Camp New Fork Rifle Range
50 S Scout Camp Road, Cora, WY, 82925
RE: Camp New Fork Rifle Range VRP #58.253 Cleanup Site
DEAR PROPERTY OWNER:
Crossroads of the West Council was recently accepted for participation in Wyoming’s Voluntary Remediation Program (VRP), to clean up Camp 50 S Scout Camp Road, Cora, Sublette County, WY. The VRP was established in 2000 by the Wyoming Legislature in order to safely and efficiently reach decisions about cleanup of contaminated sites or potentially contaminated sites. The Camp New Fork Rifle Range was accepted into the program because it met conditions for eligibility as outlined in Wyoming law (Environmental Quality Act).
You are receiving this letter because the Environmental Quality Act requires that, when investigation or cleanup begins, Volunteers must give notice to people with property next to the VRP Site. This notice is required even when property next to the VRP Site has not been contaminated. In addition, contamination sometimes moves onto properties next to or close to VRP Sites. In these instances, the Environmental Quality Act also requires that the Volunteer provide notice to people whose property may have been affected by the VRP Site.
Crossroads of the West Council is participating in a streamlined administrative process under the VRP. This process is called the Independent Cleanup Process or ICP and is available only for sites where contamination is limited to soil. The primary contaminants at Camp New Fork Rifle Range is lead in soil. Under the ICP, the Volunteer will excavate all contaminated soil to levels that are appropriate for unrestricted site uses. This means the area or areas cleaned up will be safe for any potential use. When cleanup is finished and it has been confirmed that cleanup levels are met, the Volunteer may request that the DEQ issue a certificate of completion or other liability assurance for the property.
This is the only Notice that you will receive about this cleanup action. The DEQ and Crossroads of the West Council welcome your comments. If you would like to comment on the cleanup, you must do so in writing by [DATE (insert date 30 days from last newspaper notice)]. If you do not want to comment on the cleanup, no response to this letter is needed. Send written comments to: Suzanne Engels, Administrator, Solid and Hazardous Waste Division, DEQ, 200 West 17th Street, 2nd Floor, Cheyenne, Wyoming, 82002 or submit using the WDEQ comment portal provided at: https://shw.wyomingdeq.commentinput.com/.
In addition, if twenty-five (25) people or an organization representing at least twenty-five (25) people request it, a public participation hearing on the proposed remedy will be held before the Director of DEQ. If a hearing is scheduled, separate notice will be given. If you would like to request a public participation hearing, send your request to Suzanne Engels, Administrator, Solid and Hazardous Waste Division, DEQ, at the address listed above. You may request a public participation hearing as part of your written comments on the proposed remedy agreement.
