Please find enclosed Ambient Air Monitoring Report for the Rayonier Site Dismantling
Project for the month of June 1998 These results are being provided to you as described
in our Ambient Air Momtonng Plan for the project. We are also making this report
available to the public through the Port Angeles Library and the Peninsula College
Library
The results from the air monitoring show that the air emission control methods used
dunng the dismantling work have been effective. The air samples collected around the
perimeter of the work site were well below the action levels that are used as indicators of
effective emission controls.
We are continuing our air monitoring and emission control programs at the site. As
additional results are available, they will be compiled by our consultant, Foster Wheeler
Environmental Corp., and will be forwarded to you and made available to the public.

1.1 PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
1 INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY
Rayomer is implementing an ambient air quality momtonng program dunng dismantling
and cleanup activities at the former Rayomer Port Angeles pulp mill site. The monitoring
program was conducted as set forth in the final Ambient Air Momtonng Plan (Foster
Wheeler Environmental 1998). This report presents the results of the air momtonng
activities for June 1998
The objectives of the Ambient Air Monitonng Plan are.
1 Monitor ambient air quality for potential air pollutants related to onsite
activities;
2. Quantify potential offsite transport of project- related emissions, and
3 Assess the effectiveness of onsite emission control methods used during
dismantling and cleanup activities.
The site is a former pulp mill facility located at 700 North Ennis Street, Port Angeles,
WA. Rayomer received approval from the City of Port Angeles in July 1997 to dismantle
its former pulp mill facility Following this approval, Rayonier voluntarily committed to
develop and implement an air momtonng program. Air momtonng commenced in
October 1997 and is currently ongoing.
The air momtonng network consists of four sampling stations located as shown on
Figure 1 Air momtonng is conducted for potential air pollutants that may be generated
by site activities. The specific pollutants to be monitored and the sampling methods to be
used are based on the site activities conducted during the momtonng period.
Air quality action levels are established in the Ambient Air Monitoring Plan to use as an
indicator of the effectiveness of onsite emission control methods used during dismantling
and cleanup activities. In the event that single data point concentrations exceed the action
limit cntena, the contingency plan described in the momtonng plan will be implemented.
1.2 SUMMARY OF RESULTS
The results of the June 1998 air monitoring show that the air emission control methods
used during the dismantling work have been effective. The air samples collected around
G: \WP\1834\ 12334.DOC .9/23/98
1 -1
the perimeter of the work site were well below the air quality action levels that are used
as indicators of effectiveness of emission controls. Total suspended particulate matter
(TSP) monitors were operated at four sampling stations during 18 momtonng events, lead
samples were collected at four sampling stations during 15 momtonng events, and
dioxin/furan monitors were operated at three sampling stations during five monitonng
events. The momtonng activities followed the procedures presented in the Ambient Air
Monitonng Plan.
A summary of the monitoring results follows.
TSP measurements for the 18 monitoring events during June 1998 ranged from
2.1 to 52.3 gg/m the site action level is 150 gg/m
Dioxin/furan measurements for the five momtonng events during June 1998
ranged from 0 00005 to 0 0013 pg/m the site action level is 17.6 pg /m
(dioxin/furan concentrations are reported as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
[TCDD] equivalents [TEQs]);
Lead measurements for the 15 momtonng events during June 1998 were all below
detection limits except for Station 1 on June 30, which yielded a lead
concentration of 0 0138 gg/m the site action level is 1.5 µg/m
No visible emissions of asbestos from dismantling activities were observed during
routine inspections, and
Onsite winds were generally fight to moderate and pnmarily from the north
northwest through the west.
Site activities during this penod included general dismantling, material handling, and
asbestos removal. The Washington State Department of Ecology, U.S Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), and City of Port Angeles conducted several site visits and
inspections during this reporting period. Digester dismantling was underway during the
June 1998 momtonng penod, including removing the brick linings from the inside of the
steel digester vessels. Since the mortar used in the bnck hmng contained lead, the
removal project was performed in a constructed sealed enclosure. No other major
structure dismantling activities (e.g., recovery boiler stack dismantling, hog fuel boiler
dismantling) or site cleanup excavation activities occurred during June 1998.

1.3 PLAN MODIFICATIONS
The June 1998 momtonng penod marks the ninth consecutive month of weekly TSP and
dioxin/furan momtonng results that have not exceeded site action levels identified in the
Ambient Air Momtoring Plan. Consequently, starting in September 1998, the monitoring
frequency for TSP will be reduced to once every two weeks and dioxin/furan will be
reduced to once a month during routine dismantling activities, as established in the plan.
TSP and dioxin/furan momtonng will, however, be conducted on a weekly basis dunng
future major structure dismantling activities.

2.1 CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES
2. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
General dismantling, asbestos removal, and digester brick removal activities were
underway dunng June 1998 These activities are presented along with the TSP
monitonng data (Table 1) and with dioxm/furan monitoring data (Table 2).
Dismantling of asbestos containing materials occurred throughout June 1998 at the
Digester Building, and Recovery- Boiler Building.
Digester dismantling, including removing the lead containing bnck linings from the
inside of the steel digester vessels, was underway dunng this reporting penod. The bnck
fining removal work was performed in a sealed enclosure used as containment on the
digester vessel.
No other major structure dismantling activities (e.g., recovery boiler stack dismantling,
hog fuel boiler dismantling) or site cleanup excavation activities occurred during June
1998.
2.2 METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS
Onsite winds were generally fight to moderate and pnmarily from the north northwest
through the west during the June 1998 sampling events. A summary of the
meteorological conditions during each sampling event, in the form of wind rose figures,
is presented in Appendix A. The monthly composite wind rose of the wind conditions
during the monthly sampling events is also presented in Appendix A.
2.3 TOTAL SUSPENDED PARTICULATE CONCENTRATIONS
The TSP monrtonng results, along with the site activities on the sampling day, are
presented in Table 1 TSP monrtonng events were conducted for approximately 24 hours
starting in the morning on the date noted on Table 1
TSP measurements for the 18 momtonng events during June 1998 ranged from 2.1 µg/m
(Station 3 on June 1) to 52.3 µg/m (Station 1 on June 15). The site action level is

