REGIONAL SEEDSThese initial investments give communities and EPA Regions the tools they need to tackle reuse obstacles and move forward.
PARTNERSHIPSSRI’s partners – the Academy of Model Aeronautics, the U.S. Soccer Foundation, Pollinator Partnership (P2), The Trust for Public Land and the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy – share their expertise with communities.
READY FOR REUSE (RfR) DETERMINATIONS AND COMFORT LETTERS RfR Determinations are environmental status reports that clearly state how sites can be used safely. Comfort letters clarify liability issues for prospective purchasers and site owners.
REUSE PLANNINGThis innovative process evaluates reuse options and makes sure remedies and future uses are compatible.
SRI WEBSITEOne-stop access to reuse resources – case studies, videos, lessons learned – helps communities pursue opportunities. Please visit http://www.epa.gov/superfund-redevelopment-initiative.
Many groups – affected communities, states, tribal and local governments, responsible parties, site owners, nonprofits, businesses, lenders, other federal agencies – have important roles at Superfund sites.
Considering reuse makes sense for a range of reasons. It can:
• Build partnerships and strengthen working relationships.• Engage communities, address local concerns and build
capacities.• Protect remedies.• Deter vandalism and trespassing.• Foster long-term stewardship.• Identify opportunities for faster and lower-cost cleanups.• Inform effective land use controls.• Help leverage cleanup dollars.• Provide environmental and smart growth benefits.
These benefits matter. Nationally, one in four Americans live within four miles of a site on the Superfund program’s National Priorities List.
