Box 144880 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-4880 To Whom It May Concem: 1)SW/4-2W-0037,443 Re: CVS Pharmacy # 10234: 4240 Harrison Blvd., Ogden, UT 84403 This letter serves as notification regarding a CVS Pharmacy in your jurisdiction located at the address above that uses/stores hazardous materials, and generated hazardous waste. Furthermore, CVS Pharmacy would like to take this opportunity to request support from your agency in the unlikely event of a fire, explosion, or uncontrolled release of a hazardous waste pursuant to 40 CFR 262.256, 40 CFR 262.262, and Utah Administrative Code R315- 265-1 . CVS Pharmacy uses & stores hazardous materials and generates hazardous waste. The hazardous materials at this facility are stored throughout the retail sales floor area, in the receiving/stockroom area, and in the pharmacy. The nature of the hazardous materials on site includes: flammable and combustible liquids; compressed, flammable gases; aerosol products; corrosive liquids; unstable and water-reactive liquids; solid oxidizers; irritants; and chemicals classified as causing "Other Health Hazards." Hazardous waste is generated primarily resulting from severely damaged, pre-packaged consumer products, or unsaleable pharmaceuticals, or from small, incidental spills or releases of chemicals. Facility personnel at CVS Pharmacy work throughout the entire facility. Due to the possibility that this store has or will be registered as a Large Quantity Generator of RCRA hazardous waste primarily resulting from low volumes of acutely hazardous pharmaceutical or nicotine-containing wastes, the CVS Pharmacy Retail Store Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan is enclosed for your review, pursuant to 40 CFR 262.262.

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. MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 5 of 20 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. N1AY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 6 of 20 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. MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 7 of 20 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. MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 8 of 20 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 REVISION DATE Page 9 of 20 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. MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 10 of 20 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. MAY 2016 REVISION DATE Page 12 of 20 6.0 EMERGENCY EQU1VIEJT Emergency response equipment is maintained and inspected, as appropriate, and spill kit supplies are replenished as they are used. Due to the space-constrained retail setting, no equipment with extra capabilities above and beyond standard are required. In addition to the information located on the store's Emergency Procedures Plan Summary posted by telephones related to emergency response equipment, a list of emergency response equipment available on-site is below. This information also includes equipment capabilities and general equipment locations: Emergency Equipment Physical Description Capabilities Location(s) Fire alarm (where applicable) Varies by type Provides an audible alarm capable of being heard throughout the building Varies by location Fire extinguishers A, B, and C fire extinguishers, 10 lbs Extinguishing A, B, and C fires NOTE: Colleagues Throughout store 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.
