The methodology utilized in the GAFB records search began in September, 1984 with a review of past and current industrial operations conducted at the base. Information was obtained from available records, such as shop files and real property files, as well as interviews with past and current base employees from various operating areas. The next step in the activity review was to determine the past management practices regarding the use, storage, treatment, and disposal of hazardous materials from the various operations on the base. A ground tour of the identified sites was then made by the ESE Project Team to gather site-specific information. A decision was then made, based on all of the above information, regarding the potential for hazardous materials contamination at any of the identified sites.

The areas found to have sufficient potential to create environmental contamination are: Evaporation pit/waste storage tank; North diversion ditch; Fire protection training area nos. 1 and 2; and Landfill/POL sludge disposal area no. 2. The areas judged to have minimal potential to create environmental contamination are: South diversion ditch and POL sludge disposal area no. 1.
This report was prepared to aid in implementing the Air Force Restoration Program at Reese AFB. It is DoD policy to identify and fully evaluate suspected problems associated with past hazardous waste management practices on DoD facilities and to control the migration of hazardous constituents from such facilities that could endanger health and welfare. Major findings include: (1) Since 1941, many hazardous and potentially hazardous wastes have been generated by industrial shop operations at Reese AFB. (2) Fire training exercises have provided a means of disposal of waste Avgas, oils and lubricants, and miscellaneous combustible materials since at least the 1950's. and (3) Landfills and land spreading areas have been used for waste disposal since the base was constructed. Most of the materials disposed have been construction and domestic wastes, although some hazardous wastes were reportedly landfilled in the past. Review of the comprehensive data base assembled for this study resulted in identification of 36 sites of potential contamination at Reese AFB. Ten of these 36 preliminary sites were ranked using the Hazard Assessment Rating Methodology (HARM) based on their potential for migration of hazardous constituents.
Presented in this report are introductory background information on the Installation Restoration Program, a description of the Kelly AFB setting, a review of industrial and research and development activities at Kelly AFB, an inventory of major solid and hazardous waste from past activities, a review of past waste handling, treatment and disposal facilities and an evaluation of the pollution potential of each identified site.
The search of USAF, state and federal agency records and interviews with past and present base personnel and agency representatives was conducted to identify past hazardous waste generation and disposal practices at Vandenberg AFB, California. The AFB is located on the south central California coast, approximately 140 miles northwest of Los Angeles, 275 miles south of San Francisco, and 55 miles northwest of Santa Barbara. Eighteen sites were identified as having the potential for environmental contamination and have been evaluated using the HARM system. Follow-on recommendations include site clean-up and closure, confirmation studies in the vicinity of past spill sites, and enhanced protection of local surface waters.
