Tooele Army Depot Confirms Responsibility for Loud Booms
We have confirmed with Tooele Army Depot that they are performing
detonations today and believe they are the source of the loud booms heard
in Sandy and along the Wasatch Front. The detonations are part of Tooele
Army Depot’s routine operations to dispose of expired military munitions.
The army depot typically conducts detonations from September through the
end of October each year. Depending on the weather, the sound and
vibrations can travel quite far.
