Langley Air Force Base (AFB) has been an airfield and an
aeronautical research center since 1917 and is the home base
of the 1st Fighter Wing and Headquarters Air Combat
Command. The base was placed on the NPL in May 1994. In
2005, the BRAC Commission recommended Langley AFB for
realignment. Sites at this installation include landfills,
underground storage tanks, a bulk fuel distribution system, and
storm sewers. Investigations have determined that
contaminants are migrating into Tabbs Creek, the Back River,
and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay. The installation formed a
Restoration Advisory Board in FY94. Five-year reviews were
completed in FY01 and FY04 for Spill Site (SS) 61.
To date, the Air Force has identified 57 sites at the installation.
Six bilaterally signed Records of Decision (RODs) and two
unilaterally signed RODs have been signed. The cleanup
progress at Langley AFB for FY02 through FY05 is detailed
below.
In FY02, the installation completed remedial designs (RDs) for
seven sites. The installation also completed a remedial
investigation (RI) for SS 63 and a proposed plan (PP) for Site
OT 55. All fiscal year requirements were met to prepare for the
5-year review at SS 61. The Sites WP 02 and 14 site feasibility
studies (FSs) were completed. Dispute resolution was invoked
concerning the institutional control language used for Langley
Environmental Restoration Program sites.
In FY03, the installation completed a site inspection (SI) for
Areas of Concern (AOCs) 66, 67, and 68, and an FS for Landfill
(LF) 17, Site OT 55, and SS 63. Remedial actions (RAs) for LFs
05, 07, 12, and 18, as well as RDs for Sites WP 02 and 14,
were also completed. In addition, the Air Force closed Site OT
55 and met all fiscal year requirements to prepare for the 5-year
review at SS 61. The installation initiated a no further RA
planned determination for Site OT 55 as recommended by the
RI/FS.
In FY04, Langley AFB completed a 5-year review at SS 61. In
order to put all sites on the same schedule, LFs 05, 07, 10, 12
and 18, and Site FT 41 were added to the 5-year review.
Long-term monitoring for LFs 05, 07, 12 and 18, and Site FT 41
was completed. The installation also completed SIs for three

AOCs, an FS for three sites, and RA-construction (RA-C) for
one site.
In FY05, Langley AFB awarded a 5-year basewide guaranteed
fixed price performance-based contract (PBC). The contract
includes FSs to site closure for Sites WP08, LF 17, OT 25, SS
63, and LF 70, as well as long-term monitoring at Sites LF 05,
LF 07, LF 12, LF 18, FT 41, SS 61, and OT 64. The installation
also developed an NPL delisting strategy as part of the PBC.
Langley AFB began RA at LFs 10 (western lobe) and 11, and
changed the remedy at LF 01 due to proximity to the airfield
and numerous buried utilities. The Defense and State
Memorandum of Agreement cooperative agreement with the
Commonwealth of Virginia was updated and identified levels of
effort by the State through June 2012 in support of the
Installation Restoration Program (IRP). The Air Force began the
preliminary assessments (PAs) for all identified Military
Munitions Response Program (MMRP) sites.
p‰HT2s‚€2€�������
Langley AFB completed interim RAs for SS 61 and Site OT
06A. The installation amended FSs for LF 17 and Site OT 25,
and completed one FS for SS 63. The Air Force issued a
revised PP and ROD amendment for LF 01 and completed
RA-C at LFs 01, 11, and 22. Langley AFB continued long-term
monitoring at Sites LF 05, LF 07, LF 12, LF 18, FT 41, and SS
61. The installation completed the RA at LF 11, completed FSs
at LF 17 and Site OT 25; and drafted RODs and PPs for LF 17,
Site OT 25, and SS 63/Black River Sediments.
Regulatory issues delayed completion of the FS, PP, and ROD
at Site OT 64, as well as the completion of PPs, RODs, RA
work plans, RDs, and RAs at Sites LF 17, OT 25, and SS
63/Black River Sediments.

The installation continued PAs at all identified MMRP sites.
