Bush Selects Johnson
as Administrator
President George W. Bush announces Stephen Johnson as his
nominee for EPA Administrator in the Roosevelt Room at the
White House Friday, March 4, 2005.
Current Acting EPA Ad-
ministrator Stephen
Johnson has been se-
lected for the permanent post by
President Bush. At the March
4th nomination announcement at
the White House, the President
described Johnson as "a talented
scientist and skilled manager
with a lifelong commitment to en-
vironmental stewardship" and
welcomed his experience as a sci-
entist in helping "set clear, ratio-
nal standards for environmental
quality." In his remarks, Johnson
said that he was "deeply honored"
by the nomination. He also ac-
knowledged the contributions of
former Administrators Michael
Leavitt, now head of Health and
Human Services, and Christine
Todd Whitman.
If confirmed by the Senate,
Johnson would be the first EPA
employee to become Administrator.
In his 24 years of service with the
Agency, he has held a number of
posts, including Deputy EPA Ad-
ministrator and Assistant Admin-
istrator of EPAs Office of Preven-
tion, Pesticides, and Toxic Sub-
stances.

forcer award will be presented to John
Kilborn of Region 1's Office of Envi-
ronmental Stewardship, Superfund
Legal Office. John used his real es-
tate expertise to assist with the rede-
velopment of the Raymark Site in
Stratford, Connecticut, including en-
couraging a local bank to use "green
building" principles when construct-
ing a new branch on the former site.
He also crafted a "comfort letter" to
municipalities that were concerned
about converting former railroad
tracks to bike trails for fear that EPA
vestigate potentially responsible par-
ties (PRPs). For the AIW Frank Site,
Carlyn discovered that the PRP was
gambling significant sums of money
while asserting an inability to pay EPA
for costs at the site. In addition, Carlyn
helped identify PRPs to the Maryland
Sand Gravel & Stone Site and negoti-
ated a consent decree worth over $20
million.

with a combined worth of $54 million.
Special accounts are Superfund sub-
accounts containing settlement money
to be used at particular sites, and in
some cases money remains unused in
accounts. The team held site-specific
meetings for each account, identified
more effective ways to manage the
accounts, and produced comprehen-
sive site-by-site analysis. They iden-
tified 24 out of the 32 accounts re-
viewed that could be paid down, for a
payroll benefit of nearly $1 million.
They also developed procedures for
managing special accounts that can
be adopted by other Regions.
Superfund - Enforcement
Team
The winners of the Enforcement
Team Award accomplished a con-
sent decree for the Tennessee Prod-
ucts Superfund Site in Chatta-
nooga, Tennessee worth over $23
million. The consent decree requires
the potentially responsible parties to
perform the remedy and reimburse
EPA for some of its past costs. The
team members from EPA Region 4—
Nestor Young, Janice Thomas, Cheryl
Smout, Kent Mayo, William Sapp.
and Stacey Haire—were able to con-
vince the defendants to settle because
they assembled and presented com-
pelling evidence in the negotiations.
The team, assisted by David Batson
of EPA's Conflict Prevention and Reso-
lution Center, also effectively used
alternative dispute resolution to ne-
gotiate the consent decree, thereby
affording lengthy and costly litigation.

Institutional Controls Implementation
Strategy Announced
The Office of Site
Remediation Enforcement,
the Office of Superfund
Remediation and Technology Innova-
tion and the 10 EPA Regional Offices
have launched a nationwide effort to
review institutional controls (ICs) at
all Superfund sites where remedy con-
struction activities have been com-
pleted. ICs are non-engineeredinstru-
ments, such as administrative and
legal controls, that help minimize hu-
man exposure to contamination and
protect the integrity of the remedy. The
offices and Regions announced a strat-
egy to review ICs in a September 2004
memorandum, "Strategy to Ensure In-
stitutional Controls Implementation at
Superfund Sites." The strategy calls
for identifying.priority sites with poten-
tial 1C issues and developing Region-
specific action plans; outlines site-spe-
cific follow-up activities; establishes a
new 1C coordination and communica-
tion structure; and describes steps to
improve EPAs capacity for evaluat-
ing 1C effectiveness. Through a com-
bination of priority reviews and regu-
larly scheduled Five-Year Reviews,
EPA anticipates a five-year schedule
to evaluate all potential 1C issues at
Superfund sites where remedy con-
struction activities are complete.
Recently, EPA has imp roved its ap-
proach to ICs by issuing guidance,

