Welcome
to the Fort Monroe Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) website. The purpose
of the RAB is to promote community awareness and obtain constructive community
review and comment on environmental restoration actions that will accelerate
the overall cleanup and subsequent community reuse of Fort Monroe.
RAB membership
includes citizen volunteers from the local Hampton Roads community, representatives
from the U.S. Army, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VDEQ), National Park Service (NPS),
City of Hampton, and the Fort Monroe Authority (FMA).
RAB meetings
are held semi-annually in May and November. Special meetings may be held at the discretion
of the RAB Co-Chairs. Meeting notices including the location and time will be placed in the The Daily Press, as well as on this
website.
All meetings are open to the public.
The next RAB meeting is tentatively scheduled for
Thursday, November 3, 2022.
The 2nd five-year review has been initiated by the U.S. Army
to ensure the land use controls to minimize direct human
contact with potential munitions and explosives of concern in
subsurface soil and sediment at Fort Monroe remain
protective of human health and the environment.
The review is anticipated to be completed by June 2022.
