SOLID WASTE MAIIAGEMENT UNIT
SEMI.ANNUAL IC INSPECTION
TOOELE AR}yTY DEPOT
TOOELE, UTAH
l.O INTRODUCTION
This report documents the spring 2008 inspection of Institutional Controls (ICs) on Solid
Waste Management Units (SWMUs) located on the Tooele Army Depot (TEAD), as well as the
fonner TEAD Industrial Area - Utah Industrial Depot. ICs have been implemented as part of the
selected corrective measures for each site. This inspection was conducted as required by TEAD's
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Post Closure Permit for Post Closure
Monitoring and Corrective Action of SWMUs, issued June 25, 2005. As required by the permit,
TEAD will conduct semi-annual inspections to ensure the continued effectiveness and retention
of all implemented ICs.
The inspection documented by this report was conducted by the TEAD Environmental
Office between March 1l and March 17, 2008. Figure 1 provides the location of each SWMU
inspected. The SWMUs addressed during this inspection include:
2.0 INSPECTION RESULTS
2.1 SWMU lb - Burn Pads
2.1.1 Site Background
The Burn Pad is located in a small erosional valley approximately 2,000 feet east of the
Main Demolition Area (SWMU 01). Site activities began prior to 1959 and reportedly were

SWMU 29 - Drum Storage Area SWMU 56 - Gravel Pit Disposal Area
discontinued before 1977. The area has since been re-graded and revegetated, and is no longer
used for demilitarization activities. SWMU 01b previously consisted of a 300 by 100 foot
cleared pad where propellant was burned in open trenches and projectiles were flashed. Based
on historical aerial photographs from 1959, 1966, and 1978, five separate trenches were located
in the pad. No permanent structures were associated with operations at the Burn Pad.
2.1.2 Site Investigations
During the completion of the RCRA Facility Investigation (RFI), test pits were excavated
and soil samples were collected to determine whether contamination existed due to previous
historical activities. One explosive was identifred as a Contaminant of Potential Concern
(COPC) in surface soil. In subsurface soil, metals, explosives, and dioxins/furans were identified
as COPCs. Unexploded ordnance (UXO) was also encountered in the subsurface soils during the
RFI.
Future investigations to be conducted at the site under the Army's Military Munitions
Response Program (M[,m.P) are planned for this site. A Site Inspection (SI) of the site was
completed lin2007 with a recommendation to conduct additional investigations of the site under
a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RVFS). MMRP activities will be conducted under
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)
process.
2.1.3 Site Risk
The human health risk assessment (RA) identified cancer risks greater than the target
value of 1x10-6 for hypothetical futtre onsite adult residents, and an elevated hazard index (HI)
for hypothetical future onsite child residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for
current workers or future construction workers, In addition, all projected blood lead levels were
below the Center for Disease Control (CDC) target of 10 pgldl-. As UXO was found on the site,
and explosivehazard is also known to be present.
The ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil at SWMU 01b present a
low ecological risk.
2.1.4 Current Land use
The current land use for SWMU 01b is industriaVmilitary. The site is located within the
boundaries of the active operating Open Burning/Open Detonation (OB/OD) area. No
demilitarization activities are conducted on SWMU Olb.
2.1.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 01b, and no planned demilitarization
activities are expected to occur on the site.
2.1.6 Corrective Measures
No Contaminants of Concem (COCs) were identified at SWMU 01b. Therefore
considering the results of the human health RA, ICs in the fonn of land use controls (LUCs),
excavation restrictions, site fencing, and signage were selected as the corrective measure for this
site. The LUCs are intended to prohibit futrue residential use or development of the site. The
land use contols also include a notation that prohibits disturbance of the site unless a UXO
survey and clearance is conducted. Site fencing is intended to prohibit unauthorized access, and
signage warning of the UXO potential and access restrictions are required.
2.1.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection of SWMU 01b (figure 2) was conducted on March 17,2008. The
site remains under the control of the Anny, and is located within the boundaries of the active
open burning/open detonation area. To the south of the site, and outside of the installation, a
new county road has been constructed along the installation boundary connecting State Road 36
to the Mormon Trail. The primary purpose of the new road is for access to a gravel mining
operation located south of the installation. The active open buming/open detonation area is
fenced with warning signage. The site remains unused and undeveloped. At the time of this
inspection there were not indications of disturbance of the site.
2.2 SWMU lc - Trash Burn Pits
2.2.1 Site Background
The Trash Bum Pits are located in the southwest corner of TEAD, in a small erosional
valley 2,000 feet east of the Main Demolition Area (SWMU 01), and adjacent to the Bum Pad
(SWMU 01b). The site is an open, graded, and vegetated area of approximately 45 acres, with
no pennanent structures. Disposal and waste buming activities occurred at SWMU 01c from
approximately 1959 to the 1980s. Disposal pits were reportedly several hundred feet long, 8 to
10 feet wide, and 4 to 6 feet deep.
2.2.2 Site Investigations
Test pits were excavated and soil samples were collected to determine whether
contamination existed on the site due to previous historical activities. Containers and other
wastes were identified within test pits excavated in the areas of waste disposal activities dating
from the 1950s to 1960s. Burn areas on the ground surface were encountered in areas of waste
disposal activities dating from the 1970s to 1980s. Metals and explosives were identified as
COPCs in surface and subsurface soils. Dioxins/furans were identified as COPCs in subsurface
soil only. UXO was also encountered during the RFI.
Future investigations to be conducted at the site under the Army's Military Munitions
Response Program (MMRP) are planned for this site. A Site Inspection (SI) of the site was
completed in 2007 with a recommendation to conduct additional investigations of the site under
a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RVFS). MMRP activities will be conducted under
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)
process.

demilitarization activities are conducted on SWMU 01c.
2.2.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 01c, and no planned demilitarization
activities are expected to occur on the site.
2.2.6 Corrective Measures
At SWMU 01c, one explosive was identified as a COC in surface soil, and metals were
identifred as COCs in subsurface soil..Howevetr, the COC exposure point concentrations (EPCs),
which correspond to a weighted site wide concentration are below corrective action objectives.
Also, the elevated HI for future construction workers is due to the presence of manganese in soil
at concentrations that are less than the average for the western United States. Therefore
considering the results of the human health RA, ICs in the form of land use controls (LUCs),
excavation restrictions, site fencing, and signage were selected as the corrective measure for this
site. The LUCs are intended to prohibit future residential use or development of the site. The
the
No
land use contols also include a notation that prohibits disturbance of the site unless a UXO
survey and clearance is conducted. Site fencing is intended to prohibit unauthorized access, and
signage waming of the UXO potential and access restrictions are required.
2.2.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection of SWMU Olc (figure 3) was conducted on March 17,2008.
The site remains under the control of the Army, and is located within the boundaries of the active
open burning/open detonation area. To the south of the site, and outside of the installation, a new
county road has been constructed along the installation boundary connecting State Road 36 to the
Monnon Trail. The road is used primarily to access a gravel mining operation which is located
south of the installation boundary. The active open burning/open detonation area is fenced with
warning signage. The site remains undeveloped and unused. At the time of the inspection there
were no indications of disturbance of the site.
2.3 SWMU 03 -X-Rav Lasoon
2.3.1 Site Background
The X-Ray Lagoon is a 75 by 35 foot by 6 foot deep lined lagoon which fuom L974
through 1990 received rinse water from film washing, and diluted spent developer and fixer
solutions from the Film Processing Facility @uilding 1223). Little information is available
concerning the history of operations prior to 1974, though Building 1223 was the site of the
former Redeye Missile Rebuild Facility.
2.3.2 Site Investigations
Soil, sediment, and groundwater samples were collected to detennine if contamination
existed from previous activities. Metals were detected in lagoon sediments, in soil from a
standing liquid area, in sludge from an adjacent septic tank. Metals were also detected in various
subsurface soil samples at levels exceeding background concenftations and were identified as
COPCS.
2.3.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of lx10-6 for
the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors, and an elevated HI for adult
and child receptors. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for actual current and likely
future Depot personnel. Risks and HIs are from soiVsediment exposure. No ground water
exposure occurs.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil at SWMU 03
present a low ecological risk.
2.3.4 Current Land Use
The current land use at SWMU 03 is industriat/military. The site is located within the
boundaries of the secure ammunition storage area. The lagoon remains unused and does not
receive any waste water.
