APPENDIX E<br />

The New Mexico Environmental Department (NMED) also defines petroleum-contaminated soil (PCS)<br />

as "Special Waste" if the sum of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene isomer concentrations is<br />

greater than 500 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg), with benzene individually greater than 10 mg/Kg,<br />

and total petroleum hydrocarbon concentration greater than 1,000 mg/Kg.<br />

1.4 Assumptions<br />

The WMP is based on the field sampling and analysis requirements set forth in the addenda to the Base-<br />

Wide Plan (BWP), the Field Sampling Plan (FSP), (Appendix A of the BWP), the health and safety<br />

requirements set forth in the Base-Wide Health and Safety Plan (BWHSP) (Appendix F of the BWP), the<br />

Contractor’s Site-Specific Safety and Health Plan (SSHP) and the following assumptions:<br />

Hazardous waste determinations will be made through generator knowledge or testing (40 CFR<br />

262.11).<br />

Kirtland AFB is the generator and will review and approve the waste determinations and the<br />

waste codes proposed for hazardous waste.<br />

Kirtland AFB will identify any potential listed waste on the site by providing process<br />

knowledge information and/or existing analytical data.<br />

Kirtland AFB will review and approve the treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs)<br />

that are proposed for offsite waste storage, treatment, and/or disposal.<br />

Kirtland AFB will sign all waste documentation, including state-approved forms, TSDF waste<br />

profile sheets, RCRA Land Disposal Restriction (LDR) certifications, manifests, and shipping<br />

papers. PPE will be treated as potentially contaminated waste unless generator knowledge<br />

indicates otherwise.<br />

Non-hazardous trash will be double-bagged, containerized, and kept segregated from<br />

chemically contaminated waste and will be disposed in an approved landfill.<br />

1.5 IDW Minimization<br />

A primary goal of the WMP is to minimize, to a practical extent, the volume of waste that will be<br />

generated, stored, and removed from the site for disposal. In order to minimize the volume of waste, the<br />

following general rules will be applied:<br />

Do not contaminate materials unnecessarily.<br />

― Plan work ahead, based on the work procedure to be used.<br />

― Take only the material (i.e., chemicals) needed to perform the work activity.<br />

Additional material can be brought to the work location if it is found to be necessary.<br />

Materials can be stored in large containers but the smallest reasonable container will be<br />

used to transport the material to the location where it is needed.<br />

― Maintain cleaning and extra sampling supplies outside any potentially contaminated area<br />

to keep them clean and to minimize additional waste generation.<br />
