SKINNER LANDFILL SUPERFUND SITE

Dear Sir or Madam:

This firm represents a group of companies, including The Dow Chemical Company, Ford MotorCompany, GE Aircraft Engines, Morton International, PPG Industries, Inc., and VelsicolChemical Corporation (hereinafter "the Group"), in an action to be filed on their behalf in March1997 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. The Group consists ofcompanies that have incurred response costs associated with the Skinner Landfill in WestChester, Ohio ("the Site") and are parties to a Unilateral Administrative Order and Consent Orderwith the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") regarding certain activities atthe Site. The Complaint will seek from you and a number of other defendants recovery of costsincurred and to be incurred by the Group.

Most of the defendants have already received some background information about the SkinnerLandfill from EPA. Upon information and belief, the Site was used for waste disposal from the1930s until the late 1980s. The Site was operated as a family-owned business from the time theSkinners purchased the property (in or around 1947). All members of the Skinner family thatworked at the Site have been deposed or interviewed regarding operations of the landfill andidentification of PRPs. In addition, Elsa Skinner, who maintained the accounting records for theSkinner business for the entire time it was in operation, provided an accounting ledger spanningthe period 195 5 to 1987.

Many parties have already received nexus data that describe the evidence allegedly tying them tothe Site. Enclosed with this letter is an additional package referencing your alleged nexus to theSite. This information was obtained through the efforts of EPA and the Group. EPA conducted aResponsible Party Search, took several administrative depositions and conducted several witnessinterviews, and obtained responses to Section 104(e) requests for information from a number ofPRPs. The Group hired an investigator to identify additional PRPs and to interview individuals

BEVERIDGE & DIAMOND, P. C.

with knowledge of the Site and its customers during the years of operation.-

As we mentioned above, the Group intends to file its Complaint in March, but will temporarilyrefrain from serving the Complaint on you in the hope that the parties can reach consensus on anAlternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") process to be conducted in lieu of traditional litigation.We believe that this approach is more equitable and cost effective for all the parties concerned.As you know, EPA has already endorsed such an approach in this case to bring about anallocation that is fair, reasonable, and acceptable to the parties.

As you know, there is a meeting scheduled for March 11, 1997 in Cincinnati to discuss these andother issues. We will provide to you shortly before or at that meeting a model ADR protocol thatwe would like to use as a starting point for developing a consensual ADR process. The Groupwants to stress that you and your client will have input on the type of allocation process that willbe most effective for this particular Site. We anticipate using the next month to entertaincomments on the ADR procedure and to develop an acceptable ADR process.

We encourage you to attend the March 11th meeting. If you have any questions before then,please feel free to call me at (202) 789-6019, Fred Wagner of my office at (202) 789-6041, orMichael Kay at (517) 636-7872.

Sincerely yours,

Karl S. Bourdeau

]_/ At the request of EPA, the nexus materials have been redacted in an initial effort to protect the privacy ofnon-Skinner family member witnesses. We anticipate that full, unredacted versions of the nexus materials will beprovided to cooperating PRPs during the course of the ADR proceedings.

in the Cincinnati area?

A. Basically all of my life. Maybe

eight or ten years when I was a small child I was

throughout Southern Indiana, and then perhaps

around '84 to '90 I was in Indiana again, you know,

but other than that, I've always been around

Cincinnati.

Q. Is all of your schooling, education

in the Cincinnati area?

A. Outside of my grade school was in

Indiana

Q. Okay. Has your employment history

all been in the Cincinnati area?

A. Basically.

Q. Could you trace that briefly for us,

just in a general sense.

A. General from my first job to my

current job, is that where we want to go?

Q. Yes, that would be fine.

A. Let's see, how ridiculous could it

be. I sold papers as a child. Then I worked in a

greenhouse. Would you like to know when I -- what

to do with the Skinner Landfill, what about those

jobs?

Yeah, or your jobs as an adult. What

would you say your trade is or has been?

