Tooele Army Depot Revised Final Site-Wide Ecological Risk Assessment. Volume I.

Abstract

This revised final report presents the results of the site-wide ecological risk assessment (SWERA) at the Tooele Army Depot TEAD). This SWERA addresses 56 Solid Waste Management Units (SWMUs) regulated under the Federal Facilities Agreement, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). TEAD is a National Priorities List site under CERCLA and is under a corrective action permit issued by the State of Utah. The need to perform a SWERA was identified based on the conclusions and recommendations in various TEAD reports, and in order to maintain regulatory compliance under CERCLA and the National Contingency Plan. The purpose of this SWERA report is to characterize and evaluate the TEAD ecosystem in order to determine whether site contamination is causing, or has the potential to cause, adverse effects to the local ecology. This document consists of the SWERA report (volume I) and all of the supporting data (volumes II, Ill, and IV).
