American University Experiment Station AUES

Historical documents can provide clues to where burials or contamination are likely. Most of the experiments at the American University Experiment Station (AUES) were recorded and often included a diagram. For example, if there were only two or three sets of circular trenches and if the experiment shows a circular trench, this narrows down the location where it occurred. If the experiment indicates that two shells did not fire, one can conclude that there may be a burial site for UXO near the trenches. Historical documents may suggest what contamination to include in a search.

Finally, the Report states in the first sentence, In accordance with the revised Final Work Management Plan for Follow-on Sampling for OU-4 Residential Lots, Amendment 2 (Parsons, April 2001), Parsons (a leading environmental remediation firm) collected soil samples from four OU-4 residences to assess for the presence of the American University Experiment Station (AUES) list of chemicals. The District must know how samples collected in February 2001 could be in accordance with a plan amended in April 2001. 

Many people contributed to my success with the American University Experiment Station (AUES), or Spring Valley, and thereby indirectly to this book. This list is in a time sequence of some of the main players. 

During World War I, the main American Chemical Warfare Service (CWS) unit, the American University Experiment Station (AUES), was conducting research and experiments in order to develop new chemical warfare agents. The information from Nieuwland s thesis became of interest to Winford...
