Five-Year Review of shipyard cleanup

The Navy is required to complete Five-Year Reviews to evaluate if its cleanup solutions protect people and the environment. The draft Fifth Five Year Review Report (FYR) is currently available for public review and comment. The report reviews how effective the Navy's cleanup activities have been at each parcel and evaluates potential effects of sea level rise on the cleanup. Learn more about the process for public involvement in the five-year review here.
