How to transport, store and dispose of the large amount of chemicals confiscated from these operations has developed into a problem of some magnitude. Presently, these chemicals are transported by the Fire Department in the bed of a common pickup truck to the Police Vehicle Impoundment Unit. Chemicals are stored at this location in plastic five gallon buckets, on the ground. Several instances of leakage and theft by fence cutting have occurred. No provision s• exist for final disposal of these chemicals, which must be considered hazardous waste after they are no longer held as evidence or confiscated .property. The city of Fort Worth must provide for the safe transport, storage, and lawful disposal of these described chemicals. At present, the Fire Department has no equipment designed for the safe transportation of chemicals. A specially equipped one-ton truck with goose neck hookup, and a 24 foot specially fabricated trailer should be purchased for such transportation, for a total `cost of $39,385.00. The City should purchase a pre-fabricated building, designed for the storage of chemicals. This building should be located at the Police Vehicle Impoundment Unit which offers twenty-four hour security. The cost, including setup, for this building is $29,755.
