5.5 Area of the abandoned air-defense station.
5.5.1 Territory of the radar station commandant s office
In the territory of the radar station commandant s office, 9 soil sampes were collected to assess
the level of pollution.
Assessment accoring to the Russian standards
The content of VAH compounds in soils at the site did not exceed tenths of MPC and amounted to:
for benzene - 0.015 mg/kg (up to 0.05 MPC units);
for toluene - 0.026 mg/kg (up to 0.09 MPC units);
for xylenes all values were lower than sensitivity levels for this
analysis method.
Content of benz(a)pyrene reached 0.1307 mg/kg (up to 6.53 MPC units point S04-06-6, site 312).
Content of other analyzed PAH compounds is not established by the Russian standards.
Content of heavy metals reached:
for manganese 618.8 mg/kg (up to 0.41 MPC units point S04-05-5, site 313);
for zinc 125.0 mg/kg (up to 2.27 APC units, point S04-05-5, site 313);
for copper 257.8 mg/kg (up to 7.81 APC units, point S04-07-7, site 316);
for nickel 34.5 mg/kg (up to 1.72 APC units, point S04-05-5, site 313);
for lead 39.2 mg/kg (up to 1.23 MPC units point S04-07-7, site 316);
for cadmium 0.68 mg/kg (up to 1.36 APC units, point S04-01-1, site 321);
for mercury - 0.133 mg/kg (up to 0.06 MPC units point S04-06-6, site 312).
Table 5.2.9 shows the intervals of pollutant content in soils in the surveyed area (pollution class),
performed according to SanPin requirements 2.1.7.1287-03, based on MPC (APC) and content of
controlled pollutants. PC - according to international criteria of environmental assessment
