Health assessment for Tinker Air Force Base NPL (National Priorities List) Site, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, Region 6. CERCLIS No. OK1571724391. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5225193
The Tinker Air Force Base (AFB) National Priorities List site is located under and adjacent to Building 3001 in the northeast portion of the base. Past operations and disposal practices have resulted in the contamination of the subsurface soil, ground water, and sediment in Soldier Creek. The two contaminants in the highest concentration at the site are chromium and trichloroethylene. Four potable-water-supply wells at the base have been contaminated. Additional potable-water-supply wells for Tinker AFB could become contaminated if the ground water contaminant plume is allowed to migrate further. The sediment contamination in Soldier Creek requires further investigation and possible remediation. The levels of contaminants of concern warrant continued monitoring and eventual remediation.