2.3.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use at SWMU 03, and no planned reactivation of the
lagoon.
2.3.6 Corrective Measures
No COCs were identified in soil samples at SWMU 03. Elevated levels of metal in
groundwater have been demonstrated to be due to corrosion of stainless steel well materials, not
to site related activities. Therefore, considering the results of the human health RA, ICs in the
form of LUCs were selected as the corrective measure for this site. The LUCs are intended to
prohibit future residential use or development of the site. In addition to the application of LUCs,
corrective measures implemented at the site included the abandonment of several monitoring
wells, as ground water monitoring is no longer required. The abandonment of five monitoring
wells located on the site was completed in October 2005. One monitoring well was left in place
at the site to facilitate future water level measurements if required.
2.3.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 03 (figure 4) on March 17, 2008. The
lagoon remains under the control of the Arrny. Buildings located to the south of the lagoon are
currently active and are utilized for conducting ammunition maintenance and shrpping
operations. There are no indications of discharges to the lagoon from these facilities. The
lagoon remains unused and there were no visible signs of discharge to the lagoon. The site is
fenced with waming signage.
2.4 SWMU 04 - Sandblast Areas (Buitdinss 600.615 and 617)
2.4.1 Site Background
SWMU 04 is located on the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) parcel, within the
former TEAD industrial area. It includes sandblast areas located outside of Buildings 600, 615,
and 617. Degreasing, sandblasting, paint stripping, and painting operations were conducted at
these facilities. Degreasing wastes, as well as wastes from stripping and painting operations,
were drummed and removed for offsite disposal.
2.4.2 Site Investigations
Surface and subsurface soil samples were collected to detennine if contamination existed
on the site as a result of the historical sandblast operations. At building 600, metals were
detected in surface soil at levels exceeding background concentrations and were identified as
COPCs. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi volatile organic compounds (SVOCs)
were also detected in surface soils, and were identified and COPCs. At buildings 615 and 617,
metals were detected in surface soils and subsurface soils at levels exceeding background
concentrations and were identified as COPCs. VOCs and SVOCs were also identified as COPCs
as they were detected in both surface and subsurface soils.
Additional investigations are currently being conducted at building 615 as part of the on-
going SWMU 58 RFI to determine if VOCs remaining in the vadose zollie are a source of ground
water contamination. Sampling results obtained to date indicate that a significant amount of
contamination remains in the vadose zore at this site that may require the implementation of
additional corrective measures.
2.4.3 Site Risk
At building 600, tle human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value
of 1x10-6 for the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors, and an elevated
HI greater than 1.0 for the child receptor. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for the
actual current and reasonably anticipated future industrial worker, or for the future construction
worker.
At buildings 615, and 617, the human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the
target value of lxl0-6 for the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptor. No
elevated HIs were identified. In addition, for the future residential child, the percentage of
receptors exceeding the CDC blood lead level guidelines for lead in soil was greater than the 5
percent target. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for the actual current and
reasonably anticipated future industrial worker, nor for future construction worker receptors.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPC detected in soil and buildings 600,
615, and 617 present a low ecological risk.
2.4.4 Current Land Use
SWMU 04 is located on properly currently owned by the Utah Industrial Depot. The
current land use of site is industrial.
2.4.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use at SWMU 04. The reasonably anticipated future
land use remains industrial.
2.4.6 Corrective Measures
At building 600, one polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and lead were identified as
COCs in surface soil samples, but at concentrations only slightly above corresponding CAOs and
in isolated samples. The EPC for each COC, which represents a risk based exposure level, was
compared to the industrial CAO. The PAH EPC was below its corresponding CAO, indicating
no risk derives from that compound for an industrial use. The EPC for lead is just above its
CAO, and it only occurred in one sample. Therefore, considering the results of the human health
RA, ICs in the forrn of deed restrictions were selected as the corrective measure for this site. The
deed restrictions me intended to prohibit future residential use or development of the site. The
deed restrictions have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally
binding. Deed restriction on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental
covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
At building 615 and 617, two PAHs, lead, and chromium were identified as COCs in
surface soil samples. However, the EPCs are below the CAOs for the metals and one PAH. The
EPC for the remaining PAH is at a level such that it does not pose a risk to an industrial worker.
Therefore, considering the results of the human health RA, ICs in the form of deed restrictions
were selected as the corrective measure for this site. The deed restrictions are intended to
prohibit future residential use or development of the site. The deed restrictions have been
incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed restriction on the
BRAC property are goveflred by the associated environmental covenants, conditions, and
restrictions (CCRs).
2.4.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at Building 600 (frgure 5) on March 11,2008.
The facility is currently occupied and is utilized by the Utah Industrial Depot as their facility
maintenance shop and storage area.
A visual site inspection was conducted at building 615 (frgure 6) on March 11, 2008. The
facility is currently being utilized by a private entity for sandblast and painting operations.
General house keeping by the current occupant is considered very poor, as was noted in the
previous inspections. Signifrcant quantities of sandblast media and paint overspray were
observed in the area surrounding the facility. The site is currently zoned by Tooele City for
Industrial Use. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned. The
area srurounding the facility is considered a probable source area contributing to the
contamination of SWMU 58 which is currently under investigation. Several stages of
investigation and sampling have been conducted around and beneath the building as part of those
investigations. Furttrer corrective action may be required at the site upon completion of the
SWMU 58 studies.
A visual site inspection was conducted at building 617 (frgure 7) on March 11,2008.
Building 617 is currently unoccupied and not being used. The sandblast booth located adjacent
to and south of building 617 has been removed from the site. No residential use or development
of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.5 SWMU 11- Laundrv Effluent Ponds and Waste Piles
2.5.1 Site Background
The laundry effluent pond was constructed n lg47 for the collection of laundry and
shower water from building 1267, and boiler water from building 1237. SWMU ll consists of
the laundry pond, sewage pond, sand pit, septic tank, leach field, and the waste pile area located
to the east. Discharge to the laundry effluent pond was discontinued in 1990; however, it
continued to receive boiler water during the winter months until 1995. The benned, unlined
pond is approximately 16 feet deep, 80 feet wide, and 100 feet long.
The sewage pond, constructed between 1978 and 1990 for the collection of waste water
from buildng 1267, is benned, unlined, and is 8 feet deep, 120 feet wide, and 134 feet long.
However, it was never used, and any water observed in the pond was likely the result of rain,
snow melt, or infiltration from the adjacent septic system.
A shallow sand pit, located next to the new TNT washout pond, was reportedly excavated
to provide cover material for the old TNT washout ponds when they were capped.
The septic tank is located south of the sewage pond; with the leach field reportedly
beneath the pond. From 1948 through 1990, the septic tank and leach field reportedly received
waste water for buildings 1245, 1267, and 1254.
' Waste piles identified in the fall of 1992 were reported to contain wood fragments, metal
banding, electrical wiring, metal shavings, and old automotive parts.
2.5.2 Site Investigations
Sediment, surface and subsurface soil samples were collected to determine if
contamination existed on the site as a result of historic activities. Elevdted metals and SVOCs
were detected in laundry effluent pond and sewage pond sediment and in surface soil, while
septic tank sludge and subsurface soil contained elevated levels of metals, SVOCs, and VOCs.
These contaminants were identified as COPCs. Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and
elevated metals were detected in soil near the waste piles and were identified as COPCs.
Elevated metals and SVOCs were detected in laundry effluent pond surface water, while
the sewage pond water contained VOCs, SVOCs, an explosive, and metals at concentrations
exceeding background. These contaminants were identified as COPCs.
2.5.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1x10-6 for
the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors, and elevated HIs for both
receptors. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for actual current and likely future
Depot personnel. However, blood lead levels for resident and depot personnel exceeded the
CDC target of 10 pgldl.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the metals detected in soil at SWMU 1l
present a moderate ecological risk.
2.5.4 Current Land Use
The current land use at SWMU 11 is industrial. The paved areas within the boundaries of
the SWMU are currently being used as part of the SWMU 10 soil composting facility that was
constructed in the summer of 20A7 south of the laundry pond. The compositing facility extends
east into the area of the SWMU 11 waste piles.
