Installation Restoration Program. Phase I. Records Search, Hazardous Materials Disposal Sites, Griffiss AFB, New York.

Abstract

The identification of hazardous waste disposal sites at military installations was directed by Defense Environmental Quality Program Policy Memorandum 80-6. Phase I constitutes a records search to determine the potential, if any, for migration of toxic and hazardous materials off the installation as a result of past operations and disposal activities. The Griffiss AFB records search included a detailed review of pertinent installation records, contacts with various government and private agencies for documents relative to the search, and onsite visits. No direct evidence of off-base pollution migration was found. However, several sites were listed as potential contamination areas. It has been recommened that these areas receive additional attention to determine if pollution migration exists.
