OBTAINING ORD TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR SUPERFUND, RCRA,
AND BROWNFIELDS SITE ISSUES

ORD has five technical support centers (TSCs) that help to integrate science and technology
into hazardous waste clean-up activities. These centers, located around the country, offer
scientific expertise and services to EPA's program and regional offices on site characterization,
modeling, monitoring, assessment, and remediation.

Superfund and Technology Liaisons (STLs) are ORD scientists and engineers who are important
links between regional staff and the TSCs. STLs in each region work with remedial project
managers, corrective action staff, and on-scene coordinators to identify available ORD
resources and specialized expertise to assist with specific clean-up sites, tasks or projects.

ORD'S FIVE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTERS:

• Ecological Risk Assessment Support Center
