Department of Natural Resources tested a L000- gallon underground hazardous waste storage tank Monday at Kaieigh s Ashland Chemical Co. to determine the extent of the company's violation of federal and state hazardous waste laws. V Ashland received orders to clean up from the N.C. Department of Human Resources Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Branch after an inspection of the plant Oct. 28. "We sent a four-man crew out and took soil and ground water samples," said Chuck McLendon, public affairs spokesman for DHR. The compliance order came as a result of that inspection." Attorneys for the company are reviewing the order to determine what their next step will be, said Brent McGinnis, spokesman for Ashland Chemical Co. Line flush, a mixture of industrial chemicals and solvents used by Ashland, was found spilled at their distribution plant at 1415 S. Bloodworth St., Raleigh, according to the order. Also, there has been evidence of a tetrachloroethene spill on the ground and in Walnut Creek, where the toxic industrial degreasing solvent was diluted to 1.63 parts per billion. "It is not at a danger point," said Don Follman, director of public affairs at NCRD. "The rain of the past week has probably diluted it even further." There have been no health problems for the public or Ashland employees. Follman said, "By our standards, it has never been a health risk." According to McGinnis, state agencies first became interested in Ashland in May. "A quantity of toluene (almost 7,000 gallons) was found missing one Monday morning. We immediately contacted the authorities and reported it stolen." Ashland had long been the target of burglaries, especially toluene, a toxic that can be used as a drug inhalant. In May, "there was no evidence at that time a spill had occurred," McGinnis said. In fact, two inspections by the DHR and NRCD's Environmental Management Division gave the Ashland plant good marks for its management in July. "The representatives could find no evidence of a spill and determined the materials had been stolen, but they continued the investigation hoping to improve the security of the plant," McGinnis said. "Eventually the case was closed. "Then in September a former Ashland employee, who was fired for mismanagement of corporate finances, went to the police and said there was a spill in May, and that we were involved in a cover up," he said. As a result, police and state agency investigators were brought in. , Ashland only had permits for 224 of the 280 55-gallon waste drums it had been using. Continued violations of the compliance order could cost Ashland $10,000 a day if the penalties are founded.

"I think that the people of this state want a new kind of leadership, a leader with fresh ideas, with a different way of looking at things. UI am independent free of political baggage, participant in the ideological wars that have done so much to damage the image of North Carolina," he added. The UNC graduate said he decided to run because North Carolina's inter ests were not being adequately repres ented in Congress. uMy goal as a senator will be to provide the kind of leadership that will guarantee North Carolina's voice is heard when decisions are made in Washington," Blount said in the release. "My full energies will be devoted to seeing that North Carolina gets full return on its investment in this Union." Blount said he has already named a press agent, campaign manager and the campaign advisory board of Matt Reese and Associates. He said he would not engage in any negative strategies against his opponents and described himself as a moderate. "This will be a high-level campaign with dignity for all those involved," he . said in a telephone interview Monday. "In our past elections, a number of controversies have centered around who is the most liberal and who is the most conservative. North Carolinians have been caught in the crossfire of those kinds of acts." Blount said he was primarily con cerned with the problems of the budget deficit, agriculture, unemployment and the environment. "Those are the things, obviously, that are a big concern to North Carolina," he said. Blount received his law degree from Wake Forest University and was admitted to the North Carolina Bar in 1966. At 30, he became the youngest Special Superior Court Judge in 1970. Blount said he left the bench in 1973 because the job caused him to be away from his family too much. "I recognize the values we all cherish family life, friendship . . . and a concern for our neighbors," he said. "These are the kinds of values which will create a framework for my campaign." Founder of biostatistics department dies Bernard G. Greenberg, former dean of the School of Public Health, died Sunday. He was 66. He joined the UNC faculty in 1949 as the first full-time faculty member in biostatistics. He became dean of the School fcPubHcHeafth in 1972' and retired from the UNC-f acuity in July. Greenberg was recognized worldwide for his research and work in the measurement of health and disease, and he was the founder and first chairman of the department of biostatistics in the School of Public Health. Survivors include his wife, Ruth M. Greenberg; two sons, Raymond F. 'Greenberg'ef Atlantand-Staiiky M. mother, Lillian Kadanski of New York, N.Y.; and two grandchildren.
