RE: Welsh Road/Bartaan Landfill Superfund Site Administrative Order for Remedial Action (Docket No. III-99-012-DC)

Dear Mr. Klanchar:

I. Introduction

On or about March 19, 1999, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA" or the "Agency") issued an Administrative Order for Remedial Action (Docket No. III-99-012-DC) (the "Order") to fourteen (14) respondents (collectively, the "Respondents"), including Ecolaire Incorporated ("Ecolaire"), directing those parties to, inter .alia, implement certain remedial activities at the Welsh Road Superfund Site located in Chester and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania (the "Site"). Pursuant to Section XXV of the Order, EPA directed each Respondent to provide notice to EPA's Remedial Project Manager stating whether the Respondents would comply with the terms of the Order. Although the Order required such notice to be provided no later than two (2) days after the effective date of the Order, through mutual agreement among the parties, this deadline was extended to May 17, 1999. The purpose of this letter is to communicate Ecolaire's current intentions with respect to the Order, and, subject to the reservations below, to set forth a description of the "sufficient cause" defenses that are known to Ecolaire at the time of this letter. See Sections 106 and 107 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), 42 U.S.C. §§9606;and 9607." """

II. General Objections And Reservation of Rights

As an initial matter, Ecolaire notes that no provision of CERCLA requires a Section 106 Order respondent to outline its "sufficient cause" defenses at the time that the Order is issued. Ecolaire is providing the following information at this time as acpurtesy to the Agency, and in hopes that the Agency will reconsider its previous decision to name Ecolaire_as a Respondent to the subject Order. However, by providing this notice at this time, Ecolaire.does not waive, and specifically reserves its right to raise additional or different objections and defenses to this Order at some later time, and to provide additional information and evidence in support of any position that it may take in the future. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing reservation. Ecolaire specifically reserves and does not, by providing this notice, waive its rights to assert any arguments. defenses, objections, positions or claims that would demonstrate sufficient cause for noncompliance with all or portions of the Order pursuant to Sections 106 and/or 107 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. §§9606 and/or 9607, or that would support its belief that all or portions of the Order are arbitrary and capricious orotherwise not in accordance with law. Moreover, neither this letter, nor any information contained herein, shall constitute an admission by Ecolaire with respect to the Site for any purpose, including third party claims or future enforcement proceedings, and Ecolaire reserves all rights, claims and defenses.that it may have, has had or will have-in the future regarding the matters addressed under the Order or related to the Site, whether under CERCLA or any other law.. Finally, by not specifically objecting to each finding or determination in the Order. Ecolaire is not admitting or conceding such findings or determinations, which Ecolaire specifically reserves the right to challenge in any future proceeding.

III. History of Contacts with the Agency

Ecolaire was first made aware of the above-captioned Site by letter dated June 20, 1991 from EPA. In that letter. Ecolaire was advised of its potential status as a responsible party at this Site, and was further requested to provide information in its possession regarding matters related to the Site. After conducting its own internal investigation, Ecolaire responded to this information request. indicating, inter alia, that Ecolaire's Allen-Sherman-Hoff Division had a contractual relationship with Mr. Barkman (or related entities) from approximately 1975 to 1985 for the collection and appropriate disposal of general "yard trash" from its Honey Brook, Pennsylvania facility. See Ecolaire's July 26, 1991 letter to EPA, attached hereto as Exhibit A. Ecolaire's investigation uncovered no information indicating that hazardous substances (or .any other materials for that matter) were disposed of at the Welsh Road Site. Following Ecolaire's response, nothing further was heard from EPA, leading Ecolaire to believe that the Agency had appropriately determined that Ecolaire was not a potentially responsible party ("PRP") at the Site.

In September 1997, EPA issued notice letters pursuant to Section 122(e) of CERCLA to several parties, including Ecolaire. In its letter, EPA invited. Ecolaire, either alone or as a member of

AR001726. l;rank Klanchar May 14. 1999 " " Page 3 - . _^_ ... -.,,-- ... - .,-,,_- a larger group of PRPs. to submit a "good faith proposal" to fund or perform certain remedial steps at the Site, and to reimburse EPA for certain past and future costs that allegedly have been incurred in connection with the Site. Shortly after receiving this Section. 122'(e) notice letter, Ecolaire contacted counsel for EPA in an effort to obtain any information the government had that lead it to believe that Ecolaire may be a PRP at the Site. See, Letter to C. Nadolski from L. Howard dated January 9. 1998. attached hereto as Exhibit B. After several delays. Ecolaire was provided with a one-page, two-paragraph summary of the "evidence" against if that apparently had been prepared h\ EPA's counsel.

Because of the extremely vague and inconsistent nature of the information provided to it. Ecolaire subsequently responded to EPA's Section I22(e) notice letter by advising EPA that it was unable to submit a good faith proposal to EPA at that time. See Letter to F. Klanchar from L. Howard dated January 27. 1998. attached hereto as Exhibit C (without enclosure). In its letter. Ecolaire noted that, to the extent that more complete information was provided that would indicate some nexus to the Site in question, Ecolaire would be willing to engage in further discussions with the Agency and/or other PRPs about an appropriate site response.

