OSTI ID:339510
Langley Air Force Base (Langley AFB) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Langley Research Center (NASA LaRC) are located adjacent to each other on a small coastal basin of the Back River, a tidal estuary of the Chesapeake Bay. The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) visited the sites in 1994 and 1997. During the 1994 visit, several potential public health concerns were raised. (1) the potential for contaminants to migrate to fish and shellfish (which might be ingested by local residents) in the adjoining estuary, (2) surface soil contamination at a former playground at Langley AFB Site OT-06, (3) surface soil contamination and physical hazards at Langley AFB Sites OT-25 and FT-41, where children or youths might trespass, (4) the use of Langley AFB Site LF-12 for storing fill material, and (5) lead-contaminated soil in the housing areas at Langley AFB. ATSDR made recommendations for several of these sites. During the 1997 visit, ATSDR identified one additional potential concern at NASA LaRC Site 4, an open storage site where surface soil has not been characterized.
