DENVER – The federal and state of Colorado natural resource trustees (Trustees) settled a Natural Resources Damage Assessment and Restoration (NRDAR) case for monetary damages with Suncor in February, 2014. The Trustees intend to allocate this money towards projects proposed in the draft Restoration Plan (RP).
The purpose of the restoration outlined and proposed in this draft RP, is to compensate the public through restoration actions that would help return injured natural resources to baseline conditions and/or compensate for interim losses due to releases of oil from the Suncor Energy refinery in Commerce City, Colorado.
The Trustees would like to know what you think about the draft RP. It is available for public review and comment for 30 days beginning October 3, 2019. All comments received by November 1, 2019 will be considered.
An electronic copy of the draft Restoration Plan can be obtained by contacting the Colorado Ecological Services Field Office at 719-655-6121.
Comments on the RP may be sent via email to Laura Archuleta (laura_archuleta@fws.gov) or fax to 719-655-2502.
