Environmental Cleanup Survey

Dear Interested Community Member:

We regularly update the Fort Ord Community Relations Plan which describes how community members can participate in decisions about the environmental cleanup of the former Fort Ord.  As part of the update, we incorporate recent input from community members through the Environmental Cleanup Survey and community interviews.  We are very interested in learning how you would like to participate in the environmental cleanup at Fort Ord.  Additionally, the information we collect from the Survey and community interviews will be used to help us determine the level of community interest in this site and to design a public participation program to meet the community's information needs.

The Environmental Cleanup Survey can help the Army to identify your interest in the cleanup.  By completing and returning the Survey, you can help yourself, your community, and the Army to develop better communication and understanding.  There are three ways you can complete the survey:

• Complete the online survey.
• Download, print, and mail the PDF version of the survey (requires a PDF reader, such as Adobe Acrobat).
• Print and mail the HTML version of the survey.

In addition to the survey, we invite you to participate in an interview with a representative of the Army, United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), or the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) about your interests and concerns surrounding the cleanup.  If you would like to discuss your interests and concerns with a representative, please contact our office and schedule an interview for a time and a location convenient for you.

We hope you will take the time to participate in this important effort by completing the survey or scheduling an interview.  Please contact Melissa Broadston at (831) 393-1284, or e-mail at: melissa.broadston@us.army.mil for more information.
