1.0 INTRODUCTION

The former Fort Ord (Fort Ord) is located near Monterey Bay in northwestern Monterey County, California. Since 1917 until base closure in 1994, portions of the Fort Ord property were used by infantry units for maneuvers, target ranges, and other purposes. Military munitions such as artillery and mortar projectiles, rockets, and guided missiles; rifle and hand grenades; land mines; pyrotechnics; bombs; and demolition materials, were fired into, fired upon, or used on the facility.

As part of the comprehensive environmental investigation of the former Fort Ord under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), several literature reviews and associated field investigations were conducted. During this process, the Army has responded to documentation or site-specific discoveries related to the potential presence of chemical warfare material (CWM). The purpose of this technical memorandum is to describe the circumstances surrounding each of these events and subsequent actions taken to resolve them. The comprehensive environmental investigations have not found any evidence of presence or use of chemical weapons at Fort Ord.

Information from various document reviews and literature searches indicate no ordnance-related CWM were stored or used at Fort Ord. Chemical agents were used at Fort Ord in the form of Chemical Agent Identification Sets (CAISs) (Army, 1993), which were used to train soldiers to recognize and protect themselves from chemical agents. These CAISs contained dilute solutions of chemical agents in small (one-ounce), hermetically sealed glass containers. Information regarding discovery and disposition of CAISs at Fort Ord are presented in Sections 2.1 and 2.6.

The investigations documented in this report show that, other than the CAISs mentioned above, no CWM or non-stockpile chemical material (NSCM), have been found on the Fort Ord. Non-Stockpile Chemical Materiel Program, Survey and Analysis Report, produced by the Army in 1993, and updated in 1996, only references the use of CAISs at Fort Ord. Non-stockpile CWM is defined as “chemical warfare material that’s not part of the chemical weapons stockpile.” This is better defined by the definition from the U.S. Army Chemical Materials Agency, Public Affairs Office (AMSCM-PA), APG, MD 20101-524 as follows: “When the United States ratified the Chemical Weapons Convention on April 29, 1997, it agreed to destroy all its chemical weapons and chemical weapons material. The U.S. divided this mission into two categories – stockpile and non-stockpile. Stockpile encompasses the declared unitary stockpiles of chemical weapons. Non-stockpile materiel includes the rest of the mission, to destroy items that are

not part of the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile, including binary chemical weapons, former chemical warfare production facilities, miscellaneous CWM, and treaty declarable recovered CWM. Miscellaneous CWM includes; chemical samples, and Category 3 materials (materials/equipment specific to chemical weapons but not contaminated with actual agent).”

Terms presented in this document are consistent with currently accepted terminology and Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) guidance. However, older terms are also included when presenting quotes and references. For clarification purposes, some of the terms used in this document are explained below (Department of Defense [DoD] Manual 6055.09-M, Volume 8, Administratively Reissued August 4, 2010):

• Chemical Warfare Material (CWM). Items generally configured as a munition containing a chemical compound that is intended to kill, seriously injure, or incapacitate a person through its physiological effects. CWM includes V- and G-series nerve agents or H-series (mustard) and L-series (lewisite) blister agents in other-than-munition configurations; and certain industrial chemicals (e.g., hydrogen cyanide (AC), cyanogen chloride (CK), or carbonyl dichloride (called or [CG]) configured as a military munition. Due to their hazards, prevalence, and military-unique application, chemical agent (CA) identification sets are also considered CWM. CWM does not include: riot control devices; chemical defoliants and herbicides; industrial chemicals (e.g., AC, CK, or CG) not configured as a munition; smoke and other obscuration producing items; flame and incendiary producing items; or soil, water, debris or other media contaminated with low concentrations of chemical agents where no CA hazards exist.

• Munitions and Explosives of Concern (MEC; previously called ordnance and explosives [OE]). A term distinguishing specific categories of military munitions that may pose unique explosives safety risks: Unexploded ordnance (UXO), as defined in section 101(e)(5) of Reference (e). Discarded military munitions (DMM), as defined in section 2710(e)(2) of Reference (e); or munitions consituent (e.g., trinitrotoluene [TNT], cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine [RDX]), as defined in section 2710(e)(3) of Reference (e), present in high enough concentrations to pose an explosive hazard. • Munitions Response Area (MRA). Any area on a defense site that is known or suspected to contain UXO, DMM, or MEC. Examples include former ranges and munitions burial areas.

