Title

Time Critical Removal Action for the Hamilton North Antenna Field, Hamilton Army Airfiled, Novato, California

Description

The Hamilton North Antenna Filed (NAF) is a 270-acre parcel located north of the former Hamilton Army Airfield in Novato, California. The site is owned by the California State Lands Commission and was previously owned and operated by the Army as a rifle range and an antenna field with associated support buildings. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS) program is responsible for site remediation of the Hamilton NAF. The Hamilton NAF is planned to eventually be incorporated into the current congressionally authorized Hamilton Wetlands Restoration Project (HWRP). Based on historic sampling results, of the anticipated 90,000 cubic yards of material planned for excavation, at least 25,000 cubic yards will require disposal at an off-site appropriately permitted landfill, and the remaining 65,000 cubic yards may be suitable as a reusable material. Throughout the proposed project, dust control activities will be implemented in accordance with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BBAQMD) CEQA Guidelines.
