The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in cooperation with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), will hold a virtual meeting on the Proposed Plan for the Circle Court Superfund site (Site). As we navigate our way through this unique time, the health and safety of our staff, contractors, and the communities we serve is our top priority. As a result, EPA and its Superfund Site teams are conducting virtual meetings in lieu of in-person public meeting events to reflect current COVID-19 guidance from federal, state, tribal, and local officials discouraging gatherings of more than ten people at a time.
At the virtual public meeting, EPA staff will provide information and answer questions on the Proposed Plan and EPA’s preferred alternative that will be used to clean up the Site. The virtual meeting will be held online and/or over the phone via Microsoft Teams Video and Call Conferencing on:
Tuesday, September 28, 2021
6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