A munitions response area is comprised of one or more munitions response sites. A discrete location within an MRA that is known to require a munitions response.

• Munitions Response Site (MRS; formerly called an OE site) - A discrete location within a munitions response area that is known to require a munitions response.

1.1 Background

Environmental investigation began at the former Fort Ord in the mid-1980's. Fort Ord was placed on the National Priorities List of Superfund sites in 1990 due to evidence of contaminated soil and groundwater. In 1991, the Basewide Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) for soil and groundwater contamination began. Since 1991 when Fort Ord was selected for base realignment and closure (BRAC), and its official closure in September 1994, site visits, historic and archival investigations, MEC sampling, and removal actions have been performed and documented in preparation for the transfer and reuse of Fort Ord property.

In November 1998, the Army agreed to evaluate MEC at Fort Ord in a RI/FS under the CERCLA. The Munitions Response (MR) RI/FSs include evaluations of past MEC investigation and removal actions as well as recommendations for future remedial actions necessary to protect human health and the environment from the physical hazards associated with MEC. Information provided in this technical memorandum summarizes the actions taken to resolve incidents involving suspected CWM.

1.2 Purpose and Scope

This technical memorandum serves to document all available reports of the presence of potential CWM and all incident responses in which materials thought to contain CWM were encountered at Fort Ord. The available reports and supporting information presented in this memorandum have been compiled from information related to the Fort Ord MR RI/FS program, as well as the Basewide RI/FS program, which addresses soil and groundwater contamination at Fort Ord. The following sections describe how each of these reports and incidents was brought to the Army’s attention, the steps that were taken to verify the presence or absence of CWM, the results of analyses, follow-up documentation, and the final outcome of each incident.

2.0 RESPONSES TO SUSPECTED CHEMICAL WARFARE MATERIAL

The following sections describe events where and how the Army and DoD addressed finds of actual or suspected CWM at Fort Ord. The approximate locations of the responses discussed below are provided on Plate 2.1 as appropriate.

2.1 Chemical Agent Identification Sets Used at Fort Ord

Description: In 1993, Congress directed the Army to submit a survey and analysis report that identified the locations, types, and quantities of NSCM at its many facilities. The survey and analysis addressed 82 installations in over 33 states. In addition, it explained the methods used for destruction of this material, the cost and schedule for their destruction, and alternatives for transportation of these materials. The report was completed in November 1993 and updated in 1996, when it was expanded to include 96 locations in 38 states. As part of the Survey and Analysis Report, a records search was conducted regarding references to the use and disposal of CWM at Fort Ord. Only references to CAIS were discovered. The Survey and Analysis Report states that CAISs were used “for field training of troops at a site past the landfill area off Imjin Road.” The report also noted the removal of four CAISs from inventory at Fort Ord in 1974.

Related Investigations: The landfill off Imjin Road was investigated as MRS-2 (formerly OE-2). MRS-2 was initially investigated as part of the Ordnance and Explosive Waste Sampling and Removal Action conducted at Fort Ord in 1994. During the sampling activities, no MEC or CWM was observed. This area was also investigated as part of the investigation of Installation Restoration Program (IRP) Site 16 (Pete’s Pond Extension). Trenches were excavated in the area to evaluate the potential for chemicals in soil followed by extensive excavation of soil in the southern part of MRS-2 as part of the IRP Site 16 remedial action. No CWM was identified during the remediation. The remaining portion of MRS-2 was documented as a Track 1 Plug-in site in the Track 1 Plug-in Approval Memorandum, Multiple Sites, Groups 1-5, Former Fort Ord, California dated July 2006.

Final Disposition: The four CAISs in the inventory were removed from the installation in 1974 and sent to Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland. They were subsequently sent to Rocky Mountain Arsenal for destruction.

Supporting Documents: The following supporting documents are available in the Fort Ord Administrative Record:

2.2 Buried Drum Suspected of Containing Mustard Agent

Description: On August 27, 1993, while conducting a remedial investigation to delineate landfill material at IRP Site 16 (Pete’s Pond Extension), a reinforced drum was uncovered. The shape and unusual reinforcement of the drum led the onsite ordnance specialist monitoring remediation activities from UXB International (UXB), to suspect it could be associated with chemical agent.

Response: The following events occurred in response to the discovery:

1. Upon discovery of the “double bung drum,” all work stopped and the site was evacuated. According to standard procedures, the Installation (Range Control and Directorate of Environmental and Natural Resources [DENR]) was notified.

