    U.S. Army, Fort Dix CA725 Page 1 DOCUMENTATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL INDICATOR DETERMINATION RCRA Corrective Action Environmental Indicator (EI) RCRIS Code (CA725) Current Human Exposures Under Control Facility Name: U.S. Army, Fort Dix Facility Address: Regional Directorate of Public Works, Fort Dix, New Jersey 08640 Facility EPA ID#: NJ4213720275 Definition of Environmental Indicators (for the RCRA Corrective Action) Environmental Indicators (EIs) are measures being used by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Corrective Action program to go beyond programmatic activity measures (e.g., reports received and approved) to track changes in the quality of the environment. The two EIs developed to date indicate the quality of the environment in relation to current human exposures to contamination and the migration of contaminated groundwater. An EI for non-human (ecological) receptors is intended to be developed in the future. Definition of “Current Human Exposures Under Control” EI A positive “Current Human Exposures Under Control” EI determination (“YE” status code) indicates that there are no unacceptable human exposures to “contamination” (i.e., contaminants in concentrations in excess of appropriate risk-based levels) that can be reasonably expected under current land- and groundwater-use conditions (for all contamination subject to RCRA corrective action at or from the identified facility [i.e., site-wide]). Relationship of EI to Final Remedies While final remedies remain the long-term objectives of the RCRA Corrective Action program, the EIs are near-term objectives, which are currently being used as program measures for the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA). The “Current Human Exposures Under Control” EI is for reasonably expected human exposures under current land- and groundwater-use conditions ONLY, and does not consider potential future land- or groundwater-use conditions or ecological receptors.

The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies. Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency which provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning for the orderly growth and development of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties as well as the City of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer counties in New Jersey. The Commission is an advisory agency which divides its planning and service functions among the Office of the Executive Director, the Office of Public Affairs, and three line Divisions: Transportation Planning, Regional Planning and Administration. DVRPC's mission for the 1990s is to emphasize technical assistance and services and to conduct high priority studies for member state and local governments, while determining and meeting the needs of the private sector. The DVRPC logo is adapted from the official seal of the Commission and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River flowing through it.

Abstract (Limit: 200 wordslThis report presents chemical-quality data collected from May 1980 to January 1981 at several locations within the Delaware River estuary and selected New Jersey tributaries. Samples of surface water were analyzed for Environmental Protection Agency "priority pollutants," including acid extractable, base/neutral extractable and volatile organic compounds, 1n addition to selected dissolved inorganic constituents. Surficial bed material at selected locations was examined for trace metals, insecticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and base/neutral extractable organ1c compounds. Trace levels (1-50 micr&grams per liter) of purgeable organic compounds, particularly those associated with the occurrence of hydrocarbons, were found in about 60 percent of the water samples taken. DDT, DDD, DDE, PCB's and chlordane are present in most surficial bed material samples.

  • Summary of Findings
    Summary of Findings The Interagency Waterway Infrastructure Improvement Task Force met in open session a total of seven times. In addition, there were many meetings held involving various committees. The Task Force Staff met often with individuals and dam owners, and groups representing local, county, state and federal agencies. Presentations were made to the public in the impacted areas that outlined various programs and assistance available for dam restoration. These meetings were held in an informal manner, and many issues were discussed. It must be noted that this Task Force had minimal funding and resources, no subpoena power, and no legal authority to compel witnesses to testify under oath. The Task Force assigned committees to study several issues in an effort to understand the effects of the storm, which occurred on July 12-15, 2004, and the failures of several dams, and the subsequent floods that resulted. These issues are identified in the Table of Contents which follows. • The result of committee studies, Task Force meetings, and staff input are reported as follows: 1. The storm of July 12-15, 2004, was, beyond a reasonable doubt, a 1000-year storm. 2. Several of the dams along the Rancocas waterway did not meet current construction standards. 3. There were no Emergency Action Plans for many of the impacted dams. 4. The Dam Safety Bureau (NJDEP) has inadequate enforcement powers to insure compliance with its rules and regulations. 5. There was no working alarm system to alert the residents along waterways of potential flooding. 6. Local, county, and state emergency workers, both professional and volunteer, did an outstanding job to protect life and property.