2.5.5 Future Land Use
There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU 11. The use of the site will remain
industriaVmilitary. Over the next twelve months, a portion of the SWMU as well as an area
adjacent to the SWMU will be utilized for the composting of explosives contaminated soil from
SWMU IO.
2.5.6 Corrective Measures
Within the ponds (laundry effluent and sewage), no COCS were identified for surface
water. Metals were detected near the sewage pond (9 feet below surface) at a concentration
above the corresponding CAO; however, because no one is expected to contact material this
deep during construction, and the EPC is well below the CAO, metals were not identified as a
COC.
10
SVOCs were detected in surface soil samples at the laundry effluent pond, but at a
concentration only slightly above the corresponding CAO and only in one sample.
Concentrations of two SVOCs, which were detected in sediment samples collected from a small
area within the sewage pond exceeded their respective CAO and were identified and COCs.
Corrective measures implemented at SWMU 1l consisted of the excavation and off site
disposal of soil contaminated with metals from the Waste Pile Area, and soils contaminated with
SVOCs from the laundry effluent pond. The excavation of soil was driven by the CAOs for
industrial use of the site. In addition to the soil removal, ICs in the form of LUCs were
implemented as part of the corrective measure for this site. The LUCs are intended to prohibit
future residential use or development of the site.
2.5.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual inspection of SWMU 11 (figures 8 and 9) was conducted on March 17,2008.
The site remains under control of the Anny. The lagoons were empW, and there was no visible
sign of discharge to them. There are no known plans for development of the lagoon site, with the
exception of the SWMU 10 corrective measures which are underway and will continue for
approximately twelve months.
The waste pile excavations, which were not re-seeded during completion of corrective
measures have significantly re-vegetated naturally. The vegetation cover is now adequate and no
signs of erosion were observed.
2.6 SWMU 12115 - Pesticide Disposal Area/Sanitarv Landfill
2.6.1 Site Background
The Sanitary Landfill (SWMU 15) covers approximately 70 acres and was used for the
disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste dating backto 1942. The waste was builed in
trenches or placed in natural depressions, and covered with soil from the surrounding area. The
southerr portion of the SWMU was closed in the 1980s. The north and central portions of the
landfill were closed to ttre disposal of domestic waste in the spring of 1994; however, this
portions of the landfrll continued to accept construction debris, asphalt, and asbestos until the
spring of 1996.
The landfill reportedly handled conventional sanitary waste (e.g., scrap metal, tires, paper
products, general refuse, and scrap wood), untreated paint sludge, grease and oil, and paper type
filters for separating PCBs from oils to be reused in electrical transformers. Waste products from
metal plating operations, painting operations, battery acid containers, pesticide and herbicide
containers, asbestos containing materials, and ethylene glycol were also disposed of at the
landfill during the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. Hazardous was not disposed of in the landfill after
October 1980, when TEADs Hazardous Waste Management Plan was implemented.
t1
I
The Pesticide Disposal Area, SWMU 12 is located within the boundaries of SWMU 15.
SWMU 12 consists of a trench where drums and containers containing residual amounts of
pesticides were drained prior to disposal. This activity was reported to have ceased in the early
1980s.
In 1993, TEAD was instructed by the Utah Departrnent of Environmental Quality
(UDEQ) to complete site closure as part of the RCRA Post Closure activities. In addition, at the
time of landfill closure, a determination was made that the requirements in Utah Administative
Code (UAC) R3l5-302-3 and its parts would apply, and that corrective action would be
implemented under TEAD's Post Closure Monitoring and Corrective Action Permit.
2.6.2 Site Investigations
During previous investigations, groundwater, soil gas, and soil samples - surface and
subsurface were collected to detennine if contamination existed on the site as a result of historic
disposal activities. COCs for the site were identified by comparing the maximum concentration
of each COPC identified in the Phase II RFI Report to its respective quantitative CAO. Based on
this evaluation, the COCs for surface soil at SWMU l2ll5 were detennined to be arsenic,
chromium, dieldrin, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) including
benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene. The
COCs identified for subsurface soil at SWMU l2ll5 are arsenic, benzo(a)pyrene, and
dibenz(a,h)anthracene. TCE was also detected in groundwater at SWMU 12/15, at a maximum
concentrations exceeding 850 pglL, and has also been identified as a COC for the site.
2.6.3 Site Risk
The human health RA conducted on SWMJ 12115 considered the hypothetical residential
scenario even though there are plans to use the site for other that military/industrial purposes.
Under the current and reasonably anticipated future military land use scenario, no excess
cancer risks above 1x104 or an HI above 1.0 were identified at the site. Under the construction
worker scenario, no excess cancer risks above lxl0a were identified. However, and HI above
1.0 was identified.
Under the hypothetical future residential land use scenario, cancer risks greater that
lxl0-6 and an HI greater than 1.0 were identified.
The site-wide ecological risk assessment determined that compounds detected in soil at
SWMU 12/15 poterfiially present an unacceptable ecological condition, but these compounds are
not pervasive.

2.6,4 Current Land Use
The current land use for SWMU l2ll5. The site is located within the boundaries of the
installations administrative area. The site is closed and no longer used for disposal purposes.
2.6.5 Future Land Use
There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU l2ll5. The use of the site will
remain industrial.
2.6.6 Corrective Measures
Corrective measures implemented at SWMU 12/15 linc}uded improvements to the soiV
vegetative cover, and groundwater monitoring. In addition to these activities, ICs in the fonn of
LUCs were implemented as part of the corrective measure for this site. The LUCs are intended
to prohibit future residential use or development of the site. These corrective measures were
designed to mitigate human health risk posed by direct contact to the contaminants found in the
surface and subsurface soils at the site. Groundwater contaminants underlying the site are being
addressed under the depot-wide groundwater investigation that also includes SWMUs 2, the
industrial waste lagoon and ditches, and 58, the industrial area ground water sources and
northeast boundary plume.
Specific elements of the corrective measures implemented at SWMU 12115 included
excavating native soil from non-impacted areas within the SWMU to use as cover material;
collecting loose surface litter and consolidating it at specified low areas; covering exposed debris
and consolidated surface litter at selected sites with approximately 24 in. of soil; re-seeding areas
of disturbed soil; repairing the SWMU 12115 boundary fence; and inspecting and maintaining the
landfill cover on an annual basis. Fieldwork associated with implementation of the corrective
measures was completed in October 2005.
2.6.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
This inspection addressed only the implementation of land use controls. The inspection
maintenance and repair of other ICs (engineering controls) is conducted on an annual basis by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The results of that inspection are documented in a separate
report during the fall of each fall.
A visual inspection of SWMU 12/15 (figare 10) was conducted on March 17, 2008. The
site remains under confrol of the Army. The compost and seed that were applied upon
completion of the corrective measures at the site, have resulted in a significant growth of
vegetation. The vegetative cover is now well established and is functioning as intended to
prevent any erosion of the site. The site remains fenced with locked gates that are controlled by
the TEAD Environmental OfIice limiting access to the site. Inspection of the site fencing and
l3
signage is conducted annually and is known to remain in good condition. Land Use Controls
implemented as part of the corrective measure for this site remain protective. No residential use
or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.7 SWMU 19 - AED Demilitarization Test Facilitv
2.7.1 SiteBackground
The AED Demilitarization Test Facility was constructed in 1973, and is located
southwest of the ammunition storage area in a remote and undeveloped area of TEAD. It
consists of six small buildings, two burning pans, and a series of protective earthen revetments.
Operations at SWMU 19 include experimental or pilot testing to determine if new design
demilitarization equipment is functional, and to develop operational procedures and techniques
for ammunition maintenance, handling and demilitarization equipment that is designed and built
at TEAD. Live ammunition and propellants are commonly utilized at the site during , which has
included propagation tests, function tests, barricade testing for explosive lines, and burning in
pans.
2.7.2 Site Investigations
Surface and subsurface soil samples were collected at the site to detennine if
contamination of the site had resulted for historical test and evaluation operations conducted on
the site. Metals were detected in surface soil at levels exceeding background concentrations and
were identified as COPCs. Explosives and SVOCs were also detected in surface soil, and were
identified as COPCs. No contaminants were detected at concentrations exceeding background
concentrations in subsurface soil.
