An overview of the structure of this EIS is presented below. The SUMMARY briefly describes the proposed action and its alternative, as well as the associated environmental impacts. SECTION 1, PURPOSE OF AND NEED FOR THE PROPOSED ACTION, summarizes the background of the Army’s Alternative Technology Program, and, in particular, the proposed action for NECD. It also describes the environmental impact analysis process and defines the scope of this EIS. SECTION 2, THE PROPOSED ACTION AND ALTERNATIVES, provides background information about the agent VX stored at NECD; the details of the pilot test activities proposed by the Army; and a brief discussion of the alternatives to this proposal. The section concludes with a summary comparing the impacts of the alternatives. SECTION 3, DESCRIPTION OF THE EXISTING ENVIRONMENT, discusses the current physical, environmental, and socioeconomic conditions on and around NECD. This section provides the resource information upon which the assessment of environmental impacts is based. SECTION 4, ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS, presents the potential environmental impacts and the socioeconomic effects associated with the various alternatives; the unavoidable environmental impacts that will accompany the proposed action; the irreversible and irretrievable commitment of resources that will occur under the proposed action; the manner in which the proposed action will affect the short- and long-term productivity of the environment; and the list of permits, approvals, findings, and consultations that are required prior to the implementation of the proposed action. The APPENDICES provide supporting information and/or detailed analyses, too lengthy to be incorporated directly into the main body of the EIS. A list of ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS is provided to assist the reader. It can be found immediately following the Table of Contents and the List of Tables.

WELSH Commander Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army Newport Chemical Depot (Environment, Safety and Occupational Health), OASA (I, L&E) DOCUMENT DESIGNATION: FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT ABSTRACT: In response to Public Law 102-484, the U.S. Army is considering the use of technologies other than incineration to destroy the chemical warfare agent VX currently stored at the Newport Chemical Depot (NECD) in Indiana. A series of studies, initiated by the U.S. Army’s Alternative Technologies Program and the Program Manager for Chemical Demilitarization, has recommended the pilot testing of a chemical neutralization (i.e., hydrolysis) process followed by supercritical water oxidation as a possible method of accomplishing the required destruction of agent VX. This Environmental Impact Statement was prepared to assess the potential environmental impacts of the construction and operation of such a pilot test facility. The preferred location for the proposed facility is adjacent to the existing chemical agent storage warehouse at NECD. The alternative is no action (i.e., continued storage of the stockpile). The environmental impacts of facility construction would be minimal and would be similar to those from the construction of any medium-sized industrial facility. No adverse human health or environmental impacts are expected to occur during the g-month period of routine pilot testing operations. Preliminary risk analyses and accident assessments indicate that the proposed pilot test operations could involve accidents, but that such accidents would have less severe consequences than accidents that might occur during continued storage of the VX agent. In the event of a worst case accident, the potential number of off-site fatalities during pilot testing could be 50, compared to 18,500 for continued storage.

Smithson INTRODUCTION On the 29th of April 1997, the majority of the world’s nations joined to activate an arms control and nonproliferation accord that will gradually compel the elimination of one of the most abhorred classes of weapons of all times. Previously, the international community had fallen short of the mark in efforts to try to abolish poison gas, despite the opprobrium following its widespread use in World War I.1 The new Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) extends the no use-prohibitions of the 1925 Geneva Protocol2 to outlaw the development, acquisition, production, transfer, and stockpiling of chemical weapons as well. The CWC requires the destruction of chemical weapons production facilities and arsenals over a ten-year period, and countries will witness the shrinking numbers of poison gas factories and munitions. A less tangible function of the CWC, but one that may turn out to be equally valued over the long term is that the CWC will help redefine how states assure their national security. The CWC requires nations to declare activities that were previously considered state secrets and private business information. The treaty authorizes routine and challenge inspections to monitor compliance with its prohibitions. Instead of building large caches of arms, the CWC’s verification processes give governments reason to be confident that managed transparency—a limited waiver of state sovereignty—can enhance national and international security.

The Research, Development and Engineering Command located the record, US Army Activity in the U.S. Biological Warfare Program, 1942-1977s, Volume 1. 25 February 1977. I enclosed a redacted version of the record. Additionally, we located an excerpt from the book Clouds of Secrecy, The Army’s Germ Warfare Tests over Populated Areas, written by Leonard A. Cole. Mr. Cole’s book is available to the general public on the open market. The redacted record was subject to FOIA exemption (b)(2) HIGH. Exemption (b)(2) HIGH protects substantial internal matters where disclosure would risk circumvention of a legal requirement. Additionally, the redacted information is sensitive to internal Army operations. Mr. Brian May, Research, Development and Engineering Command’s Freedom of Information Act Officer, conducted a brief search of the Defense Technical Information Center secure library and determined additional records may exist. If you seek additional information on this subject, I suggest you submit a Freedom of Information Act request with the Defense Technical Information Center using the title of the enclosed record.

Historically, the information in this publication has been advisory is nature even though legislation and regulation, in some circumstances, have overtaken it and made compliance with the guidance provided mandatory. We wish to emphasize that the 5th edition of the BMBL remains an advisory document recommending best practices for the safe conduct of work in biomedical and clinical laboratories from a biosafety perspective, and is not intended as a regulatory document though we recognize that it will be used that way by some. This edition of the BMBL includes additional sections, expanded sections on the principles and practices of biosafety and risk assessment; and revised agent summary statements and appendices. We worked to harmonize the recommendations included in this edition with guidance issued and regulations promulgated by other federal agencies. Wherever possible, we clarified both the language and intent of the information provided.

  • 14. Chemical and Biological Warfare Developments and Arms Control
    14. Chemical and biological warfare developments and arms control RICHARD GUTHRIE, JOHN HART and FRIDA KUHLAU I. Introduction In 2005 the states parties to the 1972 Biological and Toxin Weapons Conven- tion (BTWC)1 held their third annual expert and political meetings, which con- sidered ‘the content, promulgation, and adoption of codes of conduct for sci- entists’ and started preparations for the Sixth Review Conference, to be held in 2006. The states parties to the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC)2 decided to extend the action plans on national implementation and universal- ity. The US-led Iraq Survey Group (ISG) published its conclusions on past Iraqi weapon programmes at the end of its investigations in Iraq, and further information was made public about the sources that had been used for pre-war intelligence and the methodologies for handling such information. More infor- mation relating to allegations of terrorist acquisition of chemical and bio- logical materials for hostile purposes was revealed as a consequence of the acquittals of a number of individuals accused of such activities. Issues relating to the control of biological weapons are discussed in section II of this chapter. Developments in chemical weapons and disarma- ment are described in section III. Section IV discusses developments in rela- tion to Iraq and the connected intelligence issues. Section V covers other alle- gations, activities and prosecutions. Section VI presents the conclusions. Appendix 14A considers means of enhancing bio-security and the need for a global strategy. II. Biological issues In 2005 Moldova acceded to the BTWC, meaning that, as of 31 December 2005, 155 states were parties to it.
