Where can I go to learn more?

PitWatch.org is the online home of the Berkeley Pit Public Education Committee. This volunteer committee educates residents, students, and the public about the environmental management of the Berkeley Pit.  Information includes the geology, hydrology, current events, and ongoing academic research associated with the Berkeley Pit. This committee frequently shares their perspective on current projects, ongoing management, and findings and conclusions on this website and its social media. 

EPA supports a Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) to Citizens Technical Environmental Committee (CTEC). This group of volunteer citizens work with EPA, the State of Montana, responsible parties, and others to make the Superfund process and cleanup decisions in the Butte and Clark Fork Basin area of Montana understandable to everyone.

Atlantic Richfield’s Butte Cleanup Data Site is a website where the public can find information and data about the remediation of the Butte Priority Soils Superfund site. 

The City and County of Butte-Silver Bow maintains a Superfund Division Webpage that includes information and resources about the Superfund designation in Butte and the Residential Metals Abatement Program.
