Project #1

Travis Air Force Base is executing a comprehensive approach to Project #1. The public health and safety of Team Travis, their families, and our community partners is our top priority.

 

Lines of Effort

Team Travis is working closely with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, Environmental Protection Agency, SF Bay Regional Water Board, California Dept of Fish and Wildlife and all additional authorities and officials to ensure potential source of Project #1 remedied effectively and efficiently.

In response to Project #1, Team Travis employed a variety of mitigation equipment and supplies of the project on base to contain any potential containments. Our current mitigation protocol is reviewed and approved by the California Water Board, Coast Guard, EPA and additional environmental partners.

All new project observations are reported to the State Water Board via the National Response Center and California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. Additionally, Travis teammates perform daily visual observations to identify any future project appearances.