The day after Ecolaire responded to EPA's Section I22(e) notice letter, EPA provided the parties with copies of the various witness "interview summaries" that it believed created some nexus between the Respondents and the Welsh Road Landfill. See letter from C. Nadolski to P. Shaw dated January 28. 1998, attached hereto as Exhibit D (without enclosures). After reviewing this information. Ecolaire wrote to EPA on March 25, 1998 explaining its position that these unsubstantiated "interview summaries" provided no credible link between Ecolafre and the Site. and. if anything, provided support for Ecolaire's previous understanding of the facts -- namely, that general plant trash was picked up by Mr. Barkman's company and delivered to the local county landfill, and not the Welsh Road Site. See letter to C.. Nadoiski from L. Howard dated March 25, 1998. attached hereto as Exhibit E. In addition, Ecolaire noted that the two summaries that indicated some alleged connection between Ecolaire and the Site were replete with inconsistencies and credibility concerns. As a result, Ecolaire requested that EPA remove it from its list of PRPs for the Welsh Road Site. _.._ ... .._".: ...,:._. ."!

In October 199S, EPA wrote to several parties, including Ecolaire, indicating its intention to renew negotiationsTo implement the selected remedy at the Site. By letter dated October 26_ 1998, Ecolaire reiterated its position that insufficient information existed to demonstrate a link between Ecolaire's Honey Brook facility and the Welsh Road Landfill. See Exhibit F (without enclosures). Having received no further information from EPA that would alter Ecolaire's position. Ecolaire reiterated its request that EPA remove it from its list of PRPs. Ecolaire once again indicated that, to the extent some credible information was provided that would indicate a nexus to the Site in" question, Ecolaire would be willing to engage in further discussions with EPA.and/or other PRPs about further steps at the Site. No response from EPA was forthcoming until the subject Order was unceremoniously issued by EPA on March 19, .1999.

ROD 1727 Frank Klanchar ._..__...... _ . ..._....._...... May 14. 1999 Page 4 .. - . ..;^-—...... _.. -- --^^=-=^_^_-_——..- .

Ecolaire notes that just two days ago (nearly two months after issuance of the Administrative Order), EPA has provided the Respondents with copies of additional "interview summaries" prepared by EPA. See Letter to J, O'Dea from C. Nadolski dated May 11, 1999, attached hereto as Exhibit G (without enclosures). Such a belated disclosure of these "summaries" is patently unfair to all the Respondents, who have worked diligently to cooperate with the government in dealing with this Site. Notwithstanding the inequities of the situation, however, in reviewing these new "interview summaries," it becomes even more clear than before that EPA does not have sufficient information to establish a link between Ecolaire and the Welsh Road Site.

IV. Ecolaire Has Sufficient Cause to Not Comply With The Subject Order

EPA has been given substantial power under Section 106 of CERCLA. Upon a showing of an "imminent and substantial endangerment." EPA can order persons responsible under CERCLA to take steps to abate such endangerment. 42 U.S.C. §9606(a). Further. EPA can collect fines up to $27.500 per day and/or treble damages from responsible parties who, "without sufficient cause," fail or refuse to. comply with the order. See 42 U.S.C. .§§ 9606(b) and 9607(c). However, although EPA's powers under Section 106 are substantial, they are not limitless — a party who has "sufficient cause" not to comply with EPA's order will not be subject to these significant enforcement risks. As demonstrated below, Ecolaire believes that EPA has exceeded its authority under Section 106 in issuing the subject Order to Ecolaire, and accordingly, Ecolaire has sufficient cause to not comply with the Order.

A. The Order Is Unenforceable as to Ecolaire Because Ecolaire Is Not Liable under CERCLA.

In its Order, EPA alleges that "Ecolaire, as the successor to Allen-Sherman-Hoff Company, Inc.. arranged for the disposal of waste containing hazardous substances at the Welsh Road Site," and that as such, Ecolaire was liable pursuant to Section 107(a)(3) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. §9607(a)(3). See Order, SectionIII.B.4; :Section I_V_.Paragraph 6. However, as indicated in Section III. above and in the Exhibits attached to this letter, from the time that it began its investigation into this matter in 1991 until the present, Ecolaire has expressed its belief that insufficient information exists to demonstrate that it is a liable party'under CERCLA for conditions at the Site. Because EPA only has authority to issue Section 106 Orders to persons who are potentially liable under Section .1.07 pf CERCLA, the Order is unenforceable as to Ecolaire, and should be withdrawn. See, e.g., United States v. Hardage, 32 ERCJQ73,1078 (W.Okla. 1990) (to be entitled to relief under Section. 106_, the United States must prove liability under Section 107).

