DC Millitary Installations: The Hazardous Waste Division also ensures that DC military installation restoration projects are completed in accordance with District of Columbia environmental laws and regulations. Hazardous Waste staff work under an agreement with the US Department of Defense to provide technical review and guidance to military services for installation restoration projects at active military sites and formerly used defense sites in the District of Columbia. These sites include the Washington Navy Yard, which is the District’s only Superfund site; Bolling Air Force Base and Spring Valley, a World War I munitions testing site in Northwest DC. Activities include technical review of work plans and reports, site visits, attendance at regular technical meetings, and participation in community outreach activities such as Restoration Advisory Board meetings.
