EPA seeks preproposals for emerging technology program
This portion of the Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program seeks to foster the further development of technologies that have successfully been tested at bench-scale and are now ready for pilot-scale testing prior to field or full-scale demonstration. The goal of the Emerging Technology Program is to ensure that a steady stream of permanent, cost-effective technologies will be ready for demonstration in the field, thereby increasing the number of viable alternatives available for use in Superfund site removal and remedial actions. The 1989 solicitation will emphasize technologies that can handle complex mixtures of hazardous organic and inorganic contaminants in sludges and soils by either in situ or on surface processes that separate, remove, destroy, detoxify, or stabilize the contaminates or provide for improved solids handling and pretreatment. Preproposals submitted in response to the RFP will be thoroughly reviewed and evaluated, andsuccessful prepropsers will be invited to submit competitive Cooperative Agreement Applications for funding consideration. EPA will cost-share in each of six to ten a maximum amount of $300,000 ($150,000 per year for two years).