2. The Installation notified the Fort Ord Police and Fire Departments and then called the 787th Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) at Moffett Field to assess the drum. The police and fire departments evacuated a one-half-mile radius around the site, which was standard operating procedure.

3. The 787th EOD inspected the drum and conducted vapor tests, which were negative for chemical mustard. The drum contained some sand, but there was no indication of residual liquids or gas- vapor in it.

4. According to Stan Ryley, an Ordnance Specialist with HFA, the drum was “identical” to drums that can be found mounted outside buildings to feed heating oil systems. One such drum embossed “Associated Oil Co.” was found in storage at the Ammunition Supply Point (ASP).

5. At the Army’s direction, the drum was crushed and left in the trench, its location recorded, and the trench was backfilled.

6. Further excavation was postponed pending development of procedures and site safety plans for work involving potential exposure to CWM. An addendum to the Site Safety and Health Plan addressing CWM was completed on February 17, 1994.

7. On March 15, 1994, the investigation activities resumed at the site and one soil sample was collected from soil below the area where the drum was found and analyzed for mustard agent and its degradation products. Two additional samples collected from an adjacent soil boring were also analyzed for these compounds. The analytical results indicated that no mustard agent or its degradation products were present in the soil samples collected in the area where the drum was found.

Related Investigations: As part of the remedial action (landfill debris removal) performed during 1997 at Site 16, approximately 20,920 cubic yards (cy) of soil were excavated from the general area where the drum was identified. No evidence of CWM or related materials was identified during the excavation. The results of the remedial action are described in the Remedial Action Confirmation Report and Post- Remediation Health Risk Assessment, Sites 16 and 17 Remedial Action.

Disposition: Because the sample results for soil in and around the drum were non-detect, the drum was crushed and left in the trench, its location recorded, and the trench was backfilled. Remedial actions have been completed in the area, which included substantial excavation and removal of Pete’s Pond Landfill material, including the area containing the crushed drum. The area was subsequently backfilled with clean fill, and grading was performed at the site.

Clarification: Two documents published shortly after the drum was discovered, the Archive Search Report prepared by USACE in October 1993 and Fort Ord Phase I Work Plan and Accident Prevention Plan prepared by HFA in December 1993, inaccurately stated that the results from soil samples collected at the drum site indicated traces of mustard agent (HD). The analytical data show that mustard was not detected in the soil. This issue was clarified in a letter to Linda Millerick, cited below. There remains no evidence that drums of mustard agent were ever stored or used on Fort Ord.

2.3 Stokes Mortar Projectile Discovery

Description: On May 19, 1994, a four-inch World War I-era British Stokes mortar projectile was found in the former Impact Area between Ranges 23 and 23M within the western portion of the impact area near MRS-15SEA 03. The discovery was reported by UXB, an ordnance and explosives contractor that was surveying the Fort Ord firing ranges for unexploded ordnance. The projectile measured four inches in diameter, 19 inches in length, and weighed 25 pounds. Stokes mortar projectiles had a variety of designs, including practice, smoke, high explosive, and chemical weapons functions.

Response: The following events occurred in response to the discovery:

1. Ordnance Specialist Gary Cole of UXB noted that the projectile’s fuze was missing, the burster charge had been removed, and the projectile contained an unknown liquid.

2. The area was immediately evacuated and the Installation (Fort Ord Range Control and DENR) was notified. The Installation then notified other responders.

2-4 Technical Memorandum, CWM-Related Responses and Reports November 2, 2010 Former Fort Ord, California MACTEC Engineering and Consulting, Inc., Project No. 4088107669 05.2 FP63731_Tech Memo CWM Report

3. A Technical Escort Unit (TEU) from the Dugway Proving Ground was dispatched to the site and confirmed the projectile’s identity. They confirmed the projectile was filled with liquid and found the fuze nipple was of the small diameter variety usually reserved for chemical- rather than smoke-filled rounds.

4. The projectile was removed from the site and secured at the ASP.

5. On June 3, 1994, a team of technicians from the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) conducted a Portable Isotopic Neutron Spectroscope (PINS) assay test of the projectile.

Analytical Results: The program manager for the U.S. Army Chemical Materiel Agency’s Non- Stockpile Chemical Materiel Program reviewed the PINS test results and concluded that the projectile did not contain any chemical agent, but contained FM (titanium tetrachloride) smoke, a substance used solely to create smoke.

