LINE 7 AMMO LAP

 

SITE DESCRIPTION

Line 7 was a production Line that encompassed 9 acres, built in 1941 and has been inactive since 1970.  It was a fuze and blank load, assemble and pack operation where artillery primers, rocket igniters and time fuzes were assembled for World War II and the Korean War.

 

The IRP site consists of the contamination from past production. Any contamination from current or future activities will be addressed under non-IRP funding.

 

The PA/SI was completed in 1991, and an initial RI was completed in May 1996. No contaminants above action levels were found.

 

This site is considered Response Complete and requires no further action under the IRP. USACHPPM Phase II Complete.

 

The Army determined that the facilities at Line 7 were excess and the entire line was deconstructed in FY2006 under the building demolition and debris removal program as documented in the Line 7 Decontamination and Demolition Report.  The IRP conducted confirmation sampling post demolition and no contamination was found above action levels.

 

A revised draft OU3 RI/FS was submitted to EPA for review in April 2008 to address groundwater; the recommendation for groundwater is No Further Action.
