MEMORANDUM

SUBJECT:   CERCLIS Data Handling Support  PoA/icy

FROM:      Henry L. Longest II, Director
           Office of Emergency and Remedial Response

TO:        Addressees

     Purpose:  The purpose of this document is to update  the
policy statement published on March  31, 1986.  This update
contains no major changes in policy, but  rather  presents  the
information in accordance with the current document management
standards.

     Background:  The CSC data handling delivery order  is designed
to provide support for the collection, entry and maintenance of
CERCLIS data.  The majority of these resources are  allocated to
provide direct, on-site support to the Regional  Superfund
programs.

     Objective and Implementation:   The Regional Superfund
programs have the responsibility to  ensure that  the resources
provided are fully utilized to support program priorities.

     The following are the responsibilities of the  Regional
offices:

     - providing constant oversight  and direction in  the  conduct
     of daily tasks;

     - ensuring that appropriate staff mix is in place  to meet
     the data handling needs of the  Superfund program;

     - managing the staff mix to stay within the budgetary figure
     allocated to each Region;

     - communicating personnel problems,  changing resource needs,
     training requests and other administrative  issues  to the
     Office of Emergency and Remedial Response (OERR) in  a
     timely manner;
                                                           Printed on Recycled Paper

-------
     - keeping the Deputy Delivery Order Project Officer abreast
     of such proposed changes;  and

     - designating an individual in the Superfund program to be
     accountable for the effective use and management of these
     resources.

     OERR's Management and Systems Development Staff (MSDS)  is
responsible for the national coordination of the delivery order.
Specific responsibilities include:

     - preparing all delivery order modifications to provide
     uninterrupted availability of resources and meet changing
     resource needs when necessary;

     - providing the budget for each Region and tracking resource
     usage;

     - serving as the single point of contact for the Regions with
     the contractor and the Office of Information Resources
     Management (OIRM);

     - communicating frequently with the Regions on all issues
     impacting the delivery order or CERCLIS; and

     - evaluating the effectiveness of the delivery order in
     supporting program priorities.

     OIRM currently supports the Superfund program by serving as
the Delivery Order Project Officer.  Specific responsibilities
include:

     - providing assistance to MSDS in preparation of all
     delivery order modifications;

     - serving as the single point of contact with the Contracting
     Officer; and,

     - communicating frequently with MSDS on all issues impacting
     the delivery order.

     Questions with respect to this policy should be directed to
Mike Cullen, Chief, Management Systems Coordination Branch.
