Our Community Goals:

1. An immediate, voluntary 1 mile buy-out.
2. A 3 mile property assurance plan.
3. A safe and permanent solution to the radioactive contamination and the underground fire at this site. We believe in order for us to achieve a safe & permanent solution we need the transfer of jurisdiction from EPA over to the Army Corps of Engineers FUSRAP clean up program.

Upcoming events:

• Monthly CommUnity Meeting, every third Thursday 6:30pm at John Calvin Presbyterian Church located at the intersection of Natural Bridge and St. Charles Rock Road
