Page 3 of 20
1.0 OVERVIEW
A CVS/pharmacy Retail Pharmacy Store (Store) typically generates a relatively small amount of
hazardous waste during normal store operations. This Contingency Plan has been developed
for Stores in keeping with applicable federal and state hazardous waste regulations. This
Contingency Plan provides emergency response procedures to minimize health and
environmental hazards resulting from fire, explosion, or other releases to air, soil, or surface
water related to the storage of hazardous waste consumer products which may occur at a CVS
Store. This Contingency Plan establishes a system of procedures to be used at the Store in
response to an incident involving hazardous waste consumer products.
This Contingency Plan is not a stand-alone document. It is designed to operate in concert with
other emergency preparedness plans and procedures in effect at the Store, specifically
including the Store's Emergency Procedures Plan and Emergency Procedures Plan Summary.
The purpose of the Emergency Procedures Plan is to educate store managers and colleagues
and allow for coordinated actions during a workplace emergency. The Manager-on-Duty is
responsible for the implementation and enforcement of the Emergency Procedures Plan. All
store-specific information must be completed on the Emergency Procedures Plan Summary
for each store and the Summary must be posted in the break room, at out-dialing phones
including near the hazardous waste storage areas and in MinuteClinic locations. Store
colleagues are trained to the Emergency Procedures Plan and Contingency Plan.
CVS has developed this Contingency Plan for stores that have attained Large Quantity
Generator (LQG) status, Small Quantity Generator (SQG) status as required by some states, as
well as other stores at which CVS has elected to implement the Plan. It is intended to provide
additional emergency preparedness and response information that is correlative to the risk
posed by hazardous waste located on-site.
MAY 2016
REVISION DATE
Page 4 of 20
IMPORTANT NOTE: Classification as a large quantity generator (LQG) at the store level is
almost exclusively due to the generation or accumulation of small amounts of consumer
products or pharmaceuticals that are regulated as "acutely hazardous waste" when discarded.
Additional information on potential acutely hazardous wastes is provided in a later section.

2.0 G JERAL STORE INFORICA .10N
In keeping with a typical Store profile, this Store generates relatively small amounts of
hazardous waste through normal Store operations. Typical Stores have a secure pharmacy
area in which all pharmaceuticals must be stored, the front store floor area where all customer
activity occurs, and a backroom area in which the hazardous waste storage area is located as
well as additional storage for consumer products and other program support resources. A
manager's office and employee break area complete the store footprint.
Select Stores have a wet photo lab, usually near the customer entrance to the front store floor
area.
Store colleagues are normally present within most areas of the Store during normal working
hours. Store colleague work schedules vary between full and part time colleagues. Some
colleagues may have occasion to handle waste products during their work days. It is very
unlikely an occasion will arise where there will be only one colleague at the premises.
Telephones capable of summoning external emergency assistance are available for
colleague use.

3.0 Hmic_k-ki DOUS WASTE GdNUZATION
Stores have a U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hazardous waste generator
identification number (EPA ID Number). Re-notifications are prepared on behalf of the Store
(USEPA Form 8700-12) as needed to identify new hazardous waste streams generated, or to
identify changes in generator status or other noteworthy changes to Store information. Store
colleagues receive initial and annual refresher hazardous waste management awareness
training, in keeping with the CVS/pharmacy Hazardous Waste Management Program.
The Hazardous Waste Storage Area is located in the back room. Spill response equipment is
located nearby and is replenished as it is used. Additional hazardous waste storage containers
may be located in the pharmacy (hazardous pharmacy waste only) and/or in the wet photo lab,
where present (hazardous photo waste only).
Hazardous waste generated at the store generally consists of broken, spilled or damaged
retail products, over-the-counter medications, waste pharmaceuticals and, in some locations,
silver-bearing photo processing liquid waste, filters, or outdated photo processing chemicals.
Waste items, including waste retail products, may be regulated as hazardous waste either
because they are specifically listed as hazardous in Federal or state regulations (e.g., certain
pharmaceutical waste) or because they exhibit one or more of the following hazardous waste
characteristics: corrosivity (acidic or basic), toxicity, flammability, or reactivity. The Store may
also generate electronic waste and universal waste lamps and batteries that must be managed
in accordance with specified regulatory requirements in order to avoid being regulated as
hazardous waste.

Specifically, the primary waste products known to have the potential to result in the generation or
accumulation of greater than 2.2 lbs of acute hazardous waste are (1) nicotine from waste
nicotine replacement therapy products and (2) warfarin-family pharmaceutical waste generated in
the pharmacy. Except in very rare cases, CVS Stores do not otherwise reach LQG status,
because they do not generate large amounts (greater than 2200 lbs.) of other hazardous waste.