A ROD 1728 Frank Klanchar May 14. 1999 Page 5

I. No Credible Evidence Exists that Would Establish a Nexus Between Ecolaire and the Site.

As indicated in Ecolaire's 1991 Section 104(e) Response and subsequent correspondence. Ecolaire's Allen-Sherman-Hoff Division.opened its facility in Honey Broolt. Pennsylvania in 1975. The operations at this facility were in the nature of warehousing and assembly in connection with the supply of ash handling equipment and after-market products. In connection with these operations, it appears that for a number of years the Ecolaire facility had a contractual relationship with Mr. Barkman or related entities for the pick-up, transportation and appropriate disposal of general "yard" trash, including various cardboard, paper and other packing and strapping materials and wooden pallets. Ecolaire's investigation uncovered no information indicating that hazardous substances (or any other materials) were disposed of at the Welsh Road. Site. In fact, the majority of HPA's own witnesses support Ecolaire's understanding of the facts (r/r., that only general yard trash (e.g.. wooden skids, cardboard and plant trash) was picked up from the Ecolaire facility by Mr, Barkman's disposal company, and that these wastes were delivered to the Lanchester County Landfill).1 See, e.g.. Summaries of William Deihm, George Turner and David Anderson Interviews.

Notwithstanding the majority of available evidence, EPA appears to be reiving upon allegations from two individuals for its basis of naming Ecolaire to the subject Order. As . discussed below, however* one of these witnesses recently has recanted his testimony regarding. Ecolaire, while the other's statements are so incredible and inconsistent with well established facts thai they both lack any probative value at all.

First, in an "interview summary" attributed to Mr. Samuel Good dated July 17, 1990. certain allegations were made regarding the Ecolaire facility in Honey Brook.: Ecolaire need not dwell upon the several inconsistencies and infirmities contained in Mr. Good's hearsay statement, because he has since been deposed in the United States v. Barkman litigation. In his subsequent testimony, Mr. Good specifically denies that he hauled any drums or liquid wastes from ; the facility that EPA alleges is the Ecolaire facility.3 Deposition Transcript of Samuel Good dated

1 As noted by Ecolaire in previous correspondence, the Lanchester County Landfill u,jji; in closer pm\imil\ to the Lcolairc facility' than was the Welsh Road Landfill. " ^

In facuMr, Good does not appear to "refer to the AlIen-Sherman-HoiT facility by name. InsteadJt appears that EPA's investigators made ihejr own. assumptions regarding the identity of the "pipeline company" that Mr. Goadina) have discussed during his "interview."

Again, at no time during his testimony does Mn Good refer to Ecolaire or A.llen-She.rman-HolT._ Himover based upon previous descriptions provided b> EPA. Ecolaire assumes that thejacility that counsel for EPA was referring to in the deposition \vas the Ecolaire plant, Because Ecolaire did not have the opportunity to participate in this deposition, it rcscr\cs iill rights and objections it ma\ have in that regard.

May 4, 1998, pages.35-37; pages 53-55.. This information was provided to counsel for EPA by letter dated April 30. 1999. See Exhibit H.

The other uncorroborated, unchallenged witness statements that EPA appears . to rely upon in linking Ecolaire to the Site are those given by "Mr. William Klemmer in 1990 and 1991.4 In its earlier corresp'cndence to EPA. Ecolaire has identified how Mr. Klemmer's wildly inconsistent and speculative statements are not in accord with the facts that have been established, including facts that have been established through contemporaneous documentation created by the parties at the time. See e.g.. Exhibit E, Among the inconsistences noted in Mr. Klemmer's statements were the following:

• Ecolaire's facility was not a "pipeline company" as alleged by Mr. Klemmer. but * instead was a warehousing (and to a lesser extent, assembly) facility for components of ash handling systems. ...'."'.' ~_.

• Ecolaire's facility was located on Route 322 in Honey Brook. Pennsylvania, not Route 10, as Mr. Klemmer alleges. ~

• Contemporaneous documentation (as provided in Ecolaire's 1991 Section 104(e) Response, Exhibit A hereto) indicates that Mr. Barkman serviced one thirty (30) yard rolloff container on an '*on call" basis, as opposed to the three four (4) yard containers that Mr. Klemmer alleges were removed from the "pipeline manufacturer" as often as four times per'week.

• Ecolaire's Honey Brook facility operated only one shift per day, from 7:30 a.m. to 3;30-p.m., and was closed at nights. Mr. Klemmer's statement that he collected drummed wastes only at night is directly inconsistent with the facts.

• r During most, if not all, of Mr. Klemmer's alleged tenure with Mr. Barkman, Ecolaire has contemporaneous documentation indicating that the occasional hazardous wastes it generated were sent to a licensed facility, and not to the Welsh Road Landfill. See Exhibit A.

