Public comment on the Non-Time-Critical Removal Action (NTCRA) at ER Program Site 55, Former Hazardous Waste Storage Hut

08/10/15 12:00 AM

The Department of the Navy invites Public Comment on the Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis for Site 55 — former hazardous waste storage hut — undert the environmental restoration program.

NAVAL AIR STATION PATUXENT RIVER, MARYLAND

Aug. 10, 2015

In accordance with the requirements of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River invites public comment on the Non-Time-Critical Removal Action (NTCRA) at Environmental Restoration (ER) Program Site 55, Former Hazardous Waste Storage Hut. Public comment begins Aug. 13, 2015, and closes Sept. 11, 2015. The objective of the NTCRA at Site 55 is to remove soil and sediment impacted by polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) to a level acceptable for human health and the environment.

The Navy has prepared an Engineering Estimate/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) for the NTCRA to address environmental concerns at Site 55. The Navy intends to remediate Site 55 by excavation and offsite disposal, post-excavation confirmatory sampling of soil and sediment, and site restoration.

The public is encouraged to comment on this EE/CA. The NTCRA for Site 55 will be implemented only after the public comment period has ended. An alternative removal action may be selected only after all comments have been received from the public. The EE/CA and all other relevant environmental documents for Site 55 are available for review at either of the following repositories:
