The Dewey Loeffel Community Advisory Group is a group of concerned
citizens, municipal officials and other interested parties who come
together to discuss and provide important input to the Environmental
Protection Agency and other regulatory agencies regarding the Dewey
Loeffel Landfill investigations and remediation. Meetings are open to
the public.
About Community Advisory Groups:
The
United States Environmental Protection Agency describes a Community Advisory Group
(CAG) as a group which "is made up of representatives of diverse
community interests. Its purpose is to provide a public forum for
community members to present and discuss their needs and concerns
related to the Superfund decision-making process. A CAG can assist EPA
in making better decisions on how to clean up a site. It offers EPA a
unique opportunity to hear-and seriously consider-community preferences
for site cleanup and remediation. However, the existence of a CAG does
not eliminate the need for the Agency to keep the community informed
about plans and decisions throughout the Superfund process."