• Whereas Mr. Klemmer alleges that the waste stream from the "vpipe manufacturer" consisted of a significant amount of metal scrap, metal threading and shreddings. . most waste generated by Ecoiaire's warehousing/assembly facility were in the nature of packing materials^ not metallic scrap. More importantly, metal scrap reportedly

4 From a review of the "interview summaries" that Ecolaire has just received, it appears that Mr, Klarmier VULS again "interviewed" by EPA in 1996.. importantly. Allen-Sherman-Hoffis not even mentioned in Mr. Klemmer's "ne\\" statement......

flROUI730 Frank Klanchar May 14. 1999 Page?

was segregated at the Ecolaire facility so that it could be sold for value to local scrap dealers in the area, and was not thrown away.

In light of the foregoing inconsistencies^ no weight can be_given to the statements attributed to Mr, Klemmer. However, even if Mr. Klemmer's statements were to be believed, he apparently said that he picked up "one or two 55 gallon drums" from the Alien- SHerman-HofT facility "only once in a great while." Moreover, Mr. Klemmer admitted that he was unable to specify what the contents of these alleged one or two occasional drums might be.. It is axiomatic that without proof that these alleged drums contained hazardous substances, there can be no liability under CERCLA.

Finally. Ecolaire produced two documents with its .Section J.Q4(e) Response that indicate that Mr. Barkman may have picked up one (1) 40-gallon drum.of.xylol and mineral spirits from the Ecolaire facility in 1980. Importantly, no information exists that indicates that this one drum, even if it was picked up by Mr, Barkman. was disposed of at the Welsh Road Site. In fact, as noted above, the Welsh Road Landfill apparently was closed several years before the alleged transaction occurred. Moreover, Ecolaire understands that Mr. Barkman has denied that he took anv liquid wastes from the Ecolaire facility to the Welsh Road Site.5 Accordingly, this one alleged V transaction is not sufficient to establish a link between Ecolaire and the Welsh Road Site.

2. Because EPA Lacks Credible Evidence Linking it to the Site, Ecolaire has Sufficient Cause to Not Comply with the Order.

From the inception of CERCLA, it has been recognized that "sufficient cause" to not comply with a Section 106 Order would "encompass de_fenses such as the defense that the person who was subject of the [EPA] Order was not the party responsible under the act for the release of the hazardous substance . .. ." See the Remarks of Senator Stafford lauthor of CERCLA}, 126 Cong. Rec. at 30986 (November 24, 1980). In his remarks, Senator Stafford specifically noted that "sufficient cause" would exist when substantial facts were in question at the time the Order was issued, or if the party subject to the Order was not a substantial contributor to the release. Id (emphasis supplied). These same points were repeated by Congress in 1986 when CERCLA was reauthorized. See H.R. Rep. No. 253(1) 99th Cong., 2d Sess. 8Z reprinted in 1986 U.S. Code Cong. & Admin, News 2835,2864 (*".., the phrase "sufficient cause' will continue to be interpreted to preclude the assessment of penalties or treble damages when a party can establish that it had a reasonable belief that it was not liable under CERCLA ...."). This interpretation of the sufficient cause defense similarly has been adopted by the courts, including the court that has presided over previous litigation relating to.the Welsh Road Site. See, e.g.. United States v. Barkman, 1998 WL

It ii> noteuorth> that when Mr. Barkman tiled third party complaints against most of the Respondents to this Order, he did ngt sue Ecolaire. Thcjact that Mr, Barkman sued other Respondents but not Ecolaire provides addition.nl e\ idencc_ thatlini FniLiirt*"Euolairc's< wa&tewastes were nonntt taken tro thee Welsh Road Site, ------

962018." * 17 (E.D.Pa. 1998) "("sufficient cause" includes a situation "where a party has a reasonable . belief that it was not liable under CERCLA).

As detailed .above, based upon the information available to it at this time. Ecolaire has a reasonable basis to conclude that it is not a responsible party at the Welsh Road Site as_a matter of law. As a result, Ecolaire possesses sufficient cause to refrair> from complying with the unauthorized Order issued against it. . - -_ -

B. EPA's Effort to Impose Joint and Several Liability under the Order Is inconsistent with Existing Law, is Arbitrary and Capricious and is Unenforceable.______...... ______,______

In Sections 11'.","Paragraph 3 and VI.A.2 of the'OfdefrEPA purports to determine that the Respondents are jointly =and severally liable for carrying out most provisions of the Order.6 Such an unauthorized determination by EPA is in direct contravention of existing caselaw that has held that liability under a Section 106(a) Order is net joint and several. See United States v. Stringfellow, 20 ERC 1905, 1910 (C.D. Calif. 1984) (there is no role under Section 106(a) of CERCLA for joint and several liability to abate). Moreover, consistent with the Third Circuit's decision in United States v. Alcan,.25 F.3d 1174 (3d Cir.T994), Ecolaire will not be liable for conditions that are divisible from those that can be proven to be associated with Ecolaire's activities... EPA's attempt to make a unilateral determination in this regard is unenforceable as a matter of law.

