This Interim Catalog is designed  to supplement the Office  of Solid Waste
and Emergency Response  (OSWER)  Directives System publications by providing
a quick reference  to the most current  policy,  procedural  and technical
directives governing the Office of Elnergency and Remedial Response's (OERR)
Super fund Program.

The Catalog is divided into four sections.  The first contains a listing of
documents by program and key word.  Section II is organized numerically and
abstracts  all  final documents.   Section III  contains a  list of  draft
documents,  with  projected date  for  final  release  and  an  abstract,  if
available.  Finally, an index lists all documents numerically.

This interim version covers  all documents through July  31,  1988.   Regular
supplements will  encompass certain planned changes  for  managing guidance,
as well as a complete update of new issuances.

Copies  of  the Catalog may be  obtained  from  the Superfund Docket  at

analytical support as the Regional laboratories and the Contract Laboratory
Program  (CLP).   Additional contractor sources  available  include  Remedial
(REM), Field Investigation (FIT), and the Environmental Services Assistance
Team  (ESAT).    Generally,  CLPs  are  to be  used  for  analysis  requiring
consistent  methodology,  30-40  day  turnaround, and  data of  known  and
documented  quality.    CLP's Special  Analytical  Services  can  be  used  to
analyze  unusual  matrices.    Remedial  and  Removal  contract  analytical
resources include  fixed and mobile laboratory support.   Choice of analy-
tical  support  should  be driven  by  data requirements.    Users should  be
sensitive to costs,  definition  of  work, enforcement needs, and quality
assurance requirements.   Describes  how  Regions should develop their  own
integrated management and tracking systems to monitor these resources.

Memorandum  addresses  revisions to  the  NCP  that redefine  the  response
categories of removal and remedial actions so that removals now include all
activities  formerly considered immediate  removals,  planned removals,  and
initial  remedial measures.   These  definitional changes  are expected  to
expedite many cleanup activities by avoiding previous remedial requirements
for RI/FS  studies and full cost  effectiveness studies.   Provide  a higher
degree  of  program integration  and  flexibility.   All  removals  are  not
necessarily urgent and all remedial actions are not necessarily deferrable.
This new flexibility will allow additional managerial control of scheduling
and completion of all projects.

Removal Actions At Methane Release Sites
    9360.0-08                1/23/86 - ERD                        2 pages

Clarifies EPA's policy on the appropriateness of CERCLA removal actions at
methane  gas release sites.   As a matter of policy,  CERdA responses to
methane gas releases should be carefully evaluated on a case-by-case basis,
using  this document  as  well as  best  professional  judgement,  and  with
careful  documentation.   Because methane gas is not listed or designated
under any of the statutory provisions  in Section  101(14)  CERCEA, it is not
a "hazardous waste."  However, responses under Section 104 are  not limited
to hazardous  substances.   Since methane gas emanating from a  landfill is
not considered to  be  natural gas,  such  releases may therefore  be eligible
for response  under Section  I04(a)(l)  if methane  gas  otherwise meets the
definition  of  a pollutant or  contaminant under Section 104(a)(2).   As a
matter  of  policy,  CERCLA  responses to methane  gas   releases should  be
carefully evaluated on a case-by-case basis,  using this document as well as
best professional judgement,  and including careful  documentation.
