Book excerpt: This Site-Specific Environmental Baseline Survey (SSEBS) documents a preliminary assessment of the environmental condition of the property occupied by the Main Hospital Building, Building No. 500 at United States Army Garrison, Fitzsimons (Fitzsimons) in Aurora, Colorado. Fitzsimons was formerly known as Fitzsimons Army Medical Center (FAMC), which was selected for closure by the Secretary of Defense in 1995 under Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC). The University of Colorado Health Science Center (UCHSC), in coordination with the Fitzsimons Redevelopment Authority (FRA), is pursuing the lease of Building No. 500 for use as administrative offices and a medical clinic. The U.S. Army has an obligation by law to identify and remediate environmental problems before lease or transfer to the public. Consequently, the interest to lease the building by UCHSC has provided the impetus for the Army to undertake this SSEBS. The SSEBS is the second step in the process to identify the condition of the property, the need for environmental restoration, and suitability for lease or transfer. The first step in this process was the development of a site-wide Environmental Baseline Survey (EBS) for Fitzsimons. The Final EBS for Fitzsimons was issued on 31 May 1996, and identified Building No. 500 as an area for further investigation.
