LLNL-AM-428479 <br /> F. Request the Fire Department to contact the ES&H Team Environmental <br /> Analyst, the Site 300 ES&H Team Deputy Leader, and the H&S Technician. <br /> 3. Give emergency aid to the injured, if possible. <br /> 4. Notify the WAA Coordinator. <br /> 4.2.4.3 Removal of Liquids in Secondary Containment <br /> All liquid waste containers are stored on secondary containment pallets to contain <br /> accidental releases. Depending on the source of liquid, the liquid wastes may be <br /> hazardous, radioactive, mixed or nonhazardous. When liquids are observed in <br /> secondary containment, the source of the liquid must be determined. If the liquid is <br /> determined to be rainwater, contact the RHWM Tech for assistance with removal. <br /> However, the amount of rainwater collected can and should be kept to a minimum <br /> through proper preventive measures such as covering the waste containers and <br /> secondary containment pallets stored in an uncovered area with plastic or tarps prior to <br /> the rainfall. <br /> Liquids within secondary containment must be removed in a timely manner. Large <br /> volumes of liquid are pumped into appropriate containers, and small volumes of liquid <br /> are absorbed with cloth, paper rags or dry sorb material that is collected into appropriate <br /> containers. All liquids captured in berms are collected, sampled, and analyzed unless <br /> the source of a spill is readily traceable. Waste sampling and analysis are not <br /> necessary if the waste contents are known. Contact the ES&H Team Environmental <br /> Analyst for assistance. <br /> 4.2.4.4 Removal of Released Waste Solids <br /> If hazardous or mixed solid waste is released, the waste will be repackaged and left in <br /> the WAA or transferred to the permitted onsite DTSC authorized facility for future <br /> shipment offsite to a permitted TSDF. <br /> 4.2.4.5 Waste-Handling Equipment Failure <br /> The only pieces of equipment that may be operated at any time in a WAA are a pallet <br /> jack, a forklift, a hydraulic drum handler, or a drum dolly. As a result, there are only a <br /> few means by which equipment failure could have an impact on a WAA. If the <br /> equipment damages a container within the WAA, the incident shall be handled as <br /> described in Section 4.2.4. If the forklift or hydraulic drum handler is damaged and <br /> releases mechanical fluids such as oil or fuel, the operator shall turn off the equipment <br /> to minimize fluid loss. The incident shall be handled as a small incident, as previously <br /> described. In either situation, the equipment shall be decontaminated (see Section <br /> 4.3.1), repaired or replaced, if necessary. <br /> S300 WAA Contingency Plan 16 September2018 <br />