Controls, continued from page 3
adding IC-related language to model
documents (e.g., the Model RD/RA
Consent Decree), developing the Insti-
tutional Controls Tracking System
(IGTS), identifying both program and
legal 1C coordinators for each region.
and forming the national Management
Advisory Group for ICs. These im-
provements, however, have tended to
benefit recently remediated sites. The
strategy ensures that sites addressed
earlier in the Superfund program also
receive the benefit of subsequent 1C
experience. Because 1C information
at older sites is sometimes not cen-
tralized or reliable, EPA gathered
baseline information about ICs at 899
construction complete sites, and iden-
tified and prioritized sites where 1C
implementation either had not oc-
curred or might have been per-
formed incorrectly.
EPA expects that evaluation and
corrective measures will be initiated
at priority sites within one year af-
ter issuance of the strategy. EPAis
also working on improving 1C use
and ensuring that all construction
completion sites are critically evalu-
atedin the next five year review and
all sites in the future receive ad-
equate 1C evaluations. In FY 2005.
EPA plans to supplement the five-
year review and operation and main-
tenance plan guidance, provide fo-
cused training on ICs and ICTS, and
conduct outreach activities to in-
volve other parties in identifying
and resolving IC-related issues. EPA
has also begun developing guidance
for Institutional Controls Implemen-
tation and Assurance Plans, devel-
oping guidance for calculating the full
life-cycle costs of ICs, and revising
model CERCLA and RCRA enforce-
ment documents to reflect new 1C
guidance.

Triad Approach Streamlines Site
Activities and Reduces Costs
By Ann Eleanor, Office ofSuperfund Remediation and Technology Innovation
EPA's waste programs, and a
number of other practitioners
in the waste cleanup commu-
nity, are exploring the Triad approach
to site cleanup. Triad replaces the tra-
ditional prescriptive approach to site
characterization, cleanup, and moni-
toring with a more dynamic and com-
prehensive approach that is flexible
and recognizes site-specific decisions
and data needs. This approach incor-
porates advancing science, technology.
and lessons-learned from the field.
EPA's Technology Innovation Program
minedpractitioner experiences for tech-
niques leading to successful, effi-
cient and less expensive remedial
projects. The Triad approach was
assembled around the common
factor that made projects success-
ful: management of all sources of
uncertainty in project data.
The three elements of Triad—sys-
temic project planning, dynamic work
strategies, and real-time measure-
ment technologies—are integrated to
attain more efficient and affordable
project management. By including 'if-
then' approaches, scientifically sound
site models can be developed and cor-
rected in real-time, streamlining site
activities and cutting life-cycle costs
and lifespan by a third or more. Sys-
tematic planning keeps all concerned
parties informed, involved, and fo-
cused on project objectives through-
out the cleanup process.
Triad was used successfully for the
The Navy estimates it saved $2.5
million using the Triad approach
for a chlorinated solvent source
investigation at Camp Pendleton.
Milltown Redevelopment Project for
the New Jersey Department of Envi-
ronmental Protection. Through sys-
tematic planning, stakeholders were
continuously involved which enabled
efficient resource distribution be-
tween planning phases, and the
sample collection phase was stream-
lined. EPA's Environmental Re-
sponse Team used a freeware data-
base decision-support tool to manage
data and direct real-time sampling for
organic compounds and metals. After
more than a year of planning, the ac-
tual field work took only eight weeks.
The redevelopment company is very
pleased with the Triad approach and
the time saved. The continuously-re-
fined conceptual site model has al-
lowed the developer to re-examine site
reuse and efficiently align reuse de-
signs with site conditions.
For a chlorinated solvent source in-
vestigation at Camp Pendleton Ma-
rine Corps Base, this approach helped
manage decision uncertainty and ex-
pedite the site management pro-
cess. Direct-push deployed in situ
sensors provided real-time, high-
density data sets to delineate sub-
surface contamination, confirming
a very small solvent mass that
regulators readily agreed posed no
threat to receptors. The Navy esti-
mated that Triad saved $2.5 million
and cut the project schedule by three
years.
Additional information on Triad is
available through the Triad Resource
Center at: http://www.triadcentral.org.
The center contains a growing selec-
tion of resources for design, implemen-
tation, and legal defensibility of the
Triad approach.
EPA Proposes Groundwater Remedy
for Southeast Federal Center
EPA is proposing long-term
treatment and monitoring of
groundwater and institu-
tional controls preventing use of
groundwater for drinking water for the
Department of Transportation par-
cel of Southeast Federal Center. The
proposed remedy will eventually re-
store groundwater at the site to drink-
ing water standards. Drinking water
is currently pumped in from a local
utility.
The Department of Transportation
(DOT) parcel constitutes 11 acres of
the 55-acre Washington Navy Yard.

