ATSDR - PHA - Anderson Air Force Base, Yigo, Guam
The three Northern communities (Yigo, Dededo, and Tamuning) bordering Andersen AFBproperty contain approximately 47% of the islands population. Yigo and Dededo arelocated within a mile from military property and their water supplies are downgradient ofknown groundwater contamination plumes underlying Andersen AFB. A groundwaterplume from an unknown source appears to be originating from an area near the MARBOAnnex. Continued monitoring of groundwater contamination by both the Air Force andGuam regulatory agencies is critical to ensure that the water resources that off-basecommunities rely upon is protected from contamination. Due to the proximity of private and municipal wells serving communities in the vicinity ofthe base, Andersen AFB continues to monitor off base groundwater plumes to ensure thatthese wells do not become contaminated. ...

ATSDR - PHA - Anderson Air Force Base, Yigo, Guam
ATSDR, in considering future land use, assumes that the mission to support Andersen AFB will staythe same. Any changes at Andersen AFB will likely serve to increase the functional efficiency ofbase operations. Certain Andersen AFB-controlled land will be returned to the government of Guamfor public use. The Guam Land Use Plan of 1977 recommended the release of DOD-controlledproperty and recent legislation (Public Law 103-339) calls for the transfer of the Andersen AFBproperty, including Harmon Annex, Andersen Administrative Annex, and Andersen Radio Beacon,to the government of Guam (Andersen AFB 1999a). Other land along the northern tip of AndersenAFB's Northwest Field will be transferred to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. ... [Read More]

ATSDR - PHA - Anderson Air Force Base, Yigo, Guam
Since the 1950s, Andersen AFB has operated a water distribution system. Water drawn from each production well enters the base's looped distribution system, where it is blended with water from other wells before being distributed to Booster Stations 2 and 3 for chlorination (SAIC 1991; Andersen AFB 1999a). Groundwater from MW-1 and MW-3 are generally treated at Booster Station 2 (as were MW-2 and the Tumon-Maui when they were on line). Occasionally, all water is treated at Booster Station 3. (Two air stripping towers have also been added to Booster Station 2 to remove volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, from water originating from MW-2 and the Tumon-Maui well.) The water is then stored at one of three larger or several smaller water storage tanks, including Tank No. 2, located at Booster Station 2, Tank No. 4, located at Booster Station 3, and the Santa Rosa Reservoir. The Santa Rosa Reservoir (the largest tank, with a capacity of 2 million gallons) provides pressure for the distributi ... [Read More]

ATSDR - PHA - Anderson Air Force Base, Yigo, Guam
The Air Force, Guam Environmental Protection Agency (GEPA), and U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), agencies overseeing remediation at the base,are well aware of the groundwater contamination issue at Andersen AFB. With GEPAand EPA oversight, Andersen Air Force Base (Andersen AFB) routinely collectsgroundwater samples from a network of groundwater monitoring wells to trackgroundwater contamination. Through this effort, Andersen AFB has identified thehighest levels of TCE within base property, at the northwest side of the MARBOAnnex (in the Yigo Subbasin) near the Waste Transfer Stations. Additionally, elevatedlevels of PCE have been measured in monitoring wells adjacent to the MARBOAnnex laundry. Andersen AFB has committed to a long-term groundwater monitoringprogram to ensure that contamination does not threaten local or base water supplies inthe future. ... [Read More]
