摘要

Harding Lawson Associates (HLA) has prepared this Remedial Investigation (RI) Report on Area of Contamination (AOC) 57 to support Task Order 001 of Contract DACA-31-94-D-0061 under the oversight of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - New England District. This RI Report details the results of the RI and previous investigations completed at AOC 57 Areas 1, 2, and 3. Fort Devens was identified for cessation of operations and closure under Public Law 101-510, the Defense Base Realignment and Closure Act of 1990, and was officially closed in September 1996. Portions of the property formerly occupied by Fort Devens were retained by the Army for reserve forces training and renamed the Devens Reserve Forces Training Area (RFTA). Areas not retained as part of the Devens RFTA were, or are in the process of being, transferred to new owners for reuse and redevelopment. AOC 57 is located in an area planned for transfer to the Massachusetts Government Land Bank for industrial/trade related development and recreation/open space.
