Mallo/y Capacitor Co. Comnmnitx Involvement Plan Page 3 November 2018 Section 1.0 Overview of the C'ommunitv Involvement Plan
Tlie EPA developed this Community Involvement Phin (CIP) to tacilitate two-way communication between the community suirounding the Malloiy Capacitor Co. Site (Site) and the EPA and to encourage community involvement in Site remediation activities. Tlie EP.A will utilize the community involvement activities outlined in this plan to infonn area residents about the Site and provide opportunities for community involvement.
Tills CIP addresses the Site's relationship to the community and the EP.A (Section 2.0). provides a description of the community (Section 3.0). presents the EP.A's community involvement program (Section 4.0). and provides a listing of resources available (.Appendices). Tlie EP.A drew upon several information sources to develop this plan, including community interviews and Site files. Tlie EP.A's Regional OtTice will oversee the implementation of the community involvement activities outlined in this Plan.
Mallo/y Capacitor Co. Comnmnitx Involvement Plan Page 4 November 2018 Section 2.0 Capsule Site Description
2.1 Site History
The Site includes the area where City Chemical Company operated a footwear production facility in the late 1940s to the 1960s and P.R. Mallory & Co., Inc. operated an electrical capacitor manufacturing facility from the late 1960s to 1984.
The Mallory Capacitor Company operated from 1969 to 1979 by Duracell, and from 1979 to 1984 by Emhart Industries to manufacture electrical capacitors on-site using Trichloroethene (TCE) and its breakdown products as part of the manufacturing process. Liquid waste generated from this process was stored in underground storage tanks on-site. Operation at the Mallory Electrical Capacitor manufacturing facility contaminated soils and groundwater with solvents and polychlorinated biphenyl compounds (PCBs). From 1976 to 1980, cleanup actions were implemented by Emhart to remove PCB-contaminated materials from process equipment within the manufacturing facility. These actions also included removing the underground storage tank adjacent to the plant and associated surrounding PCB-contaminated soil. The EPA placed the Site on the Superflind program’s National Priorities List (NPL) in 1989 because of contaminated groundwater resulting from facility operations.
The EPA, the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), and Battery Properties International, the Site’s potentially responsible party (PRP), have investigated Site conditions and taken steps to clean up the Site. Site contamination does not currently threaten people living and working near the Site. By treating and monitoring groundwater, placing institutional controls on the Site property, and undertaking Five-Year Reviews (FYRs), the EPA, TDEC, and the Site’s PRP continue to protect people and the environment from Site contamination.
2.2 Site Description/Location
The former Mallory facility consists of an 8.6-acre vacant industrial parcel situated on the western bank of the Green River. The Site is located 0.2 miles southeast of the center of Waynesboro, in Wayne County, Tennessee, approximately 80 miles southwest of Nashville, Tennessee. The Site ad(h'ess is Belew Circle, Waynesboro, Tennessee, 38485. The only building on the facility parcel is a former warehouse that now houses the groundwater remediation treatment system. Approximately 2,050 people live within one (1) mile of the Site.
Surrounding land uses include residential and commercial properties to the north, south and west and approximately eight residences border the Site to the south on Mariva Street. The front yards of these residences come to within 20 yards of the plant’s on-site warehouse. Three residential properties border the western side of the Site upgradient from the plant. The property is unfenced; however, a solid-wood privacy fence encloses the area next to the former warehouse. The vapor phase carbon absorption units (air emissions treatment) for groundwater treatment off gasses sit inside the enclosed area.
Mallory Capacitor Co. Community Involvement Plan Page 5 November 2018 Municipal water is available to the area residents and businesses; the City of Waynesboro enacted an ordinance prohibiting groundwater withdrawal in the Site vicinity. There are 54 private wells located within a one-mile radius of the Site that draw on the Fort Payne Formation Aquifer for groundwater.

2.3 Site Inspections and Cleanup Activities
In 1979, the PRP performed remedial measures at the Site associated with a below-grade storage room and an underground tank. The storage room, located adjacent to a boiler room, was originally constructed for coal storage when coal was used to the fuel the plant boilers. The underground tank was used for storing waste fluids from the capacitor impregnation process. From September 1979 to November 1979, the PRP filled and removed 80 drums of liquids and sludge from the below-grade storage room at the Site. Upon removal of these materials, the storage room was backfilled with sedimentary rock clay to within one foot of the ceiling and capped with a concrete slab.
From 1988 to 1989, the Site’s PRP dug up and disposed of contaminated soil and debris off-site. The PRP also installed monitoring wells on- and off-site. In 1991, the EPA issued the Site’s long term cleanup plan. It included installing five groundwater extraction wells; using a pump-and- treat system on-site to address contaminated groundwater; testing to determine the spread of groundwater contamination and possible effects on a nearby creek; placing institutional controls on the Site property and implementing a monitoring program to assess the effectiveness of Site cleanup activities. On-site physical cleanup was completed in 1993.
In 1993, the PRP began groundwater extraction and treatment activities. In 2001, the PRP installed six additional monitoring wells to determine the spread of groundwater contamination and monitor its cleanup.
In May 2014, in cooperation with the EPA, the City of Waynesboro Commission adopted the Waynesboro Groundwater Ordinance limiting groundwater withdrawal in designated areas around the Site.
Mallory Capacitor Co. Community Involvement Plan Page 9 November 2018 The EPA completed the Site’s fifth FYR in July 2018. It found that the cleanup continues to protect people and the environment in the short term. For Site remedies to be protective over the long term, institutional controls have been implemented to restrict groundwater use at affected off-site areas.

