The Albany Marine Corps Logistics Base (MCLB) is used to<br />

acquire, supply, and dispose of materials needed to sustain<br />

combat readiness of Marine forces worldwide. The sites at the<br />

installation are grouped into six operable units (OUs), including<br />

basewide groundwater (OU 6) and a site-screening group. Sites<br />

include disposal areas, storage areas, and landfills.<br />

Contaminants include trichloroethylene (TCE), polychlorinated<br />

biphenyls (PCBs), and heavy metals. EPA placed the<br />

installation on the NPL in December 1989, and the installation<br />

signed a federal facility agreement (FFA) in July 1991. In 2005,<br />

the BRAC Commission recommended Albany MCLB for<br />

realignment. The installation formed a technical review<br />

committee. In FY92, Albany MCLB completed a community<br />

relations plan. In FY01 and FY06, the installation completed<br />

5-year reviews.<br />

The installation has identified 32 sites. A No Further Action<br />

Record of Decision (ROD) at OU 2 was signed. Final RODs for<br />

four sites at OU 1 and two sites at OUs 3, 4, 5, and 6 have<br />

been completed. In addition, the installation has signed an<br />

interim ROD at solid waste management unit (SWMU) 3. The<br />

cleanup progress at Albany MCLB for FY02 through FY05 is<br />

detailed below.<br />

In FY02, the installation completed an enhanced bioremediation<br />

pilot study. Innovative technologies of hydraulic and pneumatic<br />

fracturing were utilized to increase the effective treatment zone.<br />

The installation began the remedial design (RD) for source<br />

control. A zero-valent iron (ZVI) and potassium permanganate<br />

pilot study for groundwater remediation was initiated.<br />

Preliminary results of the evapotranspiration (ET) cap pilot<br />

study, comparing an ET cap (hybrid poplar tree cap) with a<br />

compacted clay cap, favored the ET cap. The Navy completed<br />

an inventory of all Military Munitions Response Program<br />

(MMRP) sites. No MMRP sites were identified at this<br />

installation.<br />

In FY03, Albany completed the ZVI and potassium<br />

permanganate pilot studies. The installation planned to repaint<br />

the water tower over one of the SWMUs, and included both<br />

SWMUs as part of one contract action. Albany MCLB<br />

completed the ET cap pilot study and initiated the RD for<br />

groundwater.<br />

In FY04, the installation began delineation sampling and<br />

investigation of the SWMUs.<br />

In FY05, Albany MCLB implemented the groundwater remedy.<br />

The installation completed remediation of the two SWMUs and<br />

completed an explanation of significant differences to the OU 6<br />

ROD. Additionally, the installation completed the RD for source<br />

areas and awarded the contract for the construction of the cap.<br />

p‰HT2s‚€2€�������<br />

Albany MCLB completed injections of permanganate and ZVI<br />

into the groundwater and performed two rounds of monitoring to<br />

determine the effectiveness of the treatments. The installation<br />

completed a 5-year review that determined all remedies<br />

remained in place and were protective. The installation started<br />

construction of an ET cap.<br />
