Superfund Operable Unit 3 Draft Explanation of Significant Differences Open for Comment

The EPA has released a Draft Explanation of Significant Differences for Operable Unit 3 at a Superfund site and opened a public comment period. An ESD is issued when EPA determines that significant differences exist between the current cleanup approach and the originally selected remedy, without fundamentally changing the overall cleanup strategy.\n\nAffected parties including nearby property owners, local governments, environmental groups, and potentially responsible parties should review the proposed modifications and submit relevant comments through the Regulations.gov docket before the comment period closes.
