograms per cubic meter)2. Modeling results provided in AMTECH's NOC application show that worst case hourly average concentrations of styrene could be as high as 325 micrograms per cubic meter which is within the range of reported odor thresholds. AMTECH :already employs measures that Staff considers as "recognized good practices and procedures" for the control of odors. These would include stack and exhaust system designed to minimize odors, use of low emitting technologies, and work practice standards to minimize fugitive emissions. Therefore, Staff considers AMTECH to be in compliance with the requirement that IIrecognized good practices and procedures" be employed for odor control. 2 Warning Properties of Industrial Chemicals, Oregon Lung Association, 1984. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 10 of 20 ~ f"' , ; Predicting the likelihood of maintaining compliance with the requirement that odors not "unreasonably,i:hterfere with the use and enjoyment of ones property" is difficult due to the fact that there are two facilities located in Yelm which emit styrene in major quantities and due to the subjective nature of odors. OAPCA has already documented odor complaints in the Yelm vicinity. In 1996 there were a total of 14 odor complaints that could be attributed to ambient styrene concentrations. so far in 1997 there has been only 1 complaint filed with OAPCA. Staff's only conclusion regarding odor impacts is that an increase in emissions from AMTECH will result in an increase in the potential for styrene odors. However, to address potential odor impacts, Staff is recommending conditions 2 & 4 which require AMTECH to investigate, report, and resolve odor related complaints. In_,addition OAPCA's odor enforcement policy is structured to resolve odor problems. If AMTECH's expansion results in "unreasonable'~ odors,OAPCA's odor policy dictates that a control strategy be devised and implemented. A copy of OAPCA's odor enforcement policy is included in Attachment 2. EMISSIONS DETRIMENTAL TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY [WAC 173-400-040 (5), OAPCA 1.9.23] These regulations prohibit emissions of any air contaminant from any source which are detrimental to persons or property. Staff considers health impacts, nuisance impacts and property related impacts as impacts which may be detrimental to persons or property. Compliance with these regulations will be assured through a combined monitoring effort which is structured at identifying air quality impacts which may be detrimental to persons or property. Monitoring will include monitoring of emissions from both plants in the Yelm area, complaint monitoring and investigation, meteorological monitoring, and measurement of ambient styrene levels in the Yelm vicinity. The Yelm Styrene Study conducted in 1994 established a complaint tracking network so that air quality related complaints in the Yelm area filed with various agencies would be forwarded to OAPCA who has primary responsibility for enforcing air regulations. AMTECH, LASCO, OAPCA, the Washington Department of Ecology, Thurston County, and the Washington State Department of Health all have the responsibility to make record of air quality related complaints when they are phoned in and to forward these records to OAPCA. Health related, air quality complaints are forwarded to the Washington State Health Department as well as OAPCA. Detailed complaint records is the first step in identifying whether impacts are detrimental to persons or property because it provides a historical account of the impacts. The Yelm Styrene Study also provided an assessment of the health fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 11 of 20 effects of styrene in the Yelm area. The Study concluded that, " breathing styrene in areas near the facilities (LASCO& AMTECH) , over a prolonged period of time, is unlikely to cause effects on the nervous system. " .3 The Study also concluded that, "infrequent inhalation of styrene at levels modeled near the facilities is unlikely to result in health impacts since the modeled levels are close to EPA's Reference Concentration of 1000 ug/m3.". 