tion site on the Anacostia River in
DC that is being cleaned up and rede-
veloped. Construction of a new 1.35-
million-square-foot DOT headquarters
at the site began in 2004, following the
excavation and removal of contami-
nated soils. The building is scheduled
to open in 2006.
The public comment period for the
proposed remedy ends March 28, 2005.

District Courts Digest Cooper v. Aviall Ruling
By David Dowton, Office of Site Remediation Enforcement
On December 13, 2004, the
Supreme Court held in
Cooper Industries v. Aviall
Services 125 S. Ct. 577, that the plain
language of CERCLA Section
113(f)(l) allows a potentially respon-
sible party to seek contribution only
"during or following" a "civil ac-
tion" under CERCLA Sections
106 or 107(a). Two recent district
court decisions cited the Supreme
Court's decision when denying
private party claims to recover
cleanup costs.
In AMWMat'ls Testing, Inc v. Town
of Babylon, 348F.Supp.2d4 (E.D.N.Y,
2004), the district court denied AMW
and the property owner's claim to re-
cover costs from the cleanup of haz-
ardous substances discovered after a
fire in AMWs paint room. The plain-
tiffs argued that the Town and local
fire department were liable as opera-
tors under CERCLA. The plaintiffs
asserted causes of action under
CERCLA Sections 107 and 113 and
certain common law theories. The
court held that the plaintiffs: (1) had
not offered material evidence that the
defendants were CERCLA operators;
(2) could not bring a claim under Sec-
tion 107 because they were not inno-

Court decisions cite Cooper v.

cent parties; and (3) pursuant to Aviall,
could not bring a contribution claim
under Section 113 because they had
incurred cleanup costs voluntarily and
in the absence of "judicial or adminis-
trative measures to compel cleanup."
The Southern District of New York
reached the same conclusion on the is-
sue of whether a liable party can bring
a claim under Section 107. In Elementis
Chenis., Inc. v. TH Agriculture & Nutri-
tion, 2005 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 1404
(S.D.N.Y., 2005), the district court
found that Elementis could not
bring a claim under Section 107 to
recover costs it had incurred per-
forming a voluntary cleanup. Fol-
lowing the Supreme Court's Aviall
decision, the Plaintiff acknowl-
edged in a supplemental brief
that it could not recover its vol-
untary costs under Section
113(f) because it had not been
subject to a Section 106 or 107
action. Elementis maintained.
however, its claim under Section
107, arguing that the Aviall deci-
sion effectively overruled prior Sec-
ond Circuit case law holding that
a liable party could not bring such
a claim. The Court disagreed and
held that Elementis had no valid
CERCLA claim under Section 107.

