Book excerpt: The study concerned seven sites at MacDill AFB and three sites at Avon Park Air Force Range (AFR). Five of the sites were former landfills, two were fuel storage areas, one was a pair of fire training areas, one was a drum storage area, and one was a pesticide rinse water basin. The Phase IIb contractor installed monitor wells in the water table aquifer downgradient of each site to determine whether these sites were sources of groundwater contamination. Most of these analyses were screening tests phenolics, oil and grease, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total organic halides (RTOX), specific conductance, and pH which are nonspecific indicators of contamination. The list of analyses also included specific analyses for purgeable organics (solvents), oranochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and lead for sites where these specific analyses were deemed appropriate. Results of the organic screening analyses were positive for every site except the pesticide rinse water basin at Avon Park AFR at which there was no evidence of contamination.