2 These conclusions were based on ambient concentrations estimated using maximum estimated emission rates from the two facilities and air quality dispersion modeling techniques. To re-confirm the results of the Yelm Styrene Study, OAPCA will be conducting an ambient styrene monitoring study in the fall of 1997 which will determine ambient concentrations of styrene by direct measurement. During the same period both LASCO and AMTECH will be required to monitor daily material usage rates and operations. These results will be evaluated and used to confirm the validity of the Yelm Styrene Study conducted in 1994. Should results indicate that the study is outdated, OAPCA will coordinate with the Departments of Health and Ecology, and Thurston County Environmental Health to re- assess the health impacts of ambient styrene in the Yelm area based on the new data. SULFUR DIOXIDE EMISSIONS LIMITATIONS [WAC 173-400-040(6)] This regulation prohibits emissions of sulfur dioxide from any emissions unit in excess of 1000 ppm of sulfur dioxide on a dry basis, corrected to 7% oxygen for combustion sources, and based on the average of any period of sixty consecutive minutes. AMTECH's process emissions do not contain any sulfur compounds. AMTECH does have approval to install a gas fired boiler in conjunction with their proposed Low Pressure Molding Compound machine. Emissions from this boiler will include minor quantities of sulfur dioxide. However, sulfur dioxide concentrations from combustion of either propane or natural gas are at least two orders of magnitude less than the 1000 ppm limit due to the low concentration of sulfur in natural gas and propane fuels. Compliance with this regulation is expected. CONCEALMENT AND MASKING [WAC 173-400-040(7), OAPCA 1.9.12] These regulations prohibit the installation or use of any means which conceals or masks an emission of an air contaminant which would otherwise violate any provisions of this chapter. This means that AMTECH is not allowed to add any masking agent to air exhaust which would disguise the odor of styrene. 3 Yelm Styrene Study (1994), Report to Residents, OAPCA, Thurston County, Departments of Health and Ecology, 1994. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 12 of 20 ;) '( PARTICULATE STANDARDS FOR COMBUSTION UNITS [WAC 173-400-050(1), OAPCA 1.9.05 (a) &:(b)] These regulations apply to fuel combustion units such as boilers, furnaces, and heaters. The regulations prohibit emissions of particulate matter in excess of 0.1 grain/dscf from all emission units except those combusting wood derived fuels. AMTECH's only combustion unit subject to these standards is a gas fired boiler which will provide steam to AMTECH's planned low pressure molding compound (LPMC) machine. Though approval for the LPMC system including the boiler was granted in 1996 under NOC # 96NOC033, the system has not yet been installed. However, due to the fact that the planned boiler is gas fired, compliance with particulate grain loading standards contained in these regulations is expected. PARTICULATE STANDARDS FOR PROCESS UNITS [WAC 173-400-060, OAPCA 1.9.05(a}] These regulations apply to processes which exhaust air contaminants such as spray booths and exhaust systems in general. The regulations prohibit emissions from any process unit in excess of 0.1 grain/dscf. AMTECH's exhaust from spray booths, lamination areas, and grinding, drilling and cutting areas is controlled by filtration prior to exiting the building through stacks or vents. As such, concentrations of particulates are expected to be well below the 0.1 grain loading limit. fn: 97NOC016 7/11/97 13 of 20 TABLE 3: Applicable Regulations and Standards for the AMTECH Yelm Category Regulation Citations Brief Description Visible Emissions WAC 173-400-040(1), Prohibits emissions for more than 3 minutes in anyone hour of a gas stream containing air (Opacity) OAPCA 1.9.03 contaminants which exhibit greater than 20% opacity as determined by DOE Method 9A visual readings or, if required, an opacity monitoring device certified in accordance with 40 CFR Pan 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 1 Fallout WAC 173-400-040(2), Prohibits particulate emissions from any source to be deposited, beyond the property under OAPCA 1.9.05(e) direct control of the owner or operator of the source, in sufficient quantity to interfere unreasonably with the use and enjoyment of the property upon which the material was deposited, Fugitive Emissions WAC 173-400-040(3), Requires that reasonable precautions be taken for controlling fugitive emissions.

