Abstract

The report section contains a summary of the University of Montana's survey results in a memo submitted to the EQC by Robin Saha. The graduate students conducted research requested to support the investigation regarding House Joint Resolution 34 on challenges that occur at Superfund sites under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), the state Comprehensive Environmental Cleanup and Responsibility Act (CECRA), and the Voluntary Cleanup and Redevelopment Act (VCRA). Students completed research for the six sites: Bozeman Solvent; Brewery Flats (Lewistown); Burlington Northern (Livingston); Lockwood Solvent; S&W Sawmill (Darby); and Upper Tenmile Creek (Rimini). The memo includes possible approaches to improve the state Superfund process.
