EPA extends Amphenol site clean-up plan comment period

The public comment period for the Amphenol/Franklin Power Products Statement of Basis plan has been extended to July 31. The deadline was originally July 1, but Environmental Protection Agency officials announced the deadline was extended last week.

The plan outlines the EPA’s proposed final remedy to clean up the known contamination area surrounding the site. The draft 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.

The public has several different options to comment on the plan:

  • By website, directly at https://bit.ly/3kOUikw

  • By confidential voicemail at 312-919-4621
  • By mail to Kirstin Safakas at U.S. EPA Region 5 External Communications Office 77 W. Jackson Blvd., EC-19J Chicago, IL 60604-3590
