Report on Selected Ordnance Removal Projects

Abstract

Huntsville Division has been involved since 1989 in a swiftly growing ordnance and explosive waste (OEW) remedial action program. These actions fall under the purview of the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP), Base Realignment and Closure, and Superfund. Many small actions have taken place with very little fanfare, while some of the larger projects receive at times daily attention in the news media. This report will address highlights and some unique aspects of five OEW cleanup projects USAEDH has conducted over the last several years: McCoy Air Force Base, Duck Navy Target Facility, Buckroe Beach, Camp Elliott, and Fort Sill.
