Mustard Leak Identified In Army Storage Magazine

Richmond, Kentucky Trace levels of mustard vapors were detected in one of the CWM munitions storage igloos during a routine weekly monitoring event at the Blue Grass Army Depot. The Army plans to conduct further investigations to identify which munition(s) in the storage igloo is leaking. Once the munition has been identified, it will be over-packed and moved to a separate storage area where it will be held until it can be properly disposed of. The Army reported that the leak does not pose a danger or risk to the general public outside of the installation.
