Public Participation Plan
After conducting research that included interviews with members of the Oakley community, DuPont developed a Public Participation Plan that has been in effect since March 2001. The plan was later updated (in June 2003) based on more recent guidance from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC, or the Department). The plan gives a brief background for the reader to understand the local community and history of the Oakley site, as well as identifying the ways in which DuPont shares information with the Oakley community.
