Book Description
GAO provided information on the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Superfund Program, focusing on whether EPA reporting of Superfund's estimated funding is reasonable. GAO found that: (1) EPA Superfund cost estimates are not reliable or useful for overseeing costs or making funding decisions; (2) EPA substantially understates Superfund cost estimates and is often over a year late in issuing required cost estimates; (3) Superfund cost estimates often exclude future National Priorities List (NPL) sites and do not reflect realistic costs to complete site cleanup efforts; (4) EPA does not use available forecast management techniques to estimate future costs; (5) Congress has authorized $15.2 billion for Superfund, but EPA has advised Congress that it would need $26.4 billion for hazardous waste cleanup; (6) EPA estimates that an additional 1,000 Superfund clean-up sites by 2000 would require about $11 billion and total Superfund costs are likely greater than EPA reports; and (7) the EPA Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Inspector General do not monitor the reliability of Superfund cost estimates prepared by program managers.
