What is Superfund?
Superfund was established in 1980 by an act of Congress authorizing funds for the cleanup of polluted sites
![Page 8: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Goals of Superfund Protect human health and the environment by cleaning up polluted sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive use
![Page 9: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
How Did This Problem Begin?
Little attention was given to hazardous waste until three sites made national headlines in the 1970s and early 1980s
![Page 10: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Why the Concern About Hazardous Waste?
Hazardous waste can affect your health Hazardous waste can pollute your environment
Surface Water Ground Water Soil Air
Hazardous waste is not always easy to smell, taste, or see
![Page 14: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Who is Responsible for Cleaning Up the Site?
Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) State Governments Federal Government
![Page 15: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) pay If PRPs cannot pay or cannot be found, then the "Superfund" pays
The "Superfund" is a trust fund of monies mainly from taxes on crude oil and commercially-used chemicals
Paying for the Cleanup
![Page 16: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How Sites Qualify for Superfund
EPA has a set of criteria to identify, evaluate, and rank polluted sites This process determines if a site is dangerous to communities or the environment
![Page 17: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Superfund Response
![Page 19: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Types of Response
There are two basic types of response that EPA uses to clean up polluted sites
Removal responses: emergency spills Remedial responses: up complex sites needing long-term cleanup actions
Used to clean up
Used to clean

EPA Response to Emergencies (Removal Actions)
![Page 21: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Short Term Cleanup Actions
Time-Critical Actions
Non-Time-Critical Actions
![Page 22: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Emergency Situations
Include hazardous waste spills that require immediate attention These are limited, short-term cleanup actions which may be due to:
Tanker spills Leaking drums Drinking water contamination
![Page 23: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Short-term/ Non-Term Critical Cleanups
Dependent on: the actual or potential exposure to humans and animals from hazardous substances the levels of hazardous substances pollutants that may migrate threat of fire or explosion
or

Long-term Cleanup Actions
![Page 25: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Non-Emergency Situations
"Remedial Response" actions address releases that do not pose immediate threats to public health or the environment These are long-term cleanup actions EPA begins the process of determining if a site qualifies for cleanup under Superfund
![Page 26: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Site Discovery
Potential pollution releases are reported by State agencies or the general public EPA investigates All important parties are notified
![Page 27: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Preliminary Assessment (PA)
Review site information Screen site to determine risk of pollution release
![Page 28: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Site Inspection (SI)
Test air, water, or soil at the site
![Page 29: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Evaluate Risk Use a standard system (Hazard Ranking System) to score potential risk factors
How harmful is the substance? Does it threaten the human food chain? Does it threaten the air or soil? Does it threaten ground water? Is the substance migrating from the source?
![Page 30: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Evaluate Risk (continued) Sites scoring at or above an established level are proposed for the National Priorities List (NPL) This means that the site qualifies for cleanup under the Superfund Program (NPL Listing)
![Page 31: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
OK...So the Site is on the NPL. What Next?
The next steps show how EPA, States, and Potentially Responsible Parties (PRP) develop, design, and conduct cleanups at Superfund sites
![Page 32: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Selecting a Remedy
A Proposed Plan informs the public on the preferred cleanup option (Remedy Selection) The public reviews and comments on the Proposed Plan, either in writing or at the public meeting. All relevant documents are maintained in the information repository.
![Page 36: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Record of Decision
A final decision on the cleanup (Record of Decision) is released, which includes cleanup goals, significant changes to the proposed remedy (if any), possible hazardous substances remaining on the site, further analysis and review, and appropriate time frame.

Construction Complete Once all on-site physical construction is done, the site is listed as "Construction Complete" This does not mean that cleanup is done, just that:
The methods and materials to do the cleanup are in place All immediate threats have been addressed Long-term threats are being controlled
![Page 40: Community 101: An Overview of the Superfund Program sites Involve communities in the cleanup process Make responsible parties pay for cleanups Return previously-polluted land to productive](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042118/5e96b25908ef54678d07feea/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Operation & Maintenance (O&M)
Ensure that the required equipment is installed and that the remedy is operational and functional
EPA monitors the site cleanup process Site responsibility transfers to the State or PRPs
