                                        Background
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) has been an unprecedented effort
to jumpstart our economy, create or save millions of jobs, and address long-neglected challenges
emerging  in  the  21st century.   The  Recovery  Act  includes  $7.22  billion  for  programs
administered by EPA to protect and promote both green jobs and a healthier environment.

EPA began tracking program performance at the end of Fiscal Year 2009. The following report
provides a summary of the performance EPA  and its partners have  achieved through June 30,
2012  (Quarter 3, Fiscal  Year 2012) in  the six  key environmental programs funded by the
Recovery Act and efforts by the Office of the  Inspector General.  Each section includes general
background information on the program, performance metrics, cumulative results and cumulative
long-term targets, and examples of progress. The environmental programs invest in clean water
and drinking water projects, implement diesel emission reduction technologies, clean up leaking
underground storage tanks, revitalize and reuse brownfields, and clean up Superfund sites. To
learn more about the Recovery Act implementation at EPA, visit www.epa.gov/recovery.

In order to ensure accountability and demonstrate progress toward meeting program goals,  EPA
will provide quarterly performance  updates consistent with the  timing of quarterly recipient
reporting. While this report contains the cumulative results since the Recovery Act began, visit
www.epa.gov/recovery/plans.htmltfreports to review weekly financial and activity reports.
                                        Jobs Report
The Recovery Act has created and retained jobs through its implementation over the past several
years. As the table below demonstrates, 4,262 jobs have been funded by ARRA appropriations as
reported by recipients from April 1  to June  30, 2012.l To view EPA recipient reported data for
your state, visit EPA Recipient Reporting on www.recovery.gov.

 Each quarter of jobs data represents a snap-shot in time of the number of jobs funded by Recovery Act for the particular quarter; the results
should not be added cumulatively. Note that the data represented in this chart is the responsibility of the recipients of EPA Recovery Act funds,
and while EPA does conduct a quality check of the data, the primary responsibility for jobs counts resides with the recipients. Also, a continuous
review period for each quarter lasts 75 days, which means the total draft reported jobs numbers presented could change after this report has been
finalized.

                            Clean Water State Revolving Fund
The Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF), in place since 1987, provides funds to states
to capitalize state loan revolving  funds that finance infrastructure improvements for public
wastewater  systems and  other water  quality projects.  The  EPA provides  direct grants to
Washington, DC and the territories for similar purposes.

The EPA received $4 billion for the CWSRF that includes funds for water quality management
planning grants with up to 1% reserved for federal  management and oversight and  1.5% for
Tribes. EPA awarded grants to states and Puerto Rico for their state revolving fund programs,
from which  assistance is provided to finance eligible high priority water infrastructure projects.

The states play a critical role by selecting projects, dispersing funds, and overseeing spending.
Projects  were  selected based on public health  and  environmental factors,  and readiness to
proceed with construction  capability. In addition, states were  also required to provide at least
20% of their grants for green projects (i.e., green infrastructure,  energy or  water efficiency
improvements,  and environmentally innovative activities). States had the option to retain up to
4% of available  funds for program administration.  Visit  www.epa.gov/water/eparecovery to
learn more about the CWSRF.

                          Program Results as of June 30, 2012

States certified  that all project funding was under contract by the February 17, 2010 deadline and
at least 20% of their funds went to green projects.  Collectively,  states far surpassed the 20%
requirement, providing a national total of $1.13 billion, or 30% of all  funds.

