The final report of The Committee on Remedial Action Priorities for Hazardous Waste Sites, which was charged in 1991 with examining the principle ranking methods being used or considered by federal and state agencies to rank hazardous-waste sites for remedial priority. Among the issues addressed are the technical and policy purposes of the ranking methods, their effectiveness in achieving those purposes, the embodied assumptions, the uncertainties, and the flexibility of the methods for considering new information and for analyzing and comparing the cost effectiveness of remediation. An interim report covering only the Department of Defense measures was released in 1992. No index. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
