Pueblo Chemical DepotThe Pueblo Chemical Depot is a chemical weapons storage site located in Pueblo County, Colorado, United States. The Depot houses 2,611 tons (2,369 metric tons) of mustard agent in approximately 780,000 munitions, equivalent to about seven percent of the original chemical material stockpile of the United States.[News-Journal 2006][citation needed] As of 2006, a planned disposal facility, the Pueblo Chemical Agent Disposal Pilot Plant (PCAPP) is in the construction phase; destruction of the chemical munitions is scheduled to start in 2011 by Bechtel Pueblo.
