The book evaluates the closure planning process as well as some aspects of closure operations that are taking place while the facilities are still disposing of agent. These facilities are located in Anniston, Alabama; Pine Bluff, Arkansas; Tooele, Utah; and Umatilla, Oregon. They are designated by the acronyms ANCDF, PBCDF, TOCDF, and UMCDF, respectively. Although the facilities all use the same technology and are in many ways identical, each has a particular set of challenges Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Print version record Subject Chemical weapons disposal -- United States -- Planning Hazardous waste treatment facilities -- United States Hazardous wastes -- Incineration -- United States TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING -- Military Science.
