The Ft. McPhearson Restoration Advisory Board:

The Ft. McPherson Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) has an opening on its board.  The RAB functions to enable the local community and representatives of government agencies to meet and exchange information about Fort McPherson 's environmental restoration program, prior to base closure. It provides an opportunity for the community to review progress and participate in discussions with the decision-makers.

• Providing advice on environmental restoration issues to representatives from Fort McPherson and other regulatory agencies; 
• Holding regular meetings, publicly announced and open to the public, at convenient times and locations;  
• Reviewing, evaluating and commenting on environmental restoration documents;  
• Understanding project requirements;   
• Communicating with residents, business owners, and other stakeholders within the base's proximity.

The RAB include members of the local community, Army personnel, state representatives, and employees from both the Georgia Environmental Protection Division and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. RABs are jointly co-chaired by an Army representative and a community representative.

The RAB meets on a regular basis and meetings are open to the public. Public participation on the RAB is strictly voluntary. The Army does not provide any form of financial compensation to community members who elect to participate.