2.7.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target
the hypothetical future on site residential child and adult receptors, as well
both receptors. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for the
reasonably anticipated future industial or construction worker receptors.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in
present a moderate ecological risk.

There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU 19. The test and evaluation
activities being conducted on the site will continue for the foreseeable future.
2.7.6 Corrective Measures
No COCs were identified in soil samples at SWMU 19. Therefore, considering the
results of the human health RA, ICs in the form of LUCs were selected as the corrective measure
for this site. The LUCs are intended to prohibit future residential use or development of the site.
2.7.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 19 (figure 11) on March 13,2008. The
site remains an active military test facility where experimental or pilot testing is done to
detennine if new design demilitarization equipment is functional, and to develop operational
procedures and techniques. The area surrounding the facility remains undeveloped, and is used
primarily for grazrng. Land Use Controls implemented as the corrective measure at this site
remain protective. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.8 SWMU 20 - AED Deactivation tr'urnace Site
2.8.1 Site Background
The AED Deactivation Furnace Site (SWMU 20), is located in the eastern portion of the
installation, along the road that links the AED Demilitarization Test Facility (SWMU 19) and the
Bomb Shell Reconditioning Bldg (SWMU 23). The facility has been active since 1970. The site
includes Buildings 1351, 1352, 1355,1356 and former building 1354. However, only buildings
1351 and 1352 are related to site activities. This facility is used to test demilitarization
procedures for various munitions; it is not used as a production facility. Building 1351 includes a
deactivation furnace (rotary-kiln type), a flashing furnace and a large pollution contol system
(installed n 1976). Building 1352 is a small storage building. The entire facility sits on an
asphalt pad approximately 200 by 225 ft in size. The asphalt pad is approximately 3 inches
thick, underlain by a gravel base course approximately 9 inches thick. A small area of the
western corner of the asphalt surface was once used to store drummed residue, and is referred to
as the former Hazardous Waste Holding Area. The project site is surrounded by a four-foot high
barbed wire security fence, with trvo metal gates providing access from the adjacent road

contamination of the site had resulted for test and evaluation operations conducted on the site.
Antimony and lead were detected in surface soil at levels exceeding background concentrations
and were identifred as COPCs.
2.8.3 Site Risk
The human health RA conducted at the site determined that there were no elevated cancer
risks or hazardous for the military or construction worker on the site. However, elevated risks,
hazards, and blood lead levels were identified for the hypothetical future onsite resident.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil and SWMU 20
present a moderate ecological risk.
2.8.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 20 remains industrial. The site remains active and
continues to be used for evaluation and testing of ammunition handling and demilitarization
systems.
2.8.5 Future Land Use
There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU 20. The test and evaluation
activities being conducted on the site will continue for the foreseeable future.
2.8.6 Corrective Measures

along with implementing land use controls prohibiting the residential use of development of the
site.
2.8.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
This inspection addressed only the implementation of land use controls. The
inspection maintenance and repair of other ICs is conducted on an annual basis by the U.S. Arrry
Corps of Engineers. The results of that inspection are documented in a separate report each fall.
t6
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 20 (figure 12) on March 13, 2008. The
site remains an active military test facility where experimental or pilot testing is done to
detennine if new design demilitarization equipment is functional, and to develop operational
procedures and techniques. In the surrmer of 2007, a underground heating oil tank located on
the site was closed and removed. The tank was located in an area east of the portion of the site
where contaminated soil was covered with an asphalt cap. Closure and removal of the tank had
no impact on the implemented corrective measures. The area surrounding the facility remains
undeveloped, and is used primarily for grazrng. Land Use Controls implemented as a component
of the corrective measure at this site remain protective. No residential use or development of the
site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.9 SWMU 21 - Ammo Deactivation Furnace Site
2.9.1 Site Background
The Ammo Deactivation Furnace Site is an arnmunition demilitarization production
facility constructed about 1955. It occupies 0.7 acre in the southwestern portion of TEAD and
currently operates under a RCRA Part B permit. The areas that are being proposed for corrective
measures were contaminated prior to the facility becoming a perrnitted unit. Current operations
do not add to the previous conta:nination. Building 1320 contains a rotary-kiln fumace that is
used to deactivate small arms ammunition, primers, and fuses. Air pollution contol equipment
was installed around 1975 to treat emissions from the furnace. Incinerator residue (ash and metal
debris) is collected at the south end of the furnace and loaded into 55-gallon drums for temporary
storage. Open staging areas for support equipment and drums are located around the outside of
the building. These areas are partly paved with asphalt and partly covered with gravelly soil.
2.9.2 Site Investigations
Soil samples were collected at analyzed at the site to detennine if contamination of the
site existed from historical operations. Elevated levels of metals, dioxins/furans and explosives
were identified as COPCs in surface soil.
2.9.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified unacceptable cancer risks for hypothetical future onsite
adult residents. Elevated HIs were identified for hlpothetical future onsite child residents,
current Depot personnel, and future construction workers. In addition, all projected blood lead
levels were greater than the CDC target of 10 pgldl-.
The sitewide ecological risk assessment determined that SWMU 2l poses a potentially
unacceptable ecological risk.
t7
2.9.4 Cwrent Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 21 remains industrial. The site remains active and
continues to be used for evaluation and testing of ammunition handling and demilitaization
systems. The deactivation furnace located on the site has undergone several
modifications/upgrades over the past year. Some of these upgrades have resulted in the need to
cut into the asphalt cap. All soil and asphalt removed during these upgrades has been managed as
a hazardous waste. The asphalt cap has been repaired and maintained to ensure the effectiveness
of the cap.
2.9.5 Future Land Use
There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU 21. The conventional ammunition
demilitarization activities being conducted on the site will continue for the foreseeable future.
2.9.6 Corrective Measures

for the consisted of placing an asphalt cap over the areas where unacceptable contamination was
present, along with implementing land use controls prohibiting the residential use of
development of the site.
2.9.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
This inspection addressed only the implementation of land use controls. The
inspection maintenance and repair of other ICs is conducted on an annual basis by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers. The results of that inspection are documented in a separate report each fall.
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 21 (frgure 13) on March 13, 2008. The
site remains an active military conventional arnmunition demilitaization facility which is
operated under a RCRA Part B permit for the demilitarization of small arms and other
ammunition components. The area surrounding the facility remains undeveloped, and is used
primarily for grazing. Land Use Controls implemented as a component of the corrective
measure at this site remain protective. No residential use or development of the site has
occurred, nor is it planned.
2.10 SWMU 25 - Batterv Shop
2.10.1 Site Background
The Battery Shop, located in Building L252, was used for the maintenance and repair of
vehicle and forklift batteries from 1980 to 1993. Site features included two wash-down pads
(wooden and metal) located northeast of Building 1252, a discharge pipe from the building, and
a drainage ditch used to collect wash-down water from the pads as well as discharge from the
Battery Shop.
Spend battery acid and wash-down water were discharged to the ditch through site
operations. Beginning in 1982, these liquids were neutralized with sodium bicarbonate or
sodium hydroxide. The shop floor was washed down daily using sodium bicarbonate, which was
discharge to the ditch until 1990.
2.10.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations conducted at this site consisted of the collection of sediment,
surface and subsurface soil samples. Metals were detected in near surface soil in the drainage
ditch area at levels exceeding background concentrations and were identified as COPCs.
2.10.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identifred cancer risks greater than the target value of lx10-6 for
the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors, and elevated HIs for both
receptors. Elevated His were identified for the actual current and likely future depot personnel.
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil at this SWMU
did not present an unacceptable ecological risk.
2.10.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 25 remains industrial. Currenfly no activities are being
conducted on the site.
2.10.5 Future Land Use
The future anticipated land use at SWMU 25 will remain industrial.
2.10.6 Corrective Measures
Metals were identified as COCs in near-surface soils. Concentrations of these metals
were present at maximum concqrtrations above their respective CAO. Therefore, considering
19
the results of the human health RA, corrective measures implemented at the site consisted of the
excavation of contaminated soil and off-site disposal at a permitted TSDF. In addition to the soil
removal, ICs in the form of LUCs have been applied to the site to prevent future reside'ntial use
and development of the site.
2.10.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
An visual site inspection of SWMU 25 (figure 14) was conducted on March 13, 2008.
