The following sections address specific components of the Heritage health and safety program. Management Leadership and Employee Involvement 1.1 Heritage maintains a top level world class behavior based program centered on proactive measures, safety awareness and continual improvement: A key component to our system is our safety observation program which includes general observations and near misses. Positive and negative safety observations are required to be submitted by all personnel. in the company as a safety awareness tool and also as a proactive measure to address potential unsafe acts and conditions prior to and incident. They are tracked, analyzed, and communicated to all personnel at all levels of the organization. 1.2 The Heritage Executive. Safety Team has been created to assure a continued commitment to our world class safety system and to continually improving our system and culture. Some of the functions of the team include: • Development and management of the Heritage 6Safety program which is a top level safety awareness program designed to both train employees in six key elements of our safety program as well as solicit employee suggestions for safety improvements and recognize employees for outstanding safety related actions.. • An annual safety survey is conducted to proactively address issues, get ideas for improvement, and instill a positive safety culture.

It is used as an overall company gauge as well as a benchmark for all individual Heritage locations and is communicated to all personnel on a monthly basis. 1.4 The over sjte of the Heritage H&S programs is managed through the Heritage Corporate Compliance Department but responsibility for implementing health and safety requirements, fostering and culture of safety first throughout the organization and performing all job functions in a safe manner lies with location / project management and each employee working at Heritage. 1.5 Review and auditing of our health and safety program by 3111 parties takes place on a regular basis.

Worksite Analysis 2.1 ' For all on site projects site safety plans are developed and communicated to all workers involved in the project.

Heritage Services and Facilities All of our environmental services can be conveniently accessed through our network of Service Centers and satellite offices. Through this network, Heritage has extensive experience in managing a variety of waste disposal programs for many Fortune 500 Companies in refining, chemical production, pharmaceutical, metal smelting/production, transportation, retail and consumer product manufacturing. One cornerstone of our business is the treatment and disposal of hazardous materials. Since our inception, Heritage has focused on applying new methods to render materials no longer hazardous. Also; Heritage has always aggressively sought beneficial re -use for certain wastes. With these objectives in mind, Heritage has strategically located waste treatment centers throughout the nation. Heritage operations consist of five (6) waste treatment and disposal facilities (including a RCRA incinerator, RCRA Fuel blending facility and a RCRA Subtitle C landfill), a research and development facility, and nine (9) remedial and emergency response centers. These waste treatment and disposal facilities are Part B Permitted, and accept a wide variety of inorganic and organic, hazardous, non -hazardous and universal wastes. Heritage's Part B permitted facilities are located in Coolidge, AZ, Kansas City, MO, Indianapolis, IN, Roachdale, IN, Benton, AR and East Liverpool, OR In addition to these fixed facilities, Heritage operates a number of treatment plants and Qn-site operations for clients throughout the United States.

The Heritage EIS system is free -of -charge and has no limitations to customer access. This is a secure system, and access is available only to direct waste customers and generators, not consultants or brokers. Once the request for customer access has been received via the EIS website at www.heritageeis.com, Heritage personnel are asked to verify contact information in order to have a unique username and password created and emailed to each contact. The city s corporate environmental personnel will be granted access to view activity for all customer locations. This has proven to be a valuable asset and tool for corporate personnel in terms of nationwide, regional and state related waste disposal needs as well as in the monitoring of costs. Each customer site would also have electronic access to their individual waste and invoice records at their site within this system, should this service be requested. Reporting capabilities within this program allow, for sites and corporate. personnel to view and time ranges of interest (such as a specific date, a 2-week range, 22 days, etc.), and are not limited to only monthly or annual reporting features. All transportation and disposal services that have ever been invoiced to the customer by Heritage will be available for viewing within this system. This web -based program allows access to valuable tracking and reporting capabilities, without the need for expensive software or extensive training for you staff. Many of our customers find this system extremely valuable as. a compliance resource, as it allows immediate access to waste tracking reports and RCRA and DOT information by wastestream. This can be very.beneficial for both internal and external audits, as data regarding any invoiced waste shipments to Heritage can be found in this system. This regulatory -type data includes waste types, waste codes and DOT descriptions associated with each wastestream, final TSDF°s utilized, manifest numbers,_ shipment dates, form, source and processing codes, etc. EIS offers a variety of reports, all of which are available for Excel download. Examples of reporting capabilities include: Biennial Reports, Invoice Details, Invoice Summaries, Wastestream Information, Wastestream Pick Up Date, Wastestream Constituents, Wastestream Disposal Costs, Wastestream Volume Summary, Wastestream Details, and Wastestream Volume Summary Monthly. A few of these examples have been provided as a separate attachment. The EIS Inventory module is used to manage an inventory of containers of all sizes and chemical inventory items .at a customer's site. EIS Inventory integrates with the rest of EIS to provide a comprehensive business process management tool for a customer's environmental staff. Heritage continues to extend the functionality of the EIS Inventory module to meet various and sometimes unique ,customer requirements. An example of this is the recent implementation of intrinsically safe bar code scanners which the customer will use to remotely update the inventory location of roll off boxes within the customer's plant `safe zone`. Customer enhancement requests are reviewed and prioritized in line with their universal applicability, with most enhancements being delivered to all customers as part of the base inventory application. All data that is entered is easily exported to Excel, providing an easy to use, self-service mechanism for additional reports, system interfaces or analysis.

N e Executive Summary/Scope of Services Attachment A Heritage understands that the City of Richmond would like to partner with a company to manage the Tax -Away Day program. The City of Richmond would require the contractor to provide the overall transportation and disposal services required by the HHW events. Having partnered with several cities and counties for HHW services for 20+ ,years, Heritage understands that meeting the needs of the community requires a great deal of flexibility and commuhication between the city/county staff and the contractor. As an Indianapolis based company with over 200 employees in the Indianapolis metropolitan area, Heritage has all the local resources necessary to provide the required resources to run a successful program, even with limited notice. Heritage will utilize its own transportation and disposal facilities, allowing efficient and timely responses to the City of Richmond while also keeping costs to a minimum. Heritage can meet all the requirements of the proposal, and have many of the requirements in place today. Please see references below for recent HHW events performed. - 6/24/17 Crawfordsville, IN Jane Collisi 800-211-2750 o Averages 400-600 cars per event - 6/17/17 Subaru Lafayette, IN Michelle Long 765-449-6698 o Averages 200-300 Cars per event - 5/6/17 Greencastle, IN Jane Collisi 800-211-2750 o Averages 400-600 cars per event - 4/15/17 Jackson Co.

While the Heritage Technical Service group will lead and coordinate the events a pool of approximately 75 personnel from the disposal facility, transportation group, laboratory, remediation group and the research group routinely work together at the HHW collection events. Forming a team of individuals with diverse backgrounds, experience and expertise. Heritage believes in hiring well-educated, experienced persons for all positions in the organization and provides an ongoing training regimen to continue that education and build on experience. Continuing education and training is fundamental part of Heritage's personnel development policies. Heritage employees participate in regular safety meetings. Other special education seminars are held periodically to update the technical staff to new regulatory requirements, new equipment or research that may benefit the company's operation. These efforts ensure that each person assigned a project is capable and prepared to perform his or her duties in a safe and proficient manner. All individuals who participate in Heritage's HHW program have received at a minimum 24-hour hazardous waste training, while most have completed their 40-hour OSHA HAZWOPER. All individuals working the Tox-Away DaytToxDrops are also household hazardous waste trained.
