4.0 UXO SEARCH METHODOLOGY

4.1. SEARCH PROCEDURES
The following UXO search and remediation treatment was applied to the Site:

e Search methodology was the conduct of a disciplined 100% analogue search at one (1)
metre lane intervals to a depth of one (1) metre. Principal search instrument was the
Foerster 4.032 Magnetometer. In the magnetically hostile areas (for example:
Neighbouring properties containing metal objects, mesh fence line and slate wall) where
the performance of the Foerster 4.032 Magnetometer was degraded, the Minelab F3 Metal
Detector was used to search these areas. This is a state of the art Australian designed
electromagnetic induction coil detector, built to military specifications. Technical
specifications for the Foerster 4.032 Magnetometer and the Minelab F3 Metal Detector are

presented at enclosure 1.

e Note: In any magnetically hostile areas, prior to carrying out a shallow search, an attempt
was made to carry out as effective a deep search as was possible. The 4032 has several
modes and is designed to operate in different conditions. Using “Mode 6” a search can be
carried out adjacent to metal objects and in areas with electrical interference. A Mode 6
Deep Search was carried out in all areas on this site that were magnetically hostile prior to

carrying out a shallow search.

« Principal target to be located was UXO equivalent to a 37mm projectile to its potential
kinetic depth, (approx 0.3 meters). This is the smallest item of explosive ordnance (EO)
known to be used in this area.
