The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) established the Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program in 1986, following passage of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA). The Program's progress and accomplishments for Fiscal Year 1990 are presented in four sections in this Fourth Report to Congress. Section 1 presents an overview of the SITE Program including the statutory authority and history of the program and the four program components and goals. Section 2 discusses the use of innovative alternative technologies for hazardous waste site remediation and the impact the SITE Program is having on their increased use. Section 3 presents the SITE Program's progress and accomplishments over the past year and specific goals for the coming year. Section 4 proposes various program changes and recommends statutory changes that can enhance SITE's ability to meet its overall objectives.
