In 1994 and 1995 these materials accounted for over 25 tons of hazardous waste legally 

 transported to an off-site treatment storage and disposal facility where most were burned 

 for energy recovery, solidified, or extracted 



KPC expects the current rate of reporting generation of hazardous waste to remain 

 constant or increase to some degree during 1996 and 1997 This is due primarily to 

 obsolete and outdated materials being sent ofF-site for disposal However, beyond 1997, 

 the company expects the generation of hazardous waste to decrease substantially 



Hazardous waste at Ketchikan Pulp Company Company's camps, sawmills, and the 

 helicopter hanger continues to be reduced, recycled and burned on-site for energy 

 recovery. Used oil is also burned on-site in the power boilers for energy recovery These 

 facilities are also currently reducing supplies of obsolete inventories and may experience a 

 brief increase in waste generation activities for 1996 Waste codes traditionally found at 

 these facilities include DOOl, D002, and D008 as a result of on-going mobile-equipment 

 maintenance activities 



KPC reports all waste generation activities in the Biennial Hazardous Waste Report as 

 required by sections 3002, 3004, and 3007 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery 

 Act and Alaska Statutes 46 03 302 and 46.03 305 Completion of this report fulfills both 

 the State of Alaska Hazardous Waste Report and the Federal Biennial Report for each odd 

 calendar year. In addition, KPC submits a waste minimization questionnaire as a 

 supplement to the State of Alaska's Annual Hazardous Waste Report. In 1995, Alaska 

 reduced it's Annual Hazardous Waste Report's annual submittal requirements to biennial 

 submittal to correspond with the Federal reporting requirements 



KPC has also been aggressive in reducing its non-hazardous waste A Recycle Process 

 Improvement Team ("Recycle PIT") has been charged with increasing recycle rates and 

 decreasing wastes for off-site disposal Ketchikan Pulp Company became a Charter 

 Member of EPA's Voluntary WaSteWiSe program in 1994 This program fosters 

 industry's innovative efforts to pledge and meet goals for reduction and recycle of non- 

 hazardous wastes. 



Oil 



The oil spill resulting from the Exxon Valdez in Prince William Sound, Alaska in March 

 1989 catalyzed the enactment of oil spill prevention and discharge programs by several 

 regulatory bodies
