Pursuant to authorization obtained by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act [42 United States Code (U.S.C.) 6901, et seq., commonly known as RCRA] and the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA), this permit is issued under the provisions of Section 403.722, Florida Statutes (F.S.) and Chapters 62-4, 62-160, 62-730, 62-777 and 62-780, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). This permit replaces expired permit 0001676-005-HO.

The RCRA- regulated units are specifically described as follows: Eglin AFB and other Department of Defense units in the region generate hazardous waste explosives and military munitions that are no longer suitable for service. The safest method of handling these items is treatment at Eglin AFB. Eglin AFB will open burn and open detonate waste military explosives on Ranges C-62 and C-52 North (N). The open burn units are specially-designed burn kettles with a detachable fuel source. The individual burn kettle is designed for thermally treating reactives or propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics (PEP-type) wastes. It is a vented, steel box with a removable lid that has been designed to contain metal fragments plus much of the solid combustion residues. The PEP-loaded burn kettles are placed onto the retracted carbottom of the Transportable Burn Kettle Processor (TBKP) and then the loaded carbottom is moved back into the TBKP’s thermal processing chamber. The chamber More Protection, Less Process” www.dep.state.fl.us Page 1 of 54 PERMITTEE: I.D. NUMBER: FL8 570 024 366 Eglin Air Force Base PERMIT/CERTIFICATION NUMBER: 0006176-006-HO 501 DeLeon Street, Suite 101 EXPIRATION DATE: September 1, 2015 Eglin Air Force Base, Florida door is closed and the insulated processing chamber is then heated up until the burn kettle(s) are approximately 1000°F. This temperature will ensure that all PEP waste inside the burn kettles has been thoroughly destroyed. This operation occurs on Range C-62 however Range C-52N is an alternate location. Open Detonation (OD) operations occur at locations on Range C-52N and Range C-62 directly on the ground surface. Craters formed by previous OD operations are used for OD events. Soon after the OD unit can be safely approached following completion of a detonation (generally within one hour of the detonation), the OD unit is inspected for any items, which remain after detonation. Negligible energetic material is detonated immediately. Large metallic items not containing energetic materials are transported to the TBKP for burning and then offered for recycle/resale. The Permittee is required to investigate any releases of contaminants to the environment at the facility regardless of the time at which waste was placed in a unit and to take appropriate corrective action for any such releases. Solid waste management units (SWMUs) and areas of concern (AOCs) identified to date are listed in Appendix A. Pursuant to 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 260.10 [as adopted by reference in Rule 62-730.020(1), F.A.C.], the corrective action requirements of this RCRA permit extend to all contiguous property under the control of the Permittee (see Attachment A, a map which demarks the property boundaries of land under the Permittee’s control) and to all contamination that originated from discharges at the contiguous property under control of the Permittee. This permit is based on the premise that information and reports submitted by the Permittee prior to issuance of this permit are accurate. Any inaccuracies found in this information or information submitted as required by this permit may be grounds for termination or modification of this permit in accordance with Rule 62-730.290, F.A.C and potential enforcement action The facility is located at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida.

The simulator achieved a new plateau of nuclear effects simulation, able to test complete weapons electronics packages critical for both strategic and tactical nuclear weapons design. During the first half of its life, the Aurora Simulator primarily served military agencies and contractors in testing the warheads of intercontinental ballistic missiles [ICBMs]; during the second half of its life, the facility expanded its technical capabilities to test the hardening of very large finished systems, such as those for satellites. Project Information: During 1995-1996, the Aurora Simulator is being disassembled inside its reinforced- concrete infrastructure. Removal of three- quarters of the capacitors in the Marx tank occurred in early 19 95, with shipment to Arnold AFB, Tennessee, for reuse in the simulator Decade.
