• Employee Health& Safety Implications-There are no projected effects or detriments to employee health and safety. All safety standards would continue to be met with improved work practices. There is a potential for a positive effect on employee morale with the development of an incentive program for the successful completion of their goals. • State, Local, and Federal Law Compliance -All improved procedures would continue compliance with all regulations. • Releases &!Discharges -There would be a reduction in the overall hazardous paint waste generated. There would be no transference of emissions and discharges to any other environmental media-air,water,or land- as a result of the improved work practices and vendor supplied containers. The implementation of measures(2), (3), and(4) would be the most cost effective, economically feasible, and realistically achievable means to successfully reduce the amount of hazardous paint waste generated by Star Buildings. Therefore the three measures will be implemented by the company. (e) A timetable for making reasonable and measurable progress in implementation of the selected measures for the hazardous paint waste stream: A reasonable timeline for implementing measure (2) would be a six month time period to evaluate the current work practices, and develop training materials for and then implement the training process for three shifts of employees. Star Buildings will strive to meet this milestone by the end of January, 2004. There will undoubtedly be a learning curve for employees and periodic review of the successful implementation of improved work practices should be done twice per year. A reasonable and achievable goal for the implementing measure (3) the development and implementation of an incentives program that demonstrates management's commitment to the reduction of hazardous waste should be accomplished in the same time frame. A yearly review of the success of the incentives program should be done. A reasonable goal for the implementation of measure (4) would be in the six month to one year time frame. Based on the vendor's ability to deliver product in the requested type of cotainers (see Item#4 above) and the cost effectiveness of such delivery from the vendor, the time frame may be accelerated or delayed. Periodic review of all vendor supplies should be done on a yearly basis to assure the best type of container delivery is on-going. STAR Buildings commits to research into new technologies on a continuing basis with a yearly review of processes. (f) A four year numerical goal for reducing the generation of hazardous waste streams through he selected measures: For the four year time period of June 1, 2003 through May 30, 2007, Star Buildings will strive for a 5% reduction in the generation of hazardous paint waste by source reduction easures specified in the Plan. As business is expected to increase approximately 15%per ear during that time frame, a percentage comparison of total 13
