Biological Warfare Agents

[Ted Henry <thenry@umaryland.edu>]

Dear fellow listservees

As APG is one of the premiere military sites for confirmed and potential
contamination, including chemical-filled unexploded ordnance, depleted
uranium, VOC plumes, creek sediment contamination, land-filled marshes and
explosives in public drinking water, my work leads me to ask the following
questions:

1. What military sites have found or discussed the presence of
biological warfare agents (BWA)?

FYI to generate thought - I am thus far aware of three potential areas
where the discussion may have taken place, including Wright-Patterson AFB
(from my information believed to have recovered dummy vials of BWA),
Defense Depot Ogden Utah (from my information it is thought they recovered
vials that were not dummy-filled) and it appears Dugway conducted an
environmental assessment of a Bio Test Area.

Disclaimer to avoid misunderstanding - Of course, this information may be
clarified or otherwise corrected in the future as I have not obtained
documentation on these three sites.

2. If this has been a topic of any military presentation to citizens at a
RAB or elsewhere, what type of information was presented?

Sincerely

Ted Henry
