| Abstract |
Substances released from sites subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act have the potential to cause adverse effects to human health and the environment. Although there are numerous examples of adverse ecological impacts being caused by releases of hazardous substances and wastes, programs have focused primarily on identification, analysis, and mitigation of potential adverse effects to human health. As a consequence of the program emphasis, relatively little information is available concerning the overall extent of ecological impacts at sites. EPA/OPA initiated a study of the nature and extent of ecological impacts at CERCLA and RCRA sites re. the methods that have been or could be used to evaluate ecological impacts at these sites, and past ecological risk management decisions and issues at OSWER waste sites. |
