Ford Building Waste Site: Environmental information document
The Ford Building Waste Site is located north of the Ford Building in the Central Shops Area of the Savannah River Plant (SRP). Evidence indicates that work with potential for radioactive contamination was performed in the area and that the protective clothing worn by the personnel was disposed of at the site. The closure options considered for the Ford Building Waste Site are waste removal and closure, no waste removal and closure, and no action. No human health risk calculations were performed for this site because no materials disposed at the site were identified as presenting a health or environmental risk. A cost analysis, proposed for each closure option, shows that the removal of surface soils from the Ford Building Waste Site and disposal in a waste storage/disposal facility is more expensive than site maintenance and monitoring under the other two options. 16 refs., 12 figs., 10 tabs.