Disposition: According to Wilson Walters, occupational safety specialist for Huntsville USACE, because the FM smoke is conventional ordnance, not CWM, the projectile was turned back over to the onsite ordnance specialists to be destroyed properly onsite. According to James Anelle, project manager for Huntsville USACE, the projectile was destroyed onsite, according to established procedures for the MEC removal actions occurring at that time.

Clarification: Newspaper articles published shortly after the find incorrectly reported that the projectile contained phosgene. They also inaccurately reported that a team from the Sierra Army Depot responded to the site.

Supporting Documents: Documents listed below are provided in Attachment A:

• U.S. Army PINS Assay Quick Look Report (June 3, 1994).

• Telephone conversation record with Wilson Walters, Occupational Safety Specialist, USACE, dated August 13, 2001.

2.4 Chemical Discovered in Soil near Inter-Garrison Road

Description: On April 14, 1994, while conducting MEC investigation activities at MRS-31 (south of Inter-Garrison Road and east of Eighth Avenue), MR contractors became nauseated and dizzy. The contractors were investigating buried metal objects that had been detected. Presumably, their symptoms

All work was stopped and the site was evacuated.

Response: The Installation was notified immediately and the following actions were taken:

1. Notification was made to the Army Directorate of Public Works (DPW), Fort Ord Fire Department, Marina Department of Public Safety, U.S. Naval Postgraduate School Fire Department Hazardous Materials Unit, Seaside Fire Department Hazardous Materials Unit, and Monterey County Environmental Health Hazardous Materials Specialists.

2. A command center was set up at Eighth Avenue and Inter-Garrison Road; Inter-Garrison Road was closed between Eighth Avenue and Abrams Drive.

3. The metal containers were covered with plastic sheeting and a fence was erected around the area to secure the site. A 24-hour Federal Guard was placed near the site.

4. On April 15, 1994, soil and fluid samples were collected at the location where the UXO crew found buried metal debris and noted that odors were emanating from the excavation.

Analytical Results: Analytical results indicated the presence of various volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds and metals in the soil and liquid samples. The analytical results are included in the Action Memorandum dated July 13, 1994 listed in the supporting documents below. Two of these compounds, lead and dichlorobenzene compounds, were determined to be chemicals of potential concern because the concentrations exceeded the preliminary remediation goals (PRGs) established for Fort Ord. None of the compounds detected indicated the potential presence of CWM or chemical agent.

Because of the presence of chemicals exceeding PRGs, a Time-Critical Removal Action was conducted in October 1994 to remove metal debris and surrounding soil. Confirmation samples collected from the soil three feet beneath the surface at the two locations contained organic chemicals. Additional work was performed after the Time Critical Removal Action that included exploratory soil borings, soils sampling and analysis, and a screening risk evaluation. Further excavation of contaminated soil in the area was completed in May 1996. Confirmation samples collected from the floor and sides of each excavation were non-detect for all analytes except motor oil, which was below its target cleanup concentration for the site.

Disposition: Soil, metal containers, and other material generated during the Time-Critical Removal Action in October 1994 were turned over to the Fort Ord Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office

2.5 Possible DANC Discovered in Soil at Abrams Park Baseball Field

Description: On December 14, 1994, potential chemical soil contamination was discovered during trenching at the Operable Unit 2 (OU2) Area A landfills in the vicinity of the Abrams Park Housing Area baseball field. The presence of potential contamination was indicated by a change in soil color from the typical yellow to a gray color. The gray color, along with previous discoveries of a World War I-era mask and a five-gallon bucket labeled “DANC” during trenching on December 1 and 8, 1994, respectively, suggested the potential presence of contamination in the form of decontaminating agent, non-corrosive (DANC), a caustic chemical commonly used for chemical agent decontamination.

Response: The soil in the backhoe bucket was screened by UXB using an individual chemical agent monitor (ICAD). The alarm that indicates nerve gas (or other compound with a long carbon chain) on the ICAD was triggered by this soil; however, an organic vapor analyzer (OVA) did not indicate the presence of organic vapors and the ICAD’s hydrocarbon alarm was not triggered. The trench was immediately

No debris was found in the trench, but a World War I-era mask and a one-gallon bucket labeled “DANC” were also found in nearby trenches during the OU2 investigation.

A TEU from Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, conducted soil sampling on January 10 and 11, 1995. The samples were collected adjacent to the trench in which the soil was stained and the trench where the bucket labeled DANC was found. Splits of the samples were analyzed prior to shipping the soil samples offsite. Sampling was conducted to confirm the results of the initial field screening.