                                        The  St.  Mary's  County  Metropolitan  Commission  utilized  a
                                        CWSRF loan under Recovery Act for an energy reuse project. This
                                        project  reduced  emissions of  methane  gas  from  the  sewage
                                        treatment process while simultaneously lowering energy costs. The
                                        funding  contributed  to  the  construction,  administrative  and
                                        contingency  costs of the  Marlay-Taylor  Water  Reclamation
                                        Methane Power Co-Generation and Digester Upgrade project. After
                                        final construction,  the  methane produced  from  on-site  sewage
                                        treatment will be used for the production of electrical energy for use
                                        in the treatment facility. Additionally, rejected heat will supply the
                                        digester's  heating requirements. These energy  savings will be
                                        achieved through the  installation of 2,165 kilowatt generators and
                                        improvements to the digesters. The St. Mary's County Metropolitan
                                        Commission project is an example of an innovative way to reduce
                                        both methane emissions an energy costs  without  great expansion
                                        into previously undisturbed land on the farm.	
The wastewater treatment plant of Columbus, Indiana needed severe upgrades
for continued operation. The  majority of the main process equipment had
reached the end of its useful life, and as a result, the city decided to build a
new plant. Using a CWSRF loan with principal forgiveness under Recovery
Act, Columbus constructed a new plant with  average design flow consistent
with anticipated growth in the city. Plus, the construction of a new plant had
the added benefit of enabling the city to incorporate sustainable infrastructure.
For example, the incorporation of the  Cannibal™ process will reduce sludge
disposal  requirements  by  85% by  conditioning  a portion of the  return
activated sludge to biodegrade in a side stream reactor prior to reintroduction
of the aeration basins. Additionally, energy consumption will be reduced due
to the addition  of variable frequency drives, geothermal  heating and  air
conditioning  units, high efficiency lighting, sensor light controls, and other
building components. This project demonstrates ways that sustainable projects
can help the  CWSRF move forward in a more environmentally friendly and
cost-effective way.

                         Drinking Water State Revolving Fund
The  Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended  in  1996,  established the Drinking Water State
Revolving Fund (DWSRF)  to  make  funds  available to drinking water systems  to finance
infrastructure improvements.  Under the Recovery Act, EPA received $2 billion for the DWSRF
with up to 1% of fund reserved for federal management and oversight and 1.5% for Tribes.

The program emphasizes the provision of funds to small and disadvantaged communities and to
programs that encourage pollution  prevention as a tool for ensuring safe drinking  water. The
DWSRF  provides  funds  to states  to  establish state loan  revolving funds  that  finance
infrastructure improvements for public  and private Community Water Systems and not-for-profit
Non-Community Water Systems and direct grants to Washington, DC and the territories.

The DWSRF consists of 51 state financing programs (includes Puerto Rico) which comply with
federal statute and regulations. States must provide at least 20% of their grants for green projects
(i.e., green  infrastructure, energy  or water  efficiency improvements,  and environmentally
innovative activities) and may retain up to 4% of available funds for program administration. To
learn  more   about  the   DWSRF  implementation   of   the   Recovery   Act,  visit
www. epa. gov/water/eparecovery.

                        Program Results as of June 30, 2012

Over a thousand projects have initiated construction that will bring safe drinking water to many
people across the country. Like the CWSRF, the states certified that all project funding was
under contract by the February 17, 2010 deadline and  at least 20% of their funds went to green
projects.  Many  states surpassed the 20% minimum with the average amount of green reserve
totaling $500 million or 29%  of all funds.

                                In Oklahoma, the City of Wagoner's cast iron water
                                mains were installed in  the early 1900s.  Corrosion
                                has accumulated in the pipe, creating low operating
                                pressures. Water main problems affect 75 businesses
                                on West Cherokee Street alone, including a hospital
                                that has to reschedule surgeries when water service is
                                interrupted.  The City received funds to replace aging
                                water lines  in several areas of the  community.  In
                                addition, the City will purchase a portable generator
                                for its ground storage facility.
The community of Whiteriver, Arizona, in the heart of
the Fort Apache  Indian Reservation, has experienced
significant  population growth  over  the  past  decade
(61%). The community's source of drinking water, the
Miner Flat  well field,  has had its production reduced by
40%  in  the  past few  years  while  consumption  has
increased. To ameliorate the situation, the EPA, Indian
Health Service (MS), Department of Housing and Urban
Development,  and the White Mountain Apache  Tribe
have   collaborated   in   the   planning,   design,   and
construction of an innovative  surface diversion  and
treatment system that will be completed this year.

