Earle Naval Weapons Station (NWS) handles, stores,<br />
renovates, and ships munitions. Releases of volatile organic<br />
compounds (VOCs) and heavy metals from landfills and<br />
production areas have contaminated groundwater and soil at<br />
the installation. EPA placed the installation on the NPL in<br />
August 1990, and the Navy signed a federal facility agreement<br />
(FFA) in December 1990. In 2005, the BRAC Commission<br />
recommended Earle NWS for realignment. In FY90, the<br />
installation formed a technical review committee (TRC),<br />
completed a community relations plan (CRP), and established<br />
an information repository containing a copy of the<br />
administrative record. The Navy converted the TRC to a<br />
Restoration Advisory Board in FY95, updated the CRP in FY98,<br />
and completed a 5-year review in FY03.<br />
To date, preliminary assessments (PAs) identified 29 sites of<br />
concern, 4 of which required further investigation. The sites<br />
include landfills, production areas, storage areas, maintenance<br />
areas, and disposal areas. Sixty-nine sites (48 CERCLA and 21<br />
underground storage tank sites) have been identified. The<br />
installation has completed Records of Decision (RODs) at 13<br />
sites and has recommended no further action (NFA) at 8 sites.<br />
The cleanup progress at Earle NWS for FY02 through FY05 is<br />
detailed below.<br />
In FY02, the installation completed the PA/site inspection for<br />
Site 48. An environmental engineering and cost analysis, a<br />
remedial action (RA), and confirmatory sampling indicating NFA<br />
were completed at Site 47. The draft feasibility study (FS) for<br />
Sites 1 and 11 was completed. A secondary tetrachloroethylene<br />
(PCE) plume was found at Site 26. The draft proposed plan<br />
(PP) for Site 13 was submitted. A contract for remedial<br />
investigations/FSs, PPs, and RODs was initiated for Sites 1, 6,<br />
11, 12, 15, and 17. The Navy completed an inventory of all<br />
Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) sites. No MMRP<br />
sites were identified at this installation.<br />
In FY03, the installation completed the draft ROD for Site 13.<br />
The FS was completed for Sites 1 and 11. The draft PP for<br />
Sites 1 and 11 were submitted for regulatory review. The Sites<br />
6, 12, 15, and 17 FSs were reviewed. Sites 3 and 10 landfill<br />
caps were completed. The 5-year review plan was completed.<br />

In FY04, the installation finalized the ROD for Site 13. The Navy<br />
completed the PP for Sites 1 and 11 and submitted the draft<br />
RODs for Sites 1 and 11 for regulatory review. The installation<br />
completed the FS for Sites 6, 12, 15, and 17. Regulatory<br />
reviews for the PP for Sites 6, 12, 15, 17, and Site 26<br />
secondary PCE plume were completed. The installation<br />
finalized the ROD for Site 13 and initiated the RA. Optimization<br />
studies for Sites 16F and 26 were completed. The Conservation<br />
Club Range was recommended for NFA.<br />
In FY05, Earle NWS completed the design and construction on<br />
the Landfill cap for Site 13. The Navy signed a ROD for Sites 1<br />
and 11. The RA for Site 1 began. The installation completed a<br />
Classification Exception Area (CEA) draft for Site 1 and issued<br />
a draft ROD for Sites 6, 12, 15, and 17. The installation began a<br />
draft FS for Site 7 and began discussion of closeout of Sites 9,<br />
41, and 46 through a memorandum of agreement with EPA.<br />
The installation issued the final PA for the Conservation Club<br />
Range recommending NFA.<br />

Earle NWS signed RODs for Sites 3 and 10. The installation<br />
continued the RA for Site 1, and began CEA implementation.<br />
The installation submitted draft CEAs to the New Jersey<br />
Department of Environmental Protection for sites 6, 17, and 26,<br />
and began reviewing CEAs for Sites 1 and 13. The installation<br />
submitted RODs for Sites 6, 12, 15, 17, and 26 for regulatory<br />
review. The installation also submitted NFAs for Sites 9, 41,<br />
and 46, and the draft FS for Site 7 for regulatory review.<br />
