Department of Planning Services' staff have also received letters and phone calls in support of the biomedical incineration facility. 8534335,8 Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting August 1, 1989 Page 7 CASE NUMBER: Amended USR-842 APPLICANT: Tire Mountain, Inc. , and Wixco Services, Inc. REQUEST: A Site Specific Development Plan, an Amended Special Review permit, and a Certificate of Designation for a tire landfill, storage, recycling facility, and a biomedical waste incineration facility in the I-3 (Industrial) zone district. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part of the SE} of Section 32, T3N, R65W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado LOCATION: West of and adjacent to Weld County Road 41 and south of Weld County Road 28 The Chairman announced Tire Mountain, Inc. , and Wixco Services, Inc. , are presenting two separate actions, an amendment to Special Use Permit #842 and a Certificate of Designation. The Planning Commission will listen to all information and then take two separate actions. Both actions will be recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners. The staff's recommendation will be read into the record before the Planning Commission listens to any testimony from the audience. APPEARANCE: Ken Lind, .Attorney, represented the applicant. He reported there will be no new facilities which can be seen. Wixco's services will take place in one-half of an existing building, and new equipment for the biomedical incinerator will be installed in that half. Wixco will not use land proposed for agricultural uses. The property is zoned I-3 for heavy industrial uses, and this use will not pollute natural resources. The County's Comprehensive Plan intends for 1-3 uses to take place in sparsely populated areas. He outlined House Bill 1328 which defines disposal of infectious waste. A video of Wixco's operation was shown. The tape was retained as evidence. Tape 349 - Side 1 Benjamin F. Gibbons, Chief Executive Officer, Wixco Waste, explained that medical wastes of their customers is currently being taken to an approved site in South Dakuta. Wixco currently has approximately 40 clients with 60,000 pounds of waste a month. he discussed packaging of blood and body fluids, and needles and sharp utensils. These containers were distributed to the Planning Commission and retained as evidence. They will have a backup generator on site to preserve computer operations. Greg Chlunsky, President, International Process Research Center, explained the drum disposal process. After they are approved, review of any and all data can be made at any time. The system can be shut down if it does not comply with approved standards. Rotary kilns have been used for years, and are not experimental. 89( 958 EXf/i8.7 e Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting August 1, 1989 Page 8 Dr. Gary Krieger, Manager, Health Effects, reviewed health risk assessments of biomedical wastes. He explained the percentage of ash to the original product. There is some degree of metal which goes out with the ash. However safeguards are taken that metals are not released into the air. Tape 239 — Side 2 Ken Lind asked the chairman if several persons wishing to speak in support of this request could speak now. Permission was granted. Nancy Behn, Director, Laboratory, Greeley Medical Clinic, feels this would protect the community. Prior to using Wixce's services they had been • autoclaving their biomedical wastes. They were then disposed of in the trash and taken to Weld County's landtill. Wastes are picked up once a week. Fichard Harris explained the autoclave method of waste disposal. Currently, ci::co picks up their wastes every two weeks. Phil Brewer, Manager, Pierce Medical Lab, reported until November of 1988, they were autoclaving all wastes and then just dumping them in a trash dumpster. When Colorado Legislature defined waste handling they made arrangements with Wixco. This seems like the only sensible way to dispose wastes of this type. Tom Bakkum, Boulder, explained that in this type of incinerator 3% of the metals actually leave in the air. The ash is not metal. Most of these are caught in the filtering system. The Chairman called a break at 3:15 p.m. He asked anyone wishing to speak to fill out a card with their name, address, and phone number and return the card to him. The meeting was reconvened at 3:25 p.m. NOTICE: LeAnn Reid is excused fur the remainder of the meeting. Keith Schuett read the Department of Planning Services' staff recommendation, conditions, and development standards into the record. Tape 350 — Side 1 Wes Potter, Director, Environmental Protection, reviewed the standards regarding emissions control. For this facility, the State Health Department has the authority to increase specificity of this request. If a temperature of 1800° F. in the combustion chamber drops, the system has a "lockout" feature, and no additional waste can be added until the heat is adequate. 890958 Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting August 1, 1989 Page 9 They have agreed to meet a 99% metal efficiency quotient, and this is what the State and Weld County Health Departments will look for. Most metals are iron and ferrous type materials, and if these standards are met they should not pose a significant health hazard. The possibility of any pathogens surviving a temperature of 1800° F. is negligible. The Weld County Health Department has adequate technology and staff to perform proper monitoring. All liquid wastes will be incinerated. The Chairman reminded the Planning Commission and the audience that this request is an amended use by special review. All the conditions and standards previously approved for Tire Mountain, Inc. , are not open to alterations or amendments. • The Chairman called for discussion from audience. Mary Miller, area resident spoke against this request because of possible air pollution, odor, and declining property values. Norma Taylor and Helen Moore represented several area residents and spoke in opposition to this request. Tape 350 - Side 2 The "Peoples Bill of Rights" was reviewed and distributed to the Planning Commission. A copy was retained as evidence. Tape 351 - Side 1 Mildred Simpson, area resident, felt the biomedical waste facility would cause serious problems and asked what it would do to help Weld County. John Lucas reported he runs businesses that handle waste. The health Department is very efficient in checking out these facilities. It is his opinion, that Wixco is dedicated to doing a good job. Patricia Henry, Weisner Subdivision, felt a biomedical waste system is needed, but not in their backyard. Everett Dedieker waE against this request and asked they be required to carry ample insurance to cover costs cf possible damages. Tape 351 - Side 2 Glenn Miller, Platteville Fire Prevention District, spoke of their concerns regarding contamination of wastes between the product generator and the incinerator. 893958 Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting August 1, 1989 Page 10 Lee Morrison explained infectious waste has been taken out of hazardous waste and they are now two separate items. Delmar Walter, adjacent resident, opposed this request because it is not an isolated area. John Hockmiller, adjacent property owner, was not opposed to this request providing it meet all safety standards as proposed. Nellie Nichols spoke against this request. Diann Michael spoke against this request and felt they should be able to show proof of adequate insurance. Kenneth Moore, area resident, was against this request being granted. Ken Lind reported the applicant is requesting not alterations or modifications to the staff' s recommendation, conditions, or development standards. The Chairman called a break at 7:03 p.m. The meeting was again called to order at 7:15 p.m. NOTION: Ann Garrison moved Case Number USR-842 for Tire Mountain, Inc. , and Wixco Services, Inc. , for an amended Special Review permit for a tire landfill, storage, recycling facility, and a biomedical waste incineration facility be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with the Planning Commission's recommendation for approval based upon the recommendation, conditions, and development standards set forth by the staff, the testimony beard by the Planning Commission, and for the following additional reasons: If we lived in a utopian society it would be a society that was willing to reduce the amount cf waste generated, but that is not the type of society we live under. Actually we are operating under what is called an economics period of the second best. That means -we have the problem of the waste and find the most efficient solution for eliminating the waste. The current situation uses water for part of the waste and landfills for the rest of the waste. The second alternative would he to use the proposal before us. She feels that for the people in Weld County, the health and well being of 890958 Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting August 1, 1989 Page 11 all the people of Weld County would be better served by Wixco' s proposal to incinerate the waste rather than having Weld County continue using landfills and the water. She realizes residents in the vicinity expect to have their property values reduced and they expect harm to themselves. This, according to the testimony heard, appears to be a rather low probability. She was also concerned that there were laws; however, the federal government and the -- state government have not been very active in developing laws. We also live in a society where our technology is changing much more rapidly than the bureaucracy. This is probably an area where the bureaucracy is going to be Lagging behind technology. If we wait for the bureaucracy to come up with changes in laws to fit this particular situation, we again will have an increased need for landfills and also for water. These are the reasons she is making a motion to recommend approval for this particular facility. Motion seconded by Jerry Burnett. The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the Planning Commission. Jerry Kiefer stated he likes the way Ann put this. He also was uncertain during the documentation part of the meeting and during the testimony of people here. Two critical questions that he feels have been adequately answered, perhaps not perfectly, had to do with the technology and the need. Many of us do live much closer to incineration than some of you do to this one. He is aware of some of the ways medical waste is currently being disposed of by incineraticu. It is going on now and will continue even within our cities. He is pleased with the testimony made by Mr. Potter. Our laws are there to protect us and all of us have the obligation to make sure they do so. Tape 352 - Side I Ernie Ross feels that Wixco made an excellent presentation and there is certainly a need for a biomedical medical waste facility. He feels that at this time though, it is at the wrong place. He feels that there are better places to put it. The Chairman asked the secretary to poll the members of the Planning Commission for their decision.

