The U.S. Army is entering the final stages of its cleanup at the former Volunteer Army Ammunition Plant site, and the public is invited to weigh in on proposed modifications to the remediation plan.
Of 37 solid waste management units and areas of concern identified at the site, 21 have been determined to require no further action, according to a fact sheet prefacing the proposed changes to the remediation plan.
The 16 others require land-use controls. Four also require long-term monitoring, three require institutional controls and two require monitored natural attention.
A public meeting about the modifications is set for today at 6 p.m. in the downtown Holiday Inn Suites on Chestnut Street.
