The Long Beach Naval Complex consists of the Long Beach
Naval Shipyard (NSY), Naval Station (NS) Long Beach, and the
Long Beach Naval Hospital (NAVHOSP). The Long Beach
Naval Complex provided logistics support, construction,
alteration, dry docking, and outfitting of ships and craft. The
BRAC Commission recommended closure of the NAVHOSP,
the NS, and associated housing areas in FY91; closure
occurred in FY94. Closure of the NSY and associated housing
areas was recommended in FY93 and occurred in FY97. NSY
and NS operations that contributed to contamination include
ship and vehicle repair and maintenance, utility maintenance
and operation, support shops, storage of petroleum products
and hazardous materials, laundry and dry cleaning, steam plant
operations, and air compressor operations. Portions of housing
areas associated with the NSY were used to dispose of ship
wastes, drilling mud, and construction debris. In FY94, the Navy
formed a BRAC Cleanup Team (BCT), which completed a
BRAC cleanup plan. The BCT, composed of regulators and the
Local Reuse Authority, meets quarterly. In addition, the Joint
NS and NSY technical review committee was converted to a
Restoration Advisory Board (RAB). The RAB meets regularly.
The Navy completed a 5-year review in FY05.
To date, the installation has completed Records of Decision
(RODs) for Sites 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 13. The
cleanup progress at Long Beach Naval Complex for FY02
through FY05 is detailed below.
In FY02, the installation worked toward completing long-term
operation/long-term management (LTM) for Site 14. The
feasibility studies (FSs) and proposed plans (PPs) for Sites 8,
10, and 11 were completed. The Sites 9, 12, and 13 FSs were
completed. The Navy completed an inventory of Military
Munitions Response Program (MMRP) sites. No MMRP sites
were identified at Long Beach Naval Complex.
In FY03, remedial assessment operations at Sites 1, 2, and 14
continued on schedule. Significant progress was made on the
ROD for Sites 8 and 10; Site 11 was removed from the ROD in
order to facilitate property transfer issues.
In FY04, the installation began LTM operations at Sites 1, 2,
and 14, but did not meet all remedial action (RA) objectives;

additional monitoring was required. The installation completed
the Site 7 FS, Sites 8 and 10 ROD/remedial action plan (RAP);
and Sites 9, 12, and 13 PPs on schedule. The installation
initiated a PP for Site 7 and RODs for Sites 7, 9, 11, 12, and 13.
The draft 5-year review for Sites 1-6A, 14, and Palos Verdes
operable unit (OU) 1 was completed. Drafts of the Sites 9, 12,
and 13 PPs were completed. Regulatory agencies requested
RODs for Site 14, Palos Verdes OU 1, and all areas of concern
(AOCs) that require institutional controls (ICs). The RAB met
quarterly and the BCT met monthly. Both the RAB Navy and
community co-chair attended the Navy-hosted RAB workshop
in July 2004 and the Navy solicited new RAB membership.
In FY05, Long Beach Naval Complex initiated a radiological
investigation work plan for Sites 1 and 2 and conducted LTM at
Sites 1, 2, 11, 12, 13, 14, and Palos Verdes Housing OU 1. The
Navy also finalized the 5-year review for Sites 1-6A, 14, and
Palos Verdes OU 1. In addition, the Navy drafted the Site 7 FS
addendum and finalized the Site 9 ROD/RAP. The Navy also
drafted the remedial design (RD)/RA work plans for Sites 8, 9,
and 10, and completed the Site 16 expanded site inspection
and obtained clean closure. Lastly, the Navy conducted
pre-closure groundwater sampling for Buildings 101 and 118
and initiated a screening level ecological risk assessment
(SLERA) for Palos Verdes OU 1.

Long Beach Naval Complex completed site closure for
Buildings 101 and 118. The Navy finalized RODs for Sites 11,
12, and 13. The Navy also finalized the FS addendum and
issued a draft final PP for Site 7. LTM operations continued at
Sites 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14. The installation also
conducted groundwater monitoring at Site 14. The decision was
made to combine the RD/RA work plan for Sites 8, 9, and 10
and the RD/RA work plan for Sites 11, 12, and 13 into one work
plan. The installation began development of a strategy to
achieve site closure for radiological concerns at Sites 1 and 2.
A SLERA was issued and LTM was performed for Palos Verdes
OU 1. Long Beach Naval Complex began an evaluation on the
status of AOCs on Navy owned property. The Navy met with
regulators and determined that no further action was required at
Site 6B. The cost of completing environmental restoration has
changed significantly due to technical issues.
The radiological investigation work plan and fieldwork for Sites
1 and 2 were not completed due to contractor issues. The
installation did not complete the draft ROD for Site 7 due to
delays in finalizing the FS addendum. The Navy did not initiate
documentation of ICs for Site 14 due to delays in the finalization
of a ROD for Site 14. Technical issues delayed the basewide
RCRA permit closure and request for basewide ROD for ICs.
The BCT met quarterly and the RAB met semi-annually.

The Navy has identified no MMRP sites at this installation.
