The Program Executive Office, Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives (PEO ACWA) is responsible for the safe destruction of chemical weapons stockpiles at the U.S. Army's Pueblo Chemical Depot in Colorado and Blue Grass Army Depot in Kentucky. PEO ACWA was originally established by the United States to test and demonstrate alternative technologies to baseline incineration for the destruction of chemical weapons. Today, the program’s mission is to oversee the design, construction, systemization, testing, operation and closure of two chemical weapons destruction pilot plants – the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant in Colorado, and the Blue Grass Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant in Kentucky.
