Abstract	The proposed Tri-County Public Airport (TCPA) National Priorities List site is a former World War II Army Airfield. During its peak operating period the airfield consisted of more than 300 buildings and housed approximately 2,000 personnel. The airfield had a waste water treatment plant, a 200,000-gallon fuel storage tank, warehouse area, barracks, and a recreation area. The airfield was officially declared surplus in 1946 and deeded to the city of Herrington, Kansas in 1948. Most of the 300 buildings and structures previously at the airfield have been removed, but two hangars, a water tower, several water supply wells, and a few small buildings remain. From 1948 to the present, the site has been leased to a number of companies for various purposes. Operations at the site have included, but are not limited to, aircraft storage, the manufacturing of farm implements, black powder manufacture, and the manufacture of roofing materials.