The highest TSP concentrations measured during June 1998 was 52.3 pg/m measured on
June 15 at Station 1 (located southeast of the primary dismantling area). This TSP
concentration is 35 percent of the 150 µg/m site action level. The three TSP
measurements from the other monitors on June 15 were 23 4, 34.3, and 43 4 µg/m at
stations 2, 3, and 4, respectively Wind conditions on June 15 were moderate to heavy
and predominantly from the northwest and west northwest.
2.4 DIOXIN/FURAN CONCENTRATIONS
The dioxin/furan monitoring results, along with the site activities on the sampling day,
are presented in Table 2. Dioxm/furan momtonng events were conducted for
approximately 24 hours starting in the morning on the date noted on Table 2. The
dioxin/furan toxicity equivalents (TEQs) are calculated and reported using the EPA
toxicity equivalence factors (TEFs) for the detected congeners, as described in the
Ambient Air Monitormg Plan. The TEQs are calculated using the measured value for
each detected congener If a congener was detected m some samples but not in others, a
value of one -half the detection limit was used for calculating the TEQs for those non-
detected congeners.
Dioxm/furan measurements for the five momtonng events dunng June 1998 ranged from
a value of 0 00005 pg/m (Station 3 on June 16) to 0 0013 pg/m (Station 1 on June 29).
The site action level is 17 6 pg /m
The highest dioxin/furan concentrations measured dunng June 1998 was 0 0013 pg/m
measured on June 29 at Station 1 (located southeast of the pnmary mill dismantling area).
This highest dioxin/fivan concentration is approximately seven thousandths of one
percent of the site action level. The dioxin/furan TEQ measurements from the other
monitors on June 29 were 0 0001 pg/m at both Stations 2 and 3 Wind conditions on
June 29 were light to moderate, with the highest winds predominantly from the north-
northwest through the west northwest.
2.5 ASBESTOS MONITORING
Visual inspection was conducted at site locations where asbestos containing matenal
removal occurs, in accordance with the Ambient Air Momtonng Plan. No visible
emission of asbestos from dismantling activities was observed based on reports from
routine inspections by Rayonier and the dismantling contractor personnel. Asbestos

Fourteen lead trip blanks were analyzed dunng the June 1998 sampling penod. No lead
was detected in the tnp blanks.
3.3 LABORATORY METHOD BLANKS
Five doxm/Furan laboratory method blanks were analyzed along with the field samples.
Method blanks are laboratory quality control samples that monitor the concentration of
contamination that may be introduced into field samples as a result of processing in the
laboratory These results are presented on Table 5

Fourteen lead method blanks were analyzed during the June 1998 sampling penod. No
lead was detected in the method blanks.
3.4 SURROGATE RECOVERY
Surrogate compounds are also referred to as internal standards and are added to all field
and laboratory quality assurance samples (method blanks, laboratory control spikes). A
surrogate is a compound that is similar to the compound (or compounds) of interest, but
that is not normally found in environmental samples. Surrogates are added to samples to
monitor the effects of 1) the environmental matrix, 2) the sample preparation process, and
3) the analytical process on the recovery efficiency of sample contaminants. For June the
average surrogate recovery rates were within the acceptable range of 50 to 150 percent,
with the exception of one congener (of the nine tested) in the three June 10 samples, trip
blank, and method blank. The recovenes for this congener were 44, 40, 43, 42, and 40
percent, which are all within the laboratory- determined limits of 40 percent. Therefore,
no action was taken, and the data are considered usable for the air momtonng evaluations.
3.5 LABORATORY CONTROL SPIKES
Three laboratory control spikes (LCSs) were analyzed along with the field samples. The
LCS is prepared using a "blank" matrix (such as a clean filter). A known quantity of all
of the individual dioxin/furan isomers is added to the LCS sample. The LCS is processed
through the same laboratory preparation and analysis steps as the field samples, and
monitors the accuracy of the laboratory preparation and analysis process. Average June
LCS recovenes were within the acceptable range of 50 to 150 percent with the exception
of one congener (of the nine tested) in one control spike (June 10). The recovery for this
congener was 46 percent, which is within the laboratory- determined limits of 40 percent.
Therefore no action was taken, and the data are considered usable for the air momtonng
evaluations.

APPENDIX A
DAILY SUMMARY OF METEOROLOGICAL DATA
Wind rose figures for each sampling event are presented in this appendix (Figures A -1
through A -6). A wind rose depicts the joint frequency of occurrence, in percent, of wind
speed and wind direction categories for a particular location and time penod. The radials of
the wind rose indicate the direction from which the wind is blowing. The length of each
radial indicates the frequency of occurrence for that direction, and the width of each radial
indicates the wind speed class. Each wind rose figure includes the penod from when the
first sampling monitor was turned on until the last monitor was turned off. A composite
wind rose of the meteorological data during each sampling event is also presented. The
wind roses are based on 10- minute observations obtained from the on -site meteorological
momtonng station.