Prior to selection of Wixco for our medical waste disposal service, we reviewed the various options available for disposal of such materials, and determined that incineration is the best method. Wixco was selected due to their knowledge of regulations, technology, and concern for and plans for resolving environmental issues relating to medical waste disposal. Wixco's professional approach to the service and the fact that they are a Colorado corporation were also factors in our selection process. We are aware that Wixco's application has generated some opposition by local residents. It appears that everyone wants a resolution to the issue of disposal of medical waste, but does not want that solution to be located near them. It is a reality that all residents of Weld County, as well as of Colorado are responsible for the generation of some medical waste. Disposal resolution should be viewed as a county, as well as a state, issue and a location is needed to service healthcare providers.

Commissioners Our buddy George Kennedy in particular It looks to us like we ' re going to have a waste disposal system north of Hudson. I guess we have to fall heir to some bad things in this life. Is it possible for you to put up a monitoring system nearby but off of the Vvixco property? To be of any value such a device would have to be checked several times each week. It seems to me that they (tlixco ) should bear the expense of the tests and that you (commissioners ) should have the power of absolute shutdowns . There will be an ongoing change of materials being inceneratod and crocesses which are valid today may be worthless a year from now . It is most difficult to make any intelligent examinations on the site of the incenerator . Probably the samples from downwind collectors would have to be sent to laboratories at considerable expense. Vle probably are reaching a time now when we still have some leverage left . It seems hard to shut down a facility once It is going. 'We have high regard for your work thus far in 1989.

Our hopes when we moved out to this area ten years ago were that we could enjoy clean, unpolluted air. The handling of the chicken and turkey plants in this area around Hudson and Ft. Luption is not condusive to clean, unpolluted air. The EPA favors the plant owners, because there is no monitoring whatsoever. Because of toxants and polluntants and lack of county regulations, please do not allow this plant to happen. Please vote against this plant on our behalf.

Box 758 Greeley, Colorado 80632 Dear Commissioners: The Planning Commission erred in their recommendation of the waste ' incinerator near Hudson. The project is unnecessary and I urge you to vote AGAINST it next Wednesday. Exhibit A from "Infectious Wastes News" (a pro-incineration biweekly) reports that Mass. , Del. , Penn. , and Ohio have declared Moratoriums on their biowaste incineration decisions. Although the article does not admit it, the reason is that they're learning that DIOXINS and PATHOGENS are spewed into the atmosphere if the incineration process is not monitored carefully. A deluge of medical liability claims may descend some day. The Greenpeace article (Exhibit B) supports this possibility, particularly in the paragraph on "fugitive chemicals". As you may know, there are "fugitive pathogens" and "fugitive dioxins", too. I am a consultant for the chemical waste and incineration industry and am very aware that homework needs to be done about these issues. New innovative chemical and biological remedies for infectious waste disposal are burgeoning. They will make the need for another incinerator unnecessary. It will be a dinosaur. I consult for a company called Isolyser Corporation, for instance, whose product circumvents incineration. It reduces the need for incineration and it's gentle to the environment and human life. Three distribution firma carry it in Colorado. I am also aware of other innovations which preclude the Weld County incinerator, not to mention the additional incinerators which have already received permits. I hope you will consider a Veto of this incinerator project or, at least, declare a Moratorium. I am enclosing some product literature about the Isolyser which, I hope, will convince you that there are many other waste options than harmful incineration. I hope I have helped you and your fellow-Commissioners with this letter. Someone must slow this madness down and start exploring viable alternatives to incineration. S erely, (4�� George W.

