The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, shall enforce compliance with the Endangered Species Act against the Grantee, its successors and. assigns. f. Notice ofi Aboveground and Underground Storage Tanks The Grantee is hereby informed and does acknowledge that Aboveground and Underground Storage Tanks that contained gasoline, diesel, and. heating oil were formerly located on the premises from 1957 to 2005. All tanks were removed no later than 2005. g. Notice of the PatentiaX Presence of Munitions and Explosives of Concern (MEC) l . The Grantee is hereby notified that due to the former use of the Property as a military installation, the Property may contain munitions and explosives of concern (MEC). The term MEC means specific categories of military munitions that may ease unique explosives safety risks and includes: (1) Unexploded Ordnance (UXO), as defined in 10 U.S.C. §101(e)(5); (2) Discarded military munitions (DMM), as defined in 10 U.S.C. §2710(e)(2); or (3) Munitions constituents (e.g., TNT, RDX), as defined in 10 U.S.C. §2710(e)(3), present in high enough concentrations to pose an explosive hazard. 2. The Property (specifically Laad Line 4) was previously used as load, assemble and pack (LAP) facilities for the production of artillery shells, mines, bombs, and rockets. The following munitions responses were conducted. (a) In 2005, a geophysical survey and anomaly investigation of Load Line 4 was conducted, as part of activities designed to certify the load line property safe for transfer. The purpose of these investigations was to locate potential buried MEC items at the load line. This work was performed in accordance with applicable regulations and in accordance with the Defense Department Explosive Safety Board. (DDESB)-approved Explosive Safety Submission (ESS). The investigations were conducted at areas outside the building footprints. Following geophysical mapping of anomalies, intrusive investigation of the anomalies was conducted. At Load Line 4, a total of 3,393 anomalies were dug, the majority of which were buried metal objects related to farming or construction activities. Thirty-four munitions debris items consisting of 33 inert booster adapters and one inert nose fuse were found. No items considered to be MEC were found during this effort. (b) Approximately 41,300 linear feet of underground water supply lines (this total is based on as-built drawings) were visually inspected and field screened for explosives at a limited number of locations. The locations chosen for inspection and screening were representative of the various branches of the water supply lines. With the exception of the northeast water main 8
