1.0 PURPOSE. The purpose of RUXOR activities is to recover, handle, demilitarize, and dispose of RUXOR resulting from past and present operations.

2.0 GENERAL.

2.1. RUXOR is composed of unexploded ordnance, the remains of live/inert ordnance items, targets, structures, and other debris on the range. RUXOR may contain explosives, ignitable material, Low-Level Radioactive Materials (LLRM), military controlled items, RCRA controlled material, recyclable material and trash. Legacy RUXOR is material that has accumulated over a period of time from past operations. Sustainment operations are the recovery and disposal of material associated with current range operations and are an integral consideration on all current test missions IAW 96 TW policies.

2.2. Range residue requires special handling procedures.

These activities include locating, identifying, collecting, and transporting RUXOR to designated holding areas, segregating RUXOR for recycling and disposal, accomplishing necessary demilitarization, certifying and verifying material is free from explosive and radioactive materials, preparing material for disposal or recycling, and providing RUXOR data.

RUXOR data includes known and suspected RUXOR locations and quantities and types of RUXOR processed.

3.2. The Contractor shall provide RUXOR clearance operations including documentation, recovery, and disposal as an integral part of standard range operation and maintenance. Contractor-generated operating procedures shall be IAW established federal, state, local, and AF procedures.
