Toxic plume threatens project

Illustrates the challenges facing those who wish to reclaim land damaged by the United States military (the US military is the world's biggest polluter). -Shiela

Subject: [CPEO-MEF] "New" Ft. Ord (CA) plume
To: Military Environmental Forum <military@list.cpeo.org>

[This significance of the discovery of a new TCE plume at Ft. Ord goes well beyond the impact on the proposed development and the potential risks to public health. It points out, once again, either how difficult it is to characterize fully contamination at major military bases or how poorly current characterization practices are. The same thing happened at Moffett Field. After years of facility-wide investigations, a new plume of volatile organic compounds was found. This bodes ill for armed service plans to shift cleanup responsibility to private entities, particularly for the upcoming round of base closures. Private parties and their insurance companies will be unwilling to accept property where new toxic plumes might be discovered, or they will make more financial demands to protect against the risk. - LS]
