Superfund
Reauthorization
On October 17, 1986, the Presi-
dent signed the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthoriza-
tion Act of 1986 (SARA) into law.
The act codifies the process and
program established in the re-
vised National Contingency Plan
(NCP) in November 1985 while
adding some new provisions
and statutory emphasis to por-
tions of the program. Most
significant for the remedy selec-
tion process are the cleanup
standards provisions in §121.
This section calls for remedial
actions that are protective of
human health and the environ-
ment, that are cost effective,
that attain the applicable or rele-
vant and appropriate require-
ments of other Federal environ-
mental statutes and more strin-
gent State requirements, and
that use permanent solutions
and treatment technologies to
the maximum extent prac-
ticable. Progress in developing
implementation guidelines for
the cleanup standards will be
reported in the months to come.
A Line on RODS mmmm
ROD Data Base
The Office of Emergency and
Remedial Response (OERR) and
Ihe Office of Information
Resources Management (OIRM)
have been working together to
enter the Superfund remedy
selection documents (RODs and
EDDs) into BASIS, an automated
text search and retrieval system
similar to LEXIS, which EPA pur-
chased last year. At present, all
of the RODs signed from FY'82
through FY'85 have been
entered. Plans for institutionaliz-
ing this in-house system—con-
ducting QA/QC, entering the
FY'86 decision documents,
training—are under develop-
ment. EPA technical, legal, or
policy staff interested in becom-
ing early users are welcome. All
you need is a PC, a modem to
patch into the National Com-
puter Center at RTP, and a user
identification number. To obtain
the latter, and for more general
information, call Betsy Shaw at
FTS 382-3304
FY'86 RECORD OF
DECISION (ROD)
SUMMARY TABLE
The FY'86 Record of Decision
Summary Table provides an
overview of site problems,
selected remedies, cleanup
criteria, and estimated costs
provided in all RODs signed in
FY'86. This table reflects
remedial program accomplish-
ments in incorporating alter-
native technologies into source
control remedial actions. Sixty
of the 84 RODs signed in FY'86
address source control
remedies. Of these 60 RODs, 27
selected alternative technolo-
gies (ATs). Incineration was the
AT most often selected in FY'86
(39 percent), while solidification
was selected 22 percent of the
time. These two technologies
comprise 61 percent of all ATs
selected in FY'86. For one site,
Fields Brook, Ohio, both in-
cineration and solidification
were selected as part of a
source control remedial action.
