West Mesa Project SummaryWest Mesa Project SummaryWest Mesa Project SummaryWest Mesa Project Summary• The Kirtland AFB Precision Bombing Range

is a Formerly Used Defense Site– Evaluations and investigations compliant with

CERCLA– FUDS Eligibility

• Properties owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by the Department of Defense

• Property transferred before 1986

– Project Eligibility• Department of Defense impacts identified• No Department of Defense use after 1986• Projects with other Responsible Parties not eligible for

FUDS funding (in other words, FUDS funding can not be used to restore environmental damages caused by non-defense related activities)