The following is a summary of mforma1:10n on the health effects of styrene focusmg on those related to exposures through air The arr concentra1:10ns at wlnch health effects have been observed are provIded, where available These are gIven to allow a companson with the styrene arr concentratIOns estimated for the area surroundmg the facili1:1es ill Yelm Pure styrene IS a colorless hqmd wlnch evaporates qmckly and has a charactenS1:1C sweet smell at low concentrations DIfferent people smell styrene at dIfferent levels, but generally people can smell styrene at concentra1:10ns as low as approX1ITIately 204 ug/m3, wlnch is referred to as the odor threshold. Based on modelmg conducted by OAPCA, short-term outdoor arr concentratIOns of styrene close to the Hytec facility (6 mile radius) IS estimated to be 390 ug/m3 Smce tills concentratIOn IS greater than the odor threshold, it is not unexpected that people have reported styrene odors m that area. STYRENE HEALTH EFFECTS Much of the mformatIon available on the health effects of styrene comes from stuci1es whIch evaluated workers rn rndustnes that use styrene Workers are exposed dIfferently to styrene than are people livrng near the facilitIes ill Yelm For example, workers are exposed to illgher concentrations of styrene ill the worh.-place than would be expected for people livrng near the facilitIes ill Yelm. AdditIonally, workers are exposed constantly during workmg hours for many years, whereas people hvrng near the facilitIes ill Yelm will generally breathe styrene on a short-term basIS Furthermore, stuci1es whIch have evaluated the health of worker populatIons are complicated by the presence of other chemIcals m the workplace. Because of tills, It IS often drfficult to determme if the observed health effects m workers can be attributed to styrene In addition to occupational studies, there IS also some mformatIon on the toXIcity of styrene based on laboratory arumal studIes. Most Inhaled styrene IS absorbed mto the body where It mamly dIstributes rnto fat. Styrene does not remam stored in the body fat for very long as most styrene IS excreted ill the urine over several days Studies on workers chromcally exposed to styrene rn the workplace have shown that styrene affects the central nervous system. These studies have reported changes rn central nervous system functIon such as mood changes, tIredness, and slowed reactIon times, at styrene arr concentratIons of 72,415 ug/m3 - 498,385 ug/m3 Abnormal electroencephalograms (BEGs) have been observed ill workers exposed to styrene levels above 132,050 ug/m3. In a clinIcal study, effects on balance and coordinatIon have been observed in subjects followmg exposure to styrene air concentratIons of 421,710 ug/m3 for several hours In one occupatIonal study, exposure to styrene was accurately determmed by testIng for breakdown products of styrene in the unne. TIns study provided a better indication that the observed health effects were related to styrene exposure. Verbal learmng skills were sigmficantly imparred in workers exposed over several years to daily concentratIons of styrene greater than 106,493 ug/m3. ThIs study has been used by the Environmental ProtectIon Agency (EP A) to calculate a Reference ConcentratIon (RfC) An RfC is a level below whIch no adverse health effects are expected from a hfetrme of exposure EP A's RfC for styrene IS 1000 ug/ m3 Although some of the estunated short-term concentratIons rn the VIClTIlty of the facilitIes ill Yelm are close to the Rfe, arr concentratIOns are not expected to perSIst long enough to affect the nervous system. StudIes have also shown that styrene may affect parts of the body beSIdes the central nervous system. OccupatIOnal styrene exposure has been aSSOCIated WIth unparred nerve functIon ill lower lImbs at 21,300 - 532,463 ug/m3 OccupatIonal studIes on female workers have also suggested that styrene may affect development and reproductIon. Cancer studies of worker populatIons exposed to styrene suggest a possible link wIth leukemIa and other cancers, but other studies have not confmned tlns. In additIon, exposure to styrene ill arr at concentrations greater than 425,970 ug/m3 has been assocIated WIth some cancers ill laboratory arumals but these studIes have not been conclusIve CONCLUSIONS The estunated 24 hour average concentratIons of styrene ill arr modeled by OAPCA are generally lower than EPA's RfC of 1000 ug/m3 Therefore, breathIng styrene in areas near the facilities, over a prolonged penod of tune, IS unlikely to cause effects on the nervous system. The estunated lO rrunute average concentratIons of styrene are lngher than the 24 hour averages, because the 10 rrunute averages represent peak concentratIons. There IS lIttle tOXICIty mformatIon on short-term exposures to styrene However, mfrequent InhalatIon of styrene at levels modeled near the facilitIes IS unlikely to result m health unpacts smce the modeled levels are close to EP A's RfC of 1000 ug/ m3 The odor threshold of 204 ug/m3 IS exceeded up to a 6 mile ramus from the facility Since people will be able to smell styrene, some people may fmd tlns odor unpleasant and may respond to It adversely Attachment .- REFERENCES ATSDR TOXIcolOgIcal ProfIle, 1992 EPA, Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS), 1994 APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The OlympIC Air PollutIon Control Authonty (OAPCA) enforces Local, State, and Federal arr pollutIOn regulatIons.

SCREEN uses errussIOn rate and other mfonnatIOn to compute ambIent (outsIde arr) concentratIOn. It IS lITlportant to realize that a given concentratIOn may not be umform. It may be illgh one rrunute and low the next, AIr Impacts are expressed as an average concentratIon over a penod of tlITle. Values were calculated for an average tIme of 24 hours and for 10 rrunutes. The 10 mmute tlITle was used for odor lTIlpacts. The 24 hour average corresponds to the ASlL averagmg time for aIr tOXlCS, The concentratIOn IS expressed as rrucrograms per CUbIC meter of arr A rrucrogram IS 1 millionth of a gram. A CUbIC meter IS one - thtrd larger than a CUbIC yard. Odor lITlpact values may be compared to the odor threshold.