The site is fenced with waming signage. The site remains under contol of the Anny and is
undeveloped. During implementation of corrective measures, the area of excavation was
compacted but not re-seeded. Natural revegetation of the site is occurring, but at a slow rate.
There are no indications of significant erosion on the site, even though vegetative cover of the
site is minimal.
2.11 SWMU 26 - DRMO Storase Yard
2.ll.l Site Background
The DRMO Storage yard is located within the BRAC parcel in the former TEAD
industrial area. It is a 66-acre salvage yard loeated in the eastern section of the former TEAD
industrial area. The site is flat and unpaved, with fencing around the perimeter. SWMU 26 was
historically used by TEAD for the temporary storage of surplus military materials. The site
became active between 1953 and 1959.
2.11.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at the site consisted of the collection of surface and subsurface
soil samples. Metals were detected in surface soil at levels exceeding background concentrations
and were identified as COPCs. VOCs and SVOCs were also detected in surface soil, and were
identified as COPCs.
2.11.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1x10-6 for
the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors, and elevated HIs for both
receptors. In addition, the percentage of future residential child receptors exceeding the CDC
blood lead levels guideline for lead in soil was greater than the target. No elevated cancer risks
or HIs were identified for the actual current and reasonably anticipated future industrial worker,
or for the future construction worker receptor.
20
O 2.11.4 Current Land Use
The current land use at SWMU 26 is industrial. The majority of the site is currently
being used for storage by multiple Utah Industrial Depot tenants. Smaller areas of the site are
being utilized as an automobile wrecking yard.
2.11.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use on SWMU 26. The reasonably anticipated future
land use for the DRMO Yard will remain industrial.
2.11.6 Corrective Measures
PAHs were identified as COCs in surface soil at SWMU 26,btt at concentration only
slightly above corresponding CAOs and in one isolated sample. The EPCs for the PAH are at
levels such that they do not pose a risk to an industrial worker. Thus, the corrective measures
implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed restrictions
imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed restrictions
have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed
restrictions on the BRAC properly are governed by the associated environmental covenants,
conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
2.11.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection of the former DRMO Storage Yard, SWMU 26 (figures 15) was
conducted on March 11,2008. The site is currently utilized for industrial and commercial
storage. Activities on the site include a vehicle wrecking yard, storage of miscellaneous
industrial equipment. The area surrounding SWMU 26 to the norttr, east and south remains
undeveloped. Warehouse storage west of the site is maintained by the Army through a lease
back agreement with Utah Industrial Depot for 6 warehouses. Deed restrictions implemented as
the corrective measure at this site remain protective. Tooele City zoning identifies the site for
industrial use. No residential use or development of the site has occured, nor is it planned.
2.12 SWMU 29 - Drum Storase Area
2.12.1 Site Background
SWMU 29 is located on the BRAC parcel in the forrrer TEAD industrial area. The site
was used to store empty drums prior to being returned to the originating supplier of the contents.
The drums were reportedly stored upside down to allow residual material to drain from the
container. SWMU 29 consists of two distinct separate areas. The norlhem section of SWMU 29
2t
is a triangle shaped area of approximately 5 acres. A 1953 aerial photograph of this area shows
drums stored in the area, while aerial photographs taken in 1959 and, 1966 indicate that the
drums were removed and the area was unoccupied. The southern section of SWMU 29 covers
approximately 25 acres and is primarily covered with gravel and broken asphalt. Three buildings
(Buildings 576, 589, and 591) exist on the site. Aerial photographs taken in 1953, 1959, 1966
and 1981 all show the presence of drums, cylinders, tank trucks, and lumber. Additionally, on
the 1959 and 1966 aerial photographs, a portion of the southem section was labeled as the
"pesticide storage lof'.
2.12.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at SWMU 29 consisted of the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Metals were detected in the surface and subsurface soil at levels
exceeding background concentrations and were identified as COPCs. Also, SVOCs, pesticides,
and TPH were identified as COPC in surface and subsurface soil.
2.12.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1xl0-6 for
the hypothetical future onsite residential child and adult receptors,'and elevated HIs for both
recqrtors. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for the current and likely future
industrial worker, or for the future construction worker receptors.
2.12.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 29 remains industrial. Building 589, located on the
southern portion of the SWMU is currently leased by the Army for mission related activities.
2.12.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 29. The reasonable anticipated future
land use remains industial.
2.12.6 Corrective Measures
One PAH was identified as a COC in surface soil at SWMU 29,btt at a concentration
only slightly above corresponding CAOs, and in one isolated sample. The EPC for the PAH is at
a level such that it does not pose a risk to an industrial worker. Thus, the corrective measures
implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed restictions
imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed restrictions
have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed
22
restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental covenants,
conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
2.12.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection of SWMU 29,the Drum Storage Area (figure 16) was conducted
on March 11, 2008. From the time of transfer of this site in 1998 through2004, the South area
of SWMU 29 was utilized by the Army through a leaseback agreement as a recycling center. In
2004, recycling activities conducted on the site were terminated, and all recyclable materials
were removed from the site. In 2005, the Army used building 587, located on the site as an
asserrbly area for 5 ton truck annor kits that were being fabricated by TEAD. There were not
Army mission activities being conducted on the site at the time of this inspection. The site
remains under the control of the Army through the lease back agreement. The north section of
SWMU 29 remains undeveloped. Deed restrictions implemented as the corrective measure at
this site remain protective. The site is currently zoned by Tooele City for industrial use. No
residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.13 SWMU 34 - Pesticide Handline and Storase Area
2.13.1Site Background
The Pesticide Hapdling and Storage Area consist of building 518 and a bermed concrete
pad on the south side of the building. This SWMU is located in the administration area of the
active portion of TEAD. The facility is surrounded and secured by a chain-link fence. The area
enclosed by the fence is approximately 75 by 75 feet (0.13 acres). Building 518 was used from
1942 arfil the mid 1990s for the storage of pesticides and herbicides, and for the preparation of
application mixtures. The bermed concrete pad was used for loading sprayer trucks with these
mixtures and for rinsing containers. From about 1980 to 1989, pesticide wastes from operational
activities at SWMU 34 were disposed of at an offsite TSDF. Drains from building 518
reportedly connected to an 8 inch underground pipe that discharged to the Storm Water
Discharge Area (SWMU 45).
2.13.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigation conducted at SWMU 34 consisted of the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Metals and pesticides were detected in both surface and subsurface soil
and were identified as COPCs.
2.13.3 Site Risk
23
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1x10-6 for
hypothetical future onsite adult residents, and an elevated HI for hypothetical future onsite child
residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for current Depot personnel and future
constructions workers. In addition, all projected blood lead levels were below the CDC target of
10 pg/dl-.
2.13.4 Current Land Use
The current use of SWMU 34 is industrial. Building 518, located on the site is utilized
for storage purposes. Application and mixing of pesticides for TEAD is currently conducted by
a contract company. Small quantities of pre-mix materials are periodically stored in the building.
Drains in the building have been plugged to prevent further releases.
2.13.5 Future Land Use
There are no planned changes in land use for SWMU 34. Continued industrial storage
activities are expected to continue at the site for the foreseeable future.
2.13.6 Corrective Measures
At SWMU 34, metals and pesticides were identified and COCs in surface soil. Although
the EPCs for pesticides were greater than their CAOs, the resulting human health risks were
determined to be acceptable. Nevertheless, because of the presence of several "hotspots" where
the concentrations of the COCs exceeded their CAOs by an order of magnitude, and considering
the results of the RA, corrective measures implemented at the site consisted of the excavation of
contaminated soil and off-site disposal of the soil at a permitted TSDF. In addition to the soil
removal, ICs in the fonn of LUCs have been applied to the site to prevent future residential use
and development of the site.
2.13.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 34 (figure 17) on March 17, 2008. The
site remains an active army facility used for storage of small quantities of herbicides and
pesticides. There is no indication of any spills or releases at the site. The surrounding area
consists of industrial type activities which include a fabrication shop, roads and grounds storage
yard, and carpenter shop. Land use controls implemented as part of he corrective measures for
this site remain protective. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it
planned.
