| Synopsis: | Although this document is not attributable to any one reform, it presents EPA's recommendations for enhancing the roles of States and Federally-recognized Tribes in implementing the Superfund program. Through this document, EPA proposes an integrated process for implementing the recommendations to enhance State and Tribal roles, and suggests ways the process could begin under a national pilot program.
This document is for State, Tribal, and EPA Regional audiences, and it identifies steps that EPA could take to build stronger partnerships with States and Tribes. As this plan and its recommendations will apply to all sites within the Superfund program, including Federal facilities, it will be of interest to other parties as well. |
