BACKGROUND:

Ellyson Field was commissioned by the US Navy in 1941 as an auxiliary Field for the Pensacola Naval Air Station. In 1979 the Navy declared the entire site and improvements in excess and in 1981 the General Services Administration (GSA) conveyed the entire facility to the Pensacola-Escambia Promotion & Development Commission, a public corporation. Most of the parcels have been sold to private interests and Escambia County has retained several parcels. In 1994 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) conducted an Inventory Project Report (INPR) for Containerized Hazardous ,Toxic, and Radioactive Waste (Con/HTRW), project number 104FL098101. This report identified multiple USTs and soil contamination for remediation. The USACOE is the the responsible party for all environmental assessment and cleanup under the project CON/HTRW project #104FL098101. This Right of Entry agreement grants the USACOE permission to access County property at Ellyson Field to conduct the ongoing the environmental site assessment.
