500 WEST 1200 SOUTH

Defense Depot Ogden, Utah (DDOU), located in Weber County, covers about 1,139 acres in northwestern Ogden. Activated in 1941, it served as a warehousing and distribution facility. At one time it stored and distributed food, clothing, petroleum products, as well as medical, industrial, construction and electronic supplies to military installations and other federal agencies. Map of the Superfund site boundary, February 2007 DDOU was one of seven warehousing and distribution depots operated nationwide by the Defense Logistics Agency. Soil and groundwater contamination on the site led the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to add DDOU to its Superfund National Priorities List in 1987. DDOU reached construction completion in September 1995. All remaining cleanup activity is under oversight by EPA and the Utah Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ). Congress approved DDOU as a Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Act installation in October 1995. Reuse of the base began in late 1997. DDOU officially closed on September 30, 1997.