Analytical Results: The soils were analyzed for four nerve and blister agents: sarin (GB), soman (GD), HD, and a nerve agent (VX). Analytical results for the soil samples indicated that the soil was not contaminated with these compounds.

DANC is not CWM and is not highly toxic. It is a mixture of acetylene tetrachloride (a solvent) and RH195 (synonym 1, 3-Dichloro-5,5-Dimethylhydantoin), a mild bleach.

Disposition: Because no CWM was detected in conjunction with the DANC, the soil was treated as part of the adjacent landfill material. Remedial action has been completed in the OU2 Area A landfills, which resulted in significant excavation and removal of landfill material including the Abrams Park baseball field area.

2.6 Chemical Agent Identification Sets Discovered at MRS-13B

Description: On March 10, 1997, CWM in the form of CAIS kits were found by the USA Environmental, Inc. (USA), an ordnance and explosives contractor, during ordnance removal activities at MRS-13B (formerly OE-13B [Practice Mortar Range]):

• Two metal cans, identified as Set K951, CAIS, War Gas Identification Set, Instructional, M1.

• Partially buried one-ounce glass vials that appeared to correspond to the two metal cans.

Response: Upon discovering the vials, the following actions were taken:

1. All excavation operations ceased and the installation was notified. No vials were broken, indicating that no release of the contents had occurred. The site was secured, pending arrival of personnel from the 787th EOD unit from Moffett Field and a TEU from Dugway Proving Ground. The 787th EOD secured the discovery site. The TEU was responsible for recovering the vials from the surrounding soil, removing the vials from the installation, and escorting them to the appropriate offsite storage facility for later destruction. The USACE provided 24-hour security at the site.

2. On Tuesday, March 11, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) were notified. The TEU performed air sampling at the discovery site and concluded that there had been no chemical release. Over the next two days, 24 vials were recovered, representing two complete CAISs. The vials were repackaged and stored in the secure bunker at the ASP until they could be removed from the site.

Analytical Results: On October 2, 1997, chemical analysis using a RAMAN Spectrophotometer was performed on the 24 vials to identify their contents. The results of the analysis indicated the following:

• Six of the vials contained a mixture of phosgene and chloroform and six contained chloropicrin and chloroform

• Three vials contained a solution resembling chloroform with a five percent solution of Lewisite

• Nine vials contained 95 percent chloroform and another unidentified chemical compound. The unidentified chemical compound was treated as CWM.

Disposition: The 12 vials containing chloropicrin and phosgene mixtures were confirmed and treated as industrial waste and were transported and disposed properly, meeting all requirements, through the DRMO. The remaining 12 vials were shipped to Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland for further analysis and ultimate disposal.

2.7 One-Gallon Container at MRS-4B

Description of Report: During vegetation clearance activities at MRS-4B (formerly OE-4B) on January 28, 1998, an MR contractor found a one-gallon container that appeared to be a World War II vintage Landmine, 1 gal., Chemical. The container was filled with an unknown liquid, which could potentially have been CWM.

Response Action: The container was recovered, contained, and stored in a bunker at the ASP by Army EOD personnel from Moffett Field, California. Personnel from Aberdeen Proving Ground and Dugway Proving Ground later arrived to test the contents of the container.

Analytical Results: A PINS test for the item determined that the container was filled with water.

Disposition: Because the container was filled with water, it is not CWM. It was handled as nonhazardous waste.

2.8 Livens Projector

Description: At approximately 3:30 p.m. on April 12, 1999, an unexploded World War I-era Livens Projector shell was found during a MEC investigation in MRS-53 (formerly OE-53). USA, the ordnance contractor, discovered the Livens Projector. The Livens Projector measured approximately 28 inches long by 7-1/2 inches in diameter and contained liquid. Livens projectors were used at Fort Ord to project

Response:

1. On April 12, 1999, the 787th EOD team from Moffett Field arrived at the site and confirmed the identity of the Livens Projector.

2. The area was secured to prevent public access.

3. On April 14, 1999, a TEU from Dugway Proving Ground arrived to analyze the fill material and status of the firing mechanism. An x-ray showed the projector was fully intact, fused, and armed. The burster charge was present, the firing system and train were intact, and the shell had a 50 percent liquid fill. The shell was missing its handle and safety pin. The team then conducted a PINS assay test to identify the contents of the shell.

