Installation Restoration Program. Phase II. Confirmation/Qualification Stage 1 for England AFB, Louisiana.
Abstract
The Department of Defense (DOD) has developed the Installation Restoration Program (IRP) to identify, report and correct potential environmental deficiencies from past waste management activities that could result in ground-water contamination and probable migration of contaminants beyond DOD installation boundaries. The IRP is a four-phase program consisting of: Phase I, Problem Identification/Records Search, Phase II, Problem Confirmation and Quantification, Phase III, Technology Development, and Phase IV, Corrective Action. The Phase I study for England AFB, Alexandria, Louisiana has been completed and reported. Presented in that report are descriptions of the installation and its environmental setting, a review of industrial operations and base support activities conducted at the base, an inventory of major solid and hazardous wastes from past activities, a review of past waste handling, treatment and disposal facilities, and an evaluation of the pollution potential of each identified site. For Phase II Stage 1 soils and ground water were investigated at selected waste disposal sites on england AFB.
