Current PFAS/PFOA Remedial Program efforts on Fort Wainwright

Fort Wainwright's Restoration Program Manager, Seth Reedy provides an overview of programs concerning the presence of PFAS and PFOA on the installation. Reedy outlines how the Army is conducting research to identify all locations where release of PFAS and PFOA have taken place and to ensure the community that the Army's priority is that no one is drinking water above the EPA’s lifetime health advisory levels as a result of Army operations.

New warming maintenance facilities at Fort Wainwright

Capt. Cameron McDonald, Forward Support Company Echo commander, 70th Brigade Engineer Battalion, 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, provides insight into the use of new warming maintenance facilities at Fort Wainwright, Alaska.

In support of enduring Quality of Life improvement projects, eight warming facilities were built around post and are now turned over to local units. Each one of these facilities allows for the storage of over 20 vehicles and other temperature-sensitive equipment -- enabling the BEB and other units to remain ready to rapidly deploy, fight and win in these sub-arctic environments.
