Health Assessment for Moffett Naval Air Station National Priorities List (NPL) Site, Sunnyvale, Santa Clara County, California, Region 9. CERCLIS No. CA2170090078

摘要

The Moffett Naval Air Station site is on the National Priorities List. A total of 81 areas (landfills, holding ponds, underground storage tanks, sumps, oil/water separators, bermed pits) have been identified in which wastes were placed. Some of these areas are still active disposal or storage areas. On-site contamination consists of trichloroethylene, trichloroethane, and perchloroethylene in groundwater and soil, respectively. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), various pesticides, aviation fuels and oils, and other organic solvents are suspected to be on-site, but data on the concentrations in environmental media are not available. The site is considered to be of potential public health concern because of the risk to human health caused by the possibility of exposure to hazardous substances via contaminated groundwater, soil, surface water, and leachate.
