Installation Restoration Program Technical Support Document for Record of Decision, Cape Lisburne LRRS Site

Abstract

The Cape Lisburne AFS is located on a peninsula north of Kotzebue Sound on the Chukchi Sea, Alaska. The area is surrounded by steep, rocky terrain supporting an alpine tundra. This record of decision and supplemental support document applies to six potential hazardous waste sites identified at Cape Lisburne, AK. The recommendations for all six sites are the same; therefore, a single document for the entire installation is warranted. The findings and decisions on the Cape Lisburne AFS presented in this report are based on the following: 1987 site visit by personnel of Woodward-Clyde Consultants and the U. S. Air Force; Comprehensive literature search and review; Information gathered from governmental regulatory agencies and a review of active environmental permits issued by state and federal agencies. The following permit has been issued for one site identified during Phase I: Certificate of Consistency issued for demolition of White Alice Site (Site 6); Review of the physical, chemical and toxicological characteristics of suspected or known contaminants; Preliminary Assessment Form submitted by EPA.
