Therefore, the concern that training with live munitions potentially generates undesirable residual constituents is of interest. The objective of this study is to develop techniques for assessing the potential for environmental contamination from energetic materials on testing and training ranges. The project defines the physical and chemical properties, concentrations, and distribution of residues in soils, and the potential for transport of these residues to groundwater. Surface soils associated with impact craters, targets areas, and firing points were characterized on 18 military installations in the United States and Canada. Residues from high-order, low-order, unconfined charge, and blow-in-place detonations were collected on witness plates, snow, and/or tarps for constituent analyses. Results of these analyses were used to characterize residue composition and spatial distribution in relationship to the types of training activities conducted. Results also contributed to development of surface soil sampling strategies for live-fire ranges. Transport parameters of contaminants of potential concern for which data are lacking were determined by leveraging this project with other funding sources. The characteristics of constituent residues on training ranges, both chemical composition and aerial distribution, vary with the type of range activity and the specific munitions fired. Residues tend to be localized in highly distributed point sources in the vicinity of targets and fixed firing positions. Characterizing these sites requires careful consideration of soil sampling strategies based on site activities and will typically include multi-increment composite sampling. Special care must be taken in laboratory subsampling since residues occur as solid particles of various sizes that are highly heterogeneously dispersed in the soil. For the types of ranges studied, e.g., heavy artillery and hand grenade ranges, RDX is a significant contaminant of concern. TNT, which is typically restricted to surface soil, poses less threat to groundwater than RDX. At firing points, propellant residues can be significant. High-order detonations, which constitute most of the explosions executed during training, generate undetectable to barely detectable, diffuse surface residuals; however, low-order detonations, the incidences of which are much lower than high-order detonations and which tend to be munitions-specific, are a potentially significant source of residues. Another issue with potential to generate significant residues is clearance of unexploded ordnance by blowing in place. Rendering safe does not always result in complete consumption of explosive charge. Therefore, care must be exercised to achieve complete detonations with secondary changes that do not contribute munitions constituents, especially RDX, to the soil. Results of fate and transport studies indicate that initial release of energetics from compositions, such as Composition B, into soils tends to be locally very high, approaching temperature-dependent aqueous phase saturation, even though the compositions dissolve more slowly than the solubilities of the individual components would suggest. Furthermore, soil adsorption from solution phase, which is governed to some extent by soil properties, will not significantly limit transport. Therefore, RDX is readily transportable to groundwater. TNT transforms readily to mono-amino products, the transport of which is limited by covalent bonding of these transformation products to soils components. Results of this study provide a technical basis for development of range-specific soil characterization approaches. Results also provide process descriptors for fate and transport of constituent residues and for assessing the exposure component of environmental risk assessments. The relationships emerging between various training activities and constituent residues provide a sound scientific basis for development of management practices for sustainment of training range activities while maintaining environmental stewardship.

  • GROUNDS for PERMANENT WAR Land Appropriation, Exceptional
    GROUNDS FOR PERMANENT WAR Land Appropriation, Exceptional Powers, and the Mid-Century Militarization of Western North American Environments by Brandon C. Davis A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) May 2017 © Brandon C. Davis, 2017 ABSTRACT Few areas across globe have escaped the pressures of militarization. Despite the many significant developments and repercussions tied to the military control of vast areas of national territories, the complex intersections between militarization and the environment have only recently attracted scholarly attention. This dissertation argues that the contemporary condition of global permanent war and ongoing state of emergency are rooted in the military control of land and other natural resources. During the mid-twentieth century buildup of North American defense forces, the practice of military land appropriation not only legitimized and expanded certain types of unilateral, emergency powers but also produced secret and legally permissive spaces in which the exercise of such extraordinary powers and related military land use practices could be more freely conducted. A major impetus driving these mid-century land use developments was the rise of unconventional weapons of mass destruction. Not only did such weapons technologies destabilize the global political order but they also brought about a multitude of disruptions at local sites. By investigating the establishment and operations of two of the world’s largest, most secretive, and longest-lasting chemical and biological weapons proving grounds—the U.S. Army’s Dugway Proving Ground in western Utah and the Canadian-and U.K.-controlled Suffield Experimental Station in southeastern Alberta—this study reveals how the imperatives of permanent war have had critical influence in shaping the workings of power between local citizens, government, and the environment in western North America.

Date of Construction: Established in 1942. Owner: Department of the Army Significance: Yuma Proving Ground was established during World War II by the Corps of Engineers for the testing of a new floating bridge. In 1951, the facility shifted in emphasis to become a testing center for many types of Army equipment, from tanks to water purification units, Historical Report Prepared by: William Brenner, 1984 Prepared for Transmittal by: Robie S. Lange, HABS/HAER, 1985. Yuma Proving Grounds HAER No. A2-5 page 5, EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Yuma Proving Ground, part of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command, occupies 838,174 acres in southwestern Arizona. The installation conducts artillery, aircraft, and desert mobility tests, as well as various environmental tests. It contains a highly instrumented multipurpose aircraft armament testing range, vehicular test courses, amphibious testing areas, and a large gunnery range. The origins of the proving ground date from 1942, when the land it now occupies was included in Maneuver Area B of General George S. Patton's Desert Training Center, renamed the California-Arizona Maneuver Area in 1943. One of the training center's six temporary division tent camps, Camp Laguna, was located on the site of the present Mobility Test Area. In early 1943, the Army Corps of Engineers began testing a new floating bridge on the Colorado River below Imperial Dam, several miles northwest of Camp Laguna.
