Pollution & Cleanup
These are EPA National Priorities List (NPL) Superfund sites in Colorado with documented PFAS contamination. It's a statewide list, not an address check — the presence of a site somewhere in the state doesn't mean any specific home is affected. To know whether a site is near a particular property, check that address directly.
From EPA's National Priorities List, filtered to sites with confirmed PFAS contamination. EPA's broader Superfund/SEMS inventory is larger and includes non-PFAS and assessment-stage sites.
| Site | Type / status |
|---|---|
| Air Force Plant Pjks | Federal · NPL: Final |
| Rocky Flats Plant (Usdoe) | Federal · NPL: Final |
| Rocky Mountain Arsenal (Usarmy) | Federal · NPL: Final |

VetMyAddress maps nearby EPA Superfund/NPL sites and grades the address A–F alongside its water, PFAS, flood, and air data.
A site appearing on this page means EPA has confirmed PFAS contamination at a National Priorities List Superfund site somewhere in Colorado. It is a statewide screening list. It does not tell you the distance from any specific home, the exposure pathway, or whether the local drinking-water system is affected.
For a specific property, the things that actually matter are:
That address-level synthesis — nearest-site distance plus the home's full environmental profile in one A–F grade — is what the VetMyAddress report is for.
Our curated EPA dataset lists 3 PFAS-confirmed Superfund (NPL) sites in Colorado, including Air Force Plant Pjks, Rocky Flats Plant (Usdoe), Rocky Mountain Arsenal (Usarmy). EPA's full Superfund inventory (including non-PFAS and assessment-stage sites) is larger — a specific-address report checks all SEMS sites near the property.
Proximity is a starting point, not a verdict. Real-world impact depends on distance, the type of contamination, the exposure pathway (groundwater, soil, vapor), the home's water source, and the cleanup stage. A site two miles away marked 'construction complete' is very different from an active site next door.
Use VetMyAddress to see EPA Superfund/NPL sites near any Colorado address, bundled with the home's drinking water, PFAS, flood zone, and air-quality data in a single plain-English A–F grade. EPA's own ECHO database (echo.epa.gov) is the free, official source if you prefer to dig through the raw records.
It means PFAS ('forever chemicals') have been documented in the contamination at that National Priorities List site. PFAS is persistent and can migrate through groundwater, so a confirmed PFAS site is worth pairing with the home's drinking-water and PFAS data to understand the exposure pathway.
