APPENDIX C: GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND ACRONYMS 1.0 INTRODUCTION This community relations plan has been developed to prepare for community relations activities to be conducted prior to and during the remedial activities at the Electro-Voice site in Buchanan, Michigan. The purpose of this document is to provide information about community concerns and present a plan to enhance communication between local residents and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA). This plan will be revised when remedial activities at the site move toward completion and community concerns are reassessed.
Information presented in this document was obtained from U.S. EPA, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), and interviews with local officials and residents of Buchanan. The interviews were conducted by Jacobs Engineering Inc. (U.S. EPA Technical Enforcement Support Contractor) in September 1988.
This community relations plan consists of the following sections: o A description and brief history of the site; o A profile of the City of Buchanan community; o A discussion of past community involvement with the site and present community concerns about the site; and o A discussion of community relations objectives for the site and activities designed to implement them. This community relations plan contains several appendices, including a mailing list of interested parties and organizations; a list of suggested locations for public meetings and information repositories, and a glossary of acronyms and technical terms. 1.1 A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE SUPERFUND PROCESS In 1980, the United States Congress enacted the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA, also called Superfund). CERCLA authorizes U.S. EPA to investigate and respond to releases of hazardous substances that may endanger public health and welfare, and the environment. The 1980 law also established a $1.6 billion fund to pay for the investigation and cleanup of sites where parties responsible for the releases are unable or unwilling ! to address contamination problems. Congress amended and reauthorized the I Superfund law in October 1986 as the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization j Act (SARA), increasing the size of the fund to about $8.5 billion.
After a potential site is initially discovered, it is inspected, usually by a state agency. The state, U.S. EPA, or a U.S. EPA contractor then scores the site using a system called the hazard ranking system (HRS) that takes into account: o Possible health risks to the human population; o Potential hazards (e.g., from direct contact, inhalation, fire, or explosion) created by the chemicals at the site; o Potential for the substances at the site to contaminate the air or drinking water supplies; and o Potential for the substances at the site to pollute or harm the environment.
If the HRS score indicates that potential site contamination problems are serious, the site is included on the U.S. EPA National Priorities List (NPL), a national roster of uncontrolled or abandoned hazardous waste sites. Sites on the NPL are eligible for investigation and cleanup under the Superfund program. A remedial investigation and feasibility study (RI/FS) are planned and conducted after a site is placed on the NPL. The remedial investigation (RI): o identifies the types of contaminants present at and near the site; o assesses the degree of contamination; and o characterizes potential risks to the community. The feasibility study (FS) evaluates several alternative remedies for problems at the site.
If one or more parties believed to be responsible for site contamination problems are identified and agree to cooperate, these potentially responsible parties (PRPs) may conduct the RI/FS under U.S. EPA supervision. If no PRP is found, or a PRP does not agree to conduct the RI/FS, the investigation is conducted by U.S. EPA. U.S. EPA may, through legal action, later recover costs from PRPs.
Upon completion of the FS, a public comment period is held, after which a specific long-term action is chosen and designed. The actual cleanup begins once these planning activities are finished.
The time needed to complete each step in the remedial process is different for every site. If the site poses an immediate threat to public health or the environment at any time during the remedial process, U.S. EPA will intervene with an emergency response action. 2.0 SITE HISTORY The Electro-Voice site occupies approximately 11.5 acres of land on the southern edge of Buchanan, Michigan (Figure 1). A residential area and Stark Elementary School are located northeast of the site. The area west of Electro-Voice is a mixture of residential and commercial properties. The land south of Electro-Voice is largely underdeveloped and much of the area is pitted with gravel excavations. Most residents living near the Electro-Voice area use municipal water obtained i from wells in the Buchanan City well field, located approximately 2,000 feet ( northwest of the site (Figure 2). i !
| Several manufacturing companies have occupied the property since the 1920s. The i property originally was owned by Campbell Transmissions Company until the early j 1930s. Dry Zero Corporation purchased the site and produced insulating materials
. from the mid-1930s to 1940. Clark Equipment leased the property from Dry Zero
' in 1940 to manufacture transmissions for large equipment from 1940 until 1946. In j 1946, Electro-Voice, Inc. purchased the property and has since manufactured sound equipment there.
