The Colorado Chemical Demilitarization Citizens’ Advisory Commission will not hold an in-person public meeting as scheduled for April 29 at the McHarg Park Community Center in Avondale, Colorado.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there will be a virtual public meeting instead, the commission said in a statement to stakeholders.

The 2 p.m. online public meeting will use the Google Hangouts Meet platform. Questions will be taken via an open online chat window; a period at the end of the meeting will be reserved for taking call-in questions.

Permitting Working Group and Biotreatment Utilization Group committee meetings, which normally precede CAC meetings at the Pueblo County District Attorney’s office, will be held in conjunction with this online CAC meeting.

Colorado CAC meetings take place most months at the Olde Towne Carriage House in Pueblo. Still, each year one meeting is held at community centers in Avondale and Boone, the communities situated closest to the U.S. Army Pueblo Chemical Depot and PCAPP facilities.

Meanwhile, if you have any questions or concerns about the project or wish to participate in the online meeting, please contact the Pueblo Chemical Stockpile Outreach Office staff at PuebloOutreach@iem.com.