The one-year moratorium that started in March, says Kevin Ganson, a senior environmental specialist at the Department of Environmental Protection's (DEP) Medical Waste Hotline, restricts construction of commercial, regulated medical waste incinerators. At the end of the moratorium, the DEP is required by the consolidating rule to submit a study with recommendations to the state legislature on medical waste incineration. Ganson says the report will include a breakdown of who generates what, as well as how much is generated. The recommendations are supposed to include statutory/regulatory changes deemed necessary, opinions on the adequacy of current incineration capacity, and suggestions on new technologies. Some problems with the rule, according to Pointon, are the effect of the moratorium and the costs involved in registration (necessary for tracking and licensing). If incineration demand climbs but no new incinerators are allowed, Pointon says, "You' ll have 100 smokestacks [per existing site] instead of one now. " Eliminated in the consolidating rule is the federal exemption for small-quantity generators (SQGs) of medical wastes, who must now track their refuse (home generators, such as insulin users, are still exempt) . Pointon says now that SOGs are required to be part of the tracking system, the registration fees with the DEP will cost them more than disposal alone used to cost. Haulers and intermediate handlers of medical wastes must also register with the DEP. Ganson agrees that registration tees will cost more. He also says existing incineration capacity statewide is adequate for the duration of the moratorium. By Harry Lin FOUR STATES HAVE INFECTIOUS WASTE INCINERATION MORATORIUMS WHILE STUDYING CAPACITY NEEDS Massachusetts, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Ohio all have holds on the operation of new commercial medical waste incinerators. Why? The states say they need time to study their infectious wastes incineration capacity needs. Massachusetts' "study period" covers all incinerators, not just medical waste facilities. Delaware's moratorium on building new medical waste incinerators started in September, 1988, according to N.C. Vasuki, general manager of the Delaware Solid Waste Authority (DSWA) . During the hold, says Vasuki, a committee made up of state experts, hospital authorities, funeral home directors and the like developed regulations and suggestions for "medical waste disposal options." The subsequent report, submitted to the state at year's start, yielded regulations which, Vasuki says, should be adopted very soon. Accompanying the moratorium is a new law specifying that the DSWA will construct an incinerator to take in any regulated medical wastes not being sent to another authorized site. The law should be signed by Gov. Michael Castle soon, making the DSWA incinerator the designated one in Delaware (no out-of-state wastes will be accepted). (Continued) A EXN/$iT 890235 Page 4 MORATORIUMS (Continued) "Any price they (DSWA] charge is it," says Eugene Wolinsky, president of the Association of Delaware Hospitals. The designation of the DSWA incinerator combined with the hold effect of the moratorium, says Wolinsky, "eliminates competition." He says it could create a medical waste incinerator monopoly and subsequently drive up the cost of health care. The Massachusetts moratorium extends only to the final "operating permit" for incinerators (all types) , according to Kay Dziuba, information officer with the state's Department of Environmental Protection. Calling it a study period from October, 1988 to October of this year, Dziuba says the hold is part of a larger "waste management program" and its main goals are to encourage recycling and stimulate waste reduction. An in-house study to suggest methods to reach those ends is part of the moratorium, she says. The study should be completed by October, but it is possible -- depending on the study' s results and recommendations -- that the hold will be extended for more than a year. About a dozen already-started incinerators were put on hold because of the operating permit moratorium, according to Dziuba, but some of those were expansions of existing facilities. "We wouldn't oppose the study period," says George Wescott, director of management and technical services at the Massachusetts Hospital Association, "but we wouldn't want the study period extended to an indefinite moratorium." Wescott emphasizes that the association wants medical waste incineration done in Massachusetts so that no hospital will have to ship to other states. Pennsylvania's moratorium holds permitting for all "commercial infectious and chemotherapeutic waste incinerators," according to David Hess, executive director » of the state' s Senate Environmental Resource and Energy Committ A stud __'t,brt t covering the "demands and requirements" of such facilities i art o the 6-dh/fr's 7//e moratorium, passed in July, 1988. Hess says the study should submitted to the e77/7q54. state' s Environmental Quality Board by mid-September. Following public hearings on PAR t?) the report, according to Hess, the earliest the moratorium could be lifted is // October of this year. The Pennsylvania Bureau of Waste Management was assigned to come up with the study and any possible plans for storage, handling, and disposal of medical and chemotherapeutic wastes. Ohio has a nine-month incinerator moratorium bill tied up in a recessed Senate. The bill, which has passed the state's House already, would not allow the permitting of any new medical waste incinerators which have not already requested a permit before the moratorium goes into effect. In other words, according to Jennifer Lane Maier, spokeswoman for Ohio's EPA, no new medical waste incinerators would be permitted under the moratorium; only those already in the permitting process prior to the moratorium' s approval. The state Senate Energy, Natural Resources, and Environment Committee has held one hearing on the proposed moratorium, but the summer recess will preclude any senatorial approval of the legislation until at least the fall session.

