5 What is SEFA? SEFA is…  a set of Excel workbooks developed by EPA  designed for conducting environmental footprint analyses at clean-up sites  compatible with EPA’s Footprinting Methodology  set up in “blank slate” template format  structured for inputting data, running calculations, and organizing outputs SEFA and EPA’s Footprinting Methodology are publicly available and posted at: www.cluin.org/greenremediation/methodology/index.cfm 5 Spreadsheets for Environmental Footprint Analysis

6 After Identify Areas for Reduction Achieve Footprint Reductions Apply BMPs SEFA in the Context of Greener Clean-ups original clean-up ––––––––––––––––––––––––––> greener clean-up SEFA Run Footprint Analysis Before 6

7 SEFA in the Context of EPA’s Footprinting Methodology SEFASEFA and Interpret 7

8 Inside SEFA The workbooks exchange data and process the results Three Excel Workbooks Main Workbook  User enters basic site information  User enters data for materials, waste, and water Workbook provides summary of results Energy Workbook  User sets up analytic structure  User enters data for on-site and off-site activities Workbook compiles the activities Calculations Workbook  No data entry by user in this workbook Workbook makes the footprint calculations 8 1 st 2 nd 3 rd

9 Flexible any site and any remedy any level of detail any set of comparisons Requires Experience to Run should be run by experienced staff steep learning curve easy to run once you know how SEFA 9 Spreadsheets for Environmental Footprint Analysis the workbooks do not have a “user-friendly” interface

10 Case Study for the SEFA Workshop  keeping the case study simple  will not show all points of data entry  participants can examine the tutorial worksheets at length after the workshop Remediation at “Back Forty” Site conduct site investigation excavate contaminated soil transport soil to off-site landfill backfill excavated areas conduct groundwater monitoring 1 2 3 4 5 10 Simple Dig&Haul Remedy