Analytical Results: The PINS test identified the shell’s contents as a sulfur trioxide-chlorosulfonic acid mixture, also known as FS smoke. FS is a liquid that produces a dense white smoke when dispersed into a humid atmosphere. It is similar to FM (titanium tetrachloride) in appearance, properties, and use.

Disposition: On April 19, 1999, the Livens Projector was transported by the 787th EOD to a secure location in the Impact Area and detonated using 200 pounds of explosives.

3.0 REPORTS OF SUSPECTED CHEMICAL WARFARE MATERIAL

The following sections describe actions taken in response to anecdotal evidence (documents, interviews, etc.) regarding suspected chemical CWM at Fort Ord.

3.1 Potential Storage of Mustard Gas Canisters in East Garrison

Nuclear Biological Chemical Storage

Description: According to an interview with a former Army private stationed at Fort Ord, mustard gas canisters were stored in the East Garrison nuclear biological chemical (NBC) warehouse, between 1980 and 1983. In July 1996, Lawrence Grater, a former private, responded to an advertisement in USA Today requesting people who had knowledge of ordnance and chemical weapons use at Fort Ord to call the Fort Ord Hotline. A telephone interview was subsequently conducted (Earth Tech Archives Search Control No. 96–004).

Response Action: A thorough investigation of documents related to NBC training has been conducted. No records indicate that CWM other than CAIS kits was used or stored at the former Fort Ord. As stated in an interview with Jerry Stratton, former Garrison Commander and Chief of Training at Presidio of Monterey, no CWM except CAIS was used at the installation. CAIS kits were stored at the NBC warehouse, but were handled under a strict sign out/sign in process.

In 1974, the 7th Infantry Division occupied the installation. The 761st Chemical Company was attached to the 7th Infantry Division and was responsible for detecting the presence of chemicals in the field and advising the units on decontamination procedures. They did not use CWM in their training activities.

Disposition: None. No mustard gas canisters have been identified at Fort Ord.

Supporting Documents: The following documents related to the above-mentioned action are located in Attachment A of this report:

• Earth Tech Archives Search Control No. 96-004, documentation of interview with Lawrence Grater.

• Telephone conversation record, documenting conversation with Jerry Stratton, August 13, 2001.

3.2 Suspected Burial of Chemical Agent Identification Sets

Description: In an interview conducted by USACE personnel in 1993, Staff Sergeant Davis suggested that CAISs were suspected to have been buried near the Imjin Road (Pete’s Pond) Landfill, between the roadway and old stockade.

Response: A follow-up interview was conducted to verify burial of CAISs in the area. As stated in a letter dated September 22, 1999, to Linda Millerick from James M. Willison, Director, Environmental and Natural Resources Management, his office contacted Staff Sergeant Davis, who stated that “the burial of CAIS was not known to him personally and that he could not specifically identify a location where CAIS might be buried.” Although several remedial investigations and surveys for unexploded ordnance have been conducted in the area (MRS-2, formerly OE-2), no CAISs have been discovered. As discussed in Section 2.6, the only non-inventory CAIS discovered at Fort Ord were discovered in MRS 13-B.

Disposition: None. No CAISs have been identified during any investigations near the Imjin Road (Pete’s Pond) Landfill.

Supporting Documents: The following documents related to the above-mentioned action are in the Administrative Record:

• Memorandum on CAIS Found on Fort Ord, prepared by James Willison, Director, Environmental and Natural Resources Management, dated March 12, 1997 (AR # 0265D).

3.3 Potential Use/Storage of Chemical Agent Identification Sets in

the Chemical/Biological/Radiological Areas

Description: Four chemical/biological/radiological (CBR) training areas have been identified on historical maps, as reported in the Revised Archive Search Report prepared by the USACE, St. Louis District, in 1997. The CBR storage areas may have been used for storage of CAIS, and nearby areas may have been used for simulated chemical training.

Response: All four sites were identified as requiring MEC investigations. These four areas were originally designated Sites OE-4A, OE-4B, OE-4C (now part of Site OE-31), and OE-4D (renamed Site OE-40). These sites are currently named MRS-4A, MRS -4B, MRS - 31, and MRS -40 in accordance with revised MMRP site naming conventions. Site walks of MRS-4A and MRS-4B were conducted in 1993-94, and additional survey and sampling activities at these two sites were conducted in 1997. Although MEC and munitions debris (MD) were observed, no CWM was observed. In 1998, removal actions were conducted at MRS-4A and MRS-4B to remove MEC to a depth of three to four feet. Ordnance and ordnance scrap were identified and removed; however, no CWM was discovered.

