Superfund Sets New Record For Cleanups
FY'92 was a landmark year for Superfund cleanups.
More sites on the National Priorities List were com-
pleted during that time than in the 11 previous years in
the program's history.
From 1980, when Superfund was created, through
FY'91,63 NPL sites had been completed. When FY'92
came to a close, the total climbed to 149. This achieve-
ment exceeded by 15 percent the goal Administrator
Bill Reilly set for completing 130 sites by the end of
FY'92.
The pace at which all construction is being com-
pleted at NPL sites is now one site per week. Assis-
tant Administrator for Solid Waste and Emergency
Response Don Clay said he expects this pace to
continue for the foreseeable future. "At the rate we're
going," Don predicted, "we are confident we'll reach
the Administrator's goal of completing 200 sites by the
end of FY'93 and 650 sites by the end of FY 2000."
Other accomplishments in
FY'92:
—From those responsible for
site problems, EPA obtained
commitments of almost $1.5
billion to pay for site work.
That's a new record. FY'92 is
also the third consecutive
year that EPA surpassed the
$1 billion mark.
—With regard to
Superfund contracts,
program management
costs decreased from nearly 30 percent in
FY'90 to about 14 percent.
—The Agency also took a more active role in
matching clean-up needs with vendors of at
least 150 innovative technologies.

EPA To Pilot New Type of "Clothes Drive"
On Monday, November 16 at Waterside Mall, we will be kicking off an exciting demon-
stration project—a "clothes drive" that's unlike any you've ever seen before.
Along with the Neighborhood Cleaners Association and the International Fabricare
Institute, EPA's Design for the Environment Program (OPPTS) has arranged to have two
local dry cleaners help collect clothes for a process that does not use traditional dry-clean-
ing solvents. This process, called wet cleaning, could substitute for some dry cleaning
done in the U.S. at this time.
Wet cleaning relies on heat, steam, pressing, and biodegradable soaps to clean clothes. In-
creased use of wet cleaning would result in less exposure to chlorinated solvents.
How can you help make a difference? Between November 16-December
16, you may drop off and pick up your clothes at either Senate Dry
Cleaners in Waterside Mall or Elite Dry Cleaners in L'Enfant Plaza.
The cost of wet cleaning will be comparable to dry cleaning.
For this project to work, the dry cleaners will need to collect about
1,500 garments a week. The results of this effort should help us to
answer the following questions:
• Is wet cleaning cost effective?
• Are there ways to improve the wet cleaning process?
As we get closer to the November 16-December 16 project, please
look for flyers giving you further details.

