The program was created jointly by EPA ORD, EPA OSWER, and the regional offices to expand the technical support available to regional staff.

EPA Post Construction Completion Guidance
The goal of Post Construction Completion activities is to ensure that Superfund response actions provide for the long-term protection of human health and the environment. EPA's Post Construction Completion activities also involve optimizing remedies to increase effectiveness and/or reduce cost without sacrificing long-term protection of human health and the environment.

EPA Smart Growth Implementation Assistance
EPA offers opportunities to apply for free technical assistance that will help communities apply smart growth principles to a real challenge in their community. The Development, Community and Environment Division in U.S. EPA's Office of Policy, Economics and Innovation periodically seeks applications from communities that want to develop in ways that meet environmental and other community goals. A team of multidisciplinary experts will provide technical assistance to communities that are selected. EPA solicits applications from communities that want help with either policy analysis (e.g., reviewing state and local codes, school siting guidelines, transportation policies, etc.) or public participatory processes (e.g., visioning, alternatives analysis, build-out analysis, etc.). Selected communities will receive assistance from a team of experts organized by EPA and other national partners to work with local leaders.

EPA Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program
The SITE Demonstration Program encourages