Contaminated Areas

Groundwater: High Risk

There are at least two layers of groundwater, shallow overburden and deep bedrock. GW feeds seeps on site, and GW is used to the south and west of the site for potable supply. Seep water may be contacted by NASA personnel and grounds keepers. Five miles downgradient from PBOW is the city of Milan, having its potable water potentially impacted by PBOW

Contaminants: Lead 459.0 ug/L 2,6-Dinitrotoluene 550.0 ug/L Chromium 561.0 ug/L 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene 680.0 ug/L Arsenic 1780.0 ug/L 1,3-Dinitrobenzene 4800.0 ug/L 2,4-Dinitrophenol 5900.0 ug/L 2,4-Dinitrotoluene 9200.0 ug/L Manganese and compounds 55100.0 ug/L Aluminum 280000.0 ug/L Iron 679000.0 ug/L

Surface Water (Fresh): Medium Risk

PRR has a drainage ditch that runs between PRR and Pentolite Road and definitely runs off-site. The eastern portion of WAR is an approximate 5 foot deep pond. There are endangered plants and special concern terrestrial receptors confirmed. Fish and crawfish have been detected in both WAR and PRR.

Contaminants: Lead 77.0 ug/L

Sediment (Fresh): Low Risk

Sediment from WAR is most likely not migrating. Sediment from the drainage ditch that runs between PRR and Pentolite Road has potential to migrate, but no significant level of nitroaromatics have been detected in this water system. Potential wildlife receptors such as fish (known to exist in both WAR and PRR) and benthic organisms.

Contaminants: Chromium 28.7 mg/kg Lead 32.1 mg/kg Manganese 726.0 mg/kg

Sediment (Human): Low Risk

PRR ponds have been filled in. The Western WAR pond sediment exhibits virtually no TNT product, and is confined to the pond. Sediment from Pipe Creek and Plum Brook may migrate off-site. Potentially hunters.

Contaminants: 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene 0.8 mg/kg Chromium 28.7 mg/kg Lead 32.1 mg/kg Manganese and compounds 726.0 mg/kg

Soil: Low Risk

PRR is mostly a wetland-esque area, and not normally traversed by humans. WAR has some exposed soil areas and may be considered the point of contact. The areas are open to hunters and on occassion, NASA employees may be out in either WAR or PRR for groundskeeping.

Contaminants: 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT) 0.27 mg/kg 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene 1.7 mg/kg Arsenic 22.0 mg/kg 2,4-Dinitrotoluene 204.0 mg/kg Manganese and compounds 1340.0 mg/kg Aluminum 20600.0 mg/kg Iron 36000.0 mg/kg

Surface Water (Human): Low Risk

PRR ponds have been filled in, and half of the WAR pond had been drained in 1977 by NASA and partially filled, and the other half of WAR is approximately a 5 foot deep pond. There is now a depression on the PRR that does pool water (witha red tint) durin The area is open to hunters during hunting season.

Groundwater: Medium Risk

Groundwater in WWTP1, WWTP3 and associated sewerlines are centrally located in the PBOW fenced site, and there is no direct use of GW in these area. It is not clear if GW is migrating from the site to the north for WWTP1, and to the north and west for WW There are no current groundwater users at WWTP1 or WWTP3 or associated sewerlines. It is unclear if GW from these sites have migrated off-site to the north of WWTP1 and to the north and west of WWTP3. Down gradient boundary wells have detected low level Army related chemicals, there are 6 know private resident GW wells downgradiant from PBOW, and Lake Erie which is the public water supply and recreation water body.

Contaminated Areas

Groundwater: Medium Risk

A facility wide GW flow pattern is generally to the north and northeast towards Sandusky, OH and Lake Erie, and appears to be applicable to Acid Areas 1 and 3. At Acid Area 2 there is westerly groundwater "swirl" with site related chemicals detected off-s There are at least 6 off-site residential wells down gradient from PBOW, and these well may potentially be used for irrigation of crops.

Contaminants: 2,6-Dinitrotoluene 1.7 ug/L 2,4-Dinitrotoluene 2.5 ug/L 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT) 2.7 ug/L Lead 26.3 ug/L

Soil: Medium Risk

Acid Area 1 is surrounded by areas that are used by NASA, their contractors, so the soil is at point of potential exposure. Acid Area 2 is the most west AOC of PBOW and is a confined exposure because it is overgrown and mostly no one goes there except fo NASA personnel and contractors work in the surrounding area of Acid Area 1, and occasionally has grounds keeping of Acid Area 1 with a potential for human contact with Acid Area 1. Acid Area 2 is not maintained, and it does not appear that people go to this area most of the year. Acid Area 2 is part of an area where hunters may go during a limited period time, so the recept factor here is limited. Acid Area 3 is an open maintained grassy area at a major PBOW intersection of Maintenance Rd and Ransom Rd and near the K-Site, and there is low to potential exposure to the groundskeeper and other NASA employees and contractors.

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 »