                                Diesel Emission Reductions
Diesel engines emit large amounts  of air pollutants which contribute to serious public health
problems including asthma, lung cancer and various other cardiac and respiratory diseases. With
funds dispersed through four programs, regional, state and local governments, tribal agencies,
and non-profit organizations received approximately $300 million in grants and loans to support
the implementation of verified and certified diesel emission reduction technologies.

The program aims to accelerate emission reductions from older diesel engines to provide more
immediate air quality benefits and  improve public health  while using Recovery Act funds to
maximize job preservation and creation in order to promote economic recovery.

The Diesel Emission Reductions Act (DERA) awards grants, via the Recovery Act, through the
National Clean Diesel Funding Assistance Program, the State Clean Diesel Grant Program, the
Clean Diesel Emerging  Technologies Funding Assistance  Program,  and the  SmartWay Clean
Diesel Finance Program. Of the  $300 million,  $6 million  has been reserved  for federal
management and oversight. To learn more about the Diesel  Emissions Reductions  Program
implementation of the Recovery Act, visit www.epa.gov/otaq/eparecovery/index.htm.

                                   The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection
                                   is repowering a tugboat in Pittsburgh, one of the nation's
                                   busiest ports.  Approximately  100  tugboats  service  the
                                   Allegheny, Monongahela, and  Ohio  Rivers that surround
                                   Pittsburgh, and this project takes another step to  ensure
                                   cleaner air for the surrounding communities. The tugboat's
                                   current Caterpillar Tier 1 engines will be upgraded to Tier 2
                                   engines which  will  reduce emissions of oxides of nitrogen
                                   (NOx)  by 25%, hydrocarbons  (HC)  by 4%,  particulate
                                   matter (PM) by 33%, and carbon dioxide (CO2) by 1%. On
                                   top  of  the  improvements  to  public  health  and  the
                                   environment, this project will  preserve  32 jobs for local
                                   skilled trade  workers like mechanics  and welders, service
                                   planners, shop supervisors, and hauling companies.
Old agricultural  equipment emits harmful pollutants such
as particulate matter (PM) that can have significant health
impacts, and a number of counties in Utah have PM levels
above air quality standards. With the help of Recovery Act
grants, nine new tractors and new engines for 22 pieces of
farm equipment  had been  ordered to reduce air pollution.
Utah's Department of  Environmental  Quality  (UDEQ)
coordinated this  project with farmers along the Northern
Wasatch  Front. To  find farmers and cattle ranchers who
wanted less polluting  equipment, UDEQ worked with  the
Utah Department of Agriculture and Food and Utah State
University. Participating farmers made it clear that without
the grants,  they would not have been able to replace their
old equipment.

                                      Brownfields
A brownfield  is  a  property, the expansion,  redevelopment,  or  reuse  of which may be
complicated by the  presence or potential presence  of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or
contaminant. Under the Recovery Act,  EPA received  $100  million for the Brownfields
Program.

The  funds provide  awards for brownfields assessment,  cleanup, new and  supplemental
Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) and job training cooperative agreements through a competitive
process. Communities receive technical assistance and targeted brownfields assessments via
regional contracts and Interagency Agreements (IA). Activities to be performed under these
cooperative agreements include, but are not limited to:

   •   assessments to identify the contaminants at properties and initiate cleanup planning;
   •   direct cleanup of brownfield properties;
   •   community involvement activities for property selection, cleanup and reuse planning;
       and
   •   training of participants in the handling and  removal  of hazardous substances,
       including  training  for environmental jobs (including,  environmental  sampling,
       analysis, and remediation techniques).

