Air Force taking action to clean Montana nuclear missile sites after finding possible carcinogens
said Monday that it is taking"immediate measures" to clean up and mitigate polychlorinated biphenyls – probable human carcinogens, also known as PCBs – at two Montana locations following initial results from a recent study.
The U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine and the Defense Centers for Public Health conducted air and swipe testing for PCBs and other contaminants at Malmstrom AFB from June 22-29. All air samples from the Launch Control Centers and the Launch Control Support Building were non-detectable for PCBs.
The results are pending from samples taken a Wyoming's F.E. Warren Air Force Base and North Dakota's Minot Air Force Base, analyzing both air and surface tests. The Air Force Global Strike Command noted that the intercontinental ballistic missile nuclear alert mission continues throughout the cleanup and mitigation.