Companies Fined for Violations of RCRA Order
A group of current and former
owners of a south Seattle.
Washington industrial site
will be required to pay $720,250 to
EPA for the failure to abide by the
cleanup terms of a 1993 Administra-
tive Order. This industrial site manu-
factured and processed a wide variety
of chemicals until closing in April
1991. From the 1930s through 1986,
chemical products were manufactured
at the site including glues, resins, and
hardeners. Beginning in 1952, the fa-
cility was usedto make vanillin, which
is used in flavoring foods and manu-
facturing drugs. These manufactur-
ing processes have resulted in a long
history of above and below ground re-
leases of contaminants such as tolu-
ene, arsenic, cadmium, copper, mineral
oil, sulfuric acid, and other pollutants.
Sampling at the site has detected con-
tamination of groundwater flowing
into the Lower Duwamish River, a
Superfund site.
The group of companies which in-
clude the current site owner Container
Properties LLC., as well as Bayer
CropScience (the successor of Rhone-
Poulenc Inc.) and Rhodia, Inc., were
required by the 1993 Administrative
Order, issued under the authority of
the Resource Conservation and Recov-
ery Act, to follow a work plan to con-
struct and operate facilities to prevent
contaminants from entering the Lower
Duwamish River. The companies
failed to comply with several require-
ments of the Order, including failing
to construct the approved groundwa-
ter treatment system and to conduct
sampling in accordance with the ap-
proved Work Plan. EPA will now con-
sider each company as a Significant
Non-Complier, a term usedto identify
chronic violators or those who deviate
substantially from the terms of an or-
der. In both 1998 and 2000, the same
companies paid penalties of $320,000
and $159,500, respectively, for failing
to conduct required cleanup work at
this site.

Two New Hazardous Waste Rules Finalized
By Diane Bartosh, Office of Solid Waste
Hazardous Waste Manifest
Streamlined
On January 27, 2005, EPAimproved
the tracking of hazardous waste ship-
ments by establishing a nationally
standardized manifest form. This new
form makes the nation's hazardous
waste tracking system more efficient
by replacing differing state formats
with one national form. This stream-
lined approach will benefit waste han-
dlers and regulators by reducing the
costs and time associated with man-
aging multiple forms, while maintain-
ing the safety of EPA's well-estab-
lished cradle-to-grave hazardous
waste tracking system.
EPA estimates the change in paper-
work burden resulting from this rule
will save states and industry between
$12-20 million annually. More than
139,000 businesses in approximately
45 industries are expected to achieve
time and cost efficiencies through the
new tracking system. These busi-
nesses ship approximately 12 million
tons of hazardous wastes annually and
use between 2 and 5 million Hazard-
ous Waste Manifests.
By using a streamlined and consis-
tent national standard, hazardous
waste handlers can better track com-
plicated shipments, such as container
residues, rejected wastes and inter-
national shipments. The new form
also makes it easier to collect data
for hazardous waste reporting. The
new form will be phased in over an
18-month transition period. Once the
new form is in place, handlers will be
able to obtain new forms from any
source that has registered with EPA
to print and distribute them. The rule
was published in the Federal Register
March 4, 2005. More information is
available at: http://www.epa.gov/
epaoswer/hazwaste/gener/manifest/
index.htm.

ment, and food, drug and cosmetic in-
dustries as hazardous waste K181.
While listed hazardous waste must be
strictly managed under Subtitle C of
the Resources Conservation and Recov-
ery Act (RCRA), the Agency is using a
flexible regulatory approach that fo-
cuses on total quantities of chemical
constituents of concern in a waste that
present the greatest risk. The K181
listing focuses on seven hazardous con-
stituents.
Waste that contains less than the
specified threshold levels of constitu-
ents of concern are not hazardous (e.g..
aniline levels below 9,300 kg/yr). More-
over, regulatory exemptions are pro-
vided for waste either sent for disposal
in landfills that meet specific design
standards or treated in an approved
combustion unit. Waste that does not
qualify for these exemptions, and that
meets or exceeds the specified thresh-
olds for any of the specific constituents
of concern, must be managed as listed
hazardous waste K181. These dye and
pigment classes are commonly used for
coloring textiles, paper, plastics.
leather, inks, paints/coatings, food.
drugs, and cosmetics. EPA estimates
that about 36 facilities annually gen-
erate about 36,000 metric tons of po-
tentially affected waste. This rule was
published in the Federal Register on
February 24, 2005.
This regulation is a major milestone
for EPA because it is the final action
resulting from a lawsuit filed by the
Environmental Defense Fund (now En-
vironmental Defense) in 1989. The
lawsuit was filed to enforce EPA's le-
gal deadlines under the 1984 Hazard-
ous and Solid Waste Amendments for
listing hazardous waste. Additional