In cooperation with the state Departments of Health and Ecology and Thurston County Environmental Health, OAPCA has been working to address these concerns. The purpose of this report is to share with complainants information gathered by OAPCA in order to assess the extent of the problem and make a decision on how best to address the problem. The report is divided into two parts: a summary of styrene health effects and an outline of the technical study performed to identify the scope of the problem. The technical section of this report attempts to simplify some very complex procedures used by OAPCA staff. These procedures were used to detemrin,e the direction and distance from the two fiberglass plants at which styrene can be detected and cause health impacts. OAPCA regulations and enforcement options are presented to demonstrate the agency's complaint tracking system and to descn"be the agency's source of authority to control styrene emissions. The health section describes what is currently known about the health effects of styrene and, based on the rmdings in the technical study, estimates the impact of local styrene emissions on Yelm residents. August 16, 1994 TO: Ann Butler, Education Outreach Specialist Department of Ecology Southwest Regional Office Air Quality Section FROM: Denise Laflamme, Toxicologist Environmental Health Assessment Section Harriet Ammann, Lead Toxicologist Environmental Epidemiology Toxicology Section SUBJECT: Summary Of Styrene Health Effects Here is a short summary of styrene health effects for our report to the residents of Yelm. We changed the units to ugfm3 and added a conclusions section, per the workgroup's comments. Additionally, I have attached a short description of the ASIL, which we used in the Northport report and which may- also be appropriate in Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority's (OAPCA) discussion. Please contact us with any questions about this information. INTRODUCTION Styrene is emitted to the air from both Hytec and Amtec as part of their manufacturing processes. The following is a summary of information on the health effects of styrene focusing on those related to exposures through air. The air concentrations at which health effects have been observed are provided, where available. These are given to allow a comparison with the styrene air concentrations estimated for the area surrounding the facilities in Yelm. Pure styrene is a colorless liquid which evaporates quickly and has a characteristic sweet smell at low concentrations. Different people smell styrene at different levels, but generally people can smell styrene at concentrations as low as approximately 204 ug/m3, which is referred to as the odor threshold. Based on modeling conducted by OAPCA, short-term outdoor air concentrations of styrene close to the Hytec facility ~~Yt~ .\~'- -~ (6 mile radius) is estimated to be 390 uglm3. Since this concentration is greater than the odor threshold, it is not unexpected that people have reported styrene odors in that area. STYRENE IlEALm EFFECTS Much of the information available on the health effects of styrene comes from studies which evaluated workers in industries that use styrene. Workers are exposed differently to styrene than are people living near the facilities in Yelm. For example, workers are exposed to higher concentrations of styrene in the workplace than would be expected for people living near the facilities in Yelm. Additionally, workers are exposed constantly during working hours for many years, whereas people living near the facilities in Yelm will generally breathe styrene on a short-term basis. Furthermore, studies which have evaluated the health of worker populations are complicated by the presence of other chemicals in the workplace. Because of this, it is often difficult to determine if the observed health effects in workers can be attributed to styrene. In addition to occupational studies, there is also some information on the toxicity of styrene based on laboratory animal studies. Most inhaled styrene is absorbed into the body where it mainly distnoutes into fat. Styrene does not remain stored in the body fat for very long as most styrene is excreted in the urine over several days. Studies on workers chronically exposed to styrene in the workplace have shown that styrene affects the central nervous system. These studies have reported changes in central nervous system function such as mood changes, tiredness, and slowed reaction times, at styrene air concentrations of 72,415 uglm3 - 498,385 uglm3. Abnormal electroencephalograms (BEGs) have been observed in workers exposed to styrene levels above 132,050 uglm3. In a clinical study, effects on balance and coordination have been observed in subjects following exposure