Langley Air Force Base, VA
Wipe out during Hurricane Isabel, we were hired to rebuild the one of the premier golf courses in the Air Force system. Little did we know when planning that the golf course was used as one of the first bombing ranges in the world back during WWI. After grading began we quickly discovered unexploded ordinance (UXO) (bombs). We stopped to investigate and discovered over 16,000 pieces of UXO up to and including 500 lb bombs. We spent almost a year remediating (removing, exploding) the UXO’s before work could continue. Set to open in May of 2008. (no photos yet)
