CITY Of SAINT PAUL
INTERDEPAftTMENTAL M.EMORANDUM
T0: Ron J. Guilfoile
FROM: Tony Ack'ermann
DATE: Jan�uary 5, 1990
RE: Disposal, of Hazardous Material
II .
During the process of investigating City owned work sites for any activities
that might gene,rate hazardous wastes, we have come across quantities of
chemicals that �!are no longer being used. There are chemicals from the Police
Department crir�'e lab (attachment a) , from the Division of Public Health
laboratory (att',achment b) , and chemicals from various park sites that are now
stored at the hlealth center (attachment c) .
Last fall the n;arcotics squad discovered a quantity of chemicals and removed
them from a cra�ck house to be stored in a bunker like structure at the Police
impound lot. D�uring the process of determining how to dispose of these
chemicals Bay W'�est Environment Services was contacted. At a meeting we had,
with them at th�e impound lot, I mentioned that the Police crime lab and the
health center liaboratory had various chemicals that they need to dispose of
and perhap,s we �could package them all together. Further meetings were held
during Dec',ember of 1989. Staff from Bay West met with Lt. John McCabe and Jim
Gag from t'he Police crime lab and Diane Neisius, Lab Director of the Division
of Health.
We gave Bay West the lists of materials we wish to dispose of (attached) .
They are i�n the' process of evaluating them and determining the most
appropriat� and� cost effective method of disposal . As of this date the
chemicals '�are still being evaluated. We have no estimates of costs yet.
Because this pr�cess was started in November of 1989, no monies had been
budgeted for thie removal of these materials for 1989, and no monies were
budgeted for the year 1990 for this removal and disposal . I have told all
parties that thie Division of Risk Management will work with the Budget Office
to secure the funding for this one time removal and disposal cost. The
rational for this is as follows:
1 ) The material comes from six different sources.
2) For econ�omic purposes, material from different sources will be
packaged� for disposal in common drums/containers.
3) The tota] quantities are comparatively small (i .e. one 30 gallon
dru�m) .
� - - � � � o,a��
. �'9
4) To separate out what comes from where and who is responsible would
probably dquble the cost.
I need your a►ssistance in securing funds that will be needed to ultimately pay
for this proCess. I will keep you updated as to the progress.

Dear Ms. AnderSon:
This letter co�lcerns invoices 4�103444, 103834, and 104061, totaling $7,404.43
which have not ,yet been paid. Our budget office has put that money into
a contingency �eserve account. We can't pay the bill yet because the money
must be transferred from the contingency reserve to our account in order
to be ava�labls for payment to you. This involves City Council approval.
The normal procedure is to submit our requisition to a committee of the
City Coun¢il who then makes a recommendation to be acted upon by the City
Council as a whole. Permission is then given to expend the funds. We
have requested that enough money be included to pay for any late payment
charges. ',
We regret that these payments have not been taken care of, and respectfully
request your patience in this matter. Please call me if you have any
questions.
Sincerely,
�� �

facilities. Th y ha to be removed and disposed of following E.P.A. and P.C.A. guide-
lines. Bay Wes , In . was given that responsibility. Because it was more economical to
package all waste or o e disposal fee, Risk Management took responsibility to pay the bill.
