Installation Restoration Program. Phase 1. Records Search, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma

Abstract

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act created the requirement for the Air Force to assess the environmental quality of Air Force installations with regard to past use, storage treatment and disposal of toxic and hazardous materials and to define any conditions that may adversely affect health or result in environmental degradation. The USAF Installation Restoration Program (IRP) implements Defense Environmental Quality Program Policy Memorandum (DEQPPM) 81-5 DoD Installation Restoration Program. The extent of probable contamination at Air Force Installations is determined by a detailed analysis of records, including a history of operations, the geological and hydrological conditions which may contribute to migration of pollutants, and a search of ecological files for evidence of environmental effects resulting from contamination. This is Phase 1 of the Installation Restoration Program. Engineering-Science of Atlanta, GA completed this Phase I Records Survey at Tinker Air Force Base, November 16-20, 1981. The results of this investigation are contained in the subject report.