2.14 SWMA 37 - Contaminated Waste Processor
24
2.14.1 Site Background
The CWP consists of one large building (Building 1325), a smaller storage building, and
adjacent staging and storage areas. The furnace, used to burn waste, was fired by heating oil
from an underground storage tank located south of the building. The facility itself, including the
surrounding paved staging areas, is approximately 150 feet by 125 feet in size. A four-foot high
barbed wire fence surrounds the facility. Since its installation in approximately 1980 and until it
was closed in 1990, the CWP was primarily used for flashing scrap metal and incinerating
pentachlorophenol (PCP)-treated wooden crates, general packaging materials (dunnage), scrap
resins, and fabric contaminated with explosives. This CWP was a batch-type basket furnace,
rather than a rotary kiln type used elsewhere at TEAD. In addition, the CWP was not used for
demilitarization of munitions. Air pollution control equipment, installed during construction of
the furnace, included a cyclone, gas cooler, and bag-house. When the CWP was operating, all
metal debris were certified as clean and sent to the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office
(DRMO) storage yard for salvage. Incinerator ash, cyclone dust, and bag-house dust were
drummed as hazardous waste and sent to the 90-day Storage Yard pending analysis and disposal.
2.14.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at SWMU 37 consisted of the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Metals, SVOCs, dioxins/furans were identified as COPCs.
2.14.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1x10-6 for
hypothetical future onsite adult residents, and an elevated HI for hypothetical future onsite child
residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for current Depot personnel or future
construction workers. Blood lead levels were not evaluated for any receptor at SWMU 37.
2.14.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 37 remains industrial. The fumace which was previously
installed in the facility for buming and flashing dunnage has been removed from the building.
2.14.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use at SWMU 37. The site will continue to be
utilized for Depot mission activities for the foreseeable future.
2.14.6 Corrective Measures
25
At SWMU 37 SVOCs and dioxins/furans were identified as COCs in surface soil. The
SVOC EPC exceeded the CAO. However the SVOCs were only detected in 2 of 27 samples,
with only on sample exceedi.g the CAO. The EPC for dioxins/furans was only slightly greater
than its CAO. Therefore, considering the results of the human health RA, ICs in the fonn of
LUCs were selected as the corrective measure for this site. The LUCs are intended to prohibit
future residential use or development of the site.
2.14.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 37 (frgure 18) on March 13, 2008. The
site is currently an active facility being utilized for ammunition recycling operations. During the
inspection there were no signs of spills or releases at the site. Vegetation surrounding the area is
healthy and has not been stressed. There is no planned change in land use at the site. The land
use controls implemented as the corrective measure at the site remain protective. No residential
use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.15 SWMU 42 - Bomb Washout Facilitv. Buildinq 539
2.15.1 Site Background
The Bomb Washout Facility is located in the southeastern portion of TEAD, north of the
Administration Area. Until recently, it was used for storage. The building previously contained a
demilitarization furnace for small anns munitions. From the early 1940s to 1960, projectiles
from small arms were bumed in the furnace; lead was reclaimed in troughs located beneath the
fumace. Because the smokestack did not have air pollution contuols, heavy particulates setfled
into a "drop-out box" located on the roof. The furnace was dismantled in 1960. When Building
539 was cleaned, washwater was discharged via a steel-lined concrete flume that extends from
the northeast corner of the building. The flume runs east-west approximately 10 feet north of the
building and discharges to an open ditch to.the west. The ditch extends approximately 600 feet to
a fonner unlined holding pond south of the main line railroad tracks. The pond, which is
currently overgrown, is 50 feet in diameter and 1 to 2 feet deep.
2.15.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at SWMU 42 consisted of the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Metals and explosives were identified as COPCs in surface and
subsurface soil. Dioxins/furans were identified as COPCs in surface soil only. Munitions
components were also encountered during site investigations.
2.1,5.3 Site Risk
26
The human health RA identified unacceptable cancer risks for hypothetical future onsite
adult residents. Elevated HIs were identified for hypothetical future onsite child residents,
current Depot personnel, and future construction workers. In addition, all projected blood lead
levels were greater than the CDC target of 10 mg/dl.
The ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil at SWMU 42 present a
potentially unacceptable ecological risk.
2.15.4 Current Land Use
There is no anticipated change of land use at SWMU 42. The site will remain under the
control of the military for foreseeable future. Additional investigations of the site along with
possible removal actions will be completed under the Army military munitions response program
as munitions components have been identified on the site.
2.15.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use at SWMU 42. The site will continue to be
utilized for Depot mission activities for the foreseeable future.
2.15.6 Corrective Measures
This corrective measures alternative implemented at SWMU 42 consists of the
installation and annual inspection/repair of a soil cover cap and liner over the areas of soil
contamination to prevent human exposure and contaminant migration, site fencing and signage,
and land use controls prohititing residential uso or development of the site. Contaminated soil
from several isolated hot spots was excavated and placed within the former holding pond area
and covered.
2.15.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
This inspection addressed only the implementation of land use controls. The inspection
maintenance and repair of other ICs is conducted on an annual basis by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. The results of that inspection are documented in a separate report each fall.
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 42 (figtxe 19) on March 17, 2008. The
site is located in an undeveloped area of the installation, that in the past has been utilized
intennittently for grazing. In the fall of 2006, the soil cover cap was revegetated using a
compost and seed mix. Germination of the seed and the establishment of a vegetative cover has
been slow due to low amounts of precipitation. Even though establishment of a vegetative cover
has been slow, minimal erosion of the soil cover has occurred. Vegetation surrounding the area
that was covered is healthy and has not been stressed. There is no planned change in land use at
27
the site. The land use controls implemented as the corrective measure at the site remain
protective. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.16 SWMU 45 - Storm Water Discharqe Area
2.16.1, Site Background
The Storm Water Discharge Area occupies roughly 2 acres and is located approximately
2500 feet northwest of the TEAD administration area. It consists of an unlined earthen basin as
associated pipelines from the administration area's storm water collection system. Storm water
has been discharged to SWMU 45 since TEAD's constructionh1942. The storm drain system
consists of approximately 10,000 linear feet of subsurface pipelines. Although no industrial
operations have been conducted on the site, the discharge area has historically received
discharges from a carpenter shop, sign shop, motor pool, rail shop, and other such operations.
2.16.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations consisted of the collection of surface water, sediment, surface
soil, and subsurface soil samples. Metals were ide,ntified as COPCs in surface and subsurface
soil. Other COPCs include inorganics, SVOCs, and VOCs in surface water, and metals in
sediment.
2.16.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identified cancer risks greater than the target value of 1xl0-6 for
hypothetical future onsite adult residents, and an elevated HI for hypothetical future onsite child
residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for current Depot personnel or future
construction workers. In addition, the projected blood lead level for hypothetical future child
residents is greater than the CDC target of 10 pgldl-.
The ecological RA concluded that the site poses a moderate ecological risk, but the risk is
not unacceptable, and does not warrant corrective measures to reduce the ecological risk. The
ecological RA also concluded that corrective measures, if performed, would damage valuable
wildlife habitat.
2.16.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 45 is industrial. The site still acts as a stonn water outfall
that is managed under the installation storm water pollution prevention program.
28
2.16.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 45. The reasonably anticipated future
use of the site will remain industrial for the foreseeable future.
2.16.6 Corrective Measures
No COCs were identified at SWMU 45. Therefore, considering the results of the human
health RA, ICs in the form of LUCs were selected as the corrective measure for this site. The
LUCs are intended to prohibit future residential use or development of the site.
2.16.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection of SWMU 45 (figure 20) was conducted on March 17,2008. The
site remains under contol of the Army. The outfall collects storm water discharged from the
Tooele Army Depot Administration Area. Discharge from the outfall to the collection area is
managed through the installations stonn water discharge permit. Routine sarnpling is conducted
under the requirements of this permit. Vegetation at the site is healthy and shows no signs of
sfress.
2.1.7 SWMU 46. Used Oit Dumnster (Buitdinq 611)
2.17.1 Site Background
The used oil dumpster located at the northern end of building 611, located on the BRAC
parcel was used to collect waste oil from maintenance operations. The dumpster was routinely
emptied, and the oil was taken offsite for disposal.
2.17.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations consisted of the collection of surface and subsurface soil samples.
At building 6ll, metals were detected in surface soil at levels exceeding background
concentrations, and were identified as COPCs. VOCs, SVOCs, and TPH were identified ad
COPCs in surface soil, and VOCs and TPHC were identified as COPCs in subsurface soil.
