PLEASE TAKE 1 MINUTE TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. COPY AND PASTE LETTER BELOW TO THE EPA.LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD EXPLANATION The mission of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is to guard the health and safety of US residents. We question if the EPA in Denver is fulfilling that mission. In that regard, we have requested that the EPA, Region 8, in Denver, hold FORMAL ... PUBLIC HEARINGS...., with recorded, oral testimony, from Denver residents, about their concerns, questions and suggestions about Denver's plan to do a removal action (NOT clean up) by digging in the I70-/Vasquez Superfund site(http://tinyurl.com/h8nr2vf) to install an obsolete drainage system. (See the future: https://youtu.be/gzt69QnKMFs) We further requested that EPA to take back responsibility from Denver, for developing and executing a credible Community Involvement Plan as mandated by Congress in the CERCLA laws. https://semspub.epa.gov/work/HQ/100000070.pdf Thanks for your help.
