Supplemental Proceedings for the Environmental Quality R and D Symposium (13th Annual) Working Towards a Better Environment - A Progress Report, Held in Williamsburg, Virginia on 15-17 November 1988

Abstract

This symposium is a significant means of technology exchange of the Army's R and D program. It is designed to facilitate developer/user interface by joint participation. This annual event involves key personnel from all pertinent Federal agencies and provides a forum where users are given the opportunity to benefit from the perspectives of senior DOD leadership. This report provides supplemental proceedings from the symposium. The Synthetic Organic Chemicals Survey (SOCS) of all Army drinking water wells is being conducted by the U.S. Army Environmental Hygiene Agency (USAEHA) to supplement existing U.S. Army Toxic and Hazardous Materials Agency (THAMA) ground water quality data and detect potential drinking water quality problems. This proactive survey, using state of the art analytical methodologies, is providing baseline data for many uses. Data obtained from the survey to date have confirmed reports of contamination from past activities and shown that additional contamination sites may exist.
