Information obtained from the records search, environmental setting review, the hydrogeological evaluation and interviews with base military and civilian personnel, etc. was used to identify and evaluate sites having potential for migration of contaminants. A list of the potential contamination sources identified at Wheeler Air Force Base and a summary of HARM scores for those sites are provided. 2. Seven sites were identified as having been contaminated by hazardous materials at Wheeler AFB. The HARM site rating indicates the relative potential for environmental impact at each site and is used as a guideline for making recommendations on follow-up Phase II programs.
