Senate Appropriators Urge EPA Consistency Among Sediment Cleanups

摘要

Senate appropriators are urging EPA to bolster the Trump administration's planned Superfund reforms for sediment site cleanups, telling the agency to make additional changes to correct inconsistencies among cleanups at the often complex, expensive sites, echoing industry complaints about the matter. The lawmakers advise the agency to ensure national reviews of cleanup decisions at sediment sites are adopted, and voice support for EPA's exploration of public-private partnerships to further such cleanups.