EPA's attempted determination regarding joint and several liability also ignores the practical problems that can be caused by ordering more than one party to undertake the same activities at the Site. These practical problems are exacerbated when, as here, the various Respondents possess very different interests and alleged liabilities for conditions at the Site. Application of the doctrine of joint and several liability in this context can lead to abusive treatment of parties like Ecolaire by other Respondents who clearly have more substantial ties to the Site. Accordingly, application of the doctrine of joint and several liability to the facts of this case is an arbitrary and capricious use of EPA's authority under CERCLA, and is therefore unlawful and unenforceable. -

6 Pursuant to these same provisions. EPA acknowledges that only the owner/operator Respondents (/1/.. Mr. Barkman and related entities) can control site, assess and related issues, and that therefore those obligations are not joint and several. However, as discussed in greater detail below, the inability to gain access to the property may impede, if not complete!) thuart. the ability oHhe other Respondents to perform any work at the Site.

9ROui732 Frank Klanchar May 14. 1999 Pane 9

C. EPA Has Not Demonstrated That an Imminent and Substantial Endangerment or Threat Exists at the Site as Required by Section 106.______

Section 106 of CERCLA requires that tor an administrative order to be effective. EPA must establish that an "imminent and substantial endangerment to the public health or welfare or the environment" exists. 42 U.S.C. § 9606. Other than a perfunctory "conclusion" that the releases from this Site "may present an imminent and substantial endangerment to the public health or welfare or the environment," EPA has not provided any specific bases in the Order to support this statutory prerequisite. Although the 1990 Record of Decision ("ROD") and other administrative record documents contained allegations that conditions at the Site posed an "imminent and substantial endangerment/' it is important to note that these documents all predated EPA's recent installation of the water supply in the area of the Site. After EPA's expenditure of over $9 million and the removal of the risks associated with using groundwaterjn the vicinity of the Site, it is unclear that EPA can still establish that an imminent and substantial endangerment exists at the Site such as to warrant issuance of the Order.7

In addition, although Ecolaire has not exhaustively reviewed the analytical data collected by EPA over the years, from reviewing the Summary of Findings contained in the ROD. Ecolaire notes that most of the contaminants identified by EPA as being "elevated" are. in fact. below Pennsylvania's established health-based standards for residential exposures (direct contact). 25 Pa. Code Ch. 250, At these relatively low levels, it is highly questionable whether this data can support a finding that site conditions pose an imminent and substantial threat, as EPA alleges,

D. Because of Mr. Barkman's Continued Presence on the Site, It Is Unlikely That Any Work under the Order Can Be Accomplished.______

EPA has been embroiled in litigation with Mr. Barkman for v^ears. in an effort to gain ; access to the Welsh Road property. EPA therefore knows firsthand the difficulties that likely will be encountered in implementing the work required by the ROD and the Order. To the extent that Mr. Barkman and/or other related entities do not provide free and unfettered access to the Site, the Respondents have sufficient cause not to comply with the Order.

7 It should, be noted that the Court's previous finding in Untied States v. Barkman that an imminent and substantial endangerment existed at the Site relied upon the fact that groundwater associated with the Site was still being used. and in tact, addressed a cc>mp]etel> different order than the one at issue here. See Barkman at *!6.

4ROOI733 Frank Klanchar May 14. 1999 Pace 10

V. Conclusion

As a general proposition. Ecolaire stands ready to contribute its fair share to responsible cleanups for which it has responsibility. In the instant case, however, there simply is no credible evidence that establishes Ecolaire's responsibility for conditions at the Welsh Road Site. Accordingly. Ecolaire has sufficienTcause.nojLtQ. comply.with the Order issued against it.

Ecolaire wishes to underscore that it does not take this position lightly. From the outset of this matter. Ecolaire has attempted to cooperate with EPA and the other PRPs at every step of the process. In addition, Ecolaire has diligently sought nexus information from EPA and has taken the time to point out for EPA's benefit the inconsistencies of some of the witnesses' statements with the established facts. Ecolaire also has made recent settlement overtures to both EPA and to the Group in an effort to resolve this matter quickly and amicably, but such efforts have been fruitless to date. Notwithstanding these significant efforts iq be cooperative, however, Ecolaire also has a responsibility to its shareholders. In light of the weak and uncorroborated information presented to it by EPA, and the significant defenses to'liability that it possesses, Ecolaire cannot in good faith justify the large expenditures of funds that the other Respondents were demanding of it to comply with the Order, especially when it is clear that those other panics are far more responsible for conditions at the Site. However, as Ecolaire has indicated before, it remains willing to engage in further discussions with EPA and/or other PRPs should any credible or probative evidence be provided that demonstrates a link between Ecolaire and the Site.