A QUICK LOOK AT EPA NEWS AROUND THE NATION
EPA LABORATORIES
• Environmental Research Laboratory, Duluth, MN—
ERL-D is working with the Fond du Lac Indian Reser-
vation and the Center of American Indian and
Minority Health to develop American Indian student
programs. The purpose of these programs is to stimu-
late interest in the sciences and to provide research
opportunities for high school students and K-12 teach-
ers. ERL-D also plans to develop a pre-collegiate pro-
gram with the Fond du Lac Community College, one of
only 27 tribal colleges in the U.S. (Contact: Sherry
Linder, 218-780-5543.)
• Office of Administration and Resources Management,
Cincinnati, OH—Bill Henderson, OARM Director, EPA-
Cinci, was recently appointed Chairman of the Greater
Cincinnati Federal Executive
Board for the 1992-93 term. At
the annual FEE awards
ceremony on September 22,
Judge Arthur Spiegel adminis-
tered the oath of office. Execu-
tives from 60 federal agencies
serve on the Board, which
represents more than 15,000
employees. (Contact: Tish
Newland, 513-569-7913.)
• Stennis Space Center, MS—
More than two dozen employ-
ees from EPA's Environmental Chemistry Laboratory
and EPA's Gulf of Mexico Program Office participated
in the "Take Pride/Gulf-Wide Beach Cleanup" on
September 19. Organized by Anna Gaule, Gulf Pro-
gram Office, the clean-up drive took place on Horn
Island, a barrier island off the Gulf of Mexico. The
"catch of the day": 29 large bags of trash, a 6-foot long
unbroken fluorescent bulb, and a 50-gallon gas tank
from a car. (Contact: Trudy Oliver, ECL, 601-688-3217.)
• Environmental Research Laboratory, Athens, GA—Four
international scientists have been doing some interest-
ing research at ERL-A since last year: Marina
Yereschukova, Russia State Committee on Hydro-
meteorology and Environmental Protection, water
quality modeling; Dr. Willie Peijnenburg, National
Institute of Public Health, the Netherlands, redox reac-
tion processes; Hans Bouwers, Wageningen Agricultural
University (graduate student), redox reactions of the iron
couple with smectite surfaces; and Dr. Gokhan Cayci,
University of Ankara, Turkey, pesticide transport and
modeling. (Contact: Bob Ryans, 706-546-3306.)
EPA REGIONS
• Region 4—The Nation's first governmentally
sponsored conference on environmental equity
was recently conducted by Region 4 and Clark
Bill Henderson
Atlanta University. Dr. Kofi B. Bota, Director,
CAU's Center for Environmental Policy, Educa-
tion, and Research, told the participants that con-
clusive determinations on the issue could not be
made based on available data and that further
research is necessary. Pat Tobin, Deputy Regional
Administrator for Region 4, said he would look at
current regional procedures to find opportunities
for addressing equity concerns. (Contact: Norm
Black, 404-347-3004.)
• Region 5—Under a recent agreement with EPA,
Krilich Builders of Oakbrook Terrace, IL, will pay
$185,000 for illegally filling more than nine acres of
wetlands at two sites. For Region 5, this fine is an all-
time high for this type of violation. The company has
already restored one of the two sites (Lakemoor, IL); the
other site (Oakbrook, IL) is expected to be restored
shortly. In addition to the fine, Krilich Builders must
bear full restoration costs. (Contact: John Rapsys, 312-
886-6693.)
• Region 8—Thanks to the Rocky Mountain Arsenal
National Wildlife Refuge Act of 1992, Connally Mears
will have his hands full. He is EPA's coordinator for
the cleanup of the arsenal, an effort that may last until
the year 2010. In the meantime, the public's access to
the 27-square-mile site is limited to scheduled bus tours.
(Contact: Larry Diede, 303-294-1977.)
• Region 10—This region is the first EPA office to
provide monthly subsidies
($10) to employees who use
mass transportation systems.
Region 10 is also one of 110
government agencies and
companies in the Seattle area to
become part of "Pacesetters,"
an Economic Development
Council program that recog-
nizes local efforts to reduce the
number of single-occupant
vehicle commuters. "I'm very
proud that we in Region 10 are
part of this important effort," said Regional Administra-
tor Dana Rasmussen. "To date, 313 out of 604 employ-
ees have signed up for the subsidy program." (Contact:
Robyn Meeker, 206-553-8579.)

EPA Joins With Major Computer Firms
To Promote Energy-Efficient PCs
by Cathy Zoi, OAR
On October 14, EPA and Intel Corporation,
America's leading supplier of computer chips, made a
powerful announcement. Beginning with Intel's
"Pentium" series of chips (popularly known as the "586
series"), Intel's breakthrough could save users as much
as $1 billion in annual electricity bills. These chips
could also save enough electricity to power Vermont
and New Hampshire for an entire year.
The announcement is a major milestone for EPA's
Energy Star Computers Program, a partnership with
leading computer manufacturers aimed at developing
personal computers that power down, or "sleep," when
not in use. Research indicates that most of the time the
Nation's 30 million PCs are turned on, they are not
being used. About 30-40 percent are left running at
night and on weekends.
To help reduce this electricity consump-
tion, EPA has signed Energy Star agree-
ments with 12 leading computer
manufacturers that together sell 40 percent
of all desktop computers in the United
States. They are: Acer; Apple Computer

* EPA POLLUTION PREVENTER
Inc.; Compaq Computer Corp.;
Digital Equipment Corp.,
EMPaC; Hewlett-Packard Co.;
Hyundai; IBM Corp.; NCR
Corp.; Silicon Graphics; Smith-
Corona Corp.; and Zenith Data
Systems.
Later this year, EPA plans to
incorporate printers into the
Energy Star Program.
Administrator Bill Reilly
called the announcement "a
major new chapter in corporate-environmental his-
tory." Bill Rosenberg, Assistant Administrator for Air
and Radiation, added, "At EPA alone, we could save
the taxpayers up to $400,000 in electricity costs—
making it the most cost-effective environmen-
tal initiative in federal government
history."

