Public Health Assessment for Fort Eustis (US Army), Newport News, Newport NewsCounty, Virginia, Region 3. CERCLIS No. VA6210020321

摘要

Fort Eustis was proposed for the EPA National Priorities List in January 1994,and listed in December 1994. The principal exposure pathway of concern is the consumption of PCB-contaminated fish from Bailey's Creek, Brown's Lake and Eustis Lake. It is unlikely that fish from any of the three water bodies have been consumed frequently enough to result in public health hazard. Contaminant levels in surface water at Fort Eustis are not sufficiently high to present a public health hazard. Sediment contamination levels are frequency and duration of contact do not present a public health hazard. Groundwater in localized plumes is not used for drinking water or other domestic uses. Soil contamination at Fort Eustis is limited to localized areas.
