Site Characterization for Explosives Contamination at a Military Firing Range Impact Area
Author: Thomas F. Jenkins
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Explosives, Military
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
A study was conducted at the inland firing ranges at Fort Ord to determine the current levels of explosives residues and to recommend appropriate future site characterization techniques. A set of 280 soil samples was collected from depths ranging from 0-15 cm to 105-120 cm from anti-tank ranges 44 and 48. Sampling locations were selected on the basis of the locations of current and former targets, and included an area away from specific targets and a background area, not affected by local detonations. HMX was the explosives residue present at the highest concentration. Much lower concentrations of RDX, TNT, and two isomers of aminodinitrotoluene were also detected. Explosives residues were largely confined to surface soils near tank targets. A major problem for site characterization was found to be the large spatial heterogeneity present. Composite samples very effectively provided representative samples for 5- x 5-m size grids. A colorimetric on-site method gave reliable results for HMX, relative to SW846 Method 8330. No currently available on-site method for RDX was found to be adequate in the presence of much higher concentrations of HMX.
