Studies conducted at Alabama Army Ammunition Plant (AAP)
since FY83 identified various sites as potential sources of
contaminants. Prominent site types include: a former
ammunition production and burning ground for explosives;
industrial wastewater conveyance systems, ditches, and a red
water storage basin; landfills; underground storage tanks;
polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-containing transformers; and a
former coke oven. The installation has six operable units in
Area A and Area B. The groundwater, surface water, sediment,
and soil are contaminated with nitroaromatic compounds, heavy
metals, and explosives waste. EPA placed the installation on
the NPL in July 1987, and the installation signed a federal
facility agreement (FFA) in December 1989. In FY94, the Army
formed a BRAC cleanup team. During FY95, the Army
attempted to establish a Restoration Advisory Board (RAB), but
received no applications for RAB membership.
The Army has signed three Records of Decision (RODs) to
date. The installation closed 35 groundwater monitoring wells in
FY99. The Army completed the early transfer of property to the
City of Childersburg in FY03. The cleanup progress at Alabama
AAP for FY02 through FY05 is detailed below.
In FY02, the installation submitted the draft final soil feasibility
study (FS) for regulatory review and the groundwater remedial
investigation (RI) work continued. Final fieldwork, to include an
off-site potable well survey, was underway. The process for
early transfer of the remaining property to the City of
Childersburg continued. The installation completed the finding
of suitability for early transfer for Area B and closed
groundwater monitoring wells in Area A. The Army initiated an
inventory of closed, transferred, and transferring (CTT) ranges
and sites with unexploded ordnance, discarded military
munitions, or munitions constituents.
In FY03, the installation completed the early transfer of property
to the City of Childersburg. The installation completed a potable
well survey and groundwater RI fieldwork. The Army completed
the CTT ranges and sites inventory that identified no Military
Munitions Response Program (MMRP) sites at this installation.
The technical review committee discussed the soil and
groundwater past actions, as well as future documented
actions.

In FY04, the installation submitted the draft groundwater RI for
regulatory review, along with further site sampling of the South
Georgia Road site. The installation completed the soil FS.
In FY05, the installation completed the draft soils proposed
plan.

Alabama AAP prepared a soils PP for regulatory review and
completed a work plan addendum for additional groundwater
sampling.
Technical issues delayed the groundwater RI/FS and ROD.