A. Well, my trade is, I'm a diesel

mechanic, heavy equipment mechanic, also heavy

trucks, class A trucks. I worked from around '67

to '70 basically in that area for a company, A Okay

Leasing, that was on 6256 Wiley Road, and that was

when I first learned about Skinner's landfill

because Keenan Oil -- This has never been said to

anybody. Keenan Oil used to dump a lot of their

residue oil at the lagoon there at Skinner's

landfill.

Q. Do you know how to spell Keenan Oil?

A. K E E N A N , ! presume.

Q. Was that a Cincinnati --

A. They're by Cincinnati Gardens.

Anchor-Hocking I believe bought the company.

Q. And how do you know that they dumped

materials there?

A. Because I took care of the trucks,

and the trailers, and tankers, and everything for A

Okay Leasing, which called for Keenan Oil.

Q. When you say took care of them --

A. I was a mechanic.

Q. -- you repaired them?

A. Yes.

Q. Did you actually --

A. No, I didn't drive it.

Q. So how did you know directly what was

being hauled by the --

A. I don't know what was being hauled

exactly as far as the chemical makeup. I know

mostly it was creosote and other by-products that I

guess Keenan bought from other manufacturers or was

given to them or something that they couldn't use.

Q. How did you become aware that Keenan

was using the Skinner Landfill site?

A. Well, later on when I worked with

John Skinner, I knew about the lagoon. He cut one

lagoon out of rock, and the gentlemen at Keenan Oil

told him it wouldn't work, and this old man

Skinner, this was Albert, didn't take much heed to

what they said, and it did leak. It leaked through

the cracks of the stone.

That's the one down below. It's not

up in the dumper where the lagoon was up by the

smoke stack. In other words, the first lagoon that

the EPA looked for, that's the one that was covered

up the weekend prior to the EPA coming on the

landfill. That's when John Bushelman had every

piece of equipment he owned there.

Q. Okay, we'll cover that in a little

while. When you were at A Okay, did you talk to

drivers; is that how you knew what was going on?

A. Well, James Hurley was one of the .--

he worked for Harley Hale, which originally owned

or I presume started A Okay Leasing. Ken Riley

owned the business when I worked for A Okay or he

owned the business when I worked for A Okay

Leasing, and he told me later that he had hauled a

lot of that stuff there, and, of course, the lagoon

smelled like creosote, but that was years before

the Skinner thing came up. That was back in the

late '60's.

Q. So did you know the Skinners at that

point?

A. Not really. I didn't really meet

John until around '73, although, I knew of him, you

know, but I never — John and I were very good

friends. I worked with John for a long time.

Q. Where did you work after you worked

at A Okay Leasing through 1970?

A. Oh, God, many places, Gallenstein

Construction, Continental Plastics. You know, I

probably worked a hundred different places in my

life.

Q. Were all of those jobs as a truck

mechanic?

A. Yeah, sometimes, you know, usually,

whatever pays, you know what I mean. I drove

trucks and repaired them. I designed furniture and

things, tools to cut plastics and so on.

Q. Where did you work at the time you

first came in contact with John Skinner or any of

the other Skinners; do you recall?

_A. I believe the first time I personally

met John I was up at Mason at a friend of mine's

garage, Junior Robinson's, and that's when I first

met John. In fact, John and I went and looked at a

truck that he wanted to -- somebody to assemble

it. It had been bought without an engine in it,

and that's the first time that I met John. It was

in '73. I remember that because I bought a new

Chevrolet pickup truck in '73, and the thing was

brand new and it quit on us.

Q. Pardon me?

A. It quit on us, a new car, and I'm a

mechanic, and the stupid thing quit running.

Q. Oh, okay. So did John get in contact

with you for you to repair this truck?

A. Right. Well, I never worked on that

particular truck. That truck was sold to someone

else, but I started working with John probably in

the latter part of '74.

