Description: The contents of this dataset provides an inventory of Unexploded Ordinance (UXO) and Impact Areas within the County of San Diego's jurisdiction. The content includes a risk assessment for each site calculated by the Department of Defense.Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS)FUDS are real properties that were under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Defense and owned by, leased by, or otherwise possessed by the United States. FUDS are located throughout the United States and in many cases the ownership of these properties have been transferred to private individuals, corporations, state and local governments, federal agencies, and tribal governments. FUDS include, but are not limited to:- Hazardous, toxic and radioactive waste (HTRW)- Military munitions including munitions constituents- Containerized HTRW;- Building demolition and debris removal; and- Potentially responsible party sites (Government shares burden with private entity).USACE catalogs all FUDS properties in their site inventory3, which details property locations, property number, and status of potentially hazardous findings. Once the property is confirmed as being formerly used by a defense agency, it is entered into the FUDS inventory. If contamination resulting from past Defense practices exists, an investigation must be conducted to determine the extent of the contamination and the appropriate response. Once these two phases are completed a cleanup process will begin to reduce the risk to human health and the environment, or to improve public safety. Cleanup activities are accomplished based on priority-sites posing the greatest risks are addressed first. There are approximately 146 FUDS in San Diego County including FUDS within incorporated cities. Some of these FUDS, whose history dates back to World War II, were military camps which included troop training and bombing ranges. Many FUDS have potential hazardous waste contamination problems such as disposal areas and leaking underground storage tanks. Other FUDS utilized practice rounds for training, and some FUDS used live munitions and explosives, known collectively as ordnance and explosives, or OE. The live munitions that were fired but did not detonate are known as unexploded ordnance, or UXO. The UXO that remain on FUDS properties today pose the greatest safety hazard to the public, if they are disturbed. Records for FUDS show that after the military used the property for military exercises an OE sweep was usually done and the property was then released for private and public use. However, history has shown that the OE sweeps were not completely effective and many OE and UXO remain on FUDS sites.3 Available online at http://hq.environmental.usace.army.mil/programs/fuds/fudsinv/fudsinv.html