to styrene air concentrations of 421,710 ug/m3 for several hours. In one occupational study, exposure to styrene was accurately detennined by testing for breakdown products of styrene in the urine. This study provided a better indication that the observed health effects were related to styrene exposure. Verbal learning skills were significantly impaired in workers exposed over several years to daily concentrations of styrene greater than 106,493 ug/m3. This study has been used by the Environmental Protection Agency (EP A) to calculate a Reference Concentration (RfC). An RfC is a level below which no adverse health effects are expected from a lifetime of exposure. EPA's RfC for styrene is 1000 ug/m3. Although some of the estimated short-term concentrations in the vicinity of the facilities in YeIm are close to the RfC, air concentrations are not expected to persist long enough to affect the nervous system. Studies have also shown that styrene may affect parts of the body besides the central nervous system. Occupational styrene exposure has been associated with impaired '? I nerve function in lower limbs at 21,300 - 532,463 ug/m3. Occupational studies on I female workers have also suggested that styrene may affect development and reproduction. Cancer studies of worIcJr populations exposed to styrene suggest a possible link with leukemia and other c?ncers, but other studies have not confirmed this. In addition, exposure to styrene in air at concentrations greater than 425,970 uglm3 has been associated with some Jancers in laboratory animals but these studies have not been conclusive. CONCLUSIONS The estimated 24 hour average concentptions of styrene in air modeled by OAPCA are generally lower than EPA's RfC o~ 1000 ug/m3. Therefore, breathing styrene in areas near the facilities, over a prolonged period of time, is unlikely to cause effects on the nervous system. I The estimated 10 minute average concJntrations of styrene are higher than the 24 hour averages, because the 10 minute a~erages represent peak concentrations. There is little toxicity information on short-tek exposures to styrene. However, infrequent inhalation of styrene at leveis modeled hear the facilities is unlikely to result in health impacts since the modeled levels are clbse to EPA's RfC of 1000 ug/m3. I I The odor threshold of 204 uglm3 is exdeeded up to a 6 mile radius from the facility. Since people will be able to smell styrehe, some people may fmd this odor unpleasant and may respond to it adversely.

EMISSIONS AND AIR QUALITY IMPAcrS OF STYRENE IN THE YELM AREA OAPCA 7 n.O/94 This section presents the emissions and the air quality impacts (mc1uding odor) of styrene in the city ofYelm. Before reading this, review the section on Applicable Regulations - Air Toxics for an explanation of ASll.'s. 1. STYRENE EMISSIONS. The term <<styrene emissions" means the total amount of the compound styrene ( C~sCH=CH2 ) emitted from the plant through vents, stacks, and fugitive leaks (e.g. through doors and cracks in the building). .:;- 2. AIR IMP ACTS The EP A computer model, SCREEN was used to estimate styrene concentrations at specified distances from each plant. SCREEN uses emission rate and other information to compute ambient (outside air) concentration. It is imPOrt3nt to realize that a given concentration may not be uniform: it may be lugh one minute and low the next. A1r impacts are expressed as an average concentration over a penod of time. Values were calculated for an average time of 24 hours and for 10 minutes. The 10 minute time was used for odor impacts. The 24 hour average corresponds to the ASlL averaging time for air taxies. The concentration is expressed as micrograms per cubic meter of air. A microgram is 1 rnilli9nth of a gram. A cubic meter is one - third larger than a cubic yard. Odor impact values may be compared to the odor threshold. The odor threshold is the lowest concentration of a chemical that an average person may smell. 8 ., ~ -1S ;.. . ...,,- ...;."

Modeling results indicate that Lasco/Hytec styrene emissions may exceed the odor threshold at over 6 miles from the plant. Odor impacts could result at the Fort Stevens Elementary School and the Yelm Middle School. If the plant were built today (new source) the ASIL screening value could be exceeded in an area closer than 0.22 miles from the plant. Under current regulations the ASIL screening value does not apply to existing sources. The much smaller Amtech Inc. facility was also modeled. The results indicated that Amtech styrene emissions could cause odor impacts at the Yelm Middle School and that the ASIL screening value could be exceeded within 300 feet of the plant. 9 -:^ ~ ; . . , OAPCA ENFORCEMENT , , , , L Complaint Forms: i, OAPCA has two "levels" of ~mplaint forms:.

