At Wheelabrator Baltimore, “safe” isanything but a four-letter word.

Employees at the waste-to-energy planttake workplace safety extremely seriously,and their commitment in that area hasearned them membership in an elite club.

In May 2007, Wheelabrator Baltimoreofficially received the highest safety honorawarded by the U.S. Dept. of Labor’sOccupational Safety and HealthAdministration (OSHA). WheelabratorBaltimore was designated a Star worksitein OSHA’s Voluntary Protection Program(VPP), an honor shared by less than

In 18 years working for Wheelabrator, Christopher Leyen hastraveled from his native New York to Pennsylvania to Florida,before landing in Baltimore as plant manager five years ago. Basedon the performance of the plant since he arrived, he seems to havefound a home.

“I was brought on to improve plant operation and reliability,”Leyen said of his current position. “Everything has been goingwell.”

Indeed. Wheelabrator Baltimore is a smooth operation, with 67employees working to process 2,250 tons of waste daily andconvert it into clean, renewable energy. Last year, the plant earnedthe highest safety designation – VPP Star – awarded by OSHA.

“All the employees worked very hard to attain VPP Star status,”Leyen said. “They achieved a level of excellence that is very rarein this country.”

Leyen grew up in New Windsor, N.Y., a town of 9,000 locatedon the Hudson River, just north of the U.S. Military Academy atWest Point. He majored in civil and environmental engineering atClarkson University. His first job was as a plant engineer atWheelabrator Westchester in Peekskill, N.Y., where he workedseven years.

From Westchester, Leyen worked as a regional engineer inPennsylvania, before spending four years at the WheelabratorNorth Broward plant in Pompano Beach, Fla. as maintenancemanager and operations manager. He became plant manager atWheelabrator Baltimore in 2003.

“Wheelabrator is a good company to work for,” Leyen said.“There are opportunities to advance throughout the company.”

Leyen and his wife, Kim, have three children: Bryanna (10),Tristan (9) and Aidan (9).

Christopher Leyen has been working for Wheelabrator Technologies Inc. for 18 years.

Caring for the community

BY PAUL HALLORAN

The South Baltimore Learning Centerrelies on private funding for half of its $1.2million annual budget. That’s a significantamount to raise, so it is important to have along list of loyal benefactors. According toSBLC Executive Director Sonia Socha,Wheelabrator Baltimore is at the top of thatlist.

“We would not be here today if not forthe beginning of our partnership withWheelabrator,” Socha said, harkening backto Wheelabrator’s original $5,000 donation15 years ago that allowed the strugglingSBLC to pay the rent and other bills. “Weneeded money to keep the place going.”

Today, the SBLC is not only still going,it is thriving. Located in a beautifullyrestored former police station on EastOstend Street, the community-based non-profit provides basic education andcomputer training to more than 800 adults,the vast majority of whom are workingtoward getting a high school diploma. TheSBLC offers pre-GED and GED prepclasses, as well as an External DiplomaProgram, an alternative to the GED forearning a high school diploma.

In addition to the education courses, theSBLC offers computer classes and servesas a de-facto community technology center,according to Socha. It also provides careercounseling and helps people find jobs.

“We are proud of our long associationwith the South Baltimore Learning Center,”said Wheelabrator Baltimore PlantManager Christopher Leyen. “The SBLCprovides critical services to people whoneed it most. We are happy to help in anyway we can.”

According to Socha, Wheelabrator’ssupport goes well beyond monetaryassistance. “When we were moving (backinto the renovated building in 2003),Wheelabrator provided a truck andmanpower,” she said. “They helped usclean out the fourth floor. They did thingswe didn’t have the capacity to do.

“It has never been just about the moneywith Wheelabrator,” Socha added. “That’swhat makes our relationship so special.”

During the mid-1980s, a group of 13 Wheelabratoremployees witnessed the birth of a new form ofrenewable energy production in Baltimore. Today, those13 remain committed to a company that has provided anessential public service since it opened more than twodecades ago.

