Book excerpt: This Addendum to the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) Technical Plan outlines the overall approach and defines the activities required to provide a comprehensive study of previously identified sites at the U.S. Army Jefferson Proving Ground (JPG) in Madison, Indiana. The original Work Plans covering the first 21 sites were developed and provided to the U.S. Army Environmental Center (USAEC) under Contract No. DAAA15-90-D-0007, Task Order 0002. The final Work Plans were submitted in September of 1992. The RI/FS is being performed in support of USAEC under Contract No. DAAA15-90-D-0007, Task Order 0005. A modification to Task Order 0005 was issued, calling for the investigation of an additional 29 sites. Thus, addenda to the final Work Plans were required. The sites to be characterized under these plans generally represent those sites located in the area south of the firing line requiring additional studies to satisfy the requirements of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA 1986); the National Contingency Plan (40 CFR Part 300); and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The RI/FS to be conducted is required to: * Define extent and magnitude of environmental contamination at JPG in the area south of the firing line, * Assess human health and environmental risk associated with contamination at the identified sites at JPG, * Determine needs for remedial action at JPG, and * Develop and evaluate remedial-action alternatives. This report is an Addendum to the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) Technical Plan Volume I.
