The Stump Neck Annex on the Stump Neck peninsula lies south of the Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division(IHDIV/NSWC), and is occupied by tenant organizations. The mission of the Naval Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division at Stump Neck is to develop procedures for rendering safe weapons, missiles, and munitions. The Naval School, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, provides training in methods and procedures for recovery, evaluation, rendering safe, and disposal, of explosive ordnance (surface, underwater, conventional and nuclear types). The Stump Neck Annex is bordered on the north and east by Mattawoman Creek. Chicamuxen Creek and a sparsely populated area of Charles County lay to the south and west.