The System especially addresses the potential hazards presented by sharps to healthcare employees in the workplace, and to the health of the public upon disposal. Other types of infectious waste, such os blood-soaked gauze sponges, etc, can also be disposed of In the System. As you will see,the System has specific advantages for use by the small waste generator. Unlike most sharps containers,the Isolyser container is rigid,leakproof,puncture resistant,and non-reusable. The size of the neck opening allows safe access for the disposal of sharps,etc.,but makes attemptS to remove waste from the container difficult. During the collection phase the system provides: - 1) a bacteriostatic environment for the waste, which reduces the overall bio-burden (and among other advantages, provides odor control) 2) an end-point chemical disinfection process (phenol is the base), which is bacteriocidal and sporocidal 3) terminally encapsulates the waste in a very firm gel,which changes the physical appearance of the waste, and also eliminates the danger of spillage, leakage and breakage. During 2) the end point chemical disinfection phase, the temperature in the container rises to 150 degrees F and 2-4 units of atmospheric pressure are produced. When completed, the Isolyser process has changed both the biological form and the physical form of the waste, and has rendered previously infectious material non-infectious. The system allows the generator to be in full control of the treatment process for infectious waste generated on the premises and,therefore, more in control of the generator's compliance and liability status. When the Isolyser container goes out of the door,the generator knows the waste has been effectively treated and that the first link in the chain of potential infection has been broken. The ISOLYSER® System meets the EPA toxicity standards for transportation, landfill, and incineration. Isolyser fills a pressing need for the small waste generators in rural areas who do not have access to waste haulers,and for other small waste generators whose volume of infectious waste is too small to warrant a pickup service. The ISOLYSER®System is a safe,efficient,effective,and inexpensive method which allows the small waste generator to reasonably maintain compliance. Implementing the system in terms of staff and space requires little adjustment in office routines,and will be complementary to OASHA recommendations. Few small waste generators have the capacity to steam-sterilize their infectious waste. Nevertheless their liability carriers will expect them to comply with any regulation requiring steam sterilization and/or incineration or face losing coverage. The cost of the ISOLYSER® System (under $30 per 4 liter container) is Inexpensive in comparison to alternate methods of hauling, treatment and disposal, and therefore, contributes to the overall goal of reducing the cost of medical care to the consumer. We urge you to look carefully at this System. A demonstration can be arranged at your convenience. 892933 ISOLYSER I DIRECTIONS FOR USE ISOLYSER POINT-OF-USE WASTE SYSTEM FOR SHARPS ND INFECTIO S WASTE The ISOLYSER System includes an EPA registered phenolic germicide that disinfects and provides odor control.

County Commissioner - - - ( . . Mrs. Jackie Johnson F.O. Box 758 Greeley, CO 80632 Dear Mrs. Johnson: We want to state and be entered into your record that we strongly oppose the WIXCO bio-medical waste disposal plant to be built at Tire Mountain in Southern Weld County for the following reasons: Concern 1. WIXCO will cost Weld County more in outlay of funds than it will bring in in revenue. A. Health Department Inspections: Increased manpower will be mandatory to monitor such a hazardous plant. B. Roads: The roads must be paved and they must be continually maintained so that no surface holes or obstructions exist. This will be a considerable expense to the taxpayer. Concern 2. Roads: County roads have many hazards: Slow moving traffic such as machinery and farm trucks that often pull onto the road from fields. There are many crossroads, many times the views are obstructed by tall plants. There are children playing on bikes and waiting for school • buses. Mr . Potter of the Health Department stated to a group of concerned citizens that in his opinion the greatest hazard of the WIXCO plant is the possibility of an accident with hazardous waste being spilled, occurring as the hazardous materials are being transported down our roads. If you decide in favor of this plant , I want assurances for the following: 1 . That the roads will be paved. 2. The the road will be maintained with potholes being filled immediately within 24 hours. 3. That WIXCO drivers be required to report any and all potholes and other obstructions. 4. That any reported problem will be dealt with within 24 hours to maintain all possible avoidance of accident not due to human error. 5. That roads accessing WIXCO will be cleared and sanded within 24 hours after a storm. 6. Should an accident occur. The spill will be cleaned up and the area including the affected ground treated - disinfected - immediately within 24 hours. That nothing involving the accident will be left untreated. With oil prices again on the rise, will the county be able to maintain the paved roads in the manner prescribed above? Or will we again be faced with gigantic potholes that force people to drive around them on the wrong side of the road. Or could we be faced with another dirt road with its hazards of fugitive dust. 830958 Will W, ..O truly add enough money to th county to support the type of roads required for transport of such hazardous waste. We feel that the Tire Mountain is not a good location for this plant and thatit .should be built along _a state highway. - Concern #3 Location -of the business: A. Tire Mountain is a proven fire hazard and will be until the tires are buried in 1993. We do not believe any type or incinerator should be placed on the property until the tires are properly buried. B. We feel that half of a building to house 2 kilns, scrubbers, conveyor belts, geiger counters, computers, showers, and incoming waste is a totally inadequate amount of space. C. For such hazardous materials, we feel that a machine shop sharing the premises could be a possible source of accident or fire. D. We question the lack of WIXCO ownership of property. If they can 't afford to own their own property, can they afford the liability of an accident, or will that be another Weld County expense? E. We feel that a chain link or other appropriate type of fencing should be mandatory around the hazardous materials area. This is necessary for protection should any unforseen problems arise. Plans may be perfect, people are not. We do not want wildlife or pets getting into contaminated waste and spreading disease. F. We believe the whole area should be paved so that should a spill occur due to some unforseen human error or problem, the problem can be rectified immediately without contaminates being overlooked and subsequently becoming airborne in fugitive dust that can contaminate crops, livestock , and people. Concern 4 Age of WIXCO's equipment: A. The kiln is over 20 years old. Are we going to take WIXCO 's word for its safety? We want you to hire an independent expert, someone that is not connected to WIXCO in any way, to inspect and investigate this piece of equipment and see if it can indeed handle the proposed load. The kiln must be able to work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. B. Scrubbers: Are these new or are they also used? If used, how old are they and what were their performance records? They too should be inspected by an independent expert. C. Computers: We want assurances that over-rides cannot be placed on them. We do not want that plant operating if a malfunctions occurs. Concern 5: That Weld County will became a hazardous waste dump for the Front Range and beyond. WIXCO claims to collect 60,000 lbs. of medical waste from Weld County each year. That is about one ton a day. If WIXCO burns approximately 750 lbs. an hour per kiln it should take them about one day a week to burn Weld Counties waste using just one kiln. WIXCO claims to have 11 to 13 clients in Denver. What they failed to mention was how many pounds of waste these clients generate. If the clients are hospitals, that amount could be considerable. 890958 The st. of Colorado generates about 2 88 thousand pounds of waste per day. Where will the hazardous waste, to be burned at Tire Mountain, really come from? Do we want Southern Weld County to become the waste capital of Colorado and beyond , or are_.their more lucrative and more acceptable industries that will want -to -come to this area - . especially in view of our location to the new International Airport. To Summarize: We feel WIXCO needs to be checked out by an independent expert with no connections now or in the past to the WIXCO organization. WIXCO needs to be located on their own land, in a building built for the express purpose of waste disposal along already established state roads closer to the source of their major suppliers of waste. They need to use up to date, state of the art equipment. They need to carry liability insurance that will cover the costs of accidents, spills, and damages to persons in areas affected by their pollutants. Please, remember that you are representing us, and your first concern is to us. We put our trust in you. We do not feel that this particular business will benefit any of the people in Weld County and that in the long run it will be detrimental to both our health and to the future development of the county.