“One of the truly unique things about Wheelabrator ishow strongly our employees identify with thiscompany,” said Mark Weidman, president ofWheelabrator Technologies, Inc. “That they are part ofthe company goes without saying, but what is unique isthat this company is also a part of them.”

Thomas Lipka, one of the Wheelabrator Baltimore

employees with at least 20 years of service, launched hisWheelabrator career in 1985, just as operations inBaltimore commenced. Lipka, a maintenance planner,entered the company as a first-class mechanic andwelder.

“I was young – 24 years old – looking for steady workwhen this plant opened,” said Lipka. “I went on tobecome lead mechanic and maintenance planner. I’vedone just about everything here, even filling in withpurchasing and as the plant engineer. In that respect, I’mkind of the go-to guy.”

Born and raised in Baltimore, Lipka is a 1980 graduateof Baltimore Polytechnic Institute. “I went there for thesports, but once I started learning about engineering, itwas interesting, especially the mechanics,” he said.

A self-described sports fanatic, Lipka coaches inlocal youth baseball and football leagues, as well as

a recreational basketball team. He first became involvedcoaching his oldest son and has remained active in allthree arenas.

“I’m still a kid at heart,” he said. “Football’s my love,but I’ll try anything – even jet skiing or wakeboarding.I’m never sitting down.”

Looking back at the earliest days at the plant, Lipkacommends the company for its improvements withregards to safety.

“Safety procedures have turned around 180 degrees,”said Lipka. “When I first started 20 years ago, we didn’thave to wear hard hats or steel-toe shoes or safetyglasses. That’s been the biggest change – implementingsafe job procedures.”

Ron Rose, crane operator and ash handler, agrees.“During the early start-up days, the regulations weren’t

as strict,” said Rose. “Now, we have programs likeVPP and Safety on Purpose, making us

more aware of the industrial aspect of it.”

Rose, born and raised inBaltimore and a graduate of

Mergenthaler Vocational-TechnicalHigh, began working for

Wheelabrator as a laborer in1988. He cites mobility

as one of the company’sstrengths.

“It’s always been acompany that’soffered theopportunity to go inany direction,” saidRose. “I’ve moved

around to differentpositions, learning new

aspects of the plant.”Harry (Bill) Rectanus,

originally hired as alaborer in 1984, waspromoted to plantoperator this year.

“If you have thewillingness to work andlearn, you can make itanywhere,” said Rectanus.

Originally fromPennsylvania, Rectanusserved as president of thevolunteer fire departmentin his hometown. BothBaltimore and theconcept of Wheelabrator

were new to him in 1984, but itwas a chance he’s glad he took.Today, he admits some of theearly struggles have made thecompany stronger and smarter.In 1989, he was able to bringhis expertise to Wheelabrator’splant in Gloucester County, NJ,where he was stationed forthree months during its start-up.

Chuck Reynolds, whostarted in 1987 as a third-classmaintenance mechanic, has also experienced a fast-pacedcareer track. He moved from third-class mechanic tosecond-class to first-class, before he was promoted tolead mechanic. He attributes employee longevity partlyto the decisions and priorities of company leaders.

“The way it’s managed today, it’s even more towardsthe people than the production,” said Reynolds. “Theway management treats its employees, looking out forsafety and making sure everyone goes home in the samecondition they came in, that’s impressive.”

Crane operator Andre Smith, a Baltimore Countyresident and a 1981 graduate of Woodlawn High School,was working in construction and food service beforefinding his niche at the plant. He admits the idea ofwaste-to-energy was surprising to him.

“It was all new to this area,” said Smith, who wasworking for the construction company that built the plantbefore joining the ranks of the Wheelabrator start-upcrew in 1984.

Walt Sweet, also a crane operator, knew little about theindustry as well.

“I didn’t know that people’s trash could be made intoenergy,” said Sweet. “I didn’t realize you could build abusiness on waste. That was shocking.”

