Erie Burning Grounds
(RVAAP-02)
This 35-acre AOC was used to thermally treat munitions by open burning on the ground surface. Bulk, obsolete, off-spec propellants, conventional explosives, rags, and large explosive contaminated items were treated at this location. The ash residue from the burns was left at the AOC. UXO is present at this site. Waste constituents of concern at this location include RDX, TNT, and heavy metals. There is a potential for release of contaminants from this unit to the surrounding soils, surface water/sediment, and ground water.
The PA/SI was completed in 1989. Phase I RI field work was conducted at this site in July 1999 with a draft report of findings due in February 2000.
