What hazardous materials are going to be stored at the site?
The principal hazardous material stored onsite will be 19% by weight aqueous ammonia.The aqueous ammonia will be stored in two 10,000 gallon storage tanks. The storage area will be surrounded by a berm to contain any spill in the unlikely event of a release.The ammonia solution to be stored is similar, but more concentrated than the ammonia solutions found in many household cleaning products. A worst-case offsite consequence analysis conducted for Eastshore demonstrated that offsite ammonia exposure levels would be safe even in the unlikely event of a spilling of the entire tank contents into the bermed area.There are a variety of other chemicals that will be stored in small quantities onsite.
