Editorial: We got Space Command, Camp Amache and the Arkansas Valley Conduit. Now clean up the Pueblo Chemical Depot.

Colorado’s congressional delegation must hone in on holding the Army accountable

A pronghorn antelope walks across a road near old munition storage bunkers, “Igloos” in the Puebloplex at the U.S. Army Pueblo Chemical Depot October 18, 2023. Nearly one thousand igloos at the depot were used to store small arms ammunition, similar bunkers (not pictured here) at the depot were used to store mustard-filled munitions, which have since been destroyed. The igloos (not ones used to store mustard-filled munitions) are now being rented for storage purposes to the public. (Photo by Andy Cross/The Denver Post)