Last year my kidneys failed and I had a transplant in July, 1988. After that operation , it is required for me to take immune suppression drugs for the rest of my life.

My concern about this proposed infectious waste iricerierator- is the concentration of infectious diseases and the type of germs that maybe improperly handled-either- in transportation or :in incomplete burning.

Lupton, Colo. Jackie Johnson Weld County Commissioner - - P.O. Box 758 i0 ,T _ Greeley , Colo. 80632 • Dear Ms. Johnson; I was born and raised on our south Weld county farm. I couldn' t wait ( I thought ) till I was grown to get away from the farm, so after school I moved to Denver and later to southern California (seeking fame and fortune , I guess) . I came home from work one day and saw our one year old son playing in a play area (about 50 ft. by 60 ft. ) for our 50 unit apartment complex. I suddenly realized what Weld County Colorado has to offer its residents and we began to make plans to return home. It took about three more years of planning and saving but we finaly made it. I have been farming the "Home Place" for 20 years now and our son has grown to become a fine man: maybe the climate , freedom of the country , good schools, or just great friends and neighbors or Navin; a horse of his own had a lot to do will what he has • become and our daughter is now enjoying growing up here . (She says if we have to move she is staying here. ) With the approval of the new Denver airport and its boundry only a few miles south of the Weld county line , the door of opportunity stands open for southern Weld County. But with progress comes problems and tough decisions. Now WixCo is applying for permission to build an infectious waste incinerator only 3 miles from our home and if approved many others will follow. With proper planning, this end of the county/will grow and bring in families, busineses, schools and churches and it while continue to be a great place to raise children. Weld county tax base will receive a much needed boost.Many people will benefit. How many people want to move into an area that is burning infectious waste? If there is a "spill" and the news media Our last national press was not for our outstanding agriculture or schools or industry , but rather the "unexplainable" black cloud of smoke from the Tire Mountain Fire. Could the next national headline read: DIOXINS FOUND IN WELD COUNTY MILK AND BEEF ??? Please , for the sake of our families, for our property values, for the future of Weld County , vote no on WixCo on August 30. Sincer . Yours Ralph Camp,e 9547 WCP 41 Ft.

Box 758 Greeley, CO 80631 Dear County Commissioners: I am writing about the proposed Wixco medical waste incinerator on Weld County Road 41 North of Road 22. There seems to be a number of unanswered questions regarding this waste incinerator. One question in my mind is the inherent damage to our air and the air for our grandchildren. I also wonder about the regulations for this type of incinerator and who will be enforcing the regulations. Are the persons proposing this waste incinerator prepared to use the most up-to-date technology to ensure the people of Weld County that there won't be a disaster? I wonder! Frankly, this thing scares me. I don't believe there has been enough planning and preparation for this type of incinerator for Weld County. Please, for the betterment of our county, consider this proposed endeavor carefully. I hope that you will see fit to deny this request from Wixco. Thank you for a better Weld County.

Box 758 Greeley, Colorado 80632 RE: Application of Wixco and Tire Mountain (Docket No. 89-38) Dear Weld County Commissioners: In the near future, the Concerned Citizens of Weld County will submit a detailed analysis explaining why the Application for Certificate of Designation submitted by Wixco Services, Inc. should be denied. I am writing at this time to address specifically the thoughtful comments made by Commissioner Ann Garrison at the August 1 Planning Commission meeting. Commissioner Garrison noted that the preferable solution of reducing the generation of infectious waste is not a realistic option. She went on to state that of the possible "second best" solutions to the medical waste problem incineration is a better alternative than landfilling. On the whole, Commissioner Garrison's points were extremely well-taken. How- ever, there are technical problems with Wixco's application which demonstrate that, even if incineration is an acceptable alternative, Wixco's proposed incinerator remains unacceptable. I am enclosing an exhibit from a recent Colorado Air Pollution Control Division proceeding which summarizes facts about commercial medical waste incinerators in Colorado. The exhibit demonstrates that, in purchasing its incinerator and pollution control equipment, Wixco spent less than one percent (1%) of the average amount of money spent on incinerators and air pollution control equipment for new medical waste incinerators in this state. A choice to accept a medical waste incinerator in our community does not compel a decision to allow Wixco to go forward with such a low- budget operation. The reason Wixco's incinerator is so much cheaper than its com- petitors is that, rather than employing modern state-of-the-art equipment, Wixco is proposing to use a rotary kiln that is over twenty years old and was not designed to burn biomedical wastes. For your information, I am enclosing the Air Pollution Control Division exhibit discussed above, and also letters written by the Arvada City Manager and the Westminster City Attorney to protest location of the Wixco incinerator in Jefferson County. Wixco gave up on the Jefferson County location, and moved to Weld County, because of the Jefferson County Zoning Administrator's determination that long-term commercial use of this medical waste incinerator is not a permitted use for an Industrial- Three (I-3) zone district. That determination is also enclosed. 890958 nn • -` 1 Board of County Commissioners August 25, 1989 Page 2 Thank you for your consideration of this letter.