2.17.3 Site Risk
The human health RA identifred no cancer risks for any receptor at the building 6ll
dumpster location. It did however, identiff an elevated HI for the hypothetical future residential
child receptor.
29
The site wide ecological RA concluded that the COPCs detected in soil at this dumpster
area presented a low ecological risk.
2.17.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of the dumpster location at building 611 is industrial. Building 611
is currenfly unoccupied and not in use. The dumpster has been removed, and no waste oil
collection is being conducted at site.
2.17.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use at the SWMU 46 location.
2.17.6 Corrective Measures
Two COCs were identified in surface soil samples at this dumpster location. TPHC was
identified in several surface soil samples at concenffations exceeding Utah's 10,000 pg/g
screening level. Metals were also detected at a maximum concentration exceeding the
corresponding CAO. Therefore, considering the results of the human health RA, corrective
measures implemented at the site consisted of the excavation of contaminated soil and off-site of
the soil at a permitted TSDF. In addition to the soil removal, ICs in the form of LUCs have been
applied to the site to prevent future residential use and development of the site.
2.17.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 46, building 611 (figure 2l) on March
17,2008. Building 611 is currently unoccupied and not being used. The used oil dumpster
located at the north end of building 611 has been removed from the site. The area surrounding
building 611 is currently being used for industrial purposes. Deed restrictions implemented as
part of the corrective the corrective measure at this site remain protective. Tooele City zoning of
the site is industrial. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it
planned.
2.18 SWMU 48. Old Dispensarv
2.1E.1 Site Background
The Old Dispensary, building 400 was located approximately 300 feet northwest of the
existing TEAD medical clinic. Building 400 was located on approximately 8.2 acres, and was
30
demolished when the current medical facility was constructed in the early 1980s. Building 400,
and other smaller buildings located on the site were constructed in 1945, and originally served as
the installations administrative building. Building 400 was later converted to a dispensary
(medical facility) and included operating rooms, a sterilization room, X-ray rooms, examination
rooms, and a dental office. Discharges of X-ray development solutions were reportedly
discharged to the storm water collection system located on the property.
2.18.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at SWMU 48 consisted of the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Metals, pesticides, and SVOCs were identified as COPCs in shallow
soil.
2.1E.3 Site Risk

2.19 SWMU 49 - Storm Water/Industrial Waste Water Pipine
2.19.1 Site Background
SWMU 49 is located on the BRAC parcel in the former TEAD industrial area. The
SWMU consists of the existing storn water system piping and outfalls located throughout the
fonner industrial area. The site also includes building 609, a former steam cleaning and radiator
repair facility located in the southern section of the fonner industrial area. The storm water
system includes approximately 15,000 feet of interconnected pipes. The main arteries run east to
west. Secondary pipes run perpendicular to the main arteries and interconnect at road
intersections throughout the area. From the late 1940s until 1988, the piping system collected
industrial waste water, commingling it with storm water. Because of the large area occupied by
the storm water/industrial waste water piping, SWMU 49 was evaluated as nine separate areas as
listed below:
Sewer Line - Southern Area
Sewer Line - Cental Area
Sewer Line -Northerr Area
Building 609
B Avenue Outfall
G Avenue Outfall
H Avenue Outfall
J Avenue Outfall
K Avenue Outfall
2.19.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations conducted at SWMU 49 consisted of the collection of sediment,
surface soil, and subsurface soil samples.
. In the Sewer Line - Southem Area, Sewer Line - Central Area, and Sewer Line -
Northern Area metals and SVOCs were identified as COPCs. Surface soils were not evaluated,
and the piprng system is located below ground, and any release would have occured in the
subsurface.
32
At Building 609, metals and VOCs were identified as COPCs in surface soil, and SVOCs
were identified as COPCs in subsurface soil.
Metals and SVOCs were identified as COPCs in surface soil at the B Avenue Outfall, G
Avenue Outfall, H Avenue Outfall, and K Avenue Outfall. No COPCs were identified in
subsurface soil.
At the J Avenue Outfall, SVOCs were identified as COPCs in surface soil. No COPCs
were identified in subsurface soil.
2.19.3 Site Risk
The human health RA conducted on the Sewer Line - Southern'Area, Sewer Line -
Central Area, and Sewer Line Northern Area identified elevated HIs for onsite adult and child
residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identifred for future construction workers. In
addition, risks and hazards were not calculated for actual current and anticipated future industrial
use, because these receptors are exposed to surface soil only, and surface soil was not analyzed
in this area. No ecological RA was performed for these area, and surface soils were not
evaluated.
At Building 609, then"-* health RA identified elevated HIs for onsite adult and child
residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for current and future industrial
workers, or future construction workers. No ecological RA was perforned for Building 609 as
suitable ecological habitat does not exist.
At the B Avenue Outfoll, the human health RA identified elevated cancer risks and His
for onsite adult and child residents. No elevated cancer risks or His were identified for actual
and future industrial workers or future construction workers. In addition the projected blood lead
level for child residents is greater that the CDC target of l0pg/dl. All other blood lead levels
are below the target value. The site wide ecological RA classified the I Avenue Outfall, as
presenting a moderate but not unacceptable ecological risk.
At the G Avenue Outfall, H Avenue Outfall, J Avenue Outfall, and K Avenue Outfall, the
human health RA identified elevated cancer risks and His for onsite adult and child residents.
No elevated cancer risks or His were identified for actual and future industuial workers or future
construction workers. The site wide ecological RA classified the B Avenue Outfall, H Avenue
Outfa.ll, J Avenue Outfall, and K Avenue Outfoll, as presenting a moderate but not unacceptable
ecological risk.
2.19.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 49 is industrial. The former TEAD industrial area,
excess under BRAC 93 is being redeveloped and a commercial industrial park.
33
2.19.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 49. Redevelopment of the area as and
industrial park will continue for the foreseeable future.
2.19.6 Corrective Measures
Metals were identified as a COC in subsurface soil at the Sewer Line - Southern Area.
However, lead was detected above its CAO in one subsurface soil sample only, and the EPC for
lead in subsurface soil was well below the screening level. Thus, the corrective measures
implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed restrictions
imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed restrictions
have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed
restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental covenants,
conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
Two SVOCs were identified and COCs in subsurface soil at the Sewer Line - Central
Area. However, both were detected at maximum concentrations only slightly above
corresponding CAOs and at two locations only. The EPCs for both SVOCs are below their
CAOs. Therefore, the corrective measures implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of
deed restrictions. The deed restrictions imposed are intended to prevent residential use or
development of the site. The deed restrictions have been incorporated in the property deed for
this site, and are legally binding. Deed restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the
associated environmental covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
No COCs were identified at the Sewer Line - Northern Area, Building 609, B Avenue
Outfoll, H Avenue Outfall, J Avgnue Outfoll, or K Avenue Outfall. Therefore, the corrective
measures implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed
restrictions imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed
restrictions have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding.
Deed restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental
covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
Three SVOCs were identified as COCs in surface soil at the G Avenue Outfall. The
EPCs for each exceeded their respective CAOs in five out of six samples along the outfall ditch.
For this reason, the corrective measures implemented at the site consisted of the excavation and
offsite disposal of contaminated soil, along with ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed
restrictions imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed
restrictions have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding.
Deed restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental
covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).

One SVOC was identified as a COC in surface soil. It was detected at a concentration
only slightly above its CAO and on one sa:rrple location only. The EPC for this contaminant is
below it CAO. No COC were idelrtified in subsurface soil. Therefore, the corrective measures
implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed restrictions. The deed restrictions
imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed restrictions
have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed
restrictions on the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental covenants,
conditions, and restrictions (CCRs).
2.21.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 51 (figure 26) was conducted on March
11, 2008. The site as well as the surrounding area remain undeveloped. Vegetation on the site
appears to be healthy and shows no sign of stress. There are no indication of past excavation or
disturbance of the site. The deed restrictions implemented as the corrective measure for this site
remain protective. The site is currently zoned by Tooele City for Industrial Use. No residential
use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.

