Action Information
Action Date | Action | Description | DEC Staff |
---|---|---|---|
4/15/2000 | Site Added to Database | Ordnance or ordnance-related problems. | Elim Yoon |
4/15/2000 | Update or Other Action | The Level I Screen is a framework intended to facilitate somewhat objective evaluation of subjective issues and information. The screen considers the ordnance characteristics of the site (i.e., type of ordnance and density) along with physical characteristics of the site (i.e., terrain and vegetation) to determine the qualitative risk associated and the general category of future action that may be needed at the site to minimize that risk (i.e., additional investigation, remedial action, or no action). The screen also incorporates evaluation of the strength of evidence upon which screening decisions are made to ensure that there is reasonable supporting data for the choices made at this stage of the process. | Elim Yoon |
6/2/2004 | Update or Other Action | RI/FS completed for site in 2001. Site is outside of military reservation on DOI land and is therefore considered a FUDS. Site transfered to the ACOE for remediation. | Jason Weigle |
10/19/2004 | GIS Position Updated | Latitude and Longitude was derived using ArcGIS with either High Resolution Aerial Photography from the Navy with an up to 3 meters error, or line maps used in investigations combined with road layers, +/-25 feet accuracy. Metadata is as follows: Updated NAD 1983 State Plane Alaska 10 FIPS 5010 Feet; Projection: Lambert Conformal Conic; False Easting: 3280833.333333; False Northing: 0.000000; Central Meridian: -176.000000; Standard Parallel 1: 51.833333; Standard Parallel 2: 53.833333; Latitude of Origin: 51.000000; GCS North American 1983. | Jason Weigle |
3/7/2005 | Update or Other Action | Added MRTS data, derived from ADNR and USGS range, township, and section data overlaid on lat/lon coordinates derived previously. Accuracy is equivalent to the lat/lon coordinates. MRTS information depicts the center point of range fans and target areas; actual target areas or fans may overlap several sections. | Jason Weigle |
1/19/2006 | Update or Other Action | File number issued 2501.38.009.01. | Aggie Blandford |
6/24/2008 | Exposure Tracking Model On Hold | Evonne Reese | |
5/20/2013 | Update or Other Action | Updated MRSPP scores have been completed by USACE and the site received a "D" priority based on Explosive Hazard Evaluation. USACE has requested funding to perform Site Inspection (SI). | Guy Warren |
7/16/2017 | Site Visit | ADEC completed a three day site visit to Adak NAVFAC. All active sites were visited and current status discussed at length with NAVFAC representatives. Current field work activities were observed and noted. Work plan activities were proceeding as scheduled. No work plan deviations were evident. | Darren Mulkey |
8/24/2021 | Exposure Tracking Model Ranking | Initial ranking with ETM completed for source area id: 74457 name: auto-generated pm edit Adak BI-03 Bay of Islands Range Fan | Darren Mulkey |
9/13/2022 | Update or Other Action | DEC sent an email inquiry to USACE asking for a status update on Hazard IDs 3482, 3483, 3506, 3507, and 3494. | Jamie McKellar |