COLORADO 80002dosp - Office of the City Manager PHONE303-421-Z5SO - - _ 431-3000 September 22, 1988 Mr. Abe Vasquez Colorado Department of Health Air Pollution Control Division Stationary Sources Section 4210 East 11th Avenue Denver, Colorado 80220 - Subject: Comments of the City of Arvada Concerning Air Emission Permit Application by International Process Research Corporation for Operation of a Biomedical Waste Incinerator Dear Mr. Vasquez: The City of Arvada has serious concerns regarding the operation of the proposed International Process Research Corporation biomedical waste incinerator located at 5906 McIntyre Road near Arvada. The City understands that an air emission permit application is pending for this facility and offers the following comments with respect to this application: 1. The City has not been provided adequate time to review this application and has many unanswered questions regarding the operation of a biomedical waste incinerator directly adjacent to and upwind from 95,000 city residents. The notice announcing the public comment period for the application was not published in Arvada's local newspaper. 2. The Division must consider under its jurisdiction not only stack emissions from this incinerator but issues related to the transport, storage, and handling of biomedical wastes destined for this incinerator. Waste transport, storage, and handling plans must be addressed in the application and must either be enforced as provisions in the final emission permit or through a separate agreement between the State and the permit applicant. The permit applicant should provide information on how incoming wastes will be identified and screened. Additionally, the incineration of hazardous and radioactive wastes should be prohibited. 3. The rotary kiln to be used for this incineraton process was not originally designed to burn biomedical wastes. If a permit is granted, it must specify strict operational procedures to optimize the efficiency and safety of the burn. This should include, but not be limited to, standards for feed rates, acceptable kiln and afterburner temperatures, and the inclusion of an automatic waste feed cutoff system to shut down the incinerator if operational parameters fall outside acceptable specified levels. The permit should require strict inspection procedures to be followed to identify and repair refractory damage or leaky seals in the kiln. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, air pollution control equipment should be oversized to handle extra flue gas flow resulting from the infiltration of gas through leaky seals. 890958 Letter to Abe Vasquez - Comments on Proposed Biomedical Waste Incinerator Permit - From Neal G. Berlin - September 22, 1988 Page2of2 4. The list of parameters the Division currently requires to be monitored for stack emissions may not be adequate for biomedical incinerators. Because the waste streams to be incinerated are not well defined, the list of parameters to be monitored should be more extensive in order to protect human health and the environment. Stack emissions should not only be monitored for standard emission parameters like carbon monoxide and particulates, but also for certain metals, volatile organic chemicals, dioxins, and radiochemical parameters. Emissions data should be closed-monitored and made available to concerned outside agencies including the City of Arvada. The City strongly urges that these comments be addressed by the permit applicant prior to the Division's approval of a temporary permit allowing a stack test. The City further has serious doubts about the Division allowing this operation to proceed without the State having biomedical waste disposal regulations in place. We appreciate your consideration of this matter. Siincereelly yours, Neal G.

