Document Description
Emergency Permit for the treatment / chemical stabilization of potentially instable chemical material stored at Baskin Robbins. The material in question is an item identified in a recent lab pack at Baskin Robbins, which is housed in the research laboratory of Baskin Robbins at 1201 S Victory st in the city of Burbank. Because of the extremely reactive nature of this material, stabilization must occur before the material can be transported for offsite disposal. The material will be stored in a hazardous waste storage cabinet until stabilization can occur.