Star Program, please contact Brian

New EPA Interest Group Tackles "Infoglut" Problem
Do you sometimes feel you're drowning in
information, but starved for knowledge? Do
stacks of paper pile up in your in-box every
week while you're left in the dark about many
things that really matter in your job or your life?
Welcome to the Information Age!
Employee surveys indicate that this type of
"information overload" is a growing problem at
EPA. It interferes with clear communications
within the Agency, causes too much paper to be
used and discarded, and creates soaring print-
ing and storage costs for the truckloads of docu-
ments that nobody has time to read.
To deal with information overload and other
communications issues at EPA, Bill Henderson,
OARM-Cincinnati; Charlie Osolin, OCEPA-
Editorial Services; and Daiva Balkus, OIRM-
IMSD, have formed an Internal
Communications and Publishing Interest
Group (ICPIG). The group, which held its first
meeting on October 21, is made up of communi-
cations, publishing, and information technology
specialists who will meet regularly to discuss
barriers to communication and share tips and
ideas on improving EPA's internal communica-
tions and publishing practices. An important
focus will be on finding ways to promote the use
of paperless electronic communications, both
within EPA and with external audiences.
Anyone interested in these issues is welcome.
Meeting times and places, as well as the minutes
of previous meetings and electronic "conversa-
tions" about ICPIG topics, will be posted on the
EPA NEWS NET Bulletin Board in the ALL-IN-1
"electronic conferencing" system (type BB at any
screen to access). Contact: Kym Burke (202-260-
0336; Email: BURKE.KYM.)

New Agency Policy
EPA Streamlines Cash Award Payments
by Jack Shipley, Acting Director, Financial Management Division, OARM
In a move that represents good management, im-
proved service, and source reduction, EPA has shifted
to a more efficient method of paying cash awards.
Starting on October 27,1992, employees will receive
approved cash awards through their biweekly pay
rather than through separate checks. For those em-
ployees who have direct deposit—87 percent of us do
Agencywide—the payment will go directly to their
banks, along with their biweekly salary.
The benefits of this new policy are many. In FY 1991,
for example, EPA issued 12,288 separate award checks.
Laid end-to-end, thaf s over a mile of paper. The new
system will not only save the Agency paper, but also
hundreds of hours that we typically spend distributing
checks. It's safer, too. Last year a number of award
checks were misplaced, which meant additional hours
of staff time were needed to reissue them.
Supervisors will get several days advance notice of
upcoming awards through a new
Cash Awards Report. In this way,
supervisors can plan appropriate
events for recognizing award winners in
their organizations. Also, employees
won't have to wait for such events to be scheduled
before receiving their awards.
Incidentally, in our survey of 11 Federal departments
and agencies, we found that eight of them have already
discontinued the practice of issuing separate award
checks.
One of the people we surveyed said, "It just makes
good sense to use a payroll system that works and is
already in place." We agree—and we hope you do, too.
For more information about the new policy, please
contact Mike Vale, FMD, 202-260-5657. Questions
about EPA's payroll system should be directed to
Charles McLane, FMD, 202-260-8124.
Important Dates For You To Know.,
by Joe Sullivan and Sandy Williams, OHRM
Here are some dates to remember for Novem-
ber and December:
• Annual Leave—By November 28, your sched-
ule for using excess annual leave (over 240
hours) must be approved in writing in order