The Farmers' High Line Canal and Croke Canal are located within 1,000 feet of the proposed medical waste incinerator. The City is extremely concerned about the potential contamination of water transported in the Farmers' High Line Canal and Croke Canal through the operation of the incinerator and activities necessarily associated with the operation of such processes. The Farmers' High Line Canal and Croke Canal transport public drinking water for use by over 75,000 City residents. Any contamination of water carried through these canals in the vicinity of the proposed incinerator would necessarily result in the contamination of Standley Lake, which is the primary water storage facility for the Cities of Westminster, Thornton, and Northglenn. 2. The City feels that the approval of a medical waste incinerator within 1,000 feet of such a large and vital drinking water source would be contrary to the legislative declaration contained in section 25-7-102, C.R.S., which states that the purpose of the Colorado Air Quality Control Act is to protect the health, peace, safety and general welfare of the people of Colorado. ' 3. The issue of medical waste disposal, as you know, has recently gained widespread attention in the public media. Many states are fl' currently in the process of responding to this relatively new category of environmental pollution. Undoubtedly, at the time the Colorado Air Quality Control Act and existing regulations concerning air quality control were enacted, the potential harmful effects of medical waste Incineration were not considered. The City believes that until the Air Quality Control Commission has 690959 Mr. Abe Vasquez Page 2 September 15, 1988 - given specific consideration to the potential health, safety, and welfare consequences of the Incineration of medical waste, including activities necessarily associated with such processes, the Division should not act on such permit requests. 4. We understand that it may be the position of the Air Pollution Control Division that transport, storage and handling of medical waste in connection with the operation of a medical waste incinerator is not within the permitting jurisdiction of the Division. We must respectfully disagree if that is in fact the Division's position. We do not view the statutory authorization contained in the Colorado Air Quality Control Act so narrowly. The transport, storage, and handling of medical waste is an absolutely necessary attribute of a medical waste incinerator. Consideration must be given to providing absolute assurance to the public that there will be no hazardous or radioactive materials in the medical and biomedical waste materials delivered to the site for incineration. It is now an accepted fact that ordinary solid waste disposal activities have associated with them a certain proportion of hazardous waste materials despite whatever efforts and laws may be in place to prevent such irresponsible human behavior. To say that such does not occur is to simply ignore reality. In connection with the operation of the proposed medical waste incinerator, therefore, it must be assumed that hazardous or radioactive materials will be delivered to the site for incineration. The applicant should be required to submit a plan for the detection of unlawfully introduced hazardous and radioactive waste that unintentionally or intentionally may be delivered to the site for incineration. Given the unknown and still to be determined risks associated with medical waste incineration within 1,000 feet of a public water supply, the City believes it would be totally reasonable for the Division to require the applicant to address the transportation, storage and handling of waste to be incinerated pursuant to the requested permit. 5. Under existing Colorado law, medical waste has not yet been included under the statutory definition of hazardous waste. Other F .'- states, however, have regulatory schemes which specifically address • biomedical waste disposal, transportation and storage. It is clear that Colorado will eventually enact regulations to address the 01:p`" disposal of medical waste. However, until such regulations are enacted, the Division should refuse to issue permits for medical waste incineration until the potential consequences of such i • permitted activities have been addressed. If the Diyi5ion c_jond determine to proceed_with..the -issuance_of-this-permit,-the applicant should at least be required to enter-into--a separate • 89095 a�� Mr. Abe Vasquez �__ Page 3 - September 15, 1988 agreement with the Division to abide by those medical waste disposal regulations that have gained national acceptance. 6. Given the many unknowns associated with this proposed incinerator, the applicant should be required to acquire and maintain environmental pollution liability insurance. 7. We reiterate our position that the permit should not be approved at this time. However, before any permit is considered, a siting study should be completed to determine if the proposed site is the best possible site for such a facility. In addition, if and when the permit is issued there are many more technical concerns the City would request be considered. a. First, the existing facility was not designed for this specific application. The City would request that an independent design firm be required to perform a critical review of the proposed operation. The chosen design firm should be experienced in the construction of medical waste incinerators. b. The City is concerned with the possibility that inadequate consideration has been given to the possible adverse consequences of chemicals in their gaseous state being converted to another, more harmful state upon reaction with storm water runoff or with water contained in the Farmers' High Line Canal and Croke Canal. The facility should not be allowed to be operated when prevailing winds (as may be defined by the Division) are in the direction of the Farmers' High Line Canal and Croke Canal. c. We understand that acid gas will be produced in the / incinerator which the applicant proposes to neutralize with a "scrubber" using an alkaline solution process. We believe it to be very important that the applicant be required to have in place continuous Ph monitoring and control of the stack emissions. d. Stack emission temperatures should be continuously • monitored and controlled to present the formation of volatile organic carbons (VOC's) and dioxins. Combustion temperatures should be required to be kept above 1800 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. In order to monitor the efficiency of the combustion process, continuous monitoring control of carbon monoxide in the stack emissions should be required. Oxygen concentration should also be monitored to assure complete combustion. e. Automatic shutdown of the incinerator should be required when any of the operational parameters are in a state of . noncompliance. 890958 Mr. Abe Vasquez Page 4 September 15, 1988 f. The City believes an emergency response plan should be • required to be submitted by the applicant. This plan should be -" reviewed and approved by local and state authorities prior to issuance of the permit. g. Records of all parameters subject to mandatory monitoring should be required to be submitted monthly to the Division with copies to the Jefferson County Health Department 1 J and the City of Westminster, and such other local government authorities who may have an interest in the absolute operational • integrity of the proposed incinerator operation. The operator should be maintained to immediately report any occurrences where any of the required operational parameters fail to meet the requirements of applicable regulations or the applicant's permit. h. The permit should recognize the zoning interpretation of Jefferson County given to the applicant which limits the quantity of wastes to be processed during the first . 18 months of operation. • This limitation should be included in the permit. I. The applicant must conduct incineration tests to prove compliance with permit conditions before a final permit is granted. The applicant states in a letter to Jefferson County that the applicant will establish particular operational procedures to optimize the incineration operations through testing of the incinerator. The results of this optimization procedure should be incorporated in this permit. This letter is enclosed for your reference. Yours truly, 114,VYt ,4.Martin R.

As you know, it is my opinion that the Industrial-Three (I-3) zone district would permit use of the existing kiln for incineration in concert with the research conducted by IPRC. Further, it is my opinion that the long term commercial incineration is not a permitted use. The appeal which has been filed requests that the Board of Adjustment review the "transportation, receiving, and incineration of infectious waste in the I-3 zone district. " The Board of Adjustment is empowered - - to hear and decide upon appeals where it is alleged that there is an error in any order, requirement, or decision made by an administrative official in the .enforcement of the Zoning Resolution. This appeal will be scheduled before the Board on December 7, 1988 at 9 : 00 a.m. , 18301 West 10th Avenue, Golden. Please call me if you have any questions regarding this procedure. I have enclosed a copy of the Board of Adjustment procedures for your review.

