Alaska Restoration Advisory Boards
Restoration Advisory Boards (RAB's) are a primary mechanism for actively working with the community during environmental restoration at many installations. The Department of Defense (DOD) gives each community the option of forming one of these advisory boards to share community views with the installation decision-makers. A RAB has representatives of the DOD installation or overseeing federal agency, DEC, local governments, tribal governments, and the affected local community. RAB members also report information back to the community on DOD's environmental restoration activities. In Alaska many, but not all, of DOD contaminated sites have RAB's to help provide community involvement. Some of the RAB's work with more than one site, or even take a regional focus, such as the Barrow RAB. Department of Defense's RAB Handbook: download (PDF 461K )
