Historical Site Assessment: BOMARC Missile Site, McGuire Air Force Base, New Jersey

Author(s): Cabrera Services, Inc

Year: 2006

Summary

The U.S. Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence contracted Cabrera Services, Inc. to complete a historic site assessment in support of proposed radiological remediation at the Boeing Michigan Aeronautical Research Center (BOMARC) facility, Plumsted Township, Ocean County, New Jersey. The site assessment completed background research to identify original building and site layout plans, describe the facility’s use history, and to characterize areas with a potential for radiological contamination. The assessment report provided information to: (1) identify potential, likely, or known sources of radioactive contamination; (2) identify areas that need further action; (3) assess the likelihood of contaminant migration; (4) identify areas as impacted or non-impacted; (5) identify data gaps in impacted areas; and (6) provide information useful for designing subsequent radiological site surveys.
