Superfund Today
 EPA  Celebrates  400th  Cleanup!
   The Lord-Shope Landfill in rural Girard
 Township, Pennsylvania just became the
 400th Superfund site to reach the "construc-
 tion complete" milestone.
       A construction
     completion site is a
   former toxic waste site
       where physical
     construction of all
     cleanup actions are
  complete, all immediate
     threats have been
     addressed, and all
    long-term  threats are
       under control.
   Carol Browner, EPA's Administrator,
 helped the Girard Township community
 celebrate Lord-Shope's construction
 completion status on October 15, 1996
 along with representatives of the Lord
 Corporation—whose wastes, disposed of
 in the landfill, contaminated the ground
 water. As Administrator Browner stated:
     " This site is a symbol for the nation
    of what we can do when we join
    together, community by community,
    to clean toxic waste sites. It is also a
    symbol of the progress we've made in
    speeding up cleanups and making
    Superfund work faster, fairer, and
    more efficiently, in communities across
    the country."

   Lord-Shope Landfill was once a dump
 that contained large amounts of hazardous
 materials including rubber scrap, solvents,
   caustics, acids, and other chemicals.  Soils
   and ground water were contaminated with
   volatile organic chemicals and lead, and the
   local water supply was threatened. The con-
   struction completion success at this site was
   a team effort between residents, the Com-
   monwealth of Pennsylvania, EPA, and the
   Lord Corporation.
  t/ Community members worried about the
    effects of toxic chemicals and debris on
    health, property, and quality of life in-
    formed the state and EPA about the situ-
    ation.
  1r Pennsylvania's Department of Environmen-
    tal Resources protected residents from the
    more immediate threats by removing 81
    drums of waste and covering the landfill
    with a clay cap to keep contamination
    from spreading.
I/EPA designed the long-term remedy to
  protect the ground water and soil, and
  supervised the cleanup.
I/'Lord Corporation is performing and pay-
  ing for the cleanup action under EPA's
  supervision. The price tag to date tops
  $5.5 million.
  Cleanup construction is now complete at
Lord-Shope.  A cutoff wall was installed to
prevent lateral ground water migration through
the fill materials thus helping to prevent future
ground water contamination.  Ground water
cleanup is proceeding via pump and treat and
continued monitoring of contaminants  in
ground water. Meanwhile, an innovative tech-
nology—vapor stripping—is  being used to
decontaminate the soils. Parts of the site
surface are ready for reuse, and options for
future use are being considered.

     Construction Completions

      The students, said Browner,
     represent the future that the
     EPA, working in partnership with
     industry, aims to protect and
     salvage.

                            Superfuna Today — Construction Completion
  Accelerating  the  Pace
  Moving More  Sites  to  Construction Completion
   The Superfund program is moving faster than ever
  to clean up hazardous waste sites in communities all
  around the country.  EPA completed construction at
  more sites in the last four years than were completed in
  the previous twelve years. In fact, more than 60% of
  the 410 current total construction  completion sites
  were completed in the last four years. EPA has imple-
  mented a series of reforms within the Superfund pro-
  gram that are likely to accelerate the pace of cleanup
  (such as presumptive remedies).  Committed to make
  Superfund work "faster, fairer, and more efficiently,"
  EPA is right on track to move more  sites through the
  cleanup pipeline to construction completion than ever
  before.
"[The] 400th cleanup shows that we have delivered
       on our pledge to dramatically
   accelerate the pace of toxic waste cleanups...
    we are committed that Superfund must
     continue to work for the benefit of our
   communities—to protect our health and
   our environment for generations to come—
    and to meet our fundamental promise to
     the American people—the promise of
   fresh air to breathe, clean water to drink,
 safe food to eat, and land that is safe to live on."

The Superfund program initiated the construction completion program in 1991. In recent years, the construction completion "pace" has quickened.

   Construction  Completion
   What it  Means
    A construction completion site is a
  former toxic waste site where physi-
  cal construction of all cleanup ac-
  tions  are  complete, all  immediate
  threats have been addressed, and all
  long-term threats are under control.
    Bringing a toxic waste site to con-
  struction completion is a significant
  benchmark in the cleanup process. It
  means contaminants are no longer
  threatening the health and well-be-
  ing of the surrounding community
  or spreading uncontrolled through
  the soil, surface water,  or  ground
  water.
    At construction completion sites,
  EPA has designed and  implemented
  cleanup remedies to eliminate con-
                       tamination and restore the environment
                       so that it may be reused.  Even though
                       long-term cleanup actions may still be
                       operating, the site is often ready to be
                       reused for economic, social, or environ-
                       mental purposes.
                        The diagram below shows a before and
                       after example of a toxic dump site that has
                       reached the construction completion stage.
                       Once the contaminated drums and pol-
                       luted soil are removed, a cutoff wall is
                       installed and a pump and treat station is
                       built to clean the ground water. Redevel-
                       opment  can be considered even though
                       ground water treatment will continue for
                       a number of years.
                        The following examples illustrate ways a
                       site may reach construction completion.
                                           t/ Many construction completion sites in-
                                             clude long-term treatment—For example,
                                             EPA might treat polluted  soils and
                                             wastes that contaminated ground wa-
                                             ter.  Waste would no longer enter the
                                             aquifer, but ground water would con-
                                             tinue to be pumped and treated until
                                             clean-perhaps for 20 years or  more.
                                             Meanwhile, the site surface is ready for
                                             redevelopment.
                                           tr Construction Completion can also mean
                                             containment of hazardous waste—For
                                             example, EPA "caps" a landfill with an
                                             impermeable layer, and installs drains
                                             and gas collection systems to contain
                                             contamination. If no further long term
                                             treatment is necessary, the site is deemed
                                             construction complete.