Special Report Issued—
IG: "Proliferation of EPA Newsletters Is Uncontrolled"
EPA's Office of the Inspector General recently
released a special review report of printing and
photocopying by EPA contractors (Report No.
E6AMG2-13-2043-2400068). OIG undertook a
"special review" of these activities in response
to complaints it had received. ("Special reviews"
are short-term studies that OIG conducts to
identify issues for top management attention.
They are not "audits," which usually involve
more detailed research and which must follow
Government auditing standards.)
The report cites several Agency newsletters
and other materials that were printed by con-
tractors. The U.S. Joint Committee on Printing,
through the Government Printing and Binding
Regulations, strictly prohibits the inclusion of
printing in Government contracts. OARM has
the lead in implementing the report's recom-
mendations in this area, which include training
and contract reviews.
During its review of the printing issue, OIG
raised other questions about EPA newsletters,
such as production costs and duplication of
information. As a result, the report includes the
following recommendations for the Office of
Communications, Education, and Public
Affairs:
— Maintain a complete and current listing of
all Agency newsletters.
— Review and approve existing newsletters
and requests for additional newsletters to
determine whether duplication exists,
graphic standards are met, newsletters can
be combined or eliminated, and costs are
justified.
— Work with the HQ Printing Plant to
develop procedures to ensure that the list
of Agency newsletters is complete and
OCEPA approval has been given prior to
printing.
— Initiate the process to make the October
1991 Handbook, "Developing Products for
the Public," a part of the Agency directives
system.
Within a few weeks, OCEPA will issue a pro-
posed Agency directive (EPA Order) incorporat-
ing these recommendations for Agencywide
comment. In the meantime, OCEPA invites all
EPA Laboratories and Headquarters and
Regional Offices to review their own newsletters
against the issues raised by OIG and take action, as
necessary. If you have any questions, please
contact Kym Burke, OCEPA, 202-260-0336.

On The Hill
by Robin Grove, Director, Congressional Liaison Division, OCLA
The 102nd Congress adjourned on October 9,
passing a number of bills affecting EPA, includ-
ing:
• A comprehensive energy bill.
• The Water Resources Development Act.
• A water reclamation bill (redirecting alloca-
tions of water in California for urban, agri-
cultural, and environmental protection
purposes).
• The Federal Facilities Compliance Act
(waiving sovereign immunity for fines and
penalties under RCRA).
• Legislation converting the Rocky Mountain
arsenal to a wildlife refuge.
• A bill allowing shipments of radioactive
waste to the Waste Isolation Pilot Project
facility in New Mexico.
• EPA's FY'93 Appropriations Bill, which was
signed into law on October 6.
On the other hand, Congress failed to
reauthorize the Clean Water Act or RCRA
(which, when amended in 1984, was authorized
Robin Grove
only through 1988). We
expect that Congress will
take up these important
laws next year.
The Senate ratified
three international envi-
ronmental treaties dealing
with:
• Climate change.
• International ship-
ments of hazardous
waste.
• Protection of the Antarctic environment.
Before the 103rd Congress convenes on Janu-
ary 5, the Senate Democrats and Republicans
will elect their respective leadership November
9-10. House members will meet the second
week in December to elect their new leadership
and hand out committee assignments.
House Democrats will also vote on a new set
of rules that could substantially alter current
House structure and procedures.
Churn—Don't Burn
What To Do With Falling Leaves
by Scott Voorhees, OAR, and Hope Pillsbury, OSWER
A magician stands in the yard of a suburban home, next to
a large pile of leaves. Wlien he snaps his fingers, the pile
ignites spontaneously. "Neat trick, huh? But did you
know that every time you burn leaves, you create air
pollution and a health hazard?" Draping his cape over the
leaves, he changes them into rich humus. '"With a little
work, you can compost leaves instead of burning them."
This is the message in a video public service
announcement that OAR and OSWER recently pro-
duced together. As an alternative to burning, the
PSA promotes composting, the practice of putting
yard trimmings and other organic materials into a
pile, providing adequate moisture, and turning the
pile periodically. Microorganisms break down the
yard trimmings into a decayed substance called
humus, an effective nutrient when spread on gardens
and lawns. More than 2,200 communities in the
United States have community-wide composting
programs.
Leaf burning produces a number of air pollut-
ants, including particulate matter, carbon
monoxide, and hydrocarbons.
Breathing particulate matter can increase the
chances of respiratory infection, reduce the
volume of air inhaled, and impair the lungs'
ability to use that air. Particulate matter can
also trigger asthma attacks in some people.
Carbon monoxide is an invisible gas that is
absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the
amount of oxygen red blood cells can absorb
and supply to body tissues. Unborn children,
newborn infants, smokers, the elderly, and
persons with heart or chronic lung disease are
especially susceptible to difficulties caused by
carbon monoxide.
Hydrocarbons in leaf smoke can cause irrita-
tion of the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs.

541-5348 (Scott) or 202-260-2797 (Hope).
