Scott AFB - Environmental Program Survey
1. As part of the Community Relations process for Scott Air Force Base’s Environmental Restoration Program, we want to assess the community’s interest in forming a Restoration Advisory Board (RAB). RABs are a forum for communities to voluntarily participate in the environmental restoration decision-making process and are a supplement to Public Meetings. They allow for two-way communication about past environmental restoration problems and decisions regarding future environmental clean-up. RABs meet regularly and they require active participation. They are not consensus-seeking organizations. Would you be interested in participating in this type of forum?