Sweet, who was hired in 1988, notes that changes insafety and operations have made a world of difference inhis day-to-day work routine.

“There have been a lot of modifications to make thesystem better,” said Sweet.

A lifelong Baltimore resident, Sweet is a 1969graduate of Frederick Douglass Senior High School. Heis a season-ticket holder for his beloved BaltimoreRavens. In looking down the road to retirement, Sweetwill miss the people he has come to know so well, butanticipates passing on his knowledge to the nextgeneration of employees.

Other employees with at least 20 years of service (andthe year they started) include: Michael Shepherd (1984),Donald Kowalewski (1984), Victor Johnson (1984),James Blankenship (1985), Robert Venuto (1985), JohnGarrett (1986) and Frank Onorato (1988).

Federal Hill students shine at Wheelabrator Symposium

Energizing Baltimore for23 years and counting

three-hundredths of a percent of the nation’sworksites.

“The VPP Star distinction means thatemployees of our facility voluntarily achieved alevel of safety excellence rare in this country,”said Wheelabrator Baltimore Plant ManagerChristopher Leyen. “Many hours of hard workwent into preparing for the OSHA evaluation andall of our employees share in the honor.”

Of the seven million worksites monitored byOSHA, Wheelabrator Baltimore is one of onlyapproximately 2,000 to receive VPP Star status, adesignation it also earned from the MarylandOccupational Safety and Health (MOSH). It wasthe first VPP Star site in Baltimore City.

Created in 1982, VPP recognizes and promoteseffective workplace safety and healthmanagement. Companies in the program achieveaverage injury rates 50 percent lower than othercompanies in their industry.

Requirements for application to VPP include ahigh degree of management support andemployee involvement; a high-quality worksitehazard analysis; prevention and controlprograms; and comprehensive safety and health

training for all employees. A team of OSHAinspectors, accompanied by industrial hygienists,spend a week touring the worksite and observingthe programs and procedures in place.

To prepare for the inspection, WheelabratorBaltimore committed itself to accountability, theidentification and elimination of hazards and theactive involvement of employees in their ownprotection.

“It was a big process getting everybody onboard,” said Len Hadley, Wheelabrator Baltimoreshift supervisor, who was chair of the SafetyCommittee during the VPP certification process.“Once everybody started to see improvements,they bought in.”

Hadley, who noted the plant has gone morethan 280 days without a lost-worktime injury,said every employee has a role to play inenhancing the safety culture to the point of VPPStar status. “Everybody here has the right to stopa job if they think it is unsafe,” he said.

In 2001, Wheelabrator set a goal to have all 21of its energy facilities certified by OSHA as VPPStar workplaces. The company reached that goallast year, an achievement only nine othercompanies in the U.S. have reached.

“Wheelabrator’s energy supply is atrue asset to the community, providingboth electricity and steam,” said GeraldAntrobus, director of construction forWheelabrator Technologies, whoserved as senior project manager forthe building of Wheelabrator’s firstwaste-to-energy plant, in Saugus,Mass. “This is unique to Baltimore, butit’s helped the city out a lot. As theprice of oil goes up, alternate sourcesof energy become more and more indemand.”

The Baltimore plant was the third tobe built by Wheelabrator, followingsuccessful launches in Saugus andWestchester County, NY.

Antrobus, who has been with thecompany since 1974, describes theBaltimore plant as the sister plant to theWestchester facility. Both can processup to 2,250 tons of municipal waste perday and can generate more than 60,000kilowatts of electrical energy per hour.

“It was a smooth start-up because wehad just finished the Westchesterproject, and we had the operatingexperience from Saugus,” he said. “Wecontinued to gain more insight witheach one.”

