This document updates and replaces the “Superfund Removal Procedures Action Memorandum Guidance,” Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) Directive 9360.3-01, dated December 1990, as amended by OSWER Directive 9360.0-42, Amendment to the Action Memorandum Guidance and Removal Cost Management System to Address Calculation of Removal Action Project Ceilings” dated November 5, 2001. This update supersedes the previous document and brings the guidance up-to-date.
