Preliminary Assessment Report for U.S. Army Reserve Center, Manitowoc, Wisconsin

Abstract

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) was conducted at the U.S. Army Reserve Center, Manitowoc, Wisconsin (MARC) to evaluate site conditions and the potential for hazardous materials migration and contamination exposure to surrounding environs. To accomplish this task, records were reviewed, an on-site inspection was conducted, and interviews were conducted with Present and past personnel at the MARC and with local and state regulatory personnel. No sampling activities were conducted, but past sampling records were reviewed. The operations at MARC require the handling of some hazardous materials/hazardous wastes (HM/Hw). Past HM/HW handling practices resulted in a contaminated dry well which was cleaned up in 1992. Results of the two Site Investigations indicate that the trichloroethylene (TCE) which has been found in a nearby public water supply well is not emanating from the MARC site. No other past or present operations at the MARC appear likely to pose a threat to public health and welfare or the environment. It is therefore recommended that the U.S. Army take the necessary steps for site closeout of the MARC from the IRP.
