OSTI ID:6446521

The House Science and Technology Committee recommends, with amendments, passage of H.R. 3065, which authorizes a research, development, and demonstration program under the Superfund Act. The report covers the background and need for the legislation, summarizes the testimony received at hearings, gives a section-by-section explanation of the Bill, and reports other findings. The testimony of hearings focused on the need for more information on the management of hazardous wastes and the need for opportunities to demonstrate new technologies. The research program will build upon existing Environmental Protection Agency research capability and expand it by including work at universities and in the private sector, specifically small businesses.
