Installation Restoration Program, Phase II - Confirmation/Quantification Stage 1 for Travis Air Force Base, California

Abstract

A Phase II, Stage I Field investigation and evaluation was conducted. Twelve sites of potential environmental concern, grouped into six waste management zones, were evaluated. A total of 34 monitoring wells were installed and groundwater samples were obtained from each well. Soil samples were obtained for chemical analyses from 13 borings. Samples of storm sewer waters, surface water and bottom sediments were obtained. All chemical analyses were accomplished in accordance with standard USEPA analytical methods. Based on the sampling and analyses performed, levels of contamination were found in soils, sediments, surface water or groundwater at all 12 sites. Based on these findings, follow-up investigations have been recommended for further groundwater study, either through continued monitoring of existing wells or through expansion of the monitoring network, at all 12 sites.
