Identification and Ranking of Emerging Contaminants Important to Department of Defense Operational Ranges

Abstract

a. Survey representative operational test and training ranges and create a database of potential sources of emerging contaminants including munitions, propellants, pyrotechnics, fuels, lubricants, coolants, herbicides, pesticides, and other relevant materials (past, current, and future use). b. To compare that data base to lists of emerging contaminants for exact matches and relevant chemical families. c. To establish a process which will provide range managers with situational awareness of these emerging contaminants. d. To establish a process to inform all concerned of new products and ingredients (e.g., CL-20) which will be transitioning into munitions.
