| REVA Reports (Range Environmental Vulnerability Assessment) |
The purpose of REVA is to identify whether there is a release or substantial threat of a release of munitions constituents (MC) from the operational range or range
complex areas to off-range areas. This is accomplished through the use of fate and transport modeling and analysis of the indicator MC based upon site-specific
environmental conditions at the operational ranges and training areas at an installation.
This report presents the assessment results for the operational ranges and training areas at Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) Parris Island, South
Carolina. This report is the first comprehensive report on MC associated with the operational ranges at
MCRD Parris Island and serves as the baseline of environmental conditions of the ranges.
