This book was released on 1983 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is the Executive Summary of the Basewide Energy Systems Plan for the Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant (HWAAP) at Hawthorne, Nevada. This project has been executed as a part of the Department of the Army's Energy Engineering Analysis Program (EEAP). The overall objective of the project is to develop a systematic plan of projects that will result in the reduction of energy consumption in compliance with the objectives set forth in the Army Facilities Energy Plan (AFEP), without decreasing the readiness posture of the Army. The Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant is a Government Owned and Contractor Operator (GOCO) Army facility. Consequently, any reference made in this document to the Energy Conservation Investment Program (ECIP) is directly analagous to Energy Conservation and Management (ECAM). The ECAM designation pertains specifically to GOCO Army installations. All Programming Documents for projects developed from this study reference ECAM wherever ECIP is called for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magazine fire involving 30,715 pounds of Navy propelling charges (hazard class 1.3/mass fire) occurred at Hawthorne AAP. The material was stored in Magazine 116-14-E. The propellant was unserviceable (condition code H), awaiting disposal instructions. At 0930, 9 August 1989, a nearby work crew heard a "bang" followed by smoke and sparks coming from the magazine door vents and smoke from the rear ventilator. The doors were then forced open by the pressure of the burning propellant followed by a large jet of flame. The magazine was allowed to cool overnight. An explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) team entered the magazine the next morning and determined there was no unburned propellant in the magazine. The most probable cause was spontaneous ignition due to low stabilizer of 8-inch, 55-caliber bagged propelling charges (national stock number (NSN) 1320-00-089-4275; Department of Defense identification code (DODIC) D605 located in the left front portion of the magazine. This was based on: the known low stabilizer content (0.04 to .13 percent) of seven 8-inch propelling charges lots located in this area (lot numbers DG-2-CO-68, DGR-1-HAW-55, DGR-11-CO-68, DGR-13-CO-68, DGR-14-CO-68, DGR-5-CO-69, and DGR-8-C-51); heavy fire damage occurring in the left front portion of the magazine; and analysis of observations made by several witnesses.

Download or read book Test Plan for Development and Demonstration of Hot Gas Decontamination for Explosives at Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant (HWAAP) covers some 246,000 acres of land situated in Mineral County approximately 135 miles southeast of Reno, Nevada, along U.S. Route 95. HWAAP was originally constructed in 1929 as a U.S. Navy Ammunition Depot (NAD). The Western Area Demilitarization Facility (WADF) was constructed by the Navy from 1975 to 1977 to dispose of Naval munitions in a controlled manner. The U.S. Army continued the Navy's munitions demilitarization program and assumed control of Hawthorne in October 1977 and changed the name to Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant. The WADF conducts a process of reverse assembly of the munitions followed by steam, autoclave, mechanical, or washout removal of explosive charges. Reclaimed explosives can, at least theoretically, be recycled, or employed in less demanding applications such as demolitions or as donor explosives for safe disposal of unexploded ordinance. Small metal parts are decontaminated by furnace flashing. Large items could be decontaminated in Building 11 7-1 5. This flashing chamber was originally designed and constructed to provide for flashing large items. The parts are then released as scrap metal. An enclosed flashing chamber was constructed at WADF for the purpose of decontaminating items by flashing them with surplus propellant powder.

Douthat and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Huntsville Division recently completed a contract for an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Surface Sweep of the Hawthorne Army Ammunition Plant (HWAAP), Nevada, New Bomb Open Burning/Open Detonation Grounds (OB/OD). The scope of the contract required the location and rendering safe of approximately 5000 tons of ordnance fragments and 25,000 items of unexploded ordnance. This was a manual labor intensive operation under the direct supervision of civilian EOD qualified supervisors. The completion of this project has demonstrated that what was once an exclusive military function can be done in a safe and effective manner by civilian forces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army Environmental Center tasked the Mandatory Center of Expertise for the Curation and Management of Archaeological Collections (MCX) with the job of assisting the Army in complying with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), P.L. 101-601. The MCX was asked to locate and assess archaeological collections derived from Army lands, to identify the Native American or Native Hawaiian organizations culturally affiliated with the collections, and to draft Section 6 Summary letters for each installation. A two-stage process was used to identify, locate and assess the contents of the collections, consisting of archival research and telephone interviews with the repository personnel. This report conveys the results of the collection research completed for the compliance with Section 6 of NAGPRA.
