This report presents the results of calculations by the |
|
Preliminary Pollution Limit Value (PPLV) method for 11 |
|
known or suspected soil contaminants at the Alabama Army |
|
Ammunition Plant, Childersburg, AL. These contaminants |
|
remain from World War II production activities. The |
|
results can assist Army managers in decisions involved |
|
with the disposition of the plant, now considered excess |
|
property. Specifically, soil limits are suggested for |
|
release of land to unrestricted use and land use |
|
restrictions are suggested for existing levels of soil |
|
contaminations. The pollutants of concern are: 2,4,6- |
|
trinitrotoluene; dinitrotoluenes; 2,4,6- |
|
trinitrophenylmethylnitramine; lead; 1,3,5- |
|
trinitrobenzene; nitrocellulose; 1-3-dinitrobenzene; |
|
diphenylamine; aniline; N, N-dimethylaniline; and |
|
nitrobenzene. PPLV values are computed for these |
|
substances for several possible future land use |
|
situations; subsistence agricultural (essentially |
|
unrestricted use); residential housing; apartment |
|
housing; industrial; and hunting lands. The PPLV values |
|
represent situation- specific soil levels, which based on |
|
the methodology and best-available data would be |
|
generally considered to present no hazard to humans. The |
|
method suggests that vegetable uptake of pollutants could |
|
be the pollutant transmission route which causes severest |
|
restriction of land use. |
