What kind of site should be nominated?
We are looking for sites that meet the following criteria: • where primarily point-source pollutants are causing substantial human health problems; • that lack an existing and capable clean-up effort; • located in communities that demonstrate sufficient capacity and interest to make remediation feasible; • and where there can be reasonable expectations of success.