Q. Did you have any contractual

employment relationship with him or was it a

job-by-job thing?

A. Yeah, it was just a job-by-job thing,

you know. In other words, we did a lot of work

together, in other words, we worked about 7 days a

week, 20 hours a day, which is about as steady as

you can work, you know, but we never had an

agreement that we were going to do this 6 months

from now or whatever. We just, whatever was being

worked on or the work to be done, it would be done.

Q. Did you work at the Skinner property?

A. Yeah.

Q. On Cincinnati-Dayton Road there?

A. Yeah.

Q. Was there some kind of garage?

A. No. I mean, that was doing whatever,

you know, a lot of demolition work and moving of

heavy equipment and objects and so forth.

Q. Were you involved while you were

working with John Skinner with the waste disposal

operations out there at all?

A. Well, let's.see. I personally don't

remember driving or hauling anything from Chem-Dyne

in Hamilton to the Skinner landfill. Ray did that

basically every night, you know, a lot of stuff at

night was hauled in there. I unloaded a lot of

trailers, you know, box trailers, freight type

trailers, John and I did that.

When you say Ray, for the record who

do you mean?

A. Ray Scarra, that's John's half

brother. Well, since John's dead, I guess it's not

his half brother, but John would have been his half

brother.

Q. Who was running the Skinner

operations in those days?

A. Well, I presume, of course, ownership

would have been Albert and Elsa's, but, you know,

they didn't really know what John was doing. I

remember when the problem first came around, it was

something illegally done, I didn't know that. You

know, I just took for granted it had always been a

dump or a landfill, you know, and I didn't know

anything was wrong about it, quite frankly.

You know, here's a company in

Hamilton, and this is the landfill, you know. And

I believe John only told them like 100 or 150 per

trailer load or something, and John was probably

getting a thousand. When I knew about this was

prior to the EPA coming in there, I think Kovacs is

his name from Chem-Dyne.

Q. Kovacs?

,A. Kovacs. This has been 20 years ago,

you know, and it was something I overheard the old

man saying something about 25,000, and he says that

guys crazy, it's only 2,500, and you have to make

some money out of that.

So I mean, Albert was talking to

John, so Albert had in his mind John had only got

$2,500 this last time or something or the other,

and it was actually $25,000 owed John Skinner. So

John made an immense lot of money. I mean, maybe

not millions, but hundreds of thousands, you know,

couple hundred thousand dollars. I'm just

guessing, you know.

Q. This is around the time when you

started out there, you say it was '74?

A. Around, yeah.

Q. At first, then, were your

responsibilities mostly taking care of equipment or

repairing equipment at some point or were you

immediately involved in every aspect of the

operation?

A. Yeah, basically everything that was

being done, you know. In '74, '75 John and I

worked a little over a year seven days a week every

day wrecking a real large building in St. Bernard,

the Armor. Fertilizer building.

Q. You wrecked it, you say?

A. Yeah, wrecked it. It was a

tremendous job. That's how John showed -- I mean,

John basically bought the job to show Elsa, and I

presume to show Elsa and Albert, how he got all

this money. The job didn't really pay all that

much money, but that's when John bought a new

Cadillac and a lot of equipment. Ray, of course,

whatever John bought, Ray had to have, so Ray got a

new Lincoln out of the deal.

Q. How does this relate to you? You

said you wrecked -- What's the name of the building

you wrecked?

A. We demolished a great big 800 feet

long, 200 feet wide, 100 foot high -- I did all the

A. The Armor Fertilizer building. It's

still owned by the same people/ Bill Schmit, and I

can't think of Bill Schmit's partner's name. I .

just gave them some pieces for an old truck. I

can't think. The two guys are partners.

Q. What was done with the debris and the

wreckage from there?

