Disposal of chemical agents and munitions stored at Anniston Army Depot, Anniston, Alabama: Final Phase 1 environmental report

Technical Report · Sat Jul 01 04:00:00 EDT 1989

OSTI ID:5872786

The purpose of this Phase I report is to examine the proposed implementation of on-site disposal at Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) in light of more detailed and more recent data than those included in the Final Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (FPEIS). Two principal issues are addressed: (1) whether or not the new data would result in identification of on-site disposal at ANAD as the environmentally preferred alternative (using the same selection method and data analysis tools as in the FPEIS), and (2) whether or not the new data indicate the presence of significant environmental resources that could be affected by on-site disposal at ANAD. In addition, status reports are presented on maturity of the disposal technology (and how it could affect on-site disposal at ANAD) and on the tracking of changes in technology to ensure that the overall risk identified in the FPEIS is not exceeded. 6 refs., 11 figs., 10 tabs.
