This investigation is concluding, and EPA is preparing to present its findings to community mem- bers in the Fall. This brochure explains how those findings will be shared and how you may participate in the public comment process. What is a Proposed Cleanup Plan? After EPA has completed all of its investigations at a site and all of the cleanup options are evaluated, EPA prepares a Proposed Plan that recom- mends the option it considers best for the site. You will be able to review and comment on the Plan during a public comment period that will be an- nounced in the Fall. The proposed cleanup plan: => Summarizes all viable cleanup alternatives evaluated for the site. => Highlights EPA'S preferred cleanup options. => Discusses site history, investigation results, and reasonably anticipated future uses of the site, and explains community involvement opportuni- ties. Process at a Glance STEP 1: EPA announces the proposed cleanup plan to the public and opens a 30-day public comment period: EPA will place an ad in the local newspaper announcing the availa- bility of the proposed cleanup plan, the duration of the public comment period, and the public meeting. i=j? EPA will mail a fact sheet to the community summarizing the pro- posed cleanup plan for the BoRit site and announcing the dates of the public comment period and public meeting. => The proposed cleanup plan will be made available for public review online, at EPA's regional office, and at the information repository for the community.
