EPA has Implemented Corrective Actions to Improve Conditions at Asheville, North Carolina Superfund Site

摘要

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) initiated a review of corrective actions implemented by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 4 in response to our Report No. 10-P-0130, EPA Activities Provide Limited Assurance of the Extent of Contamination and Risk at a North Carolina Hazardous Waste Site, May 17, 2010. We sought to determine whether actions agreed to by Region 4 in response to our May 2010 report had been implemented. Additional issues that came to our attention related to environmental or human health risks, or weak Superfund site management controls, were also addressed in this follow-up review.