Mallory Capacitor Co. Community Involvement Plan Page 12 November 2018 3.2 History of Community Involvement
Public availability sessions were hosted by the EPA on September 29, 1988, September 30, 1988, and December 5, 1988, to inform citizens of the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) at the Site. The meetings were held at the Waynesboro City Hall Courtroom. Fact sheets regarding the proposed Site cleanup plan were distributed to citizens in 1991 and fact sheets were distributed in June 1993 informing citizens of the start of the remedial action.
As part of the fifth FYR, community interviews were conducted in March 2018.
3.3 Key Community Concerns
As incidents of contamination and sources of environmental pollution were traced to the Mallory plant, concerns grew among local plant neighbors as well as among county residents, some of whom live as far as 25 miles from the Site. Their concerns, which were noted throughout the interviews, included degraded surface water and groundwater quality, public health, fish kills, and on-site and off-site waste disposal practices.
3.4 Response to Community Concerns
Over the last twenty years, community concerns have been adchessed while investigating the effects of the cleanup remedy chosen for this site. To continue to be effective, the community involvement program was designed to meet the community’s need to know, give information in a timely manner, and accommodate the community’s interests and its willingness to participate in the decision making processes.
3.5 Summary of Communication Needs
During the 2018 FYR process, the EPA conducted interviews to document any perceived problems or successes with the remedy as implemented to date. Most residents were unconcerned with work going on at the Site. Only two residents were familiar with the cleanup effort and had participated in prior discussions regarding redevelopment ideas. There were no outlying issues or problems raised by the residents concerning the Site. The public will continue to be informed of any updates at the Site via mailed flyers or by notices in local media including radio, television, and the area’s newspaper, Wayne County News.

U.S.EPA has identrfiad Altemativa 4b as tha best course of action for the ground-water contamination and migration problem at the Malloiy Capacitor Co. Superfund She. U.S.EPA's preferred course of action includes: * ^stall 13 Ground-Water Extraction WeDs * Install an On-She Air Stripping/Bag FUtralion/Carbon Adsor^Mion Ground-Water Treatment Fachity * Treat Ground Water to Remove TCE and 1^-DCE * Discharge Treated Grour>d Water to Chy Water Treatment Plant or Surface Waters Near the Site * Invesligalions to better determine northern extent of off-site greund-water contamination * Investigations to determine possible Impacts to Cold Water Creek * Irtstitutional controls and monitoring * An effectiveness monitoring program This alternative is estimatedto remove appfoxim^ely 100% ofTCE and 1.2-roE In both on-Site and off-Sheaquifers withina30-yaar period. The estimated cost is$3,105.IX)0. The exact locations and number of wellschosen are estimates and may be modified during the design phase which precedes remedial action. Ailerr>ative 1 was rtot chosen because h did not permanently limit exposure to contaminants or reduce the release of contaminants. Alternative 2 was not chosen because concentrations of TCE and 1.2-DCE attained would not comply wilhfederal and state regulations pertaining to dean up of hazardous wastaSites. While AltemativeSprovided tor cleanup of the on-She aquifer, it did not address cleanmg up the off-Site aquifer. Alternatives 4 and S achieve the same cleanup concentratbns within the same time frame (approximate^ 100% reduction in TCE and 1 ^-DCE in 30 years). Because Attematives 4 and S give the same end results. Aftematrve 4 was chosen as the more cost-effective alternative. As discussed previousty, U.S.EPA prefers the 'b* part of this alternative, which is air stripping/littration/carbon adsor^^n. because h achieves more consistent effluent concentrations.

The comment period provides an opportunity for local residents tosubmittheir comments to U.S. EPAon all the remedial alternatives consideredforthe Site. Based on public comments or new information, U.S. EPA may modify the recommended remedial alternative or choose another of the remedial attematives developed in the FS. The Proposed Plan outlines in detail U.S. EPA's recorranended remedial alternative. FoOowing the public comment period. U.S. EPA will sign a Record of Decision (ROD) forthe Site. The ROD will detail the remedial action chosen for the Site and include U.S. EPA’s responses to comments received during the public comment period. After the ROD is signed, a design plan for implementing the remedial action will be prepared. Once the design Is complete, construction of the remedial action can begin. A review will be conducted every five years at this Site since PCBs will remain above health-based levels. This review will insure that contaminants in the ground-water plume (including PCBs) are being effectively contained and that the TCE and 1,2-OCE are being reduced in concentration.
