Values are for surface soils except where noted. The following undetected analytes were excluded from the table: HMX, RDX,
4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene, 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene, 1,3-dinitrobenzene, 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, 3,5-dinitroanaline, 3,5-
dinitrotoluene, 2,4,5-trinitrotoluene, 2,3,4-trinitrotoluene, 3-nitroaniline.

Locations are distances relative to the muzzle of the gun: R = to the right, L = to the left, C = directly in center front. Depth in cm
is also given for samples not taken from the surface.
3
Less than detection limits.
4
Values are trace below mean detection limits (see Table 2).
5
Wheel pattern of sampling: C = center of wheel; A-F = clockwise around wheel circumference.
6
Background, soil across road from Gun 1.
