What are the costs for proper cleanup? Is there (an) economic interest in under-reporting existing conditions?
Between Fiscal Year (FY) 1993 and FY 2007 the Army has spent approximately $14,336,000.00 on restoration activities at Fort Monmouth. Programmed funding for FY2008 is set at $545,000.00. Fort Monmouth’s ‘Cost to Complete’ estimate for restoration activities from FY 2009 through FY 2011 is programmed at $861,430.00. The Cost to Complete estimate may be subject to change based upon the findings of the Site Investigation which is currently underway. The Army is committed to identifying all potential environmental liabilities prior to property transfer. Fort Monmouth officials have no economic interest in under reporting existing conditions.
