Active Sites/Wright Patterson Air Force Base
Operable Unit 9 (OU9)

Earthfill Disposal Zones 2, 3, 4, 5 6, 7, 8, 9, 10; Burial Site 3, Heating Plant 5, Solid Waste Management Unit 6-B, Defense Reutilization Marketing Organization Yard

Because the risk levels associated at OU9 were very low, no further action or institutional controls were selected as the remedial action for the source areas within this OU. However, at the DRMO yard, poly-aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination was found in the soils that was above an acceptable level of risk. The soil contamination was addressed through excavation and off-site disposal of surface soil and backfilling and placing clean gravel over the affected areas. Long-term ground water monitoring is being addressed under the Basewide Monitoring Program.