Jean James expressed her concern about the emissions from Lasco. After speaking with individuals at the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority, Department of Ecology and Sierra Club she determined that styrene, while not required by the EPA to be monitored, was on the list of compounds targeted by the Washington Toxic Coalition as being a carcinogen and causing birth defects. She questioned the logic in not allowing people to use wood stoves to keep their homes heated during weather inversions but allowing industrial emissions to continue during such periods. She indicated that she doesn't want to shut down Lasco, but felt that the issue needed to be addressed. Lyle Sundsmo, Lasco, Industries, stated that styrene had been studied for many years and that it had not been determined that it is a carcinogen. In the late 1980s, OSHA/National Institute for Occupational Health and an international panel of experts concluded that styrene is not a carcinogen. He explained that the compound will on a clear, sunny day biodegrade into carbon dioxide and water in a few hours. He also explained that technology exists to neutralize the associated odor, but that due to contradictions in Washington State Law, Lasco has not been ~c able to take advantage of the technology. Ly Ie Sundsmo and Jean James agreed to work together in obtaining additional information on available technology and in determining appropriate contacts. PAGE 1 Mayor Wolf requested that Shelly Badger and Don Miller ~~ - ',_ together to determine the role of the City in this issue~~~~ .~~J thanked those involved for their input and involvement. 6. Barb Woods requested that future meeting agendas be available earlier and that they be posted in various locations around the city. She would also like to see public notices appear in the paper in a text format in addition to the required legal form. Mayor Wolf explained that it was not uncommon to have only one or two items on the agenda two weeks pr ior to the meeting and that the agenda can change daily. Agendas could be posted in some locations. Agnes colombo added that the city will be looking at purchasing an outdoor bulletin board, during the '94 budgeting process and that anyone wishing to receive an agenda for posting or for their own use could be added to the city's mailing lists. John Thompson added that he believed that the time was approaching when the city could pick and choose which companies could come into the city. He also mentioned how much he enjoyed Yelm's presentation at the last Chamber of Commerce meeting. Barb Woods stated that King County had recently adopted a bicycle helmet law and that she would like to see a similar ordinance here. Discussion took place concerning the practicality of enforcement of such an ordinance. Chief Dunnam added that such an ordinance would apply only to adults and that the bike rodeo was held each year in an attempt to teach children bicycle safety. Adam Rivas questioned enforcement and added that with the burden on police departments due to increased crime, gang activity etc. he wasn't sure this would be the best use of available resources. Mayor Wolf requested that staff contact AWC to obtain a copy of the King County Ordinance. Barb Wood questioned progress on the Yelm Creek/Ft. Stevens footbridge and requested that the city consideration installation of a water spigot in the area. \ \ Shelly Badger explained that the design had been completed and the grant extended. Fort Lewis will perform the work. Mayor Wolf added that she felt a combination water spigot/fountain would be a good addition and staff could look into the possibility. ,j v-_ 7 .

II Other ~Iy' neurotoxic substances Include Industrial chemicals, foodS;:fdOcf8ddltlVes, costlietto IngroorentS;8tU8daii.ig!(them'peUtlc.:":dnJgS;8iid naturally occurring substances such as lead and mercury. OTA cited EPA's recently developed Toxic Release Inventory (TRI), In whlch OTA found that 17 9' the top 25 TRI substances released Into the environment are potentially neurotoxic - meaning that at high enough levels of exposure, the substances can adversely affect the structure or function of the nervous system. . Adverse health effects depend strongly on the toxicity of the substance and thO! degree to which Individuals are exposed. Many substances that have neurotoxic potential appear to be harmless at low doses, but determining safe levels of exposure Is often dlfflcult For example. over the past two decades scientists have repeatedly lowered the level at which they believe lead can exert adverse effects on the developing nervous systems. Concern about the threat neurotoxic substances pose to the public health has recently escalated because of new evidence that toxic substances may contribute to neurological o~ ~svcpJatrlc dlsorder~ Researchers have discovered that exposure to small amounts of MPTP, a compound that may be created during the unclt production of synthetic heroin, can Induce the symptoms of Parkinson's disease (e.g., tremors, loss of muscular control) within one to two weeks. Evldence'also exists that environmental agents. are responsible for recent Increases In amyotrophic IcU~taI~'~1! ~f!Od f!ijc~ilsbn'saiSiiise"'lI1lt11e1der1y. HoWever, the biochemical and physiological events linking exposure to toxic substances and the development of some neurological disorders are not well understood, and greater