Preliminary Assessment, Army Reserve Center, Pewaukee, Wisconsin

Abstract

The Army Reserve Center Pewaukee has been in operation since 1960. The facility is currently occupied by the 961st Engineering Battalion, a unit from the 86th Army ARCOM. Its mission is construction and approximately 145 people are assigned to the unit. Routine maintenance of vehicles associated with the construction is performed on-site. Major repairs, repainting of vehicles, and refueling and washing of vehicles are performed off-site. Records indicate that the potential sources of contamination include two heating oil USTs, which have subsequently been removed; one 400-gallon mobile storage tank and five 55- gallon drums containing waste oil, solvents, and water; and a paint storage room. Based on the information determined from the investigation it is concluded that there have been no releases to the groundwater, surface waters, soil or air from the site. Due to the low volume of wastes generated at the site and the control measures taken to prevent spills, potential contamination to groundwater, surface water, soil and air pathways from the site is low.
