Superfund Record of Decision (EPA Region 10): Bangor Ordnance Disposal (USN Submarine Base), Bangor, WA. (First remedial action), December 1991. Final report
The Site A of a Bangor Ordnance Disposal site at the U.S. Naval Submarine Base Bangor (SUBASE), Kitsap County, Washington, consisted of a 6-acre burn area, debris areas, and a storm water discharge area surrounded by undeveloped forest and limited residential areas. When the Navy used the site to detonate and incinerate various ordnance materials from 1962 to 1975, the site consisted of burn mounds, an incinerator for ammunition and a blast pit for TNT detonation. Sediments from an ordnance waste water disposal lagoon were disposed of the burned on site through 1972. The Record of Decision addressed the contaminated soil and ground water at Site A. The primary contaminants included PCBs, phthalates, explosive compounds (TNT, DNT, and RDX) and lead.