Cleanup  Tools
Behind the  Scenes  at  a  Superfund  Site
  Each Superfund site is a fresh challenge.
Landscapes and contours are unique, land
uses vary, the contaminant mix is differ-
ent, and options abound for site reuse. To
deal with these situations, EPA approaches
every site with a variety of cleanup options.
These cleanup technologies are designed
to fulfill  EPA's mission of protecting hu-
man health and the environment,  maxi-
mizing potential for site reuse, and mini-
mizing costs to taxpayers in local commu-
nities.
 Superfund's Established
 Technologies
  At construction completion sites, EPA
 employed more than two dozen different
 types of cleanup approaches that are    tai-
 lored both to the types of contaminants and
 the natural resources that are polluted (such
 as soil and ground water). For contaminated
 soils, "excavation and removal" was the most
 common method used  at construction
 completion  sites. This method commonly
 removes polluted soil and debris by trucking
 it from a site and  treating it at a licensed
 hazardous waste facility.
  The  technology most often used at con-
 taminated ground water sites was "pump and
 treat." This method pumps water out of the
 ground through a series of wells, cleans it by
 treating the contaminants, and either rein-
 jects it back into the ground, discharges it
 into surface water, or sends it to a municipal
 water treatment plant.
  These cleanup  approaches may  sound
 simple; however, most Superfund sites con-
 tain more than one type of chemical,  and
 often both water and soil resources are af-
 fected.  When this is the case, EPA may use
 a combination of solutions including  one or
 more of:

 1) containing the contaminants (surface
   drainage control, soil capping, solidifi-
   cation);
2) separating harmful chemicals from the
  soil or water (soil vapor extraction, air
  stripping, carbon adsorption, soil
  flushing, thermal desorption); and/or
3) rendering the material less toxic
  (bioremediation, incineration).
  For example, in order  to separate and
cleanse oily wastes from soil at a dump site in
Gray, Maine, a two-step aeration and heat-
ing process was used. This process involved
extracting contaminants from more than
12,000 cubic yards of soil and treating it on
                                        site.
Streamlining the
Cleanup Process with
"Presumptive Remedies"
  Superfund's experience with developing
and applying technologies gradually revealed
certain contamination and cleanup patterns.
As a result, EPA streamlined the cleanup
process in cases where contaminants are simi-
lar and cleanup technologies are proven, as
at municipal landfills and wood treatment
facilities. EPA calls these cost-efficient and
timesaving approaches "presumptive rem-
edies." By applying lessons learned at previ-
ous cleanups, the Agency can reduce costs
and save time while  ensuring cleanup of
equal quality.

Development of Cutting Edge
Technologies
  When EPA began  full-scale cleanup of
Superfund sites in the early 1980s, there were
very few tested remedies and almost no infor-
mation on the performance of hazardous
waste cleanup. The Agency understood from
the beginning the importance of developing
new technologies that would reduce cleanup
costs and make them more effective.  EPA is
now at the point where that investment is
paying off.  Today over 350 innovative tech-
nology projects are completed, planned, or

 underway at Superfund sites. Examples
 of innovative technologies that EPA re-
 cently added include: flushing chemicals
 from soils while the soils remain in place;
 heating soil to vaporize  contaminants
 and capture them; and introducing mi-
 croorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi,
 to break down hazardous chemicals into
 less harmful substances.

Ready  for  Reuse
Reclaiming  Our  Land  and Water
Beneficial Reuse is a
 Team Effort

  The actual reuse of a site is driven by
many factors—local business climate,
real estate and land  prices, and natural
features.  However, the most important
aspect is  the early  involvement of all
interested parties, namely local citizens,
municipal leaders, businesses, and state
officials.  Throughout the cleanup pro-
cess, from site identification (discov-
ery) to construction completion, EPA
encourages open dialogue with the com-
munity to determine reuse opportuni-
ties.
  Reuse can create  many benefits that
productively impact local communities,
including new jobs,  higher property
values, and better quality of life through
the preservation of open space and rec-
reational  areas. In short, EPA remains
committed to cleaning up toxic hot spots
and making cleaned areas  available,
where possible, for productive reuse by
local communities.

Construction Completion Sites
Returned to Productive Use

  Contrary to the image of Superfund
sites as toxic and barren eyesores, many
construction completion sites can soon
can be used in  some productive way.
The sites vary in use from commercial to
industrial activity, from retail  to food
service, or even high-tech manufactur-
ing.
  The Krysowaty Farm site in New Jer-
sey, once an illegal dumping area, is now
being used as a plant nursery. The Tronic
Plating Company site in New  York, a
former electroplating facility, was con-
verted  for warehouse storage and a fac-
tory for contact lenses.
   Superfund sites are also being re-
stored  to places where people can
live and  play.   One  such site is
Chisman Creek, near Newport News,
Virginia, which reached construction
completion in December 1990.  This
former fly ash disposal  site is now a
community park with  sports fields
and walking trails.   Likewise,   the
Petersen Sand and Gravel site in Illi-
nois, once a contaminated gravel pit,
is being used by watersports enthusi-
asts and picnickers.
  Many sites are set aside as natural
areas. Imagine some of the most dan-
gerous hazardous  waste sites in the
country transformed into places where
aquatic birds migrate and feed.   That
is exactly what happened at the Bayou
Sorrel  site  in  Louisiana, where the
cleanup of  more than 36,000 cubic
yards of petrochemical waste restored a
productive wetland.  Also,  efforts  at
the Woodbury Chemical Co. site  in
Florida eliminated  waterborne toxins
in a local canal that harmed manatees,
an endangered species.
