of the content and format of an NDAI ESS and Institutional Controls ESS are presented in
Appendices F and G, respectively.
(2) Both the NDAI ESS and Institutional Controls ESS must receive concurrence from the
US Army Technical Center for Explosives Safety (USATCES) and the Department of Defense
Explosives Safety Board (DDESB). Once the ESS has been approved, and all other comments
on the Draft EE/CA have been incorporated, the Final EE/CA Report may be prepared.
9-9. EE/CA Public Participation and Approval Process.
a. Once the EE/CA Report has been prepared and reviewed by the OE Design Center, the
OE MCX, the district, and other stakeholders, the EE/CA becomes part of the Administrative
Record for the site. The EE/CA is made available for public review and comment. A formal 30-
day (minimum) public comment period is required, during which time public meetings may be
held to discuss the results of the field investigation and the alternative selection process.
b. Upon completion of the public comment period, a responsiveness summary is prepared
that discusses any significant public comments received and the actions taken to address those
comments. The responsiveness summary becomes part of the Administrative Record.
c. Once the comments received during the public comment period have been incorporated
into the EE/CA, the final EE/CA, along with the responsiveness summary, becomes part of the
Administrative Record for the site.
d. If OE remains or is suspected to remain after completion of a response action, the
property owner(s) will be apprised through the Administrative Record or other written
agreements, and all documentation will be annotated accordingly.
