AFCEC Installation Restoration Program

The Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) Installation Restoration Program (IRP) at JBCC cleans up soil and groundwater contamination resulting from historic military use of the southern portion of JBCC. Fuels, solvents, 1,4-dioxane, per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and military munitions are investigated by the IRP. The Air Force is the lead agency responsible for the IRP. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection oversee the Air Force's cleanup efforts. The Air Force also works with local and state public health officials and will continue to take response actions to eliminate exposure pathways that could put people at risk from base-related contamination.

Public Comment Period

A 30-day public comment period will be held November 1-30, 2024, on the Draft Final Decision Document NFRAP Rifle Range and No Further Action Area MRS at the Otis Gun Club Munitions Response Area. Based on the conditions at the Rifle Range MRS and the No Further Action Area MRS, AFCEC has determined: (1) there is no evidence of materials of explosive concern or munitions constituents; (2) there is no present risk to human health or the environment. Therefore, a no further action decision is appropriate under CERCLA and the Rifle Range MRS and the No Further Action Area MRS can be classified as NFRAP.
