Tucson International Airport (IAP) provides training for the Air<br />
National Guard (ANG). EPA placed the installation on the NPL<br />
in September 1983 and the Air Force signed a federal facility<br />
agreement (FFA) in October 1994. Sites identified at the<br />
installation include fire training areas, solvent dumping areas,<br />
storm drainage discharge areas, the old wash rack area,<br />
petroleum/oil/lubricant (POL) areas, and spill areas. Waste<br />
disposal and spill sites have had the greatest effect on the<br />
environment. The principal contaminant is trichloroethylene<br />
(TCE) in groundwater. Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and<br />
chromium also have affected groundwater to a lesser extent<br />
and total petroleum hydrocarbons have been detected in soil at<br />
the installation. A Restoration Advisory Board was formed in<br />
FY95. To aid in environmental cleanup, the installation has<br />
established successful partnerships with citizens and regulators<br />
through the Unified Community Advisory Board (UCAB). In<br />
FY03, a 5-year review was completed.<br />
Environmental studies have identified eight sites at Tucson. To<br />
date, one Record of Decision was completed for contaminated<br />
soil cleanup. The cleanup progress at Tucson IAP for FY02<br />
through FY05 is detailed below.<br />
In FY02, the installation continued a partnership with EPA<br />
Region 9 and the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality<br />
(ADEQ). Operation of the groundwater extraction and treatment<br />
system continued. Participation in the UCAB continued.<br />
In FY03, the installation continued a partnership with EPA<br />
Region 9 and ADEQ. Operation of the groundwater extraction<br />
and treatment system continued, as well as participation in the<br />
UCAB. The Air Force completed a 5-year review.<br />
In FY04, the installation continued to partner with EPA Region 9<br />
and ADEQ, and continued participation in the UCAB. Operation<br />
of the groundwater extraction and treatment system continued.<br />
In FY05, Tucson IAP continued operating the groundwater<br />
extraction treatment and recharge system. The installation<br />
continued partnering with EPA and ADEQ, and participated in<br />
the UCAB. The Air Force updated its Military Munitions<br />

Response Program (MMRP) inventory. No MMRP sites were<br />
identified at this installation during the inventory development.<br />
p‰HT2s‚€2€�������<br />
Tucson IAP continued operating the groundwater extraction<br />
treatment and recharge system and made adjustments to<br />
enhance the system's operation. EPA and ADEQ both<br />
concurred that the system is effectively containing<br />
contamination and preventing its spread beyond the base's<br />
property line. The ANG maintained its Defense and State<br />
Memorandum of Agreement partnership with ADEQ, and<br />
partnered with the Air Force Center for Environmental<br />
Excellence (AFCEE) Regional Environmental Office (REO) to<br />
facilitate relations between the ANG and the regulators.<br />
The installation continued participation in UCAB, however<br />
agreed to reduce UCAB meetings from bi-monthly to quarterly.<br />