Residential refuse, trash and demolition debris were deposited into a natural land depression located on the western portion of the site from the 1920s to the early 1950s. The depression was filled until it was approximately level with remaining Electro-Voice property. Portions of the Electro-Voice building are built upon this fill material. Miles Buchanan Road
Electro-Voice Site
Figure 1 Site Area Map Electro Voice Site Buchanan, Michigan ____I
Figure 2 Site Map Electro-Voice Site Buchanan, Michigan In 19S2, Electro-Voice constructed two clay-lined lagoons (north and south) to dispose of liquid plating waste produced by plant operations. The waste was discharged to the north lagoon from 1952 to 1962, during which time it was used continuously and remained filled with waste and rainwater. The south lagoon was constructed to contain overflow from the north lagoon; however overflow never occurred. After a new wastewater treatment facility was constructed in 1962 the lagoons were no longer used.
Waste solution was released accidentally into the unused north lagoon after a drain pipe ruptured in March 1979. Electro-Voice reported the release to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), and immediately treated and removed the waste solution which had discharged into the lagoon, repaired the line and installed a temporary holding tank to prevent similar incidents in the future. MDNR inspected the facility on March 29, 1979 and was satisfied with the efforts made by Electro-Voice in response to the release and associated interim activities.
MDNR conducted an on-site inspection of the spill containment program at Electro-Voice in September 1979. During the inspection, MDNR determined that small amounts of waste had been discharged to the north lagoon since the March 1979 discharge. MDNR required Electro-Voice to install a permanent holding tank to collect floor drain water, update the treatment program with a permanent drainage collection system, and prepare a ground-water monitoring program.
Electro-Voice, Inc. installed four ground-water monitoring wells around the lagoons in 1980 to determine if liquid waste had leaked from the lagoons and contaminated nearby ground water in the area. When the monitoring wells were sampled and analyzed in January 1980 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were detected in two wells. Less than 10 ppm toluene and 2.5 ppm xylene were found in well number two. Two ppm of toluene and 1.5 ppm xylene were found in well number three. Concentrations of lead in the range of less than 0.05 ppm to .96 ppm were present in all four well samples.
Samples of the sludge and standing water were also collected from the lagoon during the January 1980 investigation. Elevated levels of heavy metals, and cyanide were present in the standing water samples.
The north lagoon and its contents were removed in September 1980 as part of remedial actions related to the 1979 waste pipe rupture. Approximately 15,000 gallons of water, 19,000 gallons of sludge and 40 cubic yards of clay liner were removed and disposed of off-site. The area was then filled with clean materials. The south lagoon was not considered to be contaminated and was not excavated. However, it was filled with clean materials and leveled to the surrounding surface area.
Liquid waste from the paint shop and former glue shop were disposed of into a dry well located east of the lagoons. The liquid waste reportedly consisted of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and chemicals related to the VOCs found in the ground water samples obtained from on-site monitoring wells. The dry well was located in fill material and consisted of a drain pipe entering an area filled with stones. It was abandoned by Electro-Voice at some unknown time, after which an above- ground tank was used for disposal of these wastes. The above-ground tank was placed in the same location as the dry well and was identified as the MEK tank. The MEK tank was also abandoned at an unknown time and is no longer present on site. I Two types of VOCs, toulene and xylene, were detected around the lagoons in ' monitoring wells numbers 2 and 3 in January 1980. Because of the presence of | VOC contamination in the ground water, in February 1983, the Electro-Voice site was placed on the National Priorities List (NPL). Electro-Voice, as current owner I and operator of the site, was named as a party potentially responsible for contamination at the facility. ' Two partially buried fuel oil tanks which had been on site since 1930 were I excavated and removed from the site during July 1987. Electro-Voice used the i tanks from 1946 until 1960 for storage of fuel oil. Samples of soils obtained in August 1987 from beneath the tanks indicated elevated levels of VOCs and fuel oil. i Electro-Voice signed a legal agreement called a consent order in September 1987 to I conduct a remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS). The RI/FS began in ' the fall of 1988. [ 3.0 COMMUNITY PROFILE • The City of Buchanan is located in Berrien County, Michigan and lies along the I St. Joseph River. It is about five miles west from the City of Niles and approximately IS.miles north of South Bend, Indiana. Electro-Voice is the largest employer in Buchanan.
Buchanan is governed by an elected at-Iarge town board of commissioners and a city mayor. City officials described local voters as conservative, with average
turnout for political elections.
Most of the population resides north and west within the City of Buchanan. The majority of the residents in the immediate Electro-Voice area use municipal water obtained from the City well field. The City well field is located approximately 2,000 feet northwest of Electro-Voice.
