Remedial Investigation Report. Volume 6. Southern Study Area, Final, Version 3.3

Abstract

The Southern Study Area (SSA) report integrates the study area history, geology, and hydrology with the results of soil, surface water, ground water, air, biota, and structures investigations to define the nature and extent of contamination in the southern portion of RMA. The SSA includes all of sections 11 and 12 and portions of sections 1, 2, 3, and 7. Historic reports indicate that the SSA was not used for the production of agents or pesticides, but was a disposal area and buffer zone. 904 soil samples were analyzed as were surface water samples and ground water samples from numerous wells. Organochlorine pesticides and HG are the most commonly detected contaminants. The volume of potentially contaminated soil is estimated at 1.51 million cubic yards. This report is presented in three sections: characterization of the study area - geology, hydrology, climate history
