Abstract
This report summarizes existing data on damage histories associated with land and non-land based hazardous waste storage, treatment, and disposal facilities. The objectives were to develop estimates of potential damages due to hazardous waste mismanagement and to develop an extensive data base delineating the types of damages that could occur and the reasons for those damages. While a total of 929 sites were selected for evaluation by this study, because very specific criteria were utilized in selecting these sites, they are not necessarily representative of all hazardous waste damage cases. However, the study has provided information that should be useful in gaining an understanding of: kinds of events that have resulted in contamination or damage at different facility types, kinds of chemicals commonly implicated at different facility types, kinds of remedial responses that have been initiated at a number of sites, and kinds of facilities and facility operations that have led to contamination and damage incidents in the past.
