pease air force base

509 CSG/CC

The Pease Air Force Base (AFB) site maintained aircraft from the 1950s on a 4,365-acre parcel of land until 1991 when the base was closed. In support of its missions, Pease AFB generated various quantities of fuels, oils, lubricants, solvents and protective coatings. Some of these materials contaminated site soils, groundwater, surface water, and sediments. The Department of Defense's Installation Restoration Program (IRP) is responsible for identifying the locations of releases from past disposal sites and minimizing associated hazards to human health and the environment. All studies have been completed for the base. Eleven Record of Decisions (ROD) representing all the major Superfund cleanup decisions were completed between 1993 and 1997. All remedial design and construction activities for the Base have also been completed. Operation and maintenance (O&M) and long-term monitoring (LTM) activities will be conducted to demonstrate the continued performance of on-going cleanup actions and achievement of cleanup standards.