The area topography is predominantly hummocky terrain. Hummocky terrain •occurred when buried ice blocks were dropped by melting glaciers. The buried ice blocks eventually melted and the overlying material collapsed, causing surface depressions.
Surface water in the area consists of the St. Joseph River, McCoy Creek and ponds created by gravel pit operations. The ponds are primarily located south and east of Electro-Voice. McCoy Creek flows northeast through the City of Buchanan and discharges into the St. Joseph River. McCoy Creek, which enters the St. Joseph River approximately one mile north of the Electro-Voice site, potentially influences ground-water flow from the site towards the northwest.
8 Media City of Buchanan residents read the Niles Star/Leader and South Bend, Indiana Tribune daily newspapers and the weekly Berrien County Record. There are two local radio stations, WAUS out of Berrien Springs, and WNIL (WAOR-FM) in Niles. Radio and television stations are received from Niles, Michigan and South Bend and Elkhart, Indiana.
Past Community Involvement with the Site Organized community involvement with the site has been minimal. Residents living near the site feel that Electro-Voice is a good corporate neighbor.
Deborah Seager, mayor of Buchanan, lives near Electro-Voice. The Electro-Voice parking lot separates her home from the site. She stated during community interviews that she was surprised when she read that Electro-Voice had been placed on the NPL, since she was unaware of any contamination problems. City officials stated that Electro-Voice has tried to accommodate the surrounding community as much as possible and that they could not recall any complaints about operations at Electro-Voice. The community appears to have confidence in the abilities of U.S. EPA, MDNR and Electro-Voice to address any contamination problems.
9 4.0 ISSUES AND CONCERNS There appear to be few issues or concerns regarding the Electro-Voice site. In general, local officials feel that Electro-Voice is genuinely concerned about protecting the surrounding environment and public health. The following concerns were identified during community interviews conducted by Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. September 8-9, 1988 in Buchanan, Michigan:
Effect on the local ground water and public health One Buchanan official expressed concern that contaminants from Electro-Voice might enter the municipal wells located downgradient from the site. However, contaminants have not been detected in samples obtained from the municipal water supply.
Misinformation Some local officials expressed concern that since Buchanan is a small town, erroneous rumors regarding activities at Electro-Voice might be spread by misinformed residents. They requested that updates on activities be available to the public through city offices to minimize the spread of rumors. The City Manager agreed to have extra copies of fact sheets available at City Hall to give to interested citizens.
Additionally, the City Manager mentioned that misinterpretation of conditions at the site may occur because of street repair in the vicinity of the site. He felt that the community may think that the site is so contaminated that it has to be quartered off, since the access street to Electro-Voice will be closed for routine repairs.
10 5.0 COMMUNITY RELATIONS GOALS AND ACTIVITIES Community relations goals and activities have been developed to encourage public participation during upcoming activities at the Electro-Voice site, and at appropriate times, encourage community input during the remedial process.
5.1 COMMUNITY RELATIONS OBJECTIVES The following have been developed as a guideline for the implementation of community relations activities:
Provide the community with information about the site and Suoerfund Buchanan residents and local officials will be very receptive to receiving periodic updates on site activities and on the Superfund process. City officials have expressed an interest in results and interpretations of sampling and other relevant reports.
: Educate the community about the remedial process Residents are receptive to the presence of U.S. EPA in resolving site problems at the Electro-Voice site. The nature of the remedial process and the roles of the various participants in the process, such as government agencies, PRPs, contractors and other personnel, should be explained to encourage community participation.
11 Maintain dialogue between the community and the U.S. EPA The process of community interviews and the public meeting have already set up an initial communication link between the community and U.S. EPA, and a contact person for the site has been designated by U.S. EPA. Access to a contact reduces the frustration that may accompany attempts to obtain information and communicate with several agencies and organizations involved in the RI/FS.
Evaluate the effectiveness of community relations programming As the remedial process progresses, it will be worthwhile to evaluate the effectiveness of the community relations activities in relaying information to residents and encouraging citizen participation.
5.2 COMMUNITY RELATIONS ACTIVITIES The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) requires that certain community relations activities be conducted at designated milestones during the remedial process. In addition, Region 5 of U£. EPA undertakes other activities to strengthen its communication with communities. Activities which will be conducted during the remedial process at the Electro-Voice site are described below. Figure 3 illustrates the timing of the activities.
