Area 5 consists ofa 2000-meter range, a 1000-meter range, a 150-meter range, and a 100-meter range based on a schematic diagram ofproposed activities at the J-l ranges, as illustrated in Figure A.12-3. The 2000-meter range ends in the Impact Area at a location that has been identified as a separate area ofconcern. This location, Area 4, has a separate Field Sampling Plan that describes investigations under the Impact Area Groundwater Study. The schematic in Figure A.12-3 shows two bunkers and four storage buildings located at the southeastern end ofthe J-l range, none ofwhich are visible today. All other structures, mounds, and borrow areas shown on the schematic are still visible today, although the extension ofthe tunnel barriers shown on the schematic does not appearto have occurred. Features currently visible on the three shorter ranges are illustrated in # Figures A.12-4 and A.12-5 and the accompanying photographs. The 1000-meter range appears to extend from the southeast end ofthe J-l range through two tunnel barriers, which each consist of8-foot diameter concrete pipe passing through a 40- to 60-foot high earth mound (Figure A.12-5, Photographs G and H). Steel plates are present at the entrances to these tunnel barriers, and may have been used as targets. The 1000-meter range terminates at steel plate targets laid on a45-foot high earthen backstop (Figure A.12-4, Photographs C and D). The 150-meter range extends from near the instrumentation bunker to a 30-foot high earth mound to the northwest (Figure A.12-4, Photograph F). A steel "burn kettle" (Photograph B) ofa type reportedly used for munitions disposal by burning is located near the bunker (Photograph A). Several low earth berms are located north ofthe 150- meter backstop (Photograph E); their function is unknown at this time. The 100-meter range extends from the southeast end ofthe J-l range to the southeast tunnel barrier mound (Figure A.12-5). This mound has a steel plate inclined at a 10-20 degree angle downward into the mound (Photograph H), which may have been used as a target forthe 100-meter range. Two pits containing munitions are located on the southwest side ofTank Alley in the vicinity ofthe 1000-meter range (Figure A.12-4). The northern location is directly across Tank Alley less than 100 feet from the 150-meter backstop. This location has steel plate sides, and a steel plate, which may have been used for a lid, is located nearby L:\MMR\Plans\Final\area5\FFSP12.doc 1 01/19/98 Final FSP Area 5 GURE F I MMR-Area 5VicinityMap A.12-1 L:\MMR\Plans\Final\area5\FFSP12.doc 01/19/98 Final FSP Area 5 A.6-2 (seeArea 4 FSP) Legend »'V ClearedAreas NA/ Mounds Roads /V FigureLocations /V Ranges /V ElevationContour B Control Soil SampleLocation F I G U R E IMS Area5SamplingPoints A.12-2 fr«/p*Wo«ijuAnrrrTtaA/Wir.*p«)ilAm.icn/pk**fi«uret/iiw5..fiji12-2judI L:\MMRVPIans\Final\area5\FFSP12.doc 01/19/98 Final FSP Area 5 OM E* HO n Sa Figure A.12-3.
