EPA has initiated a three-year strategy, called the Integrated Cleanup Initiative, to identify and implement improvements to the Agency’s land cleanup programs. The Initiative will identify and implement opportunities to integrate and leverage the Agency’s land cleanup authorities to accelerate cleanups, address a greater number of contaminated sites, and put these sites back into productive use while protecting human health and the environment.
Item 2B indicates that the evaluation to determine if VI should be expressly addressed in the HRS has been made and that a notice will be issued in January to begin the public process of moving forward with this revision.
Item 3 also indicate that regional offices will be expected to perform more robust PRP searches and that metrics will be established to measure progress on this goal
Items 12A/B and 13 reaffirm the enforcement first policy and suggests this will be done earlier in the remedy process
