Summary
The recommendations from the EPA Ground Water Task Force is a result of a three-year effort that was established under the OSWER's One Cleanup Program Initiative. The goal of the GWTF was to identify, prioritize, and make recommendations for ground water issues that will benefit multiple cleanup and protection programs. The report focuses on two topics the GWTF selected for evaluation: cleanup goals appropriate for dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) source zones; and, ground water use, value and vulnerability (UVV) as factors in setting cleanup goals. It includes background information, options and GWTF recommendations to address identified issues. The cover letter of the report includes the recommendations the EPA Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) is currently pursuing.
