This plan contains a description of the personnel and procedures for managing the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) at the U.S. Army Jefferson Proving Ground (WG) in Madison, Indiana. The RI/FS is being performed to support base closure initiated in April of 1989, when Congress mandated that JPG be closed and its mission realigned with Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona. As a result, the U.S. Army Environmental Center (USAEC) was given the responsibility of conducting the environmental investigation associated with the Base Closure Program. An enhanced Preliminary Assessment (PA) was completed in March 1990, and a follow-up Master Environmental Plan (MEP) was prepared in November 1990. Results of these initial evaluations indicated that additional studies of identified Solid Waste Management Units (SWMUs) and areas requiring environmental evaluation (AREEs) were needed to satisfy the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA 1986). This act requires that a RI/FS be conducted to: 1. Define the extent and magnitude of environmental contamination at JPG; 2 Assess the human health and environmental risk from contamination at JPG; 3. Determine the needs for remedial actions at JPG; and 4. Develop and evaluate the remedial-action alternatives.
Spearhead of Logistics is a narrative branch history of the U.S. Army's Transportation Corps, first published in 1994 for transportation personnel and reprinted in 2001 for the larger Army community. The Quartermaster Department coordinated transportation support for the Army until World War I revealed the need for a dedicated corps of specialists. The newly established Transportation Corps, however, lasted for only a few years. Its significant utility for coordinating military transportation became again transparent during World War II, and it was resurrected in mid-1942 to meet the unparalleled logistical demands of fighting in distant theaters. Finally becoming a permanent branch in 1950, the Transportation Corps continued to demonstrate its capability of rapidly supporting U.S. Army operations in global theaters over the next fifty years. With useful lessons of high-quality support that validate the necessity of adequate transportation in a viable national defense posture, it is an important resource for those now involved in military transportation and movement for ongoing expeditionary operations. This text should be useful to both officers and noncommissioned officers who can take examples from the past and apply the successful principles to future operations, thus ensuring a continuing legacy of Transportation excellence within Army operations. Additionally, military science students and military historians may be interested in this volume.
