August 10, 2016Windy conditions recently caused an electrical conduit anchored into the concrete retaining wall of the Hazardous Chemical Storage Facility, Building CFA-637, to fall and disconnect power from the facility. Repair of the retaining wall to restore facility power is not possible due to the age and condition of the facility, and waste handling operations need to be relocated. The proposed action is to move CFA-637 waste handling operations to CFA-674, the Roads and Grounds and Materials Storage building. CFA-674 has a fire sprinkler system, overhead doors, loading docks, concrete floors, phone and data, restrooms, and adequate space. However, the facility would require some modifications.
