By definition, this site consists solely of soil; basewide groundwater is addressed as a separate operable unit. The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act Information System identification (CERCLIS ID) number for the WNY is DC9170024310. 1.2 Statement of Basis and Purpose This ROD presents the basis for determining that further remedial action is not necessary for Site 10 at the WNY. The determination has been made in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), and, to the extent practicable, the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). In accordance with Section 113(k) of CERCLA, this decision is based on the Administrative Record file for the WNY. The United States Department of the Navy (Navy) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region III jointly issue this ROD. The District of Columbia Department of the Environment (DDOE) concurs with the selected remedy (see Appendix A). Public comments that were received during the public meeting and 30-day comment period on the Proposed Plan for this site are discussed in Section 3, “Responsiveness Summary.” 1.3 Description of the Selected Remedy No further CERCLA remedial action is the selected remedy for the soil at Site 10. The no­ further-action remedy selection is based on the remedial investigations (including the baseline human health and ecological risk assessment), the subsequent non-time-critical removal action (NTCRA) of over 2,000 cubic yards of soil, and the results of 313 confirmatory soil samples. No further action under CERCLA is necessary to protect human health, welfare, or the environment from actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances into the environment from the soil at Site 10. Because this remedy will not result in hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants remaining on-site above levels that allow for unlimited use and unrestricted

    ARCHA4348_002_2016_3zeynep.alexander@daniels.utoronto.ca - QUES IN ARCH HIST I Jump to Today Questions in Architectural History 1 Faculty: Zeynep Çelik Alexander, Reinhold Martin, Mabel O. Wilson Teaching Fellows: Oskar Arnorsson, Benedict Clouette, Eva Schreiner Thurs 11am-1pm Fall 2016 This two-semester introductory course is organized around selected questions and problems that have, over the course of the past two centuries, helped to define architecture’s modernity. The course treats the history of architectural modernity as a contested, geographically and culturally uncertain category, for which periodization is both necessary and contingent. The fall semester begins with the apotheosis of the European Enlightenment and the early phases of the industrial revolution in the late eighteenth century. From there, it proceeds in a rough chronology through the “long” nineteenth century. Developments in Europe and North America are situated in relation to worldwide processes including trade, imperialism, nationalism, and industrialization. Sequentially, the course considers specific questions and problems that form around differences that are also connections, antitheses that are also interdependencies, and conflicts that are also alliances. The resulting tensions animated architectural discourse and practice throughout the period, and continue to shape our present. Each week, objects, ideas, and events will move in and out of the European and North American frame, with a strong emphasis on relational thinking and contextualization. This includes a historical, relational understanding of architecture itself. Although the Western tradition had recognized diverse building practices as “architecture” for some time, an understanding of architecture as an academic discipline and as a profession, which still prevails today, was only institutionalized in the European nineteenth century.

    Delegated Action of the Executive Director PROJECT NCPC FILE NUMBER Relocation of Historic Watchbox 7628 Washington Navy Yard Washington, DC NCPC MAP FILE NUMBER 41.11(61.10)44048 SUBMITTED BY ACTION TAKEN United States Department of the Navy Preliminary and final approval of site and building plans REVIEW AUTHORITY Approval per 40 U.S.C. § 8722(b)(1) and (d) The Navy has submitted preliminary and final site and building plans for the relocation of a historic watchbox from Naval Support Facility Indian Head, Maryland to the Washington Navy Yard. The project is mitigation for the adverse effect caused by the demolition of Piers 3 and 4 at the Washington Navy Yard. Piers 3 and 4 are contributing elements to the Washington Navy Yard Central Yard National Historic Landmark. As such, their demolition constitutes an adverse effect on historic properties. Under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the Navy entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the District of Columbia State Historic Preservation Officer and Maryland Historical Trust to mitigate the adverse effect. The mitigation defined in the MOA was to relocate a historic watchbox from Naval Support Facility Indian Head, Maryland to the Washington Navy Yard. The watchbox was constructed ca. 1853-1854 at the Washington Navy Yard. It stood just inside the Latrobe Gate (8th and M Streets SE) and functioned as a sentry post manned by Marines assigned to the Washington Navy Yard. In approximately 1905, the building was moved to the Naval Proving Ground at Indian Head. The watchbox has been at three locations at Indian Head and has served as a foreman’s office, telephone switchboard office, and storage building.

  • Defence Disposals in the UK Contrasted with Sustainable Redevelopment in Four US East Coast Navy Yards
    Defence Sites 243 Learning from experience: defence disposals in the UK contrasted with sustainable redevelopment in four US east coast navy yards C. M. Clark Wessex Institute of Technology, UK Abstract Modern war is now conducted remotely – via unmanned military drones, robots and chemical weapons; troops can be moved into battle rapidly from advanced positions. These developments in attack and defence technology render many facilities in fixed positions – navy bases, garrisons, forts, airbases, training grounds – increasingly redundant. Many governments are disposing of these surplus defence sites, some of them historic, but the processes and the outcomes vary enormously from country to country. In the UK large swathes of defence land are earmarked for sale in the near future; the Ministry of Defence is under increasing pressure to rationalise its holdings and save public money. The United States Government is considering selling off many more of its publicly owned assets in the face of prolonged recession. Although the closure of military sites is happening all over the world, transfers of learning from the accumulating experience of post-defence reconstruction, both within and between countries has at best been sporadic. This conference is one of the first to examine the complex and particular challenges to land reuse thrown up by reductions in defence budgets. Planned disposals offer a unique opportunity to provide long-term benefits to local communities whose economies are affected by losses of defence related employment, but they do not always result in such outcomes. Examples of good practice in this paper are drawn from post defence experience in navy bases on the east coast of America, complementing the paper on Brooklyn Navy Yard.