Site MRS-4C underwent a MEC removal action as part of the California State University footprint (MRS-31 removal). A removal action was also completed at MRS-40 as part of the MRS-50 removal action.

MRS-4B and MRS-40 were evaluated as part of the Final Track 2 Munitions Response, Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study, Parker Flats Munitions Response Area. No CWM was identified during removal actions at these sites.

Disposition: None. No CWM has been identified in these areas.

3.4 Possible Use of Chemical Agent for Training at Picnic Canyon

Description: From May 1982 to the time of the base closure, Fort Ord Ranges N-1 and N-2 (known as Picnic Canyon and also identified as MRS-12) were used as a Squad Live Fire Reaction Course (SLFRC) to train army troops under simulated battle conditions (Plate 2.1). Training activities were restricted to the canyon floor within 100 meters of the trail that runs through the canyon. Live fire was directed at the east and west canyon walls. The SLFRC was used approximately 45 times a year for:

1. Live-Fire Assault Training (using 5.56 mm and 7.62 mm ammunition), and use of 40 mm practice projectiles.

2. Simulated NBC Integrated Training, in which troops encountered a variety of combat scenarios that simulated battle conditions involving nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons.

Response: The following literature was reviewed to evaluate the possibility that chemical, nuclear, or biological weapons material was used at Picnic Canyon:

1. Ft. Ord PAM 350-5: Standard Operating Procedures, (Area N-1 and N-2), Squad Live-Fire Reaction Course (May 3, 1982).

2. Disposition Form/AFZW–AF: Live-Fire Squad Assault Range, Area N, Fort Ord Tactical Training Area (March 1, 1983).

3. Disposition Form/AFZW–GC–CM: NBC Integrated Training Area Letter of Instruction (LOI) (January 31, 1984).

5. Decision Memorandum/AFZW–PTM–R: Waiver of Surface Danger Zone for Small Arms Firing on Range N–1 and N–2 (March 4, 1991).

6. Decision Memorandum/AFZW–PTM–R Revised: Waiver of Surface Danger Zone for Small Arms Firing on Range N–1 and N–2 (April 27, 1992).

7. Draft Final Data Summary and Work Plan, Site 39, Inland Ranges, Fort Ord, California.

The literature review indicates that only practice occurred here and that CWM was not used during that practice.

According to Disposition Form/AFZW–GC–CM: NBC Integrated Training Area LOI, among the support equipment used in NBC training were the following weapons simulation components: (1) Warsaw Pact contamination markers; (2) North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) contamination markers; (3) white or yellow smoke grenades; (4) CG burning grenades; (5) polyethylene glycol (PEG– 200); (6) N-Butyl Mercaptan (an odorant); (7) M-9 Simulator, Projectile, Airburst, Liquid (SPAL) Devices; (8) simulated VX land mines; (9) simulated nerve agent rounds, and (10) smoke generators (52d Cml Det.). None of these items constitutes CWM.

Disposition: Because this site was identified as an MRS, random sampling was conducted in 1994-1995 and MEC removal was conducted between September 1997 and January 1998. The removal was performed to a depth of one foot over the entire 28 acres of the site. Although MEC and munitions debris were discovered, no CWM or biological or radiological weapons were observed.

Supporting Documents: In addition to the documents listed above, the following documents related to the above-mentioned action are in the administrative record:

3.5 Suspect Drum in Range 31

Description: In April 1994, a large, heavy gauge steel drum was discovered during field investigations in the down range area of Range 31, within the Impact Area. The drum was reinforced with support ring bands on the sides and a welded bung and appeared to be similar to drums used to store CWM.

Response: A site walk was conducted on August 9, 2000. Harding ESE, Inc., representatives and a USACE OE Safety Specialist attempted to locate the drum, but were unable to because of existing heavy vegetation, or because the location of the drum was possibly misidentified. However, the OE safety specialist was provided a snapshot of the drum and subsequently concluded that it was a fuel drum of the type mentioned in Section 2.2.

Disposition: The drum was no longer suspected of containing CWM; therefore, when it is discovered, it will be turned over to the Fort Ord DRMO for disposal.

