The Board of Directors has just learned that there is a proposed plan for remediation of toxic chemicals at the Naval Research Lab-Chesapeake Bay Detachment, just down the road from Chesapeake Station. The proposed plan is open for public comment. However, the public comment period closes Friday May 6.
We are passing this on to the CSHOA community in case residents have concerns they wish to voice. The Town of Chesapeake Beach is considering asking NRL to conduct a public information session.
The remediation plan documents can be found here:

Procedures for providing comments can be found in the plan documents above.
