Hazardous Waste Characterization Survey, Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri

Abstract

At the request of the Whiteman AFB Bioenvironmental Engineering Services, the Armstrong Laboratory Occupational and Environmental Health Directorate, Bioenvironmental Engineering Division (AL/OEB) conducted a Baseline Hazardous Waste Characterization Survey at Whiteman AFB on 31 Mar - 3 Apr 92. The scope of this survey was to characterize all active hazardous waste streams. The survey team confirmed with 351 CES/DEV and 351 Med Group/SGPB the identified list of potential waste streams to be characterized, and collected representative samples of the 23 active waste streams identified by the base. Recommendations include: (1) commence collection of the waste paint booth filters, and (2) verify the type of wood preservative(s) contained in the waste munition crates stored at Combat Arms Shop (351 SPG/SPC).
