Download or read book Solid Waste Management Options for Naval Installations on Guam written by Richard Michael Roberts and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy's solid waste (SW) management operations and energy production/distribution systems on the island of Guam were inspected and evaluated. Air Force and Civil (GovGuam) operations were also brought into the study in the interest of exploring possible integrated concepts. It was found that SW procedures practiced by the PWC Guam conform well with NAVFAC instructions and EPA guidelines. Opportunities for resource recovery, particularly of aluminum and boxboard, should be exploited, however. The collection and landfill disposal operations can be continued for up to 15 years before changes need to be made. Benefit/cost analyses of alternative disposal approaches were performed. The concept of burning all of the Navy's SW to steam-drive the Naval station's air conditioning plant emerged as a possibility. Another cost beneficial approach, but one involving the other jurisdictions, would be to erect a turbo-electric (2.5-MW) facility that would fire all of the SW generated on Guam. The mass-fired plant would be owned by GovGuam and preferably operated by a full-service contractor. Since both the GovGuam and Air Force landfills have very limited additional usage and acceptable new sites are quite limited, the concept would solve the serious SW disposal problems now faced by both of those entities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed Department of Defense (DOD) efforts to identify and clean up abandoned hazardous waste disposal sites on a Navy and an Air Force installation in Guam. GAO found that DOD: (1) initiated its Installation Restoration Program (IRP) to identify suspected problems with closed disposal sites and to control the migration of hazardous contamination from those sites; (2) completed the program's first phase, the identification of bases with potentially hazardous sites, at both facilities; (3) completed preliminary work on the second-phase confirmation study for the Air Force base; and (4) awarded a contract for a confirmation study for the naval base in April 1986. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Guam: (1) believe that both installations need to include more site assessment work; (2) questioned the scope of the first-phase assessments; (3) noted 45 sites requiring reexamination, despite earlier DOD determinations that they required no further study; and (4) identified more sites that DOD should have assessed during the first phase of IRP. GAO found that: (1) the Navy agreed to perform additional testing of 7 of its sites, but it did not agree to monitor an additional 27 sites, as Guam and EPA requested; (2) the Air Force and Guam were working together during the IRP second phase to ensure reassessment of sites the Air Force did not consider during the first phase; (3) testing of the air base's drinking water has been sporadic and incomplete, but monthly testing of samples at various locations in the system is now in place; and (4) discussions are continuing between EPA, Guam, and the Navy concerning site monitoring.

Book excerpt: A portion of U.S. Marine Corps forces currently located in Okinawa, Japan would be relocated to Guam. This relocation is proposed to occur during the same time-frame as a proposed wharf construction in Guam¿s Apra Harbor. A U.S. Army Air and Missile Defense Task Force is also proposed for Guam. For the purposes of this EIS, these three proposed actions are referred to as the Guam and the Common. of the N. Mariana Islands (CNMI) military relocation. This EIS will inform decisions based on an understanding of the environmental consequences of the proposed Guam and the CNMI military relocation and take measures to protect, restore, and enhance the environ.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fiscal and technological limitations associated with cleaning up hazardous waste sites to background conditions have prompted responsible parties to turn to risk-based methods for environmental rememdiation. Environmental Cleanup at Navy Facilities reviews and critiques risk-based methods, including those developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the American Society of Testing and Materials. These critiques lead to the identification of eleven criteria that must be part of any risk-based methodology adopted by the Navy, a responsible party with a large number of complex and heavily contaminated waste sites.
