EPA Region 7 to Host Oct. 16 Open House for Oronogo-Duenweg Mining Belt
Superfund Site
EPA officials will present the Community Involvement Plan and findings from
the Technical Assistance Needs Assessment
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7 – 11201 Renner Blvd., Lenexa,
KS 66219
Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and Nine Tribal Nations
LENEXA, KAN. (OCT. 8, 2024) – Representatives from the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Region 7 will host an open house session to provide
community members with the opportunity to learn more about EPA’s Community
Involvement Plan (CIP) and the findings from the Technical Assistance Needs
Assessment (TANA) for the Oronogo-Duenweg Mining Belt Superfund Site in Jasper
County, Missouri.
EPA Region 7 representatives will also provide attendees with an update about
EPA’s residential soil lead guidance, released in January 2024, that lowered
the screening level at residential properties from 400 parts per million (ppm)
to 200 ppm.
A Community Involvement Plan is a site-specific strategy to enable meaningful
community involvement throughout the Superfund cleanup process. CIPs are a
requirement at Superfund sites, as mandated by the National Oil and Hazardous
Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP).
A TANA is a site-specific process that identifies whether a community requires
additional support from EPA to understand technical information and to enable
meaningful community involvement in the Superfund decision-making process.
The community meeting will be held:
Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2024
Presentation: 6:15 to 8 p.m.
Open House: 8 to 9 p.m.
Carthage Memorial Hall
407 South Garrison
Carthage, MO 64836
Individuals unable to attend the community meeting are encouraged to visit
with representatives from EPA Region 7 at Joplin’s Third Tuesday on Oct. 17
at the EPA booth.
