Plum Brook Sampling:

Between November 2005 and February 2008, NASA conducted an extensive off-site sampling program. It involved collecting and analyzing some 2,100 sediment samples near Plum Brook in an area extending from Plum Brook Station to East Sandusky Bay.  None of the samples posed a public health concern. For details, please read the following Fact Sheets: Plum Brook Off-site Sampling Update, October 2008; Results of Off-site Sampling April  2006; and Results of Off-site Sampling, January 2006

Copies of the listed fact sheets are available at the Decommissioning Community Information Bank, located in the BGSU Firelands Library (Foundation Hall, One University Drive, Huron).
