Important Opportunities for Public Comment on Badger's Future

PUBLIC HEARING:
Date: Tuesday, November 14, 2000
Time: 6:30 pm
Place: West Square Bldg. 505 Broadway, Baraboo

Purpose: The Environmental Impact Statement process provides for public 
input.  The "Scoping Meeting" is an opportunity for the public to tell 
the Government about their ideas for future reuse of Badger Army 
Ammunition Plant. Input can be via attendance at the meeting and 
publicly discussing your ideas and opinions, or by written submission 
advising the same, or both.

Time constraints at the November 14 hearing: In order to ensure that 
everyone who wishes to speak has an opportunity to do so, time 
constraints will be determined by the number of people who wish to be 
heard.  A stenographer will provide a record of the meeting.  Lengthy 
submissions should be in writing with a synopsis presented verbally. 

WRITTEN COMMENT:
Submission of written materials may be submitted at the meeting, or at 
any time prior to March 30, 2001 by mail to:
William A. Costa
Chief, Boston Operations Branch
General Services Administration
Property Disposal Division 1PR
10 Causeway St.  Rm 925
Boston, MA  02222

GSA has advised CSWAB that it is very important that everyone with an 
opinion or idea present that information in either written or verbal 
form as the agency is looking for an accurate assessment of what the 
public's expectations and wishes are for Badger.  All comments will be 
addressed in the final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).  After the 
November 14   meeting, GSA and its contractors will be gathering 
information from local, state and other sources, researching existing 
data, and developing possible scenarios.  A final report will not be 
issued until sometime after March 30, 2001 and will include and address 
all public comment and Reuse Committee recommendations.
