Restoration Advisory Board — The Community’s Voice
The US Army is conducting environmental studies and clean-up action at Army installations nationwide under the Installation Restoration Program. The IAAAP is currently conducting an installation-wide remedial investigation to collect new data. IAAAP has established a Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) to keep the public informed and involved in its clean-up activities as well as to provide opportunities for public involvement in its environmental restoration program.
The RAB will enable the local community and representatives of Government Agencies to meet and exchange information about IAAAP’s environmental clean-up program. It will also provide an opportunity to review progress and participate in dialogue with the decision makers.
RAB members are provided a wide range of technical data regarding clean-up actions as well as independent technical assistance in interpreting the data, if necessary. RAB members are encouraged to provide input when choosing between different clean-up technologies and they also make recommendations regarding annual project and funding priorities.
Current RAB community members are from all walks of life from teachers to retirees from business owners to conservationists. The common desire among all these individuals is to provide a cleaner environment for us all. The RAB meetings are currently held each quarter at the West Burlington City Hall. If you are interested in volunteering as a RAB member, please complete the RAB Application.