testing and research are needed to clarify the apparent relationship. Despite malor Federal efforts and consldemble progress In reducing some sources of lead, millions of American children have levels of lead In their blood that are adversely affecting their nervous systems. MaJor sources of exposure that the nation must address Include lead-based paint In older homes and lead In drinking water. According to OTA.lead polsonlng'ls a sRent epidemic that Is Insidiously damaging the nervous systems of a significant proportion of the nation's children. (more) -2- The costs of greater testing for neurotoxicity may be small compared to the costs of caring for those Injured by neurotoxic chemicals, workers' compensation claims, and litigation resulting from Injury OT A cited a 1985 EP A report which predicted that the total health benefits of reducing the neurotoxic effects of lead on U.S. chndren would amount to more than $500 million annually between 1986 and 1988 alone. Those facing the highest risk from neurotoxic chemicals are Individuals with developing and declining nervous systems such as fetuses, children, and the elderly. Some Industrial and agricultural workers are also particularly vulnerable because they can be exposed to relatively high levels of neurotoxic chemicals. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has identified neurotoxic disorders as one of the nation's ten leading causes of work-related disease and Injury, and says that millions of U.S. workers are regularly exposed to neurotoxic substances. However, recognizing adverse neurotoxic effGctscan be difficult. For example, damage to the nervous system may go undetected because the symptoms are varied and often lead to subtle changes. Adverse effects range from Impaired movement. anxiety, and confusion to memory loss, convulsions, and death. The effects may be evident Immediately, or may not surface for months or years. According to OTA, drug abuse Is permanently damaging the nervous systems of mar,y Americans. Recent studies suggest that thousands of Infants suffer pennanent neurological damage due to drug abuse by their mothers. Babies born to mothers who abuse cocaine may suffer abnonnal development of the nervous system. Impaired motor sknts and reflexes, and seizures. Some therapeutic drugs ma~ also adversely affect the nervous system. OT A cited a recent study that found that phenobarbital, a jrug frequently administered to young children to prevent seizures caused by fevers, may Interlere "" ith cognitive development. Neurotoxicity research and testing programs are conducted primarily at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration (ADAMHA), the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and the Food and Drug Administration (FAA). In some cases, neurotoxicity programs within these agencies have been expanded as a result of Increased concern, but In general OT A found that Federal programs are of Insufficient size and scope to address the problems created by neurotoxic substances. In addition, OTA found that Federal research and regulatory programs are not well coordinated. Representatives from several Federal agencies met at an OTA/EPA. sponsored workshop In the spring of 1989 and subsequently took Initial steps to organize a federal Interagency Committee on Neurotoxicology to foster Increased Interaction among Federal agencies responsible for research and regulatory programs. The Federal response to neurotoxicity Is fragmented by differences In scientific Judgment and an Inconsistent regulatory response. OTA notes that the programs of some agencies require routine testing of all chemicals submitted for review while the programs of other agencies must establish some probability of unacceptable risk before the manufacturer can be required to submit data. The neurotoxic potential of chemicals Is difficult to predict, and any regulatory scheme that does not routinely test for neurotoxicity may not offer sufficient protection. OTA says that regulatory and research programs for neurotoxicology at the Food and Drug Administration, In particular, need Improvement. Federal regulations allow pesticide manufacturers to export banned, severely restricted, or never- registered substances that cannQt be sold In the U.S. Sometimes these pesticides are used on food crops that are Imported back Into the United States, completing what may be called a .clrcle of poison.. OT A lists several options that could better safeguard the International community from particularly toxic pesticides, Including greater responslbnlty on the part of chemical manufacturers, development of alternative methods of pest control, and Initiation of International programs to address neurotoxicity concerns: In Its report, OT A outlines a wide variety of actions. that Congress might take to assure a better - Federal response to the problem. Among the options are substantial Increases In funding for research, toxicity testing, and monitoring; enhanced regulatory programs, Improved Federal Interagency (more) '.