Jan M. Torres Park Curator San Juan National Historic Site 501 Calle Norzagaray San Juan, Puerto Rico

Re: Water Sampling at San Juan Historic Site at El Morro Powder Magazine & Casamata, San Juan, PR

Dear Mr. Torres:

A sampling for chemical substances was performed on 6 November of 2020 at the San Juan National Historic Site El Morro. Two sites were identified were the materials are stored: Powder Magazine in El Morro at Casamata, San Juan Puerto Rico.

The purpose of this sampling was to collect and analyze the chemical substances located at several containers which preserve historic artillery ammunition to determine whether the substances are hazardous for disposal purposes. The parameters measured where RCI (Reactivity, Corrosivity, Ignitability) and TCLP Metals (Toxicity Leachate Procedure) in compliance with local, state and federal regulations and standards, established by EPA and the local agencies for the proper management of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. The sampling and analysis was performed by Sanco Laboratories, Inc. and the results were evaluated by Milagros Caraballo Vargas and Harry Peña Ruiz.

A total of eighteen (18) samples were analyzed by Sanco Laboratories, Inc. in San Juan Puerto Rico.

Thirteen (13) samples of the containers resulted above the allowed levels and shall be disposed as hazardous material in compliance with the RCRA. Attached find the analytical results and chain of custody.

Sampling Materials:

1. Clear PVC Bailer

2. Sample bottle

3. Bucket

4. Gloves

5. Sharpie

6. Book

7. Chain Custody

8. Ice

9. Collection container

10. Fridge

ZIMMETRY ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CORP.

San Juan Historic Site Water Sampling

El Morro Powder Magazine & Casamata San Juan, PR

Procedure:

All storage containers were labeled with a unique identification number, starting from 001 to 018. In each container two types of extraction and sampling were carried out. The first was to identify RCI and the second was to identify TCLP Metals. Each sampling bottle was previously identified with date, time, sampling location and description of the type of sample to be carried out in the same way as its chain of custody. 1.0 L of the chemical substance contained in the containers and a solid sample of a partition wood from one of the containers were collected in each sampling bottle.

Twelve (12) samples were collected at the Powder Magazine storage and six (6) at the Casamata storage. Seventeen (17) samples were collected and a Clear PVC Bailer was used for the extraction of the chemical substance, where the previously identified sampling bottles were completely filled, and quickly capped after each collection. Fifteen (15) containers were identified that contained liner and three (3) that did not. The containers that did not contain liner were of the following samples:

001, 003 and 016.

Results:

The following samples results are above the regulatory limits and are considered as a hazardous waste.

Thirteen (13) samples resulted above of the levels allowed. Seven (7) samples were positive for RCI (SJHS-002, SJHS-004, SJHS-010, SJHS-014, SJHS-015, SJHS-017 and SJHS-018), presenting Corrosivity parameters (EPA HW No. D002).

Eight (8) samples resulted positive for TCLP Metals. The samples: SJHS-001, SJHS-003, SJHS-004, SJHS-008, SJHS-014 and SJHS-016 resulted with levels of Chromium above the regulatory limit (EPA HW No. D007) and samples: SJHS-005 and SJHS-006 resulted with Lead levels above the regulatory limit (EPA HW No. D008).
