The U.S. Navy is seeking community input on the formation of a Restoration Advisory Board for Naval Base Kitsap. Please provide your input
HERE by June 14, 2024.
The Navy is assessing community interest in the formation of a Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) for Naval Base Kitsap (NBK) (includes NBK-Bangor, NBK-Bremerton, Jackson Park Housing Complex, NBK-Keyport, NBK-Manchester, and Naval Hospital Bremerton). A RAB is a formal community advisory group that meets regularly with military and regulatory agency representatives to discuss the Environmental Restoration Program for Naval Base Kitsap. The Environmental Restoration Program focuses on environmental impacts that occurred in the past due to spills, leaks, or historical practices. The Navy is conducting investigations and initiating cleanup actions to address past releases to the environment, such as materials that contained per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), ordnance compounds, and petroleum products.
To complete the questionnaire, go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RLSBG5H and provide input by June 14, 2024, to help us assess community interest in forming a RAB. Questionnaire responses will be summarized but kept confidential. Your participation in this questionnaire is voluntary and a greatly appreciated community service. If you are unable to complete the questionnaire online, please leave a message at 1-844-662-5722 to request assistance.
