Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant

Louisiana, United States

The Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant, formerly known as the Louisiana Ordnance Plant or as The Shell Plant, is an inactive 14,974-acre (60.60 km2) plant to load, assemble and pack ammunitions items. During production from 1942 to 1994, the Army disposed of untreated explosives-laden wastewater in on-site lagoons, contaminating soil, sediments and groundwater with hazardous chemicals. It is a State of Louisiana government-owned, Louisiana Military Department operated facility located off U.S. Highway 80 in Webster Parish near Doyline between Minden and Bossier City, Louisiana. The former LAAP was turned over to the State of Louisiana from the federal government in 2005 and is now known as Camp Minden Training Site, a training center for the Louisiana Army National Guard. LAAP and Camp Minden have become interchangeable terms, with most references to Camp Minden.