Please dp not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

LPH/hs

Chester County. Pennsylvania (the "Site") Dear Mr. Hosford: This letter contains the response to your request via letter, dated June 20, 1991, for information pursuant to Section 104(e) of CERCLA with respect to the referenced location. The following are the answers of Ecolaire Incorporated, the owner of the Allen-Sherman-Hoff division during the relevant time period (1975-1985) and currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Joy Technologies Inc. ("Ecolaire"), in the order of the questions set forth in your letter: 1. The operations conducted by Ecolaire at its plant located at Route 322, West Main Street, Honey Brook, Pennsylvania 19344 were in the nature of warehousing and assembly in connection with the supply of "Allen-Sherman-Hoff" ash handling equipment and after market parts. There were approximately 30 employees at this plant during most of the relevant time period. The warehousing function was about three times larger than the assembly function. At no time did this plant conduct any "pipe-line" related operations. 2. This plant has been in existence since 1975. 3. The waste generated by Ecolaire at this plant during the relevant time period consisted of regular accumulations of yard trash, occasional drums of spent liquid paint thinner and a one time collection of 86 drums of bottom ash and fly ash submitted by coal fired electric generating plants to Ecolaire for the purpose of evaluating its physical conveying properties.

flROG1735 Bowen I. Hosford, Jr. July 26, 1991 Page 2 The yard trash was contained in a thirty cubic yard hopper located at the plant. The hopper was emptied about twice a week. Enclosed and marked Exhibit A is a copy of invoices and purchase orders documenting this arrangement. The spent paint thinner waste was disposed of in 55- gallon drums. Enclosed and marked Exhibit B is a copy of invoices, manifests and other documentation with respect to this waste. Enclosed and marked Exhibit C is a copy of the invoice, manifest and other documents with respect to the one time disposal of ash residue.

RE: Welsh Road/Barkman Landfill Superfund Site

Dear Cynthia: .. - _.—— ,.__ .-...:.

As you know, on September 30, 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") issued notice letters pursuant to Section 122(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA") to several parties, including my client, Ecolaire Incorporated ("Ecolaire") relative to the captioned matter. Shortly after receiving this notice letter, I contacted you and explained that in order to make a determination about whether to participate in making a Good Faith Offer, my client would need to be provided with any and all nexus information the government had that allegedly linked _EcoIaire to the Site. During our discussions, you indicated that you would provide me with this nexus information within a week or so. Subsequently, USEPA extended the deadline for submitting a Good Faith Offer to January 28, 1998 so that the parties would have the ability to evaluate the nexus information available, and to make reasoned judgments on that basis. On December 5, 1997, ^followed up with a call to you to determine the status of this matter, and you indicated that this nexus information would be provided to the parties sometime in the week of December 12, 1997.

It has been over one month since you and I last spoke about being provided with this nexus information, and to date, we have not received any information. By this letter. I would like to reiterate my concern that without being provided with this information on a timely basis, it will be virtually impossible to meaningfully respond to USEPA's notice letter. I understand that several third party defendants in the pending litigation with Mr. Barkman are currently awaiting discovery responses from the government and believe that without that information they similarly are unable to meaningfully respond to USEPA's inquiries. In. light of these outstanding issues, it would seem that a January 28, 1998 deadline for USEPA's §122 notice letter is unrealistic.

790 Cynthia Nadolski January 9,1998 Page 2

I look forward to receiving the government's nexus information shortly: Please give me a call if you would like to discuss this matter in greater detail.

Sincerely,

/hs

On September 30, 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") issued notice letters pursuant to Section 122(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), 42 U.S.C, §§ 9601 it seq., to several parties, including Ecolaire Incorporated ("Ecolaire") relative to the Welsh Road/Barkman Landfill Superfund Site in Honey Brook, Chester County, Pennsylvania (the "Site"). Based upon its apparent belief that Ecolaire may be a potentially responsible party ("PRP") at this Site. USEPA invited Ecolaire, either alone or as a member of a larger group of PRPs, to submit a "good faith proposal" to fund or perform certain remedial steps at the captioned Site. On this same basis. US EPA requested that Ecolaire, either alone or as a member of a group of PRPs, indicate a willingness and ability to reimburse USEPA for certain past and future costs that allegedly have been incurred in connection with the Site. . - '..,: " "" "-"-'- - . " - . :.." ^~i.":" . - - - . .

In 1 99 K Ecolaire received a request for information from USEPA under § 1 04(e) of CERCLA regarding the captioned Site. After conducting its own internal investigation, Ecolaire responded to this information request, indicating, inter alia, that Ecolaire's Allen-Sherman-Hoff division" had a contractual relationship with Mr. Barkman (or related entities) for the collection and appropriate.disposal of general "yard trash" from its Honey Brook, Pennsylvania facility. Ecolaire's investigation uncovered no information indicating that hazardous. .substances (or any other materials) were disposed of at the Site in question.