EPA awarded  $87.3 million to communities for assessments and cleanups of contaminated
land through cooperative agreements.  An additional $9.2 million was distributed by EPA
regional offices for targeted brownfields assessments in communities with the remaining $3.5
million used for federal management and oversight. To learn  more about the Brownfields

                                  Rowland, Maine is a rural community located 35 miles north of
                                  Bangor. The closure of the Old Rowland Tannery in 1971 left
                                  the town without any industry to support local workers. The old
                                  tannery, moreover, contributed to the economic pressures and
                                  blight  that  discouraged  investment.  Along  with economic
                                  degradation,  contamination  at  the  site   posed  significant
                                  environmental and human health risks,  including runoff and
                                  leaching into the Penobscot  and  Piscataquis Rivers. Recovery
                                  Act grants from the Brownfields program, however, has helped
                                  clean up the Rowland Tannery property and  reduced the stigma
                                  that has negatively impacted  property values. Now that the site
                                  is remediated, Rowland has turned it into a destination for river-
                                  related recreation along the Penobscot and Piscataquis Rivers by
                                  developing a walking path and a boat launch for the community.
With  the  assistance of Recovery Act  funds  under the
Brownfields program and matching funds from the Oregon
Business Development Department Coalition Cleanup, a
new  food   bank  is  under  construction  on  a  former
contaminated site  in  Grants Pass, Oregon. The county
received  funding  through  the   Oregon  Community
Development Block Grant for  construction, and with a
recently signed  letter  of  completion following cleanup
work  at the 250 acre former Sunnybrook Hop Farm, the
City of Grants  Pass in Oregon is  moving ahead  quickly
with construction on the new food bank that  will serve
numerous  residents in the county. The food  bank with
provide resources  to  help those  in  need while also
improving the environmental conditions of the community.

                         Leaking Underground Storage Tanks
Across the country, approximately 85,000 releases from underground storage tanks remain to
be cleaned up.  Under the Recovery Act, EPA received $200 million from the Leaking
Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust Fund for assessing and cleaning up releases of
contamination from federally-regulated  underground storage tanks  (USTs).  The  LUST
program helps create jobs and protect the environment and human health through:

   •   emergency response and initial site hazard mitigation;
   •   site investigations and assessments;
   •   petroleum contamination release cleanups;
   •   soil and groundwater monitoring;
   •   enforcement actions and recovery of costs from liable tank owners and operators; and
   •   public or community involvement activities.

EPA uses the money to assess and clean up contaminated LUST  sites, which creates and
retains jobs and provides many economic and environmental benefits. EPA provided $190.7
million to state  and territorial UST programs through cooperative agreements, all of which
were awarded by December 31, 2009. As of June 30, 2012, 45 of the 54 states and territories
that received LUST Recovery Act money completed their work.  EPA's regional UST
programs manage $6.3 million to clean up tank releases in Indian country. The remaining $3
million is used for federal management and oversight. To learn more about EPA's Office of
Underground   Storage   Tanks'   implementation   of   the   Recovery   Act,   visit

                        Program Results as of June 30, 2011

In addition to the  results below, Recovery Act funds have contributed to other assessment
and cleanup activities at a total of 4,037 sites, which did not begin as Recovery Act projects.

                                      Beginning in late 2009, Indiana used Recovery Act funds to
                                      determine   the   extent   of  soil   and   groundwater
                                      contamination,  excavate   contamination,  and  monitor
                                      contamination levels in the groundwater in the town  of
                                      West Lebanon. The site was originally developed in 1967
                                      and used as a retail gasoline station, and in the late  1990s,
                                      three underground storage tanks were removed. During that
                                      excavation, three additional underground storage tanks and
                                      contaminated  soil  were   discovered.  Initial   sampling
                                      indicated petroleum contamination in the groundwater, and
                                      with the help  of newly installed groundwater  monitoring
                                      wells, contamination is decreasing. The  site is now being
                                      utilized by the West Lebanon Volunteer Fire Department as
                                      a parking lot.
The State of Alabama and Federal agencies are collaborating
with local communities to  clean up and reuse brownfield
sites along the Selma to Montgomery National Historic Trail
that commemorates the historic 1965 Voting  Rights March.
Over  the  years  this  54-mile  corridor has  degraded and
exhibits high unemployment, environmental  and  health
issues, and lower educational and economic  achievements.
However,  Recovery Act funds have been used  to assess
leaking underground storage tank sites along the corridor.
Local communities have recommended a variety of reuses
for these old abandoned properties, including  local craft and
gift shops to support trail visitors, restaurants, and vegetable
stands. This effort has provided a boost to the  local economy
and created jobs thanks to the efforts of Federal,  state, and
local governments working together.

