These bags and bottles were found to be empty but did <br /> contain residual amounts of chemical wastes. <br /> Near the rear of the dumpster on the bottom I located a 5 gallon <br /> plastic pail which appeared to be full. This container weighed <br /> approximately 40 pounds and was removed for further sampling. This <br /> pail was later found to contain liquid waste products, which were <br /> sampled. <br /> A large bag of white powder was located by Dennis Fields of OES <br /> near the rear bottom center of the dumpster. The bag was too heavy <br /> to remove and a sample was taken of this material directly from the <br /> bag. <br /> At approximately 12:00 noon I exited the dumpster and went through <br /> decontamination. During the decontamination process it was found <br /> that the suit I was wearing had a PH of 11. This suit was <br /> considered contaminated and was discarded. I also discarded two <br /> respirator cartridges which I had been using. <br /> Chemicals found during the investigation were sorted, logged and <br /> labeled by Kirk Lund of OES. Dave Caraveo of OES Haz Cated, these <br /> materials prior to their being transported to a State certified <br /> laboratory under a chain of custody. <br />
