. _ � <br /> � Attachment B _ <br /> DEPARTMENT OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT <br /> RISK MANAGEMENT DIVISION <br /> MEMORANDUM NO. 98-059 <br /> August 12, 1998 <br /> MEMO TO: Sheri Adams <br /> FROM: J. Barry Leonard, Risk Manager <br /> SUBJECT: PAINT COLLECTION PROJECT <br /> There is a small risk in a project like this provided we use experienced contractors for collection, <br /> fuel blend disposal and disposal of unusable paint and cans. <br /> The risk comes from the fact that under Federal law we become a "waste generator" and a <br /> potential responsible party should pollution occur and remediation is needed. <br /> We would like to point out that hardened paint can be disposed of in a landfill, (Refer to <br /> brochure) attesting to its low pollution probability. <br /> Given that we will be using experienced contractors and dealing with a very low probability of <br /> unmitigated pollution, this project is an acceptable risk (even without considering the benefits to <br /> the community). <br />
