The problem is with the analysis," [Michael Sommer] says. "This isn't just a homogenous liquid. It has a solid layer and an organic layer. They only test in the inorganic phase. VX can re-form in the organic phase. Think of, say, olive oil and water. The oil floats on the top. When you stick a probe into the middle, you aren't finding everything that's in there. In my opinion they [the Army] don't use acceptable testing methods. Plus, they are only testing for two chemicals, VX and another almost as toxic, EA 2192. The neutralization process results in many chemicals that are extremely toxic. I don't think they even know what all is in it. "We don't need them," says Veolia's Duncan. "We don't do continuous monitoring of individual hazardous wastes. We monitor the emission of things li...

An anti-incineration activist says the Army has been studying a transportation corridor by which chemical weapons would be shipped from Colorado to the Tooele County incinerator. Craig Williams, director of the Chemical Weapons Working Group, based in Berea, Ky., told reporters in a teleconference this past week that such a route is under study.
WASHINGTON - A federal judge in Indianapolis will hear arguments today in a case that could stop the U.S. Army's shipment through Memphis of a hazardous and corrosive byproduct of neutralized VX nerve agent. The Sierra Club and the Chemical Weapons Working Group, a Kentucky-based environmental activist organization devoted to the safe elimination of chemical weapons, are seeking a preliminary injunction to stop the shipments from Newport, Ind., to an incinerator at an environmental services company in Port Arthur, Texas.
INDIANAPOLIS - An Army contractor has finished three years of work on destroying a deadly nerve agent stored in western Indiana and now is moving ahead to dismantle the equipment built for the billion-dollar project, officials said Monday. The final container of VX nerve agent was destroyed late Friday at the Newport Chemical Depot, eliminating the last of about 275,000 gallons of the nerve agent the site had stored, said Jeff Brubaker, the Army's site manager.

Activists are calling for the Army to install a new $25 million monitoring system at chemical weapons destruction plants around the country. But an Army spokesman in Utah says the technology cited is for battlefield levels of chemical agents. Chemical Weapons Working Group and other anti-incinerator activists held a telephone press conference Tuesday to call for a new type of chemical weapon monitor to be installed at disposal plants around the country.