                                       Superfund
The overall objectives for using the $600 million provided to Superfund are to initiate and
accelerate cleanup at National Priority List (NPL) sites, maximize job creation and retention,
and provide environmental and  economic benefits. Of the  funds  provided to EPA,  $18
million  was allocated for federal management  and oversight. These objectives are being
achieved  by  starting new cleanup  projects,  accelerating  cleanups  at  projects already
underway, increasing the number of workers and activities at cleanup projects, and returning
affected sites to more productive use.

The Recovery Act funds provide immediate short and longer-term health, environmental, and
economic benefits  at both new  and ongoing  Superfund remedial projects through the
following:

   •  treatment or removal of organic compound contamination;
   •  treatment or removal of heavy metal contamination;
   •  beginning or accelerating work to treat drinking water to meet standards;
   •  provision of alternate residential drinking water supplies; and
   •  mitigation of damage to wildlife habitat and ecosystems and beginning of restoration

The job  sectors benefiting from the Superfund Recovery Act  funds include,  but are not
limited to: cleanup operation and management, laboratory sampling and analysis, hazardous
waste disposal and management, construction and monitoring equipment rental, water and
soil treatment,  and environmental  engineering  and management.   To learn more  about
Superfund implementation of ARRA, visit www.epa.gov/superfund/eparecovery/index.html.

                         Program Results as of June 30, 2012

The Superfund program has allocated funding to 51 sites and  61 projects. Of these projects,
26  of  them  are   on new  sites  across  the  country.  For  more   information,  visit:

                                 In Nebraska, over 80 percent of the Recovery Act funds
                                 have been expended on the lead Superfund site in Omaha.
                                 The  contractor has  completed  soil  excavation  at  all
                                 residential properties (1,300 in total)  contaminated with
                                 lead  to be remediated  during this  phase. The  work has
                                 contributed to continuous reductions in elevated blood-
                                 lead  levels  in  children, removed  the  stigma of lead
                                 contamination   from   these  homes,  and   increased
                                 community awareness of the health hazards from exposure
                                 to lead.   During  construction  periods, the  contractor
                                 employed over 75 local workers and made significant local
                                 purchases, thereby strengthening the local economy.
In Baxter Springs and Treece, Kansas, remediation
work funded by Recovery Act for a Superfund site
has been completed with landscaping and grass
maintenance as the final  step in the reuse of the
site.  Mine waste excavation and disposal resulted
in over 2 million cubic yards and over 133 acres of
mining-impacted land returning  to a useful and
aesthetic state. During construction, over 28 local
workers were employed,  having a significantly
positive impact on the local economy.

                                   Inspector General
The Recovery Act provides the EPA Office of Inspector General (OIG) with $20 million
through December 31, 2012 for oversight and review. The OIG will assess whether EPA uses
the Recovery Act funds in accordance with its requirements and meets the accountability
objectives as defined by OMB. The OIG will utilize the funds to determine whether:

   •   funds are awarded and distributed in a prompt, fair, and reasonable manner;
   •   recipients and uses of funds are transparent to the public, and the public benefits of
       these funds are reported clearly, accurately, and in a timely manner;
   •   funds  are used for  authorized purposes  and  fraud,  waste,  error,  and abuse  are
       mitigated;
   •   projects funded under the Recovery Act avoid unnecessary delays and cost overruns;
   •   program  goals  are achieved,  including  specific program outcomes  and improved
       results on broader economic indicators.

                            Program Results as of June 30, 2012

To ensure accountability the  OIG has  provided outreach and training to numerous groups and
has identified a  number of actions for improvement. Additionally, the OIG identified over
$3.4 million in cost efficiencies/savings as funds to be put to better use.
