Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) completed Superfund hazardous waste cleanup actions, focusing on the: (1) type and extent of actions taken at those sites; and (2) challenges EPA will face in managing and monitoring these sites. GAO found that: (1) significant amounts of hazardous wastes have been removed or controlled at 149 EPA Superfund hazardous waste sites; (2) EPA removal and remedial actions including landfill waste disposal, waste capping, and the use of contamination treatment technology have addressed long-term health risks and significant surface, soil, and groundwater contamination problems; (3) although most cleanup actions involved surface waste treatment, some sites did not require remedial action because EPA already addressed site risks; (4) other groundwater contamination problems required long-term treatment and monitoring; (5) EPA completed 125 separate removal actions at over half of the 149 sites and averted additional site and environmental contamination by removing waste from sites or constructing barriers to prevent access to waste; (6) despite these accomplishments, EPA needs to improve its reporting of cleanup work performed at sites on the National Priorities List; (7) EPA, states, and responsible parties can expect increased demands on cleanup resources because current and future Superfund sites will require complex cleanup efforts and long-term monitoring and maintenance; and (8) although states have increasingly challenged EPA interpretation of legislation requiring them to fund all costs for operating and maintaining completed or deleted sites, recent court rulings have upheld the EPA interpretation.

Book excerpt: Prior to the 1980s and the passage of environmental legislation -- esp. the Comprehensive Environ. Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) governing environmental cleanup -- DoD activities contaminated millions of acres of soil and water on and near DoD sites. The EPA places the most contaminated sites on its Nat. Priorities List (NPL) and requires that they be cleaned up in accordance with CERCLA. EPA has placed 140 DoD sites on the NPL. Disputes have recently arisen between EPA and DoD on agreements to clean up some of these sites. This report determines: (1) the extent of EPA's oversight during assessment and cleanup at DoD sites; and (2) why EPA has proposed fewer DoD sites for the NPL since the early 1990s. Illustrations.

This book was released on 2017-08-02 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Under the Superfund program, EPA may address the long-term cleanup of certain hazardous waste sites by placing them on the NPL and overseeing the cleanup. To be eligible for the NPL, a site must be sufficiently contaminated, among other things. EPA regions have discretion to choose among several other approaches to address sites eligible for the NPL. For example, under the Superfund program, EPA regions may enter into agreements with PRPs using the SA approach. EPA may also defer the oversight of cleanup at eligible sites to approaches outside of the Superfund program. GAO was asked to review EPA's implementation of the SA approach and how it compares with the NPL approach. This report examines (1) how EPA addresses the cleanup of sites it has identified as eligible for the NPL, (2) how the processes for implementing the SA and NPL approaches compare, and (3) how SA agreement sites compare with similar NPL sites in completing the cleanup process. GAO reviewed applicable laws, regulations, and guidance; analyzed program data as of December 2012; interviewed EPA officials; and compared SA agreement sites with 74 NPL sites selected based on their similarity to SA agreement sites.