~ -)- coordination, Increased support for training programs of research and health care professionals, better communication of toxicological Information to workers and the public, and greater support for International regulatory and research programs. The OTA report, Neurotoxicity: Identifylna and Controlllna Poisons of the Nervous System, was prepared for the Hous. Committees on Energy and Commerce; Science, Space, and Technology; Appropriations; Veterans Affairs; and the Senate Subcommittee on Science, Technology, and Space, The report describes the scope of the public health threat posed by neurotoxic substances; Federal research, testing, monitoring, and regulatory programs to address it; and the economic considerations associated with testing and programs. OTA Is a non-partisan analytical agency that serves the U.S. Congress. Its purpose Is to aid Congress In dealing with the complex and often highly technical Issues that Increasingly confront our society. The report Is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO), Superintendent of Documenta, Washington, D.C., 20402; phone (202) 783-3238. The GPO stock number Is #052-003- 01184-1; the price Is $15.00. CONGRESSIONAL QUOTES Sen. Albert Gore. Jr. CD-TN\. Chairman. Subcommittee on Science. Technoloav. and Soace. Committee on Commerce. Science. and Transoortatlon: "Chronic neurotoxicity presents a health risk every bit as large and as tragic as cancer, yet, as this report reveals, almost nothing Is being done about It. As of today, that will change. All Americans must be Immediately made aware of this hidden danger, and our Federal regulatory systems must be redesigned to focus attention on this grave risk. . "five million Americans suffer from dementlas such as A1zhelmers disease. Ten times as many people are affected now as were at the turn of the century EPA lists more than 65,000 toxic chemicals in use In the United States today, a number that Is growing by 1,500 each year. Now comes the startling news that there Is a connection. In one Instance alone more than two million Americans were exposed to toxic substances that may result In an A1zhelmer-llke disease today. Yet our regulatory system Is virtually blind to this risk. Action Is urgently needed: Sen. Harry Reid CD-NY). Subcommittee on leolslatlve Branch. Committee on Aooropriations: "It Is becomIng Increasingly clear that basing a regulatory decision solely on whether or not a toxic substances cause cancer can be shortsighted and dangerous. In order to adequately protect the public health, Federal regulatory and research agencies must focus more attention on the noncancer health risks posed by hazardous chemicals, partlgular1y neurotoxicity. "There are some 65,000 chemicals In the Environmental Protection Agency's Inventory of toxic substances. Very few have undergone comprehensive testing to evaluate their toxicity. Inadequate testing and regulatory Inaction threaten every American's right to live and work In a safe environment "Our subcommittee's hearings over the past months aM OTA's report Indicate that the regulatory safety net that Is Intended to protect the public from toxic cheml~ls Is In need of repair. It Is time to take a critical look at the way we regulate toxic substances. We must devise Innovative, fair, and eClJT10mlcally sound regulatory approaches to provide the public with the level of health protection they expect."

ThIs Is the first of four special reports requested by myself and several other members to examine the future of the neuroscIences durIng the -Decade of the Braln.- -rhls Important report detans the capricious and malicious Impact of neurotoxic substances and proposes several practical recommendations to minimize human exposure to them. The challenge In controlling neurotoxic substances Is Immense, but 1 will work towards legislation to protect the public from these deadly agents. ""e 1990s Is both the Decade of the Brain and the decade of the environment. The American people are calling upon Congress and the President for quIcker nctlon on health security and environmental protection. With this report, OT A has made a sl,nlflcant contribution to the public debate. -I congratulate Director John Gibbons and his able staff for this timely assessment. I Join my colleagues In the Congress In looking forward to the next three r6ports on the neurosciences.- Reo. John 0, Dlnoell (D-Mn. Chairman. Committee on Enerav and Commerce: -At the same time that scientists are makIng Important breakthroughs In our understanding of the nervous system, we have also come to realize that many of the chemIcals we encounter In everyday life can cause long-term neurotoxic effects. -It will be Increasingly Important to understand these neurotoxic effects-many of which are quite subtle-and how they mIght be mitigated. To date, the regulatory structure has focused almost totally on carcInogenic and teratogenic effects. ""e OT A has done a fine Job of assessing for us the risks posed by neurotoxic substances and evaluating the federal research and regulatory programs now In place to address these risks. -As the Congress and others begin to address these Issues, this new report will serve as a valuable ref~rence. - Reo. Robert A. Roe (O-NJl. ChaIrman. CommIttee on Seace. Science. and Technoloav: -Neurotoxic chemicals have crippled thousands of men, women, and chUdren at great social and economic cost to this nation. The OT A report points out how we can defend our population against these chemicals If we have the will to do so. It's time we develop new tests for neurotoxicity, promote research Into the causes and treatments of neurotoxic effects, and use our regulatory programs to reduce human and environmental exposure to neurotoxic chemicals.. ### !B[gEkE~ 23'[,01,.