Wheelabrator’s presence in theBaltimore community developed out ofneed. The city attempted to rely upon apyrolysis plant for its trash disposal. Itwas one of three sites in the countryauthorized as a pilot, but theexperimental technology ultimatelyfailed and closed in 1979. At thatpoint, the Baltimore area jurisdictionsformed a regional authority to developa new plan for solid waste disposal.The Northeast Maryland WasteDisposal Authority negotiated withWheelabrator to build a plant, utilizingthe proven mass-burn resourcerecovery system.

The process the plant uses is simple.Incoming trucks deliver trash to anenclosed reception area and deposit itinto a concrete receiving pit. Overheadcranes then transfer the trash intoboilers, where temperatures exceed2,500 degrees in order for combustionto occur. Air to feed the combustion isdrawn from the receiving building,sustaining a negative pressure andpreventing odors or dust fromescaping. Power boilers recoverenergy released during the combustionprocess, in the form of high-pressuresteam, and a turbine generator convertsthe steam into electrical energy.

The facility successfully reduces thevolume of incoming waste byapproximately 90 percent. It alsorecovers ferrous and non-ferrous metalsfrom the ash residue, which are thenshipped off-site to be recycled. The ashis then used by the City of Baltimorefor daily cover at its Quarantine Roadlandfill.

According to Antrobus, one of theplant’s strengths is its location. BecauseBaltimore’s streets are so narrow,smaller garbage trucks are needed, thusnecessitating more frequent trips backand forth between drop-offs.Wheelabrator’s site, in the heart ofdowntown, is easily accessible for thetrucks, allowing them to use less gasand diesel fuel.

Today, Wheelabrator operates 16waste-to-energy facilities and fiveindependent power production facilitiesin 10 states. Wheelabrator has beensuccessful in developing progressivepublic and private partnerships;integrating source reduction, recyclingand landfill options; introducing newenergy and environmentaltechnologies; and demonstratingoperating procedures that have setindustry standards for efficiency andregulatory compliance.

traveled to Sunrise, Fla., for the two-day symposiumevent sponsored by Wheelabrator. Each school sent ateam of 10 students to present their projects, usingcomputer graphics and visuals, in front of a VIP panel ofeducators, elected officials and community volunteers.

Applying lessons learned in the classroom to real-lifeissues, the students showed tremendous insight and poise.“Their presentations reflected the amount of work theyput into their projects in the months leading up to thesymposium,” said Sapienza.

The students worked on their project three days a weekduring the beginning of the school day. WheelabratorBaltimore Operations Manager Jim Robertson worked

with team members and teachers Jeff Byerly and ColleenCampion throughout the project.

Wheelabrator honored Baltimore students with theCreativity Award at a recognition dinner held at theconclusion of the symposium presentations. They alsoreceived a $1,000 donation for the school, as well as giftsfor the students and teachers who participated.

In addition to the positive experiences the students takeaway from the symposium, when they begin applying forcollege every student who has participated in thesymposium can be considered for a four-year scholarshipto attend Fisk University in Nashville, Tenn. This is aresult of a partnership established between Wheelabratorand Fisk when the symposium began in 1996. To qualify,students must meet certain criteria and be reviewed by aselection committee.

Wheelabrator plays key role in reducing CO2 emissions

Not stuck in neutral

BY PAUL HALLORAN

In an age when global warming has gained international attention andscrutiny, there has been a concerted effort to reduce emissions of carbondioxide and other greenhouse gases which are believed to contribute to aworldwide change in climate.

“Carbon neutral” refers to a net of zero carbon release into the atmosphere,which is brought about by balancing theamount of carbon released with the creationof a commensurate amount of carbonemissions reduced or avoided.

Waste-to-energy technology, such as thatemployed by Wheelabrator Baltimore, hasproven to be even better than carbon neutral.Here is how waste-to-energy is playing akey role in the fight against global warming:The trash that is burned by waste-to-energyfacilities is comprised primarily of biomassorganic material — i.e. food, wood andpaper. The combustion of that type of material counts as zero carbonemissions.

Trash that is sent to waste-to-energy plants also includes plastics, textilesand other materials made from petroleum. They create carbon dioxide whenburned, but only a small percentage of waste-to-energy’s direct emissions fallinto that category.

