Under the Agreement, the Respondent will remove and dispose of RACM located within a building and four trailers at the Site, as well as remove other materials at the Site which contain hazardous substances, such as drums, tanks, aerosol cans, and other containerized items. The Agreement also calls for the reimbursement of response costs incurred by EPA in overseeing Respondent's implementation of the cleanup work.
