Estimated Workload Data

This information is provided for historical background only. It is not a guarantee of workload quantities.

Historically, the 171st ARW has required roughly 100,000 – 150,000 U.S. Gallons of glycol wastewater mixture to be removed and disposed of annually, concentrated in the January to April timeframe.
