Envirenmental Baseline Survey, Water Wells Annex, Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada
Abstract
This environmental baseline survey (EBS) has been prepared to document the environmental condition of real property at the Nellis Air Force Base (AFB) Water Wells Annex, Nevada, resulting from the storage, release, and disposal of hazardous substances and petroleum products and their derivatives over the installation's history. Preparation of an EBS is required by Department of Defense (DOD) policy before any property can be sold, leased, transferred, or acquired. Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 32-70, Environmental Quality, provides responsibilities and procedures for conducting an EBS and is implemented through Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-7066, Environmental Baseline Surveys in Real Estate Transactions. The EBS will also be used by the Air Force to comply with the provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) 42 U.S. Code (U.S.C.) Section 9620{h){3) when property is being transferred by a federal agency. This EBS aids in establishing present property conditions that would be utilized in making decisions supporting the transfer by deed of the Water Wells Annex land to a private contractor.
