Phase 2 of a remedial investigation (RI) has been conducted at the U.S. Army Materials Technology Laboratory (MTL) in Watertown, Massachusetts. The U.S. Army Environmental Center, New England Division, contracted with Roy F. Weston, Inc. (WESTON) under the Base Closure Program Contract Number DAA15-9O-D-0009, Task Order 1, to complete, among other tasks, the Phase 2 RI at MTL. After the Phase 1 RI was initiated, MTL was recommended for closure by the Defense Secretary's Commission on Base Realignment and Closures. The original objectives of the Phase 1 RI did not include assessing concerns associated with future unlimited use of the site by the public after the closure of MTL. To do so, sampling in buildings, as well as more extensive environmental sampling and risk assessment, was required. This additional information was collected during the Phase 2 RI to properly evaluate potential remedial measures that would allow subsequent land use consistent with assigned reuse.

The U.S. Army is proposing a cleanup plan, referred to as a preferred alternative, to address outdoor contamination at the MTL Superfund site in Watertown, Massachusetts. The Proposed Plan recommends one of the cleanup options from among those that were evaluated during the Remedial Investigation (RI)* and Feasibility Study (FS) performed for the site. In accordance with Section 117(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), the Army is publishing this Proposed Plan to provide opportunity for public review and comment on the cleanup alternatives, known as remedial alternatives, under consideration for the site. The Army is soliciting comments on the proposed level of cleanup. The Army will consider public comments as part of the final decision-making process for selecting the cleanup remedy for the site.

This report builds on previous cultural-resource work at the Army Material Testing Laboratory (AMTL) in order more accurately to define the areas within the Laboratory that may contain subsurface remains of historic or prehistoric resources. The three most relevant studies to this effort to date are the Public Archaeology Laboratory (PAL) report (Historic and Prehistoric Reconnaissance Survey, Army Materials Technology Laboratory, Watertown MA [Fitch 1989]), the Envirosphere overview (Archaeological Overviews and Management Man (sic) for the Army Materials and Mechanics Research Center [Klein, et al. 1984]) referred to throughout the PAL report, and the report of the Harvard Institute for Conservation Archaeology's Data Recovery project at the Amphitheater Site just outside the current site limits (The Amphitheater Site: A Late Archaic Settlement in Watertown Massachusetts [Barfield & Barber 1982]). AMTL is immediately adjacent to the Charles River in Watertown Massachusetts. Figure 1 illustrates its location, while Figure 2 is a more detailed map of the project area. Figure 3 illustrates the surface topography defining a slight downward slope toward the Charles River. This slope, over the years has been filled to level it for more efficient use. The analysis described in this report confirms much of PAL's earlier work while filling in the gaps identified by PAL and providing data relative to actual disturbance that was only speculated upon in the earlier work.
