Brooks Air Force Base (AFB) began as Kelly Field No. 5 in
December 1917. In 1991, Brooks AFB was designated as the
central location for the Air Force Center for Environmental
Excellence, one of several tenant organizations on base. In
1998, Air Force Materiel Command converted Brooks AFB from
a center to the Air Force's only composite medical wing, the
311th Human Systems Wing. In 2002, the Air Force transferred
Brooks AFB to the City of San Antonio and the installation
became Brooks City Base as part of a demonstration project in
which the city undertook infrastructure responsibilities in
exchange for business opportunities and community
development. In 2005, the BRAC Commission recommended
closure of Brooks City Base. The installation completed a
5-year review in FY05.
To date, 7 areas of concern (AOCs) and 11 Installation
Restoration Program (IRP) sites have been identified at Brooks
AFB. Of these sites, 1 AOC and 10 IRP sites have been closed
and require no further action (NFA). The remaining six AOCs
have also been recommended for NFA. The remaining IRP site
continues to undergo remediation. The cleanup progress at
Brooks City Base for FY02 through FY05 is detailed below.
In FY02, Brooks City Base completed site inspections for
industrial area AOCs, and a preliminary assessment and site
investigation for the skeet and firing range (S&FR) AOCs. The
Air Force awarded a remedial action (RA) contract for the
S&FR AOCs. The installation completed the second round of
post-closure compliance monitoring and continued long-term
operations and maintenance (O&M) of Fire Protection Training
Area (FPTA) 2. The data gap/bottom up review project received
site closure approval from regulators. The installation
completed three years of post-closure monitoring at Landfill
(LF) 007 and submitted the final report. The Air Force
completed soil removal actions at four former S&FR AOCs and
submitted a final report to regulators. The installation installed a
groundwater recovery system and a soil vapor extraction
system as the final RA to address trichloroethylene (TCE)
contamination and initiated monitored natural attenuation.
In FY03, the installation completed the third round of
post-closure compliance monitoring and continued long-term
O&M of FPTA 2. The installation conducted a groundwater