InformatioB Repository A repository is an information file or notebook which contains a series of documents and information about the site and Superfund, including consent orders, work plans, reports and copies of applicable laws. An information repository provides for public access to site-related information which is required under SARA. A repository for the Electro-Voice site has been established by U.S. EPA. Its location is listed in Appendix B of this community relations plan. All

Public Comment Period SARA requires that a public comment period be held after completion of the feasibility study (FS) and selection of a recommended alternative by U.S. EPA. Region 5 generally provides a 30-day comment period. The purpose of the comment period is to enable all interested parties, including local officials, residents, groups, and PRPs an opportunity to express their opinions about the selected alternative and participate in the final decision making process for site cleanup. The comment period will be announced by an advertisement published in local newspapers. A press release announcing the comment period for the Electro- Voice site also will be sent to the local media. U.S. EPA will also directly contact interested parties on the mailing list contained in Appendix A of the CRP.
Published Notices Before adoption of any plan for remedial action is undertaken, SARA requires that a notice and brief synopsis of the proposed plan must be published in a major local newspaper of general circulation such as the Niles Star/Leader or Berrien County Record. A notice which explains the final remedial action plan adopted by U.S. EPA will be published and the plan will be made available to the public before commencement of any remedial action. Notices or advertisements also will be published to announce all public meetings sponsored by U.S. EPA.
13 Public Meetings SARA requires an opportunity for a public meeting during the public comment period. The public meeting provides an opportunity for U.S. EPA to directly address citizens' questions and comments, and to discuss the recommended remedial alternative(s). Public meetings or availability sessions also may be held at other times during the RI/FS process such as at the conclusion of the remedial investigation. The U.S. EPA community relations coordinator, and the U.S. EPA remedial project manager will conduct these meetings. The meeting time and place will be coordinated with local officials. Planning for public meetings should remain flexible to account for fluctuations in public interest. A public meeting was held in September 1988 at the start of the RI/FS.
Public Meeting Transcript A verbatim transcript will be taken if a public meeting is held during the public comment period on the U.S. EPA recommended alternative. U.S. EPA will place the transcripts in the information repository.
1 Responsiveness Summary All comments received during the public comment period will be addressed in a document called a responsiveness summary. This report is required by SARA as part of the Record of Decision (ROD). The ROD is a formal document which details the process by which the final cleanup action for the site was chosen. The ROD will be placed in the site information repositories.
14 Revised Community Relations Plan After the ROD has been signed by U.S. EPA, this CRP will be revised to take into account changing concerns of the community. The revised CRP will update and verify the information contained in this plan, assess the community relations program to date, and develop community relations activities appropriate for the cleanup phase of the project.
Meetings with Local Officials and Residents Various city and county officials, and residents have indicated that they want to be kept informed about sampling results and other activities at the Electro-Voice site. U.S. EPA meetings with these officials may be held at various key times throughout the remedial process when requested by the interested parties.
Update Reports Reports may be used to supplement and update the information transmitted in fact sheets. The update reports may include information regarding on-going field activities, discovery of additional sources of contamination or samples results. A copy of any update reports issued will be placed in the information repository.
Fact Sheets ; Fact sheets developed to coincide with particular milestones during the remedial process, are intended to provide the community with detailed information about the site written in non-technical language. These will be sent to all parties on the mailing list and placed in the site information repository. A fact sheet was released at the beginning of the remedial investigation to explain the activities to be conducted during the study and the Superfund process. A second fact sheet will be prepared to explain the findings of the remedial investigation and feasibility
15 study, and to outline each of the remedial alternatives being considered for cleanup of the site. A detailed description of the U.S. EPA recommended remedial alternative also will be provided in this fact sheet. An additional fact sheet may be issued to describe the remedial design and remedial action phases to be implemented at the site.
Press Releases Prepared statements will be released to local newspapers, radio and television stations to announce the discovery of any significant findings at the site during the remedial investigation and feasibility study, and to notify the community of any public meetings or public comment periods. Additional press releases are advisable at the completion of the draft feasibility study report and prior to initiation of the remedial action. The press releases should be mailed to the media list in Appendix A and placed in the site information repository.
Program Evaluation At key milestones during the remedial process U.S. EPA Region 5 will evaluate the effectiveness of the community relations program for the Electro-Voice site. These milestones may include the RI/FS kickoff, completion of the RI, and after the comment period on the U.S. EPA proposed plan. Survey questionnaires, or other evaluation tools will be designed to assess the effectiveness of public meetings, fact sheets and other activities in conveying information and encouraging citizen participation.
