Coalition announces meetings
The Coalition For A Clean CFAC will be hosting public meetings on Aug. 20 and 21. These meetings invite the public’s input regarding the proposed Columbia Falls Aluminum Plant Superfund cleanup plan. The August presentation and discussion sessions will focus on the barriers and opportunities to removing some or all of the waste from the CFAC Superfund site. Karmen King, as an independent expert and consultant on Superfund site cleanup projects around the country, will be part of the presentation.
She is a compliance and ecological risk expert with many years of experience in community cleanups of hazardous waste Superfund sites. Her presence and support for the community is through a unique EPA (Federal Environmental Protection Agency) program that supports independent analysis of superfund cleanup plans led by affected communities. King and some of the Coalition members leading efforts to do a deep dive into the remedial investigations will present some tentative findings from their research and take questions. Public participation and feedback are crucial for the EPA, who is the final decision-maker, to get the cleanup accomplished with the community’s best interest in mind.
