Appendix E
Examples of Information Required for Two Types of Final Closure Survey Reports

As JACADS solid waste management units (SWMUs) are remediated, samples will have to be collected, identified, and analyzed to determine if EPA-approved closure end points have been met. The complete list of contaminants that will be evaluated should be included in the RCRA Facility Investigation (RFI) Sampling and Analysis Plan and the final sampling results presented to EPA in a RCRA Facility Investigation report. Box E-1 typifies a table of contents from a report on an industrial facility RFI postclosure. It can be used as a guide during the development and preparation of the postclosure report for the JACADS facility or any other Army chemical agent disposal facility.

As specific areas are remediated during facility closeout, it may be desirable to obtain conditional EPA acceptance of these areas. Box E-2 typifies a table of contents from an Interim Remedial Measures Report for an industrial facility. It lists the areas covered in the report for documenting that contaminant levels were below EPA standards for soil and groundwater following the cleanup effort.