Waste-to-energy plants such as Wheelabrator Baltimore help avoid releaseof greenhouse gas emissions in three ways. First, waste-to-energy plantsgenerate electricity by using the heat from the combustion of the trash tocreate steam in high-efficiency boilers. The steam in turn powers electricgenerators. Producing electricity with trash avoids the greenhouse gasemissions associated with conventional electric power plants, which typicallyburn coal or oil.

Second, the trash that is converted into energy in a waste-to-energy plant,having already been subjected to recycling by households and businesses,would either go to a waste-to-energy plant or landfill. Waste that is placed in alandfill decomposes over time, creating methane gas, which is 23 times aspotent a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Even well controlled landfillsthat collect the gas and use it to create electricity are not able to collect 100percent of the methane. This uncaptured methane, however small a quantity,would be released as a greenhouse gas emission.

Finally, waste-to-energy plants also avoid greenhouse gas emissions byrecovering ferrous metals, such as iron and steel, from ash residue left aftercombustion of the trash. These metals are sent off to recycling facilities.Making new iron and steel from that recycled material results in less carbondioxide emissions.

The net effect of waste-to-energy technology when it comes to carbondioxide emissions is that for every ton of municipal solid waste that isconverted into electricity at a waste-to-energy plant, approximately one ton ofcarbon dioxide is avoided or offset. That figure was arrived at by researchersat universities and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Using this rule of thumb, in 2007, Wheelabrator Baltimore was responsiblefor more than 650,000 tons of carbon dioxide being avoided. Company-wide,Wheelabrator-operated waste-to-energy plants were responsible for more thanseven million tons of carbon dioxide being avoided.

According to the EPA, industry wide, waste-to-energy plants annuallyprevent the release of more than 30 million tons of greenhouse gases such ascarbon dioxide.

The U.S. Conference of Mayors supports a seven percent reduction ingreenhouse gases from 1990 levels by 2012 and recognizes waste-to-energytechnology as a means to achieve that goal. Also, the Global Roundtable onClimate Change has identified waste-to-energy as a means to reduce carbondioxide emissions as well as methane emissions from landfills.

Being even better than “carbon neutral” is another example of howWheelabrator and waste-to-energy are helping to protect the environment.

According to the EPA,of all the solid waste

management options,waste-to-energy does the most to

reduce greenhouse gas releases into the atmosphere.

Knowledgeis power.

We can relate. Wheelabrator Baltimore is proud

of our 15-year association with the South Baltimore Learning Center,

which provides critical services to more than 800 Baltimore residents.

Federal Hill students win award for creativity at Wheelabrator Environmental Symposium

BY MEAGHAN CASEY

Students at the Federal Hill PreparatorySchool in Baltimore set out to makeBaltimore a cleaner place — and they did itwith the environment in mind.

In preparing a project to present at theWheelabrator Symposium for Environmentand Education, the students in grades 6-8set out to create a community-wideawareness program to help protect localwaterways and storm drains. The studentsultimately created an organic liquid soapthat has minimal impact on theenvironment.

The symposium, held annually in May,challenges middle school students to

participate in a six-month learningproject to identify an

environmental challenge intheir community anddevelop a long-term

solution. The goal is to foster environmentaland social awareness in the youth.

“The symposium has been held for 14years, and every year the students continueto amaze me,” said Linda Sapienza, directorof community relations for WheelabratorTechnologies. “Sponsoring and coordinatingthe symposium is all part of Wheelabrator’sphilosophy of giving something back to ourcommunities. It’s really wonderful to seethe enthusiasm and dedication thesestudents bring to the event year after year.”

The students from Federal HillPreparatory School labeled storm drainsnear the school in order to increaseawareness of what was going into the drainsand thus ending up in Chesapeake Bay.With that in mind, they created a soap thatwould have minimal impact on the watersof the bay.
