Consolidated Site (CS) 024 Verification Survey at Former McClellan AFB, Sacramento, California

Abstract

At the request of the U.S. Air Force Radioisotope Committee Secretariat (RICS), the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine, Consultative Services Division (USAFSAM/OEC), Radiation Health Consulting Branch performed an independent radiological verification survey of the CS 024 hazardous waste site, located on former McClellan AFB, California, on 29-31 July 2014. USAFSAM/OEC surveyed the CS 024 site to measure residual surface activity and determine if radiation levels complied with criteria agreed upon between representatives of the State of California and the U.S. Air Force for unrestricted release. Radium-226 was the sole radionuclide of concern. Cabrera Services, Inc., under contract with URS Corporation, performed a Final Status Survey (FSS) and all radiological fieldwork previously in July 2014. This letter details the findings of this visit and will assist the RICS with evaluating the contractor s FSS report of this site.