The Supreme Court has declared waste . (this includes infectious waste) to be a commodity which can be shipped across state lines. Any facility which has the capacity for waste can accept it from ANYWHERE and the state cannot prevent it. IS THIS WHAT VELD COUNTY WANTS?? 2. Incinerators create dioxins and furans in the combustion process. Dioxins are so toxic that a safe level of exposure cannot be determined. They have been identified in incinerator ashes, gaseous emissions and even in the soils near the incinerators. Once released into the environment dioxins and furans persist for years, selectively concentrating in the tissue of living creatures - fish, animals and humans. Landfills containing incinerator ash were the third largest dioxin source. Those highly toxic chemicals have been linked to higher cancer rates, miscarriages, birth defects, liver disease, neurological damage and immune system disorders. Incineration contributes to global atmosphere problems. Chlorine and florine compounds emitted by incinerators attack the ozone layer and catalyze its decay. Incinerator emissions of carbon dioxide exacerbate global warming, i. e. , the GREENHOUSE EFFECT! ! 3. Wes Potter, director of Weld County Environmental Health states that the surcharge to be paid by Wixco' s infectious waste incinerator would not cover the cost of monitoring the operation. VHAT KIND OF ECONOMIC BENEFIT IS THIS TO WELD COUNTY?? 4. The state of Colorado does not require (but recommends) insurance for this type of facility. Weld County Department of Planning Services requires that the APPLICANT develop and post performance guarantees (no money amounts stated) to handle such issues as closure of the biomedical incineration facility, contamination issues; and Emergency response. There is no mention of liability insurance for UNSEEN EVENTS. Would YOU have ever thought that a bolt of lightening would set 2 million tires on fire! ! ? WHO IS ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE? WILL IT BE US, THE TAXPAYERS, WHO ARE ALREADY PAYING FOR SUPERFUND CLEANUPS ALL OVER THE NATION?? 5. Companies proposing incinerators say they will meet emissions standards for applicable state and federal laws, but that' s not too hard since there are no regulations for many of the chemicals coming out of stacks. California, acknowledged to have some of the strictest standards because of their pollution problems, requires stack testing of hydrocarbons, metals, particulates, carbon monoxide, opacity, dioxins, and furans. The draft of the Colorado Health Department standards for infectious waste incinerators only requires testing for particulates, hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide, and opacity (or 89098 HELEN MOORE LETTER SUBJECT: WIXCO APPLICATION visible emission) . Even with the proposed Colorado standards an operator can exceed the 10 percent opacity limit as much as 6 minutes each hour (to be monitored quarterly) . WHY DON'T THE CITIZENS OF VELD COUNTY (PAD THE STATE OF COLORADO) DESERVE AS STRINGENT OF STANDARDS AS THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA?? (Or does our air have to get as bad as theirs before we do??) 6. The incinerator proposed by Wixco at Tire Mountain has been operated for 20 years in research and development projects. I believe the baghouse and wet scrubber are equipment used with the kiln in research and development in Golden (not new) . Stack gas scrubbers do not reduce the quantity of toxic emissions from an incinerator they simply shift them from one medium (air) to another (water or soil ) . The average age of infectious waste incinerators surveyed by Adams County in their Waste Management plan was 4 . 5 years. In this survey the most advanced incinerator utilized a dry scrubber and baghouse filter. The aged Wixco incinerator will have a baghouse and wet scrubber. DOESN' T VELD COUNTY DESERVE NEW, STATE- OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT?? 7. Item 2, under Special Review Permit Development Standards USR 842, states "Approval of this plan may create a vested property right pursuant to Article 68 of Title 24 C. R. S. , as amended. " I THINK THAT OUR COUNTY ATTORNEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN TO US AND TO YOU, OUR COMMISSIONERS, EXACTLY WHAT VESTED PROPERTY RIGHT THIS PLAN MAY CREATE! ! 8. "Hospital waste may also contain potentially toxic components. For example, red bag waste in the United States may contain potential toxic compounds generated by hospital operations that are currently exempt from regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) . Such chemicals include waste pharmaceuticals, cytotoxic agents used in chemotherapy, and anti-neoplastic agents. " (Source: "Hospital Waste Combustion Study: Data Gathering Phase, " EPA-450/3-88-017, December 1988) . Wixco Services, Inc. , Engineering Design and Operation Report, Section 3. 4. 5 Hazardous and Radiological Waste Identification states that "Quality control personnel will do spot checks of loads to ensure compliance with this requirement . In the event that hazardous materials are identified as being mixed with the biomedical waste, the generator and appropriate regulatory agency will be notified. " Continued disposal of inappropriate waste will result in the termination of the collection service. ARE SPOT CHECKS OF LOADS (NO SPECIFICS AS TO FREQUENCY OF CHECKS STATED IN APPLICATION) ENOUGH TO INSURE THAT HAZARDOUS, BUT NOT RADIOACTIVE, WASTE MIGHT NOT SLIP THROUGH? HOW MUCH DISPOSAL OF INAPPROPRIATE (HAZARDOUS) WASTE WILL BE PERMITTED BEFORE SERVICE TO THE GENERATOR 890958 1 HELEN MOORE LETTER SUBJECT: WIXCO APPLICATION WILL BE TERMINATED. CAN THEY SCRUB THE AIR EFFICIENTLY IF THEY DON' T KNOW THE COMPOSITION OF THE WASTE THEY ARE BURNING?? 9. Wixco' s application states "the sterile ash from the kiln and air cleaning will be transferred (how will it be transferred> to drums on a disposal bin figs transport. The ash produced from the operation is not hazardous and can be disposed of in an ordinary landfill . " Midwest Research Institute found that as much as 53 percent of the heavy metals (foil wrappers, printing ink, plastic made of PVC and sharps) burned in an incinerator are released in the stack gases. Metals not emitted in stack gases are -1-ik S{-L y deposited in the incinerator ash. The Washington State ,(44„ Department of Ecology tested both fly and bottom ash / Vt t'L1('-,'A-QA�K'r, it �}, l m les and one bottom ash sample were "extremely CULt- 'e 6-Ctwjc� i\U- hazardous waste" and one fly ash and 4 bottom ash samples 4•m Pwere "dangerous waste. " �ri1 Despite the fact that actual hazardous waste not detectable by Geiger counter may slip through Wixco' s "spot checks" until they terminate the generator, WHY ARE VE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE THAT THIS ASH IS NOT HAZARDOUS WHEN VI%CO AND OUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAVE NEVER TESTED ANY ASH FROM THIS EQUIPMENT BURNING INFECTIOUS WASTE AND HAVE Sill NO TIME FRAME FOR FREQUENT TESTING OF ASH?? 10. "Wixco Services, Inc. intends to service the Colorado Front Range Area. This service area may be expanded in the event that a need is demonstrated. " (from Wixco' s Services, Inc. Engineering Design and Operation Report> . Wixco currently has clients in Weld County generating approximately 60, 000 pounds per month. The Adams County survey estimates that roughly 44, 000 to 80, 000 pounds of waste is generated in Colorado each DAY from hospitals. For comparison, Wixco' s Weld County contracts generate 30 ton per MONTH or one ton per day compared to the total 22 to 44 tons per day generated in the state. DOES VELD COUNTY WANT TO DISPOSE OF 20 TO 40 TIMES THE MEDICAL 'WASTE CREATED IN VELD COUNTY?? These are only some of the issues brought to Weld County by the Wixco' s application for an infectious waste incinerator. There are applications pending in Adams County and if denied there they will come to Weld County for consideration. I feel Weld County needs to take the time to step back and examine exactly what we are creating if this sort of facility is allowed to go in with the existing rules.
