registered with the BOH; many of those not registering were gas stations 

 without service facilities (included in the underground storage tank 

 inventory), tire shops and car rentals. VThen these are omitted, there was 

 at least a 70 percent compliance rate with the bylaws. 



6. A. 3 Hazardous Waste Manifested 



A summary of the manifested wastes hauled from ZOC #1 by licensed 

 haulers with totals for both 1985 and 1986 is provided in Table 6.6. 

 While the total amounts of waste hauled increased somewhat from 1985 to 

 1986, the most significant increase was in the niomber of businesses with 

 EPA notification numbers and in the number manifesting waste. This shows 

 an increase in program implementation and a significant amount of waste 

 being hauled from a critical groundwater protection area. Figure 6.3 

 shows the proximity of toxic and hazardous -materials storers, registered 

 in accordance with the Barnstable Board of Health's Toxic and Hazardous 

 Materials Bylaw, to public -supply wells. 



6. A. 4 Spills and Leaks

 underground storage tanks. Additionally, the State inventory of confirmed