Shortly after receiving USEPA's September 30, 1997 notice letter, Ecohire contacted counsel for USEPA in an effort'to obtain .whatever information USEPA had thai led it to believe that

a R o u 1 7 9 2 Frank Klanchar January 27,1998 Page 2 . . _ ...... _

Ecolaire may be a PRP at the Site. Ecolaire explained that this nexus information was necessary so that it could make an independent judgment as to its potential liability at the Site, and, in turn, whether to participate in making a good faith proposal in the time period allotted. At that time, USEPA agreed to provide nexus information to Ecolaire by late November, 1997.

Subsequently, USEPA extended the deadline for submitting a good faith proposal to January 28, 1998 so that the parties would have the ability to evaluate the nexus information available, and to make reasoned judgments on that basis. Although USEPA extended this § 122(e) moratorium period, no nexus information was forthcoming from USEPA. Ecolaire's concerns about this delay were communicated in telephone calls between counsel, and finally in a letter from Ecolaire to USEPA's counsel dated January 9, 1998 (attached hereto as Exhibit A). In this letter, Ecoliare reiterated its concern that without being provided with adequate nexus information on a timely basis, it would be virtually impossible to meaningfully respond to USEPA's notice letter, and that in light of these delays, a January 28, 1998 deadline for USEPA's § 122(e) notice letter was unrealistic.

With only seven (7) days remaining in the § 122(e) moratorium period. Ecolaire's counsel received a fax from USEPA on January 21, 1998 that purports to be the Agency's best information linking Ecolaire to the Welsh Road Site. Unfortunately, because of USEPA's stated belief that most of its nexus information was exempt from disclosure "because it was compiled for taw enforcement purposes," Ecolaire was only provided with a one page, two-paragraph summary of the "evidence" that had been prepared by USEPA^s counsel. This summary, generally describes apparent statements made by unidentified persons about materials that may have been picked up at Ecolaire's facility. However, insufficient information was provided in this summary to adequately determine, for example, whether any materials -- even if picked up from Ecolaire's facility -were actually delivered to and/or disposed of at the Site in question. More critically, the identities of these alleged witnesses were not disclosed, making it impossible to evaluate the veracity of their statements or the accuracy of their recollections.

In Agency guidance documents, USEPA has acknowledged that the_ release of nexus information to PRPs '"can help achieve Agency goals of expediting cleanups, encouraging PRPs to undertake or finance cleanups, and avoiding unnecessary litigation." See e.g...'.'Releasing - Information to Potentially Responsible Parties at CERCLA.Sites" (page 1). Unfortunately, in light of the incomplete —and delayed ~ disclosure of purported nexus information regarding the Welsh Road Site, it is unlikely that USEPA's stated objectives can be achieved in this instance.

For the reasons set forth above, Ecolaire is not at thisume ablg to swbnii;,a good faith proposal as requested in USEPA's September 30. 1997 letter. However, to the extent that more complete information is provided to Ecolaire that would indicate some nexus to .the Site in. question. Ecolaire would be -willing to engage in further discussions with the Agency and or other PRPs.

RE: Welsh Road Site

Dear Ms. Shaw:

In accordance with our conference call of January 27, 1998, enclosed you will find a copy of pertinent witness statements generated by EPA in connection with the above Site. Only information protected by the Privacy Act has been redacted. Also enclosed is a copy of the Responsiveness Summary to the Record of Decision for Operable Unit 1 for the Site, a cost report for the Site which summarizes EPA's costs through July 14,1997, and a copy of a draft Agreement Regarding Confidentiality of Information and Annexes (Confidentiality Agreement). The cost report is subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of which are still to be finalized. As we discussed, I have also started the process .. by which the documents which support EPA's past costs as summarized in the COST report can be made available for review by the parties who have received Special Notice from EPA. This included drafting the Confidentiality Agreement by which the parties agree that certain business information will be treated as confidential prior to the release of the cost documentation.

You and Tom Gottshall also requested that the time by which the parties must respond to EPA's Special Notice be extended by two weeks from the date that you receive the enclosed documents. As I stated earlier, the Region cannot grant any further extensions to the Special Notice period. However, experience shows that it will take the Region more than two weeks to proceed after the Special Notice period expires whether the Region decides to proceed by issuing unilateral administrative orders or by applying for and receiving the necessary funds to proceed as a fund lead Site.

Welsh Road Landfill

Dear Cynthia:

Thank you for recently providing me with copies of the several witness statements generated on behalf of the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") in connection with the above-captioned Site, We have now had the opportunity to review these statements as they relate to Ecolaire's Allen-Sherman-Hoff facility in Honey Brook, Pennsylvania (the "Ecolaire facility"). After reviewing these statements, Ecolaire continues to believe that there is insufficient information to demonstrate a nexus between the Ecolaire facility and the Welsh Road Landfill.