4.0 EMERGENCY COORDINATO 9UTIES
This Contingency Plan will be implemented whenever there is a fire, explosion, or release of
hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water that could
threaten human health or the environment. Due to the nature of the retail setting, the
Emergency Coordinator role has been divided between a local contact and 3E Company, a third
party service provider which ensures expertise is available 24/7. The local contact and 3E
Company must work together on any emergency requiring the implementation of this plan. All
store management colleagues are authorized to act as the local contact, and a member of store
management is always present during store operation.
3E Company (3207 Greyhawk Court, Carlsbad, CA) has been retained by CVS's Environmental
Department and authorized to act as the designated Emergency Coordinator at all CVS Store
locations. 3E Company has the expertise and authority to decide when the procedures outlined
in this Contingency Plan should be executed. If an emergency situation develops at the Store,
such as a fire, the first Store colleague(s) on the scene will immediately call 911 and then notify
the Store Manager and 3E Company. Contact information for 3E Company and the Store
Manager is provided on the Emergency Procedures Plan Summary Posters located next to out-
dialing telephones at the Store. Please note that due to confidentiality concerns, additional
personal information such as home addresses and phone numbers for the Store Managers or
other store management colleagues is not included in this document. CVS has taken every
effort to design this Contingency Plan such that personal information is not necessary for
successful implementation.
3E Company has been delegated the authority to commit company resources necessary to
implement this Contingency Plan. Where needed, 3E Company will assist CVS with making
NIAY 2016

arrangements with CVS's approved emergency response contractor, and shall have authority to
perform the following:
• Engage CVS's approved emergency response contractor for response to a Store
emergency,
• Deputize/enlist other properly trained Store colleagues to assist him/her in the event of
an emergency, and
• Enlist Store colleagues or other emergency response personnel to direct or divert traffic
in the event of an emergency.
The rvlanager-on-Duty, is required to assist 3E Company with emergency response at the Store
level, where possible, and is responsible for contacting CVS's Corporate Environmental
Representative in the unlikely event that 3E Company is inaccessible to Store colleagues.

5.0 EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCEDURES
The decision to implement this Contingency Plan is the responsibility of the Emergency
Coordinator, and depends upon whether an imminent or actual incident involving a fire,
explosion, or release of hazardous waste or constituents could threaten human health or the
environment. The Emergency Coordinator should use judgment based upon his/her experience
with the processes involved in making this decision and confer with CVS's Corporate
Environmental Representative, as appropriate. Not all incidents require the implementation of
this Contingency Plan. In fact, minor incidents will not generally require implementation of the
Contingency Plan.
The following universal notification and coordination actions will be followed when a fire,
explosion, or hazardous waste spill that requires the implementation of this Contingency Plan
Occurs.
1. The first Store colleague(s) on the scene of an emergency situation will immediately
notify the Manager-on-Duty or call 911, if there is concern of an immediate threat to
human health or the environment.
2. The Manager-on-Duty will determine whether he or she has the training and capability to
address the situation (e.g., a spill of a known chemical that can be contained).
3. If the emergency involves a large spill that cannot be readily contained, may result in
exposure to Store colleagues or the general public, or may result in a release to the
environment (e.g., outside the building or down the drain), the Manager-on-Duty must
contact 3E Company via the 24-Hour CVS Health Safety Hotline at 888-464-2960. 3E
Company will then be responsible for contacting a CVS Health approved Emergency
Response Contractor, and all appropriate state or local authorities with designated
response roles as warranted by the nature and scope of the emergency. 3E Company
will also be responsible for notifying the National Response Center if needed.
MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 11 of 20
4. Contact information for the state environmental agency, local fire and police
departments, as well as other local emergency services, will be on file with 3E Company
and the Emergency Response Contractor and immediately accessible in an emergency.
5. To the extent possible, the Emergency Response Contractor will identify the character,
source, approximate amount, and aerial extent of the release (if applicable). The
Emergency Response Contractor will make additional notifications as required by
applicable regulations.
6. These include notifications to the National Response Center (phone number on file with
the Emergency Response Contractor and immediately accessible in an emergency), the
State Emergency Response Commission (phone number on file with the Emergency
Response Contractor and immediately accessible in an emergency), and the Local
Emergency Planning Committee (phone number on file with the Emergency Response
Contractor and immediately accessible in an emergency).
7. The Emergency Response Contractor will take all reasonable measures necessary to
minimize the potential for the impacts to human health and the environment.
8. Until emergency responders arrive, to the Manager-on-Duty should monitor building
conditions and be prepared to provide information to emergency response personnel.
Where required, local fire, police, hospitals, and the state emergency agency have been
provided a copy of this Contingency Plan along with aid notification letters. Copies of the
correspondence with these agencies and emergency response providers are available through
the CVS Corporate Environmental Representative.

7.0 EVACUATION PLAN
In the event of a major emergency, it may be necessary to evacuate the premises. Store
colleagues will follow the CVS Emergency Procedures Plan, available on-site.
Details on the outdoor designated rally point are outlined on the Emergency Procedures
Plan Summary poster.
Colleagues are instructed to remain calm, walk to the nearest exit and leave the building
immediately. Exit doors are indicated by signs in the Store and exit routes are clearly marked.
There are no Store processes that require continued operation during an emergency.
Colleagues should not attempt to fight fires or use fire extinguishers to put out fires unless they
have been trained to do so and the training has been documented and is available for review
at the Store.
All colleagues, customers, patients and vendors are expected to leave the Store immediately
when an evacuation alarm is sounded or an evacuation order is announced. Each colleague
needs to be aware of at least two exits in the Store in the event one is compromised. After
leaving the Store, colleagues should proceed to the designated outdoor rally point.
