2019 Projects Initiated as Part of Ongoing Operation & Maintenance
The U.S. Army is conducting several projects this year as part of the long-term operation and maintenance of the environmental cleanup. The planned projects reflect the Army’s commitment to continually evaluate the cleanup in light of new environmental standards and technologies to ensure it remains fully protective of public health and the environment.
The projects include subsurface soil sampling and additional groundwater sampling, as well as designing a new consolidated groundwater treatment plant. The projects are being planned and conducted in cooperation with the EPA, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and Tri-County Health Department.
