Corrective Measures Implementation

The purpose of the Corrective Measures Implementation (CMI) is to design, construct, operate, maintain, and monitor the performance of corrective measure(s) selected to protect human health and the environment. The CMI consists of a CMI Program Plan, Corrective Measure Design, Corrective Measure Construction, and Reports. The CMI is estimated to represent approximately 30% of the required actions at CSSA. The CMI includes implementation of the program plan (5% of CMI), corrective measure design (15%), corrective measure construction (70%), and reports (10%). The CMI has not yet been initiated.

Task XI - Corrective Measure Implementation Program Plan

This CMI Program Plan task includes preparation of a Program Management Plan and an update to the Community Relations Plan. The Program Management Plan will document the overall strategy for performing the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and monitoring of corrective measures. The Community Relations Plan will be updated to reflect knowledge of citizen concerns. In addition, a public notice and fact sheet will be distributed at the completion of the engineering design.

Completion of this task is not funded. This task makes up approximately 5% of the CMI phase. It was not active during Quarter 6, and no actions are anticipated during Quarter 7.

Task XII - Corrective Measure Design

This Corrective Measure Design task includes preparation of a report which will address requirements necessary to implement the selected corrective measures, as defined in the CMS. It will include design plans and specifications, an operation and maintenance plan, a cost estimate, project schedule, construction quality assurance objectives, health and safety plan, and design phases.

Completion of this task is not funded. This task makes up approximately 15% of the CMI phase. It was not active during Quarter 6, and no actions are anticipated during Quarter 7.

Task XIII - Corrective Measure Construction

This Corrective Measure Construction task includes preparation of a construction Quality Assurance Plan to ensure, with a reasonable degree of certainty, that a completed corrective measure meets or exceeds all design criteria, plans, and specifications. The plan will describe the responsibility and authority of all organizations involved in the construction, inspection activities, and sampling requirements. Upon completion of the plan, the corrective measures will be constructed and implemented according to the plan.

Completion of this task is not funded. This task makes up approximately 70% of the CMI phase. It was not active during Quarter 6, and no actions are anticipated during Quarter 7.

Task XIV - Reports

Reports associated with the CMI include progress reports, a CMI Program Plan, CM Design Report, Construction Quality Assurance Plan, and a final Corrective measure Implementation Report.

Completion of this task is not funded. This task makes up approximately 10% of the CMI phase. It was not active during Quarter 6, and no actions are anticipated during Quarter 7.

Schedule

A master schedule detailing all of the required environmental activities specified in the Order, along with project activities under contract, was included in the Quarter 2 Progress Report.

Specific activities planned for the next quarter were described in the preceding sections.

Project Tasks and Costs Incurred to Date

Work at CSSA is currently being conducted under eight projects. The tasks included in each project and the percent complete are included in the Table 1. As required by item VI.5.h of the order, a statement reflecting the percentage of work accomplished thus far within the fiscal year and the percentage of funds expended to date will be reported in the progress report for Quarter 3 and every third progress report thereafter. A fiscal update, through Quarter 6, is included as Attachment 4.

Project Contacts

Contact information for key personnel involved with the CSSA projects are included in Table 2.

Other

An on-site GIS presentation was made to CSSA and AFCEE on August 17, 2000. The presentation included a demonstration to the CSSA Commander and the facility engineering department. The presentation illustrated the concepts of utilizing GIS in the work place, and the applications already available through the infrastructure portion of the CSSA database. The environmental portion of the database was discussed with CSSA and AFCEE environmental staff. Issues regarding the compatibility between the TSSDS and ERPIMS data structures were identified and discussed. A demonstration of the data entry system was also provided. 

In addition, QA/QC procedures for both field sampling and data entry were discussed. The frequency at which duplicates and MS/MSD samples are submitted were reviewed, and it is was agreed that the program will continue under the same procedures.

Technical Interchange Meeting (TIM) #4 for RL74 was held at CSSA on September 5, 2000. Those in attendance included representatives from CSSA, AFCEE, WPI, and Parsons ES. In that meeting, an overall project status update for each currently funded project at CSSA was given. Parsons also provided an update regarding those IM activities currently being performed at SWMU B-10, and the estimated costs and actions necessary to complete the excavation activities based upon the changing field conditions. Reporting format and content for the Soil Pile Disposition Assessment Report and the O-1 IM/Closure Report were discussed.

On October 5, 2000 Parsons ES installed the CSSA GIS database, spatial (map) files, and a customized ESRI ArcView project for decision support at AFCEE. The visit included the uploading and testing of the GIS to the AFCEE SQL Server, as well as instruction in implementing the Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the retrieval and display of environmental sampling and analysis data from the GIS database.

During Quarter 6, CSSA and AFCEE finalized the Scope of Work for a new AETC RFI delivery order (DO 5084). New tasks included in this delivery order will include Phase II RFIs at AOCs 65 and 67, as well as a soil gas survey in the southwest quadrant of CSSA. Also included in this delivery order will be four rounds of onsite monitoring and six rounds of monitoring at 20 offsite locations, and a Drought Contingency Plan. The new delivery order will also fund the continuation of the TIMs, Community Relations Plan updates and fact sheets, and Quarterly Progress Reporting. The kick-off meeting for this delivery order was held at CSSA on October 3, 2000.

Susan Roberts has been identified as the Parsons ES project liaison for all CSSA work.
