A systematic methodology is presented and applied for the identification of requirements and issues pertainingrnto the planning for, and transition to, long term stewardship (LTS). The method has been applied to three ofrnthe twelve identified LTS functions. The results of the application of the methodology to contaminated and uncontaminatedrnfederal real property in those three functions are presented. The issues that could be seen as impedimentsrnto the implementation of LTS are also identified for the three areas under consideration. The identified requirementsrnare significant and in some cases complex to implement. It is clear that early and careful planning is requiredrnin all circumstances.
