      The U.S. Army Program Manager for Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives (PMACWA) is charged with disposing of chemical weapons as stored at two sites: Pueblo, Colorado, and Blue Grass, Kentucky. In accordance with congressional mandates, technologies other than incineration are to be used if they are as safe and as cost effective. The weapons are to be disposed of in compliance with the Chemical Weapons Convention. Although an element of the U.S. Army, the PMACWA is responsible to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Acquisitions, Technology, and Logistics for completing this mission.This book deals with the expected significant quantities of secondary wastes that will be generated during operations of the facilities and their closure. While there are only estimates for the waste quantities that will be generated, they provide a good basis for planning and developing alternatives for waste disposal while the plants are still in the design phase. Establishing efficient disposal options for the secondary wastes can enable more timely and cost-effective operation and closure of the facilities.Table of ContentsFront MatterSummary1 Introduction2 BGCAPP and PCAPP Process Descriptions and Secondary WasteGeneration3 Regulatory Requirements Applicable to BGCAPP and PCAPP SecondaryWaste Management4 Status of Planning for the Management of Secondary Wastes atBGCAPP and PCAPP5 Public Participation6 Alternative Offsite Waste Management OptionsReferencesAppendix A: National Research Council Reports on the AssembledChemical Weapons Assessment/Alternatives ProgramAppendix B: Definition of "Generator Knowledge"Appendix C: Physical Properties of Chemical Agents in MunitionsStored at Blue Grass Army Depot and Pueblo Chemical DepotAppendix D: Results from Technical Risk Reduction Program Activity2a, Phase II, for GB and Activity 11 for VXAppendix E: Committee Meetings and Site VisitsAppendix F: Biographical Sketches of Committee Members
