Superfund site. ------- EPA's Superfund program is a cornerstone of the work that EPA performs for communities across the country. Helping people participate in the Superfund cleanup process and supporting community efforts to safely redevelop sites are vital parts of the program's mission to protect public health and the environment. Superfund Redevelopment is a powerful way to engage communities, help protect remedies, foster long-term stewardship, identify faster and lower-cost cleanups, inform land use controls, provide environmental benefits, and enable economic opportunities. EPA's Superfund Redevelopment Initiative (SRI) helps make Superfund Redevelopment happen. Since 1999, SRI has provided guidance, best practices, lessons learned and other tools to tackle reuse barriers and facilitate redevelopment opportunities at Superfund sites. Two major themes have emerged from this work: • Sharing reuse success stories spurs new Superfund Redevelopment projects at sites across the country. • While EPA provides tools and resources to support Superfund Redevelopment, communities and private-sector partners make it happen. To recognize these innovative efforts and inspire new Superfund Redevelopment projects, all 10 EPA Regions have developed regional reuse award programs. EPA Headquarters also developed the State Excellence in Supporting Reuse Award. It recognizes state agency partners whose work has led to lasting benefits that enhance community quality of life. Together, these award programs: • Foster stronger relationships, mutual respect and transparency among communities, responsible parties, developers, site owners and tenants, tribes, and state and local governments. • Focus positive attention on progress made and milestones achieved by the Superfund program. • Directly support Superfund Task Force recommendations to promote redevelopment and community revitalization, encourage private investment, and engage partners and stakeholders. This document discusses these reuse award programs in greater detail, helping EPA staff and Superfund site teams explore ways to celebrate Superfund Redevelopment achievements and success stories. It serves as a valuable guide for the future - with EPA dedicated to addressing risks and accelerating progress at all Superfund sites. Jim Woolford, Director EPA Office of Site Remediation and Technology Innovation ------- INTRODUCTION EPA nurtures relationships and collaborations with our state, tribal and local community partners. These partnerships are a cornerstone of our work, and sustaining and strengthening them is an Agency-wide priority. Good government requires that EPA work in concert with our partners to improve coordination, promote innovation and maximize efficiencies to ensure our continued success. This summary provides an overview of several award programs EPA has established to recognize state, tribal and local community partners who have worked collaboratively with EPA and gone the extra mile to support the redevelopment of Superfund sites in ways that are compatible with cleanups and are beneficial to communities. These awards create good will and reinforce collaboration with site stakeholders, including potentially responsible parties, site owners and operators, local governments, and communities. In 2008, EPA Region 4 led the charge in developing a Regional Excellence in Site Reuse Award program. Today, each of the 10 EPA Regions has its own award program to recognize partners who have played critical roles returning sites to beneficial use. In 2014, EPA developed the State Excellence in Supporting Reuse Award to recognize state partners whose work has led to lasting benefits that enhance community quality of life while ensuring the long-term protectiveness of site remedies and stewardship of the environment. SRI supports the ongoing recognition of communities, local governments, developers and other site stakeholders who have gone above and beyond to facilitate redevelopment. To nominate a site or partner for an award, please contact the regional SRI Coordinator listed in the contact section at the back of this guide. PAGE 4 SRI AWARD GUIDE 2018 ------- STATE EXCELLENCE IN SUPPORTING REUSE AWARD Under our environmental laws, EPA and the states share responsibility for protecting public health and safeguarding the environment. These relationships are a key part of the nation's environmental protection system and vital to fulfilling the mission of the Superfund program. From ensuring implementation and enforcement of necessary institutional controls to working with developers to explore alternative energy options and aligning redevelopment designs with safe remedies, state programs provide tremendous on-the- ground support to facilitate protective remedies and beneficial reuse. Candidates for this award are nominated to the regional Superfund Redevelopment Coordinators (listed in the back of this summary). Nominations are typically accepted through June each year, with awards presented at the annual meeting of the Association of State and Territorial Solid Waste Management Officials (ASTSWMO) in October. Award Evaluation Criteria: 1. Encourage and support staff to participate in reuse-related activities designed to inform cleanup decisions at sites and strategize about reuse opportunities, including but not limited to: reuse plans, reuse assessments and facilitated meetings. 2. Collaborate with EPA to ensure current and future uses of sites are protective, including the implementation of institutional controls. 3. Think strategically about funding approaches to help local governments, property owners, developers and other stakeholders return blighted properties to beneficial use. 4. Provide strong support and oversight to local governments, property owners, developers and other stakeholders. 5. Develop a tool or approach to support the reuse of sites in their state. 6. Help a local government, property owner, developer or other stakeholder move a reuse plan into reality, which may include, but not be limited to: identifying or coordinating partners, addressing state liability concerns in a way that allows a property to move forward, providing funding to implement reuse activities, or ensuring proper permits are issued as appropriate. 7. Share efforts to support site reuse with other states to encourage the reuse of blighted property. 8. Ensure all appropriate institutional controls are in place. 2018 SRI AWARD GUIDE PAGE 5 ------- EXCELLENCE IN SITE REUSE AWARD Region 1 has facilitated the successful reuse/redevelopment of Superfund sites across New England.