Supporting Documents: The letter below is located in Attachment A of this report:

• Letter to Harvey D. Jones, Army Corps of Engineers, from Bruce L. Wilcer, HLA, dated May 5, 1994.

3.6 Possible Chemical Training Area

Description: In an interview conducted by USACE personnel in 1993, Maurice MacBride, who was a military dependent during 1933-37, said he remembered watching soldiers training with protective masks on in an area between the stockade and Imjin Road (between the intersection of Fifth and Eighth Streets and the intersection of Imjin and Eight Streets.) He thought that live agents were probably not being used for the training because the horses present were not masked. This site overlaps the area discussed in Section 3.2 of this report.

Response: This area was identified as corresponding with MRS-2/IRP Site 16. It is also known as Pete’s Pond. Remedial Actions have already been completed in the area, including excavation and removal of Pete’s Pond Landfill. The area was also sampled for MEC. No CWM was identified in any of these investigations and removal actions.

Disposition: None. No CWM was identified.

4.0 CONCLUSION

There is no evidence of CWM weapons having been used at former Fort Ord based on the results of the incidents and investigations described above. A comprehensive search was conducted at Fort Ord and did not uncover any evidence in records, interviews, or other information sources to indicate that chemical weapons were ever stored, used, or buried at Fort Ord. Evidence indicates that the only CWM used at the former Fort Ord were CAISs, which were used to train soldiers to recognize and protect themselves from chemical agents, as described in Section 1.0 of this report.

In addition, more than 13 million anomalies have been investigated and more than 300,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil have been excavated during investigations and removals at Fort Ord without any evidence of CWM weapons, or other evidence that contradicts the results and conclusions presented in this technical memorandum. Although it is unlikely, should additional CAISs be discovered at Fort Ord, the removal and remediation will follow the Non-Stockpile Chemical Warfare Material Program protocol.

SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA

LIMIT (AEL): The AEL for HD is 0.003 mg/m3 as found AIRBORNE EXPOSURE and Control in "AR 40-173, Occupational Health Guidelines for the Evaluation Exposure to l'Iustard Agents H, ED, HT". To date, however, of Occupational has not promulgated the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) a permissible exposure concentration for HD. and alkylating EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: HD is a vesicant (causing blisters) action on the hematopoietic (blood-forming) agent producing cytotoxic of ED in tissues which are especially sensitive. The rate of detoxificati.on and repeated exposures produce a cumulative effect. the body is very slow Agency for HD has been found to be a human carcinogen by the International Research on Cancer (IARe). l'Iedian doses of HD in man are:

LD50 (skin) ~ 100 mg/kg ICt50 (skin) ~ 2000 mg-min/m3 at 70 - 80 DEG F (humid en~ironment) = 1000 mg-min/m3 ICt50 (eyes) at 90 DEG F (dry lCt50 (inhalation)= 200 mg-min/m3 environment) = 1500 mg-min/m3 LD50 (oral) (Ct unchanged = 0.7 mg/kg with time) Maximum safe Ct for skin and eyes are 5 and 2 ACUTE PHYSIOLOGICAL mg-min/m3, respectively.

Real-time, low-level monitors (with alard) are required for HD operations. In their absence, an IDLH atmosphere must be presumed. Laboratory opera­ tions conducted in appropriately maintained and alarmed engineering controls require only periodic low-level monitoring. ------SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS ------PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: During handling, the "buddy" (two-man) system will be used. Containers should be periodically inspected for leaks, eit~er vi~ually or using a detector kit, and prior to transfering the conta1ners from storage to work areas. Stringent control over all personnel handling HD must be exercised. Chemical showers, eyewash stations, and personal cleanliness facilities must be provided. Each worker will wash their hands before meals and shower thoroughly with special attention given to hair, face, neck, and hands using plenty of soap before leaving at the end of the work day. No smoking, eating, or drinking is permitted at the work site. Decontaminating equip­ ment shall be conveniently located. Exits must be designed to permit rapid evacuation. HD should be stored in containers made of glass for Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDTE) quantities or one-ton steel con­ tainers for large quantities. Agent shall be double-contained in liquid­ tight containers when in storage. OTHER PRECAUTIONS: For additional information see "AR 385-61, The Army Toxic Chemical Agent Safety Program", "DA PAM 385-61, Toxic Chemical Agent Safety Standards'l, and liAR 40-173, Occupational, Health Guideli.nes for the Evaluation and Control of Occupational Exposure to Mustard Agents H, HD, and HT".
