Contingency Planning for Off-site Shipment of Hydrolysate at Pueblo Chemical Depot

Overview

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment approved a Record of Environmental Consideration (REC) regarding contingency planning for off-site shipment of hydrolysate at the U.S. Army Pueblo Chemical Depot (PCD). The REC was open for public comment and approved in March 2017.

The action approves the construction and operation of a loading dock/shipment terminal for the shipment of mustard agent hydrolysate from the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (PCAPP), at PCD, to an off-site Treatment Storage and Disposal Facility for final treatment and disposal. This action will last until PCAPP completes operations.
