Fifth Five-Year Review of Shipyard Cleanup (2024)

 

The Navy is required to complete a Five-Year Review (FYR) to evaluate if its cleanup solutions are protective of human health and the environment.  The FYR Report reviews how effective the Navy's selected remedies have been at each parcel and identifies potential sea level rise effects on the cleanup. The public comment period on the draft Fifth Five Year Review (FYR) Report closed on June 18, 2024, and the Navy is planning to issue the final version of the report in late July 2024.