In reviewing the several statements that USEPA's contractor solicited, it is apparent that most drivers who were interviewed provided no basis for considering Ecolaire a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for the Welsh Road Site. In particular, nearly every driver interviewed indicated that only general yard trash (e.g., wooden skids, cardboard and plant trash) was picked up b> Mr, Barkman's disposal company, and that these wastes were delivered to the local county landfill (i,L\, the Lanchester County Landfill). See e.g., Statements of William Deihni, George Turner and David Anderson. Notably, the Lanchester County Landfill was less than a mile and a half away from the Ecolaire facility. These statements are consistent with the information that was provided to USEPA in Ecolaire's Response to USEPA's §104(e) Request for Information dated July 26, 1991 r§104(e) Response"). > Two other Barkman drivers have made statements that are inconsistent with the weight of the evidence described above. For the reasons set forth below, it appears that these statements by Messrs. Klemmer and Good are unsubstantiated and are lacking in credibility.

3ROUI797 Cynthia Nadolski March 25, 1998 Page 2

First, as noted in Ecolaire's §104(e) Response, the operations conducted at Ecolaire's Honey Brook facility were in the nature_of warehousing and assembly in connection with the supply of Allen-Sherman-Hoff ash handling equipment and after-market parts. Contrary to the unsubstantiated statements of Messrs. Klemmer and Good, Ecolaire's Honey Brook facility was not a "pipe manufacturer" nor a "pipeline company."1 Further, the Ecolaire facility was located on Route 322, not on Route 10 in Honey.Broqk as siiggested.by^these^wo drivers. Accordingly, the only two statements that purportedly link the Ecolaire facility to the Welsh Road Landfill may in fact be a case, of mistaken identity prompted by USEPA's contractor. .

Second, neither the nature nor volume of the wastes described by these two drivers is consistent with the waste handling practices at the Ecolaire facility. For example, Mr. Klemmer apparently indicated that the waste stream for this "pipe manufacturer" consisted of a significant amount of metal scrap, metal threadings and shredding. However, as noted in Ecolaire's 1991 Response to USEPA's Request for Information, most wastes generated by Ecolaire's warehousing/assembly facility in Honey Bropkwere _in the natur^pf packing materials, not metallic wastes.. More importantly, to the extent that small volumes of metal scrap may occasionally have been generated, these materials reportedly would have been stockpiled at the facility and ultimately sold for value to local scrap metal dealers in the area.. Ecolaire was not in the practice of discarding valuable materials in the trash. .._.__.__.

Finally, as indicated in the invoices and purchase orders previously provided to USEPA by Ecolaire, the trash disposal services provided by Mr. Barkman's company involved the emptying of one (1) thirty-yard open top roll off bo'x on an 6h-call basis. This contemporaneous documentation is in contrast with the unsupported allegations by Mr. Klemmer that as many as three (3) four-yard open containers were removed from the "pipeline manufacturer" four times a week. Mr. Klemmer also indicates that his alleged collection of iiidustrial/^runirii^d_w£istes only occurred at night. The Ecolaire Honey Brook, facility operated only one shift per day.Jfrom 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The Ecolaire Honey Brook facility was .closed at nights. These conflicts again suggest a possible mistake in "identity on the part of these drivers,

As noted above, most of the;jyaternem$ collected by .USJEPA's contractor are consistent with Ecolaire's previous understanding of the facts.,namely that general plant trash was picked up by Mr. Barkman*s company and delivered to the local county landfill. Because the statements of the other two drivers are in stark contradiction to contemporaneous documentation as well as statements from the majority oC Barkman" s drivers; the credibilityof theseju^dnyer^ outlying statements is highly

In light of the foregoing, there appears to be insufficient information to establish a supportable nexus between Ecolaire's Honey Brook facility and the Welsh Road Site. As a result, Ecolaire respectfully requests that USEPA remove it from its list of PRPs for the captioned site.

Dear Mr. O'Dea: "_._-" " -

I am writing to follow up on our meeting of April 20, 1999, regarding the above Site. At that meeting, one of the representatives of the Unilateral Administrative Order ("UAO") recipients asked whether or not EPA had continued its efforts to locate additional Potentially Responsible Parties. At that time I informed the group that I did not think any additional interviews had been performed but that I would verify that information. As I indicated in our phone conversation of this morning, I located some additional interview summaries IsKe last week. I have redacted the privacy act information and am forwarding a copy of the interview summaries to all of the UAO recipients. Some of the parties may also receive a copy of the interview summaries in response to Freedom of Information Act requests but I am sending a copy to everyone to ensure that all the appropriate parties get a copy.

Dear Cynthia;

In <*annection with our discussion earlier today, I am providing you with a few of the relevant pages from Mr. Good's deposition testimony. Although Ecolaire is not mentioned by name, I believe that Mr. Dougall's inquiry into "a plant right across fromjhe Neoplan store" is his effort to gather information regarding Ecolaire. As you can see, Mr. Good indicates that he did not haul drums from the facility in question.

I look forward to speaking with you as soon as possible to further discuss this matter.