2.22 SWMU 52b - Disposal Trenches
2.22.1 Site Background
SWMU 52b is located on the BRAC parcel in the former TEAD administration area. The
disposal trench site consists of a long mounded trench 150 by 40 feet, and several of smaller
mounds. Pieces of construction rubble and debris are present at the surface and buried
throughout the mounded area. The RFI field investigation confirmed that the trenches were
used to dispose of rubble (construction debris).
2.22.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations at this site consisted of the collection of subsurface soil samples.
Metals were detected in subsurface soils and identified as COPCs.
2.22.3 Site Risk
The human health RA for SWMU 52b identifred elevated cancer risks and HIs for
realistic onsite adult and child residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for
future construction workers. In addition, risks and hazards were not calculated for industrial
workers, as these rece,ptors are exposed to surface soil only.
2.22.4 Current Land Use
SWMU 52b is located on a portion of the BRAC parcel which has been designated for
future residential development. The property currently remains undeveloped open land.
2.22.5 tr'uture Land Use
Although the property has been designated for future residential development, there are
no current plans to develop it as such.
2.22.6 Corrective Measures
No COCs were identified in subsurface soil at SWMU 52b. Risks for future adult and
child residents, the realistic future receptors are based on exposure to subsurface soil. The
elevated HIs result forn elevated metals found between 10 and 11.5 feet below ground surface.
Therefore, the corrective measures implemented at the site consist of ICs in the form of deed
restrictions. The deed restrictions imposed are intended to prevent residential use or
development of the site, as well as the excavation of subsurface soil. The deed restrictions have
been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding. Deed restrictions on
the BRAC property are governed by the associated environmental covenants, conditions, and
restrictions (CCRs).
2.22.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 52b (figure 27) on March 77,2008.
The site is located on property excessed under the BRAC 93 action. The site remains
undisturbed. Vegetation at the site appears healthy.
2.23 SWMU 54 - Sandblast Areas (Bldgs 611 and 637)
2.23.1, Site Background
SWMU 54 is located on the BRAC parcel in the former TEAD industrial area. The
SWMU consists of two sites where sandblast operations occurred. Three types of sandblast
media were used at the site (i.e., steel grit, ground walnut shells, and glass beads). The spent
medial had the consistency of fine dust and was collected in sealed hoppers located outside of
each building.
2.23.2 Site Investigations
Previous investigations conducted at SWMU included the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. At Building 611, metals and SVOCs were identified as COPCs in
surface soil, and metals were identified as COPCs in subsurface soil. At Building 637, metals
and SVOCs were identified as COPCs in both surface and subsurface soil.
2.23.3 Site Risk
The human health RA conducted at Building 611, identifred elevated cancer risks, HIs,
and blood lead levels for onsite adult and child residents. In addition, elevated blood lead levels
were identified for current and future industrial workers, as well as fufure construction workers.
At Building 637, the human health RA identified elevated cancer risks and HIs for onsite adult
and child residents. No elevated cancer risks or HIs were identified for current or future
industrial workers, nor for future construction workers. All projected blood lead levels were
below the CDC target of 10 pgldl.
The site wide ecological RA classified SWMU 54 as presenting a low ecological risk.
39
2.23.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 54 is industrial. The SWMU is located on property being
redeveloped as a commercial industrial park.
2.23.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 54. It is expected that the site will
continue to be developed as a commercial industrial park for the foreseeable futrue.
2.23.6 Corrective Measures
Several metals were identified as COCs in surface soil at Building 61l. No COCs were
identifred in subsurface soil. At Building 637, two SVOCs were identified as COCs in surface
soil, though at concentrations only slightly above CAOs and at only two sample locations. No
COCs were identified in subsurface soil. Therefore, the corrective measures implemented at the
site consisted of the excavation and offsite disposal of contaminated soil at Building 61 1, along
with ICs in the form of deed restictions at both Building 611 and Building 637. The deed
restrictions imposed are intended to prevent residential use or development of the site. The deed
restrictions have been incorporated in the property deed for this site, and are legally binding.
Deed restrictions on the BRAC property axe governed by the associated environmental
covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs). In addition to corective measures implemented
under RCRA, corrective actions under the State of Utah Leaking Underground Storage Tank
(LUST) program have been completed or are planned at this site. At the time of the inspection
all required corrective action under the LUST program had been completed with the exception of
the 637 North tank location. Previous remediation of the site has resulting in a significant
reduction in contamination, but additional work will be required. In the spring of 2006, a passive
vent well will be installed at the site to address residual levels of contamination approximately
18'bgs.
2.23.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 54 (figures 28 and 29) was conducted
on March 11, 2008. The site as well as the surrounding area remain undeveloped. The site as
well as the surrounding area is covered with gravel and asphalt. There are no indication of recent
excavation or disturbance of the site. The deed restrictions implemented as the corrective
measnre for this site remain protective. The site is currenfly zond by Tooele City for Industrial
Use. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
2.24 SWMU 56 - Gravel Pit Disposal Area
2.24.1 Site Background
SWMU 56 is located on the BRAC parcel in the forner TEAD industrial area. The
SWMU consists of an area where unknown materials were disposed of by burning, or possible
where burned materials originating at other locations were buried in ffenches throughout the site.
The exact origin of the burned materials, whether they were burned onsite or transferred from
elsewhere is unknown.
2.24.2 Site Investigafions
Previous investigations conducted at SWMU 56 included the collection of surface and
subsurface soil samples. Lead and Thallium were identified as COPCs in surface soil and
subsurface soil. .
2.24.3 Site Risk
The human health RA conducted as part of the CMS identified elevated HIs, and blood
lead levels for onsite adult and child residents. In addition, elevated blood lead levels were
identified for current and future industrial workers, as well as future construction workers.
The site wide ecological RA classified SWMU 56 as presenting a moderate ecological
risk.
2.24.4 Current Land Use
The current land use of SWMU 56 is industrial. The SWMU is located on property being
redeveloped as a commercial industrial park.
2.24.5 Future Land Use
There is no planned change in land use for SWMU 56. It is expected that the site will
continue to be developed as a commercial industrial park for the foreseeable future.
2.24.6 Corrective Measures
Lead and thallium were identified as COCs in surface soil and subsurface soil. The initial
CMS for the site recommended excavation and offsite disposal of contaminated soil in order to
eliminate the risk to all receptor groups allowing the site to be utilized as unrestricted use.
Corrective measures were initiated at the site, and during that time, it was determined that it
4T
would be impracticable to reach clean closure on the site. Additional site chancterization of the
site was completed and a revised corrective measures study completed on the site to deterrnine
the volume of soil which would need to be removed in order to reach industrial cleanup levels. In
the revised CMS it was detennined that cleanup of the site should be to industrial levels, as the
site is located within an area which had previously been restricted to industrial use. In December
2007 conective measures were completed on the site which included the additional removing of
contaminated soil with concentrations of lead exceeding industrial levels, along with the
application of deed restictions prohibiting future residential use or development of the site.
2.24.7 Site Visit and Visual Inspection
A visual site inspection was conducted at SWMU 56 was conducted on March 11, 2008.
The site as well as the surrounding area remain undeveloped. There are no indication of recent
excavation or disturbance of the site, with the exception of the recent work done as part of the
implemented corrective measures. The deed restrictions implemented as part of the corrective
measure for this site remain protective. The site is currently zoned by Tooele City for Industrial
Use. No residential use or development of the site has occurred, nor is it planned.
3.0 CONCLUSIONS
The following conclusions support a determination that the corrective measures
implemented at the SWMUs addressed by this inspection report are protective of human health
and the environment, and that the restrictions and controls placed on sites are functioning as
intended.
Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions placed on sites within the boundaries of the
Utah Industrial Depot have been properly implemented and are functioning
effectively. All actions undertaken by the Utah Industrial Depot that may affect any
of the sites have been coordinated with the Army prior to implementation.
Land use controls placed on sites located on the active portion of the installation
remain effective in preventing residential development of the sites. Land use controls
are documented and maintained in the installations Environmental Management
Systern (EMS).
Access confrols have been effective in preventing the trespassing of unauthorized
personnel at the site. No known instance of trespassing by unauthorized personnel
has been documented to date.
No indicators of potential corrective measures failure were noted during this review.
Costs and maintenance activities have been consistent with estimates developed
during remedy selection.
42
. No additional infonnation has been identified that would call into question the
protectiveness of the implemented corrective measures.
