Problems/Comments

U.S. Military interest in Yakutat began by Executive Order in 1929, with the creation of the Yakutat Bay Naval Reservation. Occupation by the military began in 1939 when the Civil Aeronautic Administration (CAA) began to develop a landing field. Construction of the Yakutat Air Base began in 1940, and was completed in 1943 with a total area of approximately 46,080 acres. Military facilities were established in Yakutat because of its strategic geographic location. The Yakutat Air Base was operated as an auxiliary airfield during World War II capable of supporting pursuit and bombardment aircraft. No aircraft were assigned permanently to Yakutat; instead, the base served as a ferrying post and temporary station for aircraft squadrons, and as a refueling stop between the 48 contiguous states and points in Alaska. The air base also hosted large military vessels in Monti Bay. The air base was placed on caretaker status in April 1944, declared surplus in December 1945, and ceased operations in 1946. Parts of the property of the Air Force Base was relinquished to the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) , the CAA (now known as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Department of the Navy, and the Tongass National Forest. In 1960, the U.S. Air Force acquired lands from the U.S. Forest Service and the State of Alaska Division of Lands to construct a radio link between Cape Yakataga and Hoonah. The Ocean Cape Radio Relay (OCRR) Station facility served as a tropospheric communications station as part of the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System under the White Alice Communications System (WACS). The site, located on the Phipps Peninsula at the end of Point Carrew Road, approximately 5 miles west of the city of Yakutat, included industrial buildings, support facilities, water and fuel storage tanks, pipelines, billboard antennae, a bridge, roads, and utility lines. The facilities were leased to Recording Company America Alaska Communications, Inc. between 1974 and 1976. The OCRR Station was declared excess by the U.S. Air Force in June 1976. This land was relinquished to the BLM in 1977, and conveyed to the Tlingit tribe in 1983. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) carried out cleanup operations around Yakutat in 1984. Remaining Department of Defense (DoD) facilities were slated to be removed. Although no project report is available, it appears that most of the infrastructure was removed at that time. Multiple remedial investigations (RIs) have been conducted at the former Yakutat Air Base since the 1984 cleanup operations. The RIs typically included select areas of concern and focused on sampling and analysis of media including surface soil, subsurface soil, sediment, surface water and groundwater for suspected contaminants. In addition, multiple geophysical studies have been performed to locate buried objects such as piping, tanks and drums; and debris within local surface water bodies. Debris removal activities have been conducted at Ocean Cape by the USACE and the Yakutat Tlingit Tribe. Based on information gathered about potential contamination resulting from military use of the Army Air Base during World War II (from 1940 to 1946), 67 individual potential contaminant source areas of concern (AOC) have been identified. 14 of the sites have been investigated by the USACE have been found to pose no unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. One site was investigated and determined to not be eligible for cleanup by the USACE, and will be addressed by other parties. The 52 remaining AOCs will be addressed in the future by USACE with input from ADEC and stakeholders. This will include reorganizing the AOCs into smaller, discrete projects that can be more efficiently executed. The ADEC, USACE, and other stakeholders are still in the process of identifying the complete list of potentially-contaminated sites associated with the Former Yakutat Air Base.

Action Information

Action Date Action Description DEC Staff
7/27/1984 Update or Other Action The Environmental Restoration Defense Account Debris Cleanup and Site Restoration Design, Yakutat, Alaska was prepared by Frank Moolin & Associates, Inc. for the Alaska Army Corps of Engineers and submitted to the EPA Superfund Branch. The plan included debris removal and cleanup at most of the sites throughout the former Yakutat Air Base. The following landowners were contacted and requested debris cleanup on their lands: 1) The City of Yakutat 2) The Yak-Tat-Kwaan Native Corporation 3) The United States Forest Service 4) The State of Alaska, Depart of Transportation. John Halverson
8/1/1994 Update or Other Action A field investigation at the Former Yakutat Air Base was conducted by Ecology and Environment for the Alaska Army Corps of Engineers under the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The purpose of the investigation was to identify DERP-eligible hazards and to identify potential public health and environmental hazards related to DoD sites. Nine potential areas of concern were identified and investigated at the former Yakutat Air Force Base: an incinerator, drums near the southeast end of the Yakutat airport runway, state disposal site No. 3, solid waste disposal dump No. 4, the Air Corps Operations Reserve tank farm, the drum dump on the north side of Point Carrew Road, the Quartermaster Loop Barrel dump, the drum dump northwest of the active Yakutat airport runway, and the former fuel tank farm in downtown Yakutat. John Halverson
8/1/1994 Update or Other Action A field investigation at the Former Ocean Cape Radio Relay Station was conducted by Ecology and Environment for the Alaska Army Corps of Engineers under the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The purpose of the investigation was to identify DERP-eligible hazards and to identify potential public health and environmental hazards related to DoD sites. Based on the investigation and real estate records, the report states that the entire site qualified DERP eligibility, however other potentially responsible parties may exist if the site was beneficially used after the military involvement ceased. John Halverson
3/1/1997 Update or Other Action AGRA Earth & Environmental, Inc. (AGRA) conducted a Summary Investigation of DOD Activities on Yakutat Tribal Lands for the Yakutat Tlingit Tribe. The report present a review of previous environmental assessments, results of a 1996 site reconnaissance, and a qualitative human health risk assessment. The following seven different areas of potential concern were identified: 1) Ocean Cape Radio Relay Station and the Yakutat Tlingit Tribe’s culture camp 2) the gun emplacements and WWII facilities at Phipps Peninsula 3) former bomb storage areas, maintenance facilities and fuel storage tank area, and the Ankau Bridge drum dump 4) the city of Yakutat, the former seaplane launch site, and the municipal Yakutat dump 5) the former Quartermaster’s Loop and bomb storage areas, hospitals, plane dispersant areas, shooting range, mill pond, drainage ditches, State Disposal Site No. 3, and surface dump sites 6) the existing airport and facilities west of Engineer’s road 7) State Disposal Site No. 5 and the 6-inch guns near cannon beach. Detectable concentrations of dioxins, petroleum, PCBs, and metals were found in soil samples collected at some of the sites. Recommendations included additional site characterization and ecological risk assessment for several of the sites. John Halverson
4/20/2000 Meeting or Teleconference Held A public meeting was held on April 20, 2000 in which the USACE presented the Former Yakutat Air Base project.

Additional information was requested to determine whether the proposed work is sufficient to address hazardous substances, pollutants, and contaminants resulting from past military activities in and around Yakutat. Due to the time schedules for the contracts and proposed work, these determinations were agreed to be addressed at a later time. Investigation work was to be conducted in specific sources located within the following areas of concern (AOC): Air Corps Increase Group #2 (AOC A), Air Warning Filter Center (AOC B), Point Carrew Garrison (AOC C), Army Dock (AOC D), Northwest Drum Dump/Quartermaster Loop (AOC E), Khantaak Island (AOC F), Minor Naval Air Facility/Seaplane Base (AOC G), Ocean Cape Radio Relay Station (AOC H), Solid Waste Dump #4 (AOC K), Air Corps Operations Reserve Tank Farm (AOC L), Post Powerhouse/25,000-Gallon Tactical Underground Storage Tank (AOC M).
