This is the very problem (Funding) that RAB's have.  I have stated this 
many times on this list. RAB's can only address the sites that are listed 
as SWMU's, Solid Waste Management Units.

All other sites are cleaned up as the DOD wants.  What a sham.  A building 
is considered not part of the RAB's job but any thing washed out of the 
building onto the ground is.

So the ground is cleaned up and the building, foundation and explosive 
contaminated sewer line is still there and the site is still contaminated.
