A red stained wipe was observed in the trash in Building 1 A <br /> CORRECTIVE ACTION <br /> The wipe was removed from the trash at the time of inspection and placed into <br /> the 6 gallon solvent wipe container.

A partially full 946 ml container of PVC cement was observed in the trash in <br /> Building 3. <br /> CORRECTIVE ACTION <br /> To the best of our knowledge, this was placed in the trash by outside <br /> contractors. The PVC cement was removed from the trash and disposed of on <br /> Manifest #000078788DAT, line item 4. Hazardous waste management training <br /> was conducted by NES on August 28, 2013. We will be meeting with all <br /> outside contractors and determine what hazardous materials they will bring <br /> onsite and inform them of how to properly dispose of them prior to performing <br /> the work. <br /> 3. A sanding pad was observed in the trash can in Building 3; according to the <br /> employee in that section, the pad was contaminated with chromium and <br /> should have been placed in the hazardous waste container. <br /> CORRECTIVE ACTION <br /> The employee incorrectly stated that the pad was contaminated with chromium. <br /> The process requires wet sanding and rinsing with water prior to the application <br /> of the chromium solution (corrosion inhibitor). Once the part is dipped into the <br /> chromium solution there is no sanding as it will remove the chromium solution. <br /> 4.
