Amphenol plan meeting tonight
After years of slow progress, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is asking for input on its final site remediation plan for the Amphenol/Franklin Power Products site.
The agency will hold a public meeting on the plan at 6 p.m. tonight at Franklin City Hall. EPA officials will hold a question-and-answer session for the first hour of the meeting, with the formal public hearing to follow at 7 p.m.
The statement of basis plan was released in mid-May but could change based on public comments submitted during the 45-day public comment period, which ends July 1. The plan is outlined in a 75-page document online at the EPA’s Amphenol page and in a YouTube video posted on the EPA Regions channel.
