Barstow Marine Corps Logistics Base (MCLB) consists of<br />

Yermo Annex, Nebo Main Base, and the rifle range. Vehicle<br />

maintenance, repair and maintenance of weapons and missile<br />

systems, and storage of petroleum and chemical products<br />

contributed to contamination. The site types include sludge<br />

disposal areas, plating waste disposal areas, low-level<br />

radioactive waste storage areas, spill sites, underground<br />

storage tank (UST) sites, and evaporation ponds. EPA placed<br />

the installation on the NPL in November 1989 after high<br />

concentrations of trichloroethylene (TCE) were detected in<br />

groundwater monitoring wells. The installation signed a federal<br />

facility agreement (FFA) in October 1990. In 2005, the BRAC<br />

Commission recommended Barstow MCLB for realignment.<br />

The installation formed a technical review committee, prepared<br />

a community relations plan (CRP), and established an<br />

information repository and administrative record in FY91. The<br />

CRP was revised in FY02. Public meetings are held annually;<br />

however, no interest exists in forming a Restoration Advisory<br />

Board. In FY03, the installation completed a 5-year review.<br />

To date, 39 CERCLA and 3 UST regulation sites have been<br />

identified at this installation. The installation has completed<br />

Records of Decision (RODs) for Operable Units (OUs) 1, 2, 3,<br />

4, 5, and 6. The installation closed OUs 3 and 4 in FY00. The<br />

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

detailed below.<br />

In FY02, the installation completed closeout of OUs 5 and 6.<br />

The extended RCRA facility assessment report for CERCLA<br />

Area of Concern (CAOC) 39 was finalized. The CRP was<br />

revised. A 5-year review and an explanation of significant<br />

differences (ESDs) to not install the OUs 1 and 2 off-base<br />

groundwater extraction system began. The Navy completed an<br />

inventory of all Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP)<br />

sites and identified no MMRP sites at this installation.<br />

In FY03, the installation completed a 5-year review. The OU 7<br />

remedial investigation (RI) and OU 2 Nebo North air<br />

sampling/soil vapor extraction (AS/SVE) treatability study<br />

fieldwork was completed. The system at OU 2 Nebo South was<br />

expanded. The installation tracked the methyl tertiary-butyl<br />

ether (MTBE) plume that has commingled with the base volatile<br />

organic compound (VOC) plume and determined that a private<br />

entity was the source.<br />

In FY04, the installation completed the OU 2 Nebo North<br />

AS/SVE report. Remedial action (RA) operations (RA-O) and<br />

long-term management (LTM) continued at CAOCs 37 and 38,<br />

and landfill caps. The installation worked with Regional Water<br />

Quality Control Board and the private entity to manage the<br />

MTBE plume. The installation requested compensation from the<br />

private entity. The installation submitted the draft OU 7 RI<br />

report. Technical memorandums in support of an ESD for OUs<br />

1 and 2 were completed.<br />

In FY05, the installation completed repairs at CAOC 7. RA-O at<br />

CAOCs 37 and 38, and landfill cap LTM continued. The OUs 1<br />

and 2 optimization studies were completed and preparation of<br />

ESDs was started. The installation continued working with the<br />

Navy's Office of the General Council (OGC) to recapture funds<br />

related to the MTBE plume. The Navy obtained closures from<br />

the State for 44 USTs.<br />

Barstow MCLB, EPA, and the State of California approved the<br />

OU 2 Nebo South ROD. The installation implemented RA-O<br />

activities for groundwater at CAOCs 37 and 38 and LTM for<br />

landfills. Coordination with OGC to recapture funds related to<br />

the MTBE plume continued. The installation initiated an<br />

ecological risk assessment (ERA) and RI for OU 7.<br />

The ESD for OU 1 was delayed due to regulatory review.<br />

Regulatory issues also delayed the remedial design (RD)/RA<br />

work plan and design sampling activities at CAOCs 37 and 38.<br />
