Public Participation

Environmental activities began at Naval Air Station (NAS) Brunswick in 1982 with a study of waste disposal practices at NAS Brunswick. State and Federal regulatory agencies provide oversight and concurrence of all work conducted. The Navy will fulfill its responsibilities as required by law. The purpose of the RAB Meetings is to outline activities to inform the community about Navy’s clean-up efforts and to provide opportunities for the public to offer input to the decision-making process.

The NAS Brunswick Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) consists of representatives of the community who advise the Navy, as well as State and Federal regulators, on environmental cleanup issues and strategies for NAS Brunswick. You are invited to attend the RAB Meetings to learn more about the Navy’s clean-up efforts first-hand and to ask questions on or off the record. The RAB Meetings are held in the evenings from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, within the Town of Brunswick at various locations.The RAB Meeting location is published in the Times Record in advance of each NAS Brunswick RAB meeting.

Additional information can be found under the RAB Meetings tab on this website.

Please contact Mr. John Ripley, NAS Brunswick Public Affairs Director if you have questions, or would like more information.

NAS Brunswick's Community Relations Plan

The Community Relations Plan sets forth a site-specific program to establish two-way communication and an information exchange among the Department of Navy (DON), NAS Brunswick's military/civilian work force and residents, various Federal, State, and local community agencies, business people and local citizens. Effective communication and timely information exchange are essential for maintaining community understanding and support for NAS Brunswick's mission and for implementing a successful IR Program and Base closure.

The purpose of the Community Relations Plan is to outline activities to inform the community about IR Program cleanup actions and to provide opportunities for the public to offer input to the decision-making process. The Community Relations Plan identifies issues of community concern regarding NAS Brunswick and outlines community relations activities to be conducted during the IR Program cleanup process.

Attached is the most recent Community Relations Plan (CRP) that was developed for IR Program activities at NAS Brunswick. This plan is dated April 2008.