.A. Well, the wood was, of course, hauled

to the dump, the landfill, and the materials was

either -- of course, the steel materials that was

damaged was recycled or sold to scrap metal

dealers, you know. The steel that was usable, was

sold or shipped to people that needed it, you know,

wanted it, and other materials were sold. There

was, you know, not a lot of debris on it. It was a

steel building.

Q. In those days, the first part of the

'70's, what were you typically doing in the course

of a day or a week regarding disposal of wastes at

the Skinner landfill?

A. Well, okay. When I was up at the

dump or landfill, it was in a trailer. John would

excavate a hole, and John and I would get up in the

trailer and literally hand throw the material into

a hole and cover it up.

Q. Is this waste material you were

talking about?

A. Waste material.

Q. Would trucks be driving onto the site

with other drivers?

A. No/ not in the daytime. Like I say/

most of all of those trailers, I presume that Ray

hauled them in there at night to keep people from

noticing so much traffic. There wasn't a lot of

activity in the daytime.

Q. There were not waste trucks coming in

and dumping waste during the day time?

A. No/ no.

Q. So at night would you notice that

there were trailers there all of a sudden?

A. Well, this is a large area. I mean,

we was demolishing this large building, so what

happened there through the day I didn't see because

John and I were both on this job, and then in the

evenings when we got in/ we would unload or empty

out any trailers.

Q. And these all had some sort of waste

materials on them?

A. Well, I probably personally only

unloaded maybe a dozen trailers with John. I

personally only went and got, that I remember, one

load of material, and that was I believe Borden

Chemical up by Newark, Ohio someplace. I got that

on a drop deck truck, you know, low boy, low

platform truck.

Q. Okay. When you mention the dozen

trailers or so that you unloaded with John, what

was the waste in on these trailers?i

A. Okay. The trailers I most -- You

know, this has been 20 years ago. We almost got

killed on this one trailer, and that was a deep pit

that he dug and it was muddy, and we had the

trailer, we backed it up to this pit, and it was

too far back in the pit. We couldn't get out of

the trailer hardly, and it was muddy, and the old

man took a bull dozer and helped pull the truck up

so we could get in and out of the trailer easier.

About 5 minutes, maybe 20 minutes into the middle

of this trailer, this pit explodes, and we

literally would have got burned up in the trailer.

This was material that was in the

large, I'm going to say, 50 paper barrels that had

like speedy dry or sawdust around it to cushion it,

water?

A. You know, I should remember, but I

presume they was took up to the dump, I guess the

dump or lagoon, because there wouldn't be but a

hundred or some gallons.

Q. That would be collected, that water?

A. Yeah, wouldn't be too much.

Q. Was there names on those tankers

trucks like Chem-Dyne?

A. No. I presume them to have been

Chem-Dyne's trailers, and I presume the chemical

was hauled in by tank railroad cars. You know, I'm

just presuming this because Chem-Dyne at that time

didn't have -- didn't seem like these trailers were

good enough to run over the road or whatever. I

mean, that's what I remember about them.

Q. Okay. Would you tell us about the

incident that occurred in April, '76 when EPA came

out --

A. Was that the lagoon?

A. Was that the day that a dozen police

cars were there? Then I remember it.

A. Well, John, you know.

Q. He said -- What did he say to you

when the police and everyone came?

A. Well, I don't know what he was doing,

but he said don't let anybody in here. So I was

there, this was probably the night before, prior to

that, I don't know who it was, one of the major

network's news people came down in a large car and

started asking questions, and I said, you know,

this is not the time or place, you people have to

Q. In the interim before you said all

the police cars and all these people came back out,

what activities took place at the site?

was like a few trailers that had -- I remember one

instance there was a trailer with a license plate

on it. They was looking one way, and I just walked

around and took the license plate off the trailer.

I just pulled bolts and all. I just gave it a

pull/ and I folded the license plate up and put it

in my pocket. So seemed like at that time nobody

wanted anybody to have any evidence as to who owned

the trailer. Whatever this, I presume Brown —

on the site, there was no lagoon. The only way
