So, anyways, my point in all this was, that if the land owner is ok with an expedition into the silo for purely exploration and photographic reasons, then we should be fine.Apart from the toxic substances.Featured Image: (public domain), 25. A non-time critical removal of the impacted soils is planned by the U.S. Based on the characterization data developed during the site inspection, only polychlorinated biphenols (PCBs) in the lagoon wastes (soils) is an issue. The Site Inspection (SI) field work was completed in the Fall of 2009. This is from the CDPHE website: " Complex 2B (D045): Titan Complex 2B is located near Deer Trail, Colorado. Now, the CDPHE says that while all of these Titan 1 silo sites are contaminated and have contaminated their immediate surroundings, the B2 site (in Deer Trail) is the lesser of all the evils. For instance, there is a data storage company that purchased a missile silo of some configuration from the DOD north of Denver, and has retrofitted it to hold hundreds of servers for digital data storage. The majority of these sites are either still owned by the DOD, or are up for sale with a price tag that has way too many zeros at the end of it. ![]() It seams that instead of retrofitting old sites, they just left them behind and started over (with your tax money). There are a bunch of other abandoned missile silos all over the mid-west, left behind from other projects as our intercontinental ballistic missile programs progressed in sophistication over the years. Now, it should be said that this only goes for the old Titan 1 silos. These studies are undertaken by the Department of Defense (DOD) at their leisure. They're privately owned, but the environmental impacts are still studied. The sites either reverted back to the original land owners, or were sold at surplus auctions after the total shutdown of the Titan project in 1968-69. I did some research and it turns out that none of the Titan 1 Missile silos are on federal land any longer, at least in Colorado, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). At least it's not an abandoned chemical/biological warfare agent factory like they have in Russia where there's bubonic plague and anthrax just lying around on the floor.at ground level. But if they can't live in these abandoned bases, there's got to be something really foul down there.īut hey, look on the bright side. Rats can live almost anywhere, in some of the nastiest filth know to man. Leads me to believe that there are very toxic substances to be found below deck, on account of the fact that some of these sites (the one in Deer Trail in particular) are not sealed any longer. In my research of these sites over the past couple weeks, I've found that this seems to be a reoccurring theme in all the various reports from different explorers in all the sites. This may mean that it's just pretty well sealed, or it may mean something worse, that something is preventing things from living down there." A quote from that page you linked: "Interestingly enough, there are NO signs of life anywhere in the whole complex not even a rat or a spider.
