Successful Demonstrations Lead to End of Pilot Testing at Pueblo Plant

Staff at the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (PCAPP) have been performing Integrated Facilities Demonstrations to show proficiency at different tasks with the plant operating as designed. In the process, they’ve set records and achieved the most productive weeks yet for processing and destroying the chemical munitions stockpile stored since the 1950s at the U.S. Army’s Pueblo Chemical Depot. The data collected from such live demonstrations helps Colorado regulators set limits that protect the workforce, public health and the environment, and mark the end of Pilot Testing as the plant heads into full operations.

Surging sand dunes!

At Colorado’s Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, visitors this #June got a rare #summertime treat: #MedanoCreek is more of a wave pool than its usual trickle for the time of year. That’s because peak flow for the #creek that winds around the foot of the #dunes was delayed by later-than-usual cold #temperatures. While visitors to the #natural #landmark about a hundred miles from the #Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (#PCAPP) are used to #surfing down the dunes, many were also able to ride the #waves. . . Thanks for exploring around the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (#PCAPP) and the Blue Grass Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (#BGCAPP) . . #Water #GreatSandDunes #NationalPark #Sand #Summer #Vacation #ATP #NationalRecreationMonth
