PUBLIC NOTICE – 421
Baldwin County
Addivant of Bay Minette, Alabama submitted to ADEM an application for modification of its Post-Closure Agreement for the Former Acid Lagoon which was used to manage hazardous waste at its facility (EPA I.D. Number ALD010394021) located at 43300 Hwy 225, Bay Minette. The Department has determined the facility’s modification application to be complete and has prepared a draft Post-Closure Agreement in accordance with State regulations.
Addivant operates a facility that manufactures exclusively dinitrobutylphenol (DNBP) for use as a polymer inhibitor in the production of styrene. Addivant USA, LLC is the owner and operator of the facility. The modification is due to the revision of the Corrective Measures Groundwater Monitoring Plan. In addition, the proposed permit modification includes provisions that require any other solid waste management units and areas of concern at the facility to be addressed.
Copies of the Fact Sheet, Revised Groundwater Monitoring Plan and draft AHWMMA Post-Closure Agreement are available for public inspection electronically via http://adem.alabama.gov/newsEvents/publicNotices.cnt and at the following location Monday – Friday (except legal holidays) during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. A nominal fee for copying and/or mailing may be charged.
