Public Comment Period Ends February 16

Preferred Cleanup Alternative
The recommended cleanup alternative is to excavate impacted soil and transport offsite to a permitted disposal facility, specifically designed for the safe disposal of radiological materials. In addition, the Corps recommends monitoring the natural physical and chemical processes in groundwater, after the soil has been removed, as they are expected to reduce remaining contaminant concentrations.
