The meeting will include a presentation specific to the ongoing environmental cleanup activities for the Environmental Restoration sites at former NWIRP Bedford consisting of Site 3 (Chlorinated Solvent Groundwater Plume), and Site 4 (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylenes Groundwater Plume).  The environmental cleanups at former NWIRP Bedford are being conducted under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), also known as “Superfund”.  The meeting will include a summary of the current status of the ongoing remedial actions implemented at the environmental restoration sites.  Representatives from the U.S. Navy, USEPA, and MassDEP will be available to answer questions during the meeting.

Reports on environmental actions are made available to the public through the Navy’s Administrative Record (AR) File for former NWIRP Bedford.  The AR File contains data and documentation supporting past site decisions regarding the Navy’s environmental restoration cleanup of former NWIRP Bedford.  The AR File for former NWIRP Bedford is available electronically at: https://administrative-records.navfac.navy.mil/?ML6J_U3JG4XM3TL

For those with no internet and/or computer access, a copy of the AR File was placed in a binder (called the AR File CD Binder) that is updated yearly and is available at the Bedford Public Library (located at 7 Mudge Way, Bedford, MA 01730).
