2004 IC Strategy " STRATEGY TO ENSURE INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL IMPLEMENTATION AT SUPERFUND SITES " OSWER No. 9355.0-106 September 2004 EPA’s strategy (Strategy) for ensuring that institutional controls (ICs) are successfully implemented at Superfund sites, with an emphasis on evaluating ICs at sites where all construction of all remedies is complete (construction complete sites Management Advisory Group for Institutional Controls (MAGIC) IC Program and Legal Coordinator in Each Region National Workgroup with members from HQ, Regions, DOJ and OGC

National Workgroup Topics National IC Tracking ICs on Tribal lands “Uncooperative” landowners Use of ICs at vapor intrusion sites Model docs – Consent Decree & SOW (PRP-lead) Coordination with local governments

National Workgroup Topics Meets Monthly, as needed. Sharing Information. Addressing novel issues. Discussing Site-Specific IC questions. Developing Sub-workgroups as needed to address topics.

Institutional Controls in Indian Country Cecilia De Robertis Office of Site Remediation Enforcement (OSRE)

Land Ownership Category Description Holder of Title Trust Land Legal title held in trust by United States for the benefit of a tribe or tribal member. United States Restricted Fee Land Legal title held by tribe or tribal member subject to restrictions on alienation Tribe or Tribal member Fee Simple Legal title held without restriction Tribe, Tribal member, or non-tribal member

Which IC Works Best? Proprietary Controls Advantages Title review required for mortgages, mining/timber leases Tied to the land If Trust or restricted land, enforceable against BIA Disadvantages Land is rarely transferred BIA land offices far and few between, so rarely searched BIA land offices in disarray Hard for BIA to control other people’s activities

Which IC Works Best? Governmental Controls Advantages Utilizes a process that is already in place, often with enforcement Empowers tribes as stewards More likely to be reviewed than proprietary controls Disadvantages Tribe may modify or change the governmental control EPA does not have enforcement authority Resource intensive

Which IC Works Best? Informational Devices Advantages Very flexible and adaptable to cultural needs Easy to layer Disadvantages Not enforceable Tribes may be reluctant to give information or limit sacred activities Difficult to monitor Cannot force culture

Which IC Works Best? Enforcement and Permit Tools Advantages May prohibit specific activities on a particular parcel MoA may be required due to sovereignty Disadvantages Contractually based and do not “run with the land” Unilateral order may lead to political issues

IC GUIDANCE AND REFERENCE DOCUMENTS PIME ICIAP Supplement to the Five-Year Review http://www.epa.gov/superfund/policy/ic/guide/index.htm

Planning Implementation Monitoring and Enforcement (PIME) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 17 17

PIME “Institutional Controls: A Guide to Planning, Implementing, Maintaining, and Enforcing Institutional Controls at Contaminated Sites,” OSWER 9355.0-89, EPA-540-R-09-001, November 2011, Interim Final.

PIME PIME integrates concepts from other disciplines such as real law, land estate and, land use planning and community engagement Provides roles and responsibilities for IC life cycle

PIME Describes roles of states, tribes, local governments and communities in IC selection and maintenance Supports EPA’s “enforcement first” policy for ICs Recommends early coordination with stakeholders

Significant Policy Statements in PIME IC “trigger”: UU/UE as one factor Documentation of use restrictions & ICs in decision documents Community involvement Capacity of IC stakeholders, particularly local governments

Evaluating Institutional Controls during the 5-Year Review Evaluation 11/16/2018 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 22

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluations "Recommended Evaluation of Institutional Controls: Supplement to the "Comprehensive Five-Year Review Guidance", OSWER Directive 9355.7-18, September 2011 [PDF 2.2MB / 28pp.]

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluation This guidance supplements OSWER's 2001 Comprehensive Five-Year Review Guidance and provides recommendations for conducting five-year reviews for the IC component of remedies in a manner similar to the review of engineering or other remedy components

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluation Purpose of the review is to evaluate the implementation and performance of a remedy to determine if the remedy is or will be protective of human health and the environment Identify issue and recommend the need for additional evaluation and/or follow-up actions included as highlighted issues and recommendations.

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluations Key Questions Clarity of Use Restrictions and Exposure Pathways Accuracy of Property Information and Mapping Adequacy of Long-Term Stewardship

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluations Document review, Interviews and Inspections Supplemental evaluations may be necessary ICs are considered along with other remedy components. Make protectiveness determination- both short-term and long-term Role of PRPs

ICs in a 5-Year Review Evaluation QUESTION A: Is remedy functioning as intended by Decision Document? Do ICs cover the use restrictions specified by ROD? Are ICs in place? Are exposures occurring?

ICs in a 5-Year Review Evaluation QUESTION B: Are exposure assumptions, toxicity data, cleanup levels, and RAOs still valid? Any changes to land use, zoning? Any changes to ground/surface water use? Any new exposure pathways?

IC’s in 5-Year Review Question C: Has any other information come to light that could call into question the remedy protectiveness? State or local law change? Any known breaches? Contamination found is a new area or has moved?

ICs in a 5-Year Review Evaluation POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATIONS: Need to select and implement an IC. Need an additional IC layer. Need to review reliability of IC. Need communication strategy. Need Long-Term Stewardship Plan. Explore use of state’s One-Call System for ICs.

ICs in 5-Year Review Evaluations PROTECTIVENESS DETERMINATION: ICs are considered along with other remedy components. Examples of determinations are found in the guidance.

Institutional Controls: EPA Collaboration with Local and State Governments Importance of Effective Governmental Institutional Controls

Examples of EPA’s IC Collaboration Across Jurisdictions at Superfund Sites Region 4 MOA with South Florida Water Management District. MOU Between State and City with Region 7 Oversight in Excelsior Springs, MO. City of Aspen ordinance at the Smuggler Mountain Site in Region 8. Groundwater Control Area / Ordinances at Former Weldon Springs Site in Region 7 Bunker Hill Local IC Program: Panhandle Health District (and four small cities) in Idaho, Region 10 ; Jasper and Newton County Soil IC Program in Region 7 and Pending Soil ICs in Madison County In Region 5 (other large-scale contamination sites have similar programs). And many other formal and informal “partnerships” with local governments

Resources Resources are also available to provide technical assistance to site teams and communities to understand and implement ICs
