Submit a Public Comment for Kings Cove Park Cleanup

Many years ago, FRRACS requested a review of contamination at Kings Cove Park (the park located next to the compressor station), through a process at MA DEP called PIP — Public Involvement Program. The park has been polluted with coal ash, arsenic, oil, and other pollutants due to former industry at the site. We are concerned about these pollutants leaking into the nearby bay, soil, and impacting the public who recreate at the park.

We received notice that there will be a site visit at Kings Cove Park on Friday, June 13 at 9:00. This site visit will be led by the office of MEPA (MA Environmental Policy Act) and the consultants overseeing the project, VHB.

In addition to the site visit, MEPA is accepting public comment on this matter. We encourage you to submit comments. We have provided a guide on how to submit comments, as well as sample text. You can access that guide here: Word | PDF
