Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield is performing a community interest survey to determine if a Restoration Advisory Board for the 3rd Infantry Division, would be supported by the local communities.

A Restoration Advisory Board is an advisory board made up of interested and concerned community members who reflect the diverse interests of the local community as well as representatives of local, state, and federal agencies. The RAB would be designed to serve as a focal point for the exchange of information between the installations and the community regarding those restoration activities presently underway as well as those planned for future environmental studies and remediation efforts.

If sufficient interest is indicated by the local communities, Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield would petition the local communities for RAB members, who would be required to serve a one-year, voluntary term. These members would be required to attend regular meetings and training on the Restoration Program as wells as review, evaluate, and comment on plans relating to the ongoing environmental studies/restoration activities at Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield.

If you are interested in completing a community interest survey, have questions about RABs that you would like answered prior to completing the survey, or need more information concerning environmental investigations and cleanup activities on Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield, please contact Tavy Wade, Restoration Program Manager at tavy.j.wade.civ@army.mil or Zachary Tice, RCRA/Remediation Section Supervisor at zachary.a.tice.civ@army.mil via e-mail, or by mail at Environmental Prevention and Compliance Branch / DPW, 1550 Veterans Parkway, Building 1137, Fort Stewart, GA 31314-4927.
