81 Hazardous Sites

Below are the locations of hazardous sites associated with this military installation, according to the DOD. A site’s contamination may affect a much larger area, including public and private lands and the water supplies beneath them.

High Risk

Medium Risk

Low Risk

Risk Not Evaluated or Not Required

Response Complete

We haven't independently confirmed the location of every site. If you notice a site placed at the incorrect location, please contact us.

Not all sites in the DOD data include location information, so there may be sites listed below that are missing from the map. The risk level of a site refers to a relative risk assessment made by the DOD to prioritize the cleanup of sites.

Land Controls & Restrictions

Many sites have been declared “clean” by the DOD but are still not safe for people. This military installation is safe only with the following conditions in place: local use ordinances, fences, dig permits. see more » fences signs dig permits local use ordinances notations in master plan landfill restriction - prohibit activities that would impact the landfill cap (or cover system) and drainage system prohibit human consumption of groundwater prohibit installation of drinking water well landfill restriction - prohibit excavation on landfill cap or cover system landfill restriction - prohibit installation of utility system lines through the site landfill restriction - restrict access to the site landfill restriction - restrict construction of buildings that may interfere with landfill cap or cover system landfill restriction - restrict plantings that interfere landfill cap or cover system (roots that penetrate the cap or cover system) landfill restriction - restrict vehicular traffic prohibit residential use « see less

15 Active Sites

Sites where military cleanup actions are still ongoing. The risk level of a site refers to a relative risk assessment made by the DOD, which prioritizes the cleanup of sites that pose greatest threat to safety, human health, and the environment.

Contaminated Areas

Groundwater: High Risk

There is soil and ground-water contamination present at the site. The site is open at this time but has the potential to become a TEMF.

Contaminants: 1,2-Dichloroethane (EDC) 25.0 ug/L Ethyl benzene 59.0 ug/L Benzene 270.0 ug/L Naphthalene 420.0 ug/L

Soil: Medium Risk

Sampling has confirmed the presence of contamination in the soil and ground water. The site is an open area at this time but has the potential to become a TEMF.

Contaminants: Benzene 0.91 mg/kg Naphthalene 13.0 mg/kg Ethyl benzene 59.0 mg/kg

Contaminated Areas

Soil: Medium Risk

Soil is impacted with solvent, metals, & SVOCs. Contaminant movement is limited due to grass cover & little disturbance as this is an ordnance disposal range. Receptors to have limited access to contaminated soil. Area is off-limits to personnel except current demolition & range workers. The site is accessed & occupied for brief periods of time for disposal or limited training.

Contaminants: Tetrachloroethylene 0.6 mg/kg Perchlorate 0.8 mg/kg Beryllium and compounds 1.6 mg/kg N-Nitrosodiphenylamine 1.7 mg/kg 2,6-Dinitrotoluene 2.8 mg/kg 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane 3.2 mg/kg Arsenic 9.2 mg/kg Cadmium and compounds 16.8 mg/kg Dibutyl Phthalate 29.0 mg/kg 2,4-Dinitrotoluene 37.0 mg/kg Chromium 51.4 mg/kg Trichloroethylene (TCE) 181.0 mg/kg Copper and compounds 207.0 mg/kg Lead 231.0 mg/kg

Groundwater: Low Risk

The data demonstrate some potential for migration. The ephemeral stream has minor hits as had seeps but there are limited periods of flow in the stream or in the seeps. Ground water has TCE greater than the MCL of 5 ug/L and TCA above risk-based standards, but is not a source of drinking water. There is a limited potential for human exposure.

Contaminants: Benzo(a)Pyrene 0.76 ug/L Naphthalene 2.5 ug/L Bis(2-Ethylhexyl)Phthalate 24.0 ug/L 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane 45.0 ug/L Trichloroethylene (TCE) 260.0 ug/L

Sediment (Human): Low Risk

Low potential for contaminant migration to a potential point of exposure. Limited for receptors to have access to sediment.

Contaminants: Selenium 0.87 mg/kg Beryllium and compounds 1.5 mg/kg Cadmium and compounds 1.5 mg/kg Arsenic 7.7 mg/kg Lead 28.1 mg/kg Copper and compounds 35.4 mg/kg Chromium 40.0 mg/kg Zinc 66.4 mg/kg

Surface Water (Human): Low Risk

Potential for contaminant migration from the source but only limited evidence of migration to an ephemeral stream with minimal potential for impact.. There is extremely limited access to the site and thus, receptor exposure potential is very limited.

Contaminants: Benzo(a)Pyrene 1.1 ug/L Bis(2-Ethylhexyl)Phthalate 1.3 ug/L Tetrachloroethylene 1.8 ug/L 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane 16.0 ug/L Trichloroethylene (TCE) 91.0 ug/L

Contaminated Areas

Soil: Low Risk

Based on limited surface soil sampling, elevated levels of metals exist in surface soils. A portion of the site (in use circa WWI) has been eroded by a former meandering river channel. The area is currently wooded and the ground is covered by a layer of While the site is close to a main roadway, it is separated from the road by railroad tracks. The site is close to the tracks,in a wooded area, and might be visited only very intermittently by hunters and wildlife watchers. A thick vegetative cover also

Update (Dec. 5, 2017): We have changed the source of the installation cost data after being notified by the Department of Defense that they erroneously reported their own cost figures on the DERP website. We are now displaying the costs the department says are the most accurate available, from the Pentagon’s DERP database that we received in a FOIA request.

Note: The risk level of a site refers to a relative risk assessment made by the DOD to prioritize the cleanup of sites.

Data: All data comes from the Defense Environmental Restoration Program and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and will be released soon at the ProPublica Data Store. Read our methodology »
