Hazmat testing ground

The hazmat testing ground is a location in Big MT in 2281.

Background
The hazmat testing ground was created to develop suits that could protect against environmental hazards like chemical spills or cleaning up dump sites. When the Cloud developed in the Sierra Madre (as part of another Big MT experiment), many hazmat suits were developed and tested here to combat the corrosive gas, but to no avail.

Layout
This location is directly east of The Think Tank. It consists of the ruins of a mostly destroyed building; only the parts of the walls are still intact. Desks line the side with a Sunset Sarsaparilla vending machine on the back wall. In the now-exposed basement area are irradiated puddles along with the hazmat suit suspended in stasis.

Notable loot

 * The hazmat suit and hazmat darklight cowl can be located in a pod on the basement floor. This stasis field must be unlocked with either the security code from the Z-43 Innovative Toxins plant or by using the upgraded sonic emitter to disable the force field.

Appearances
The hazmat testing ground appears only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.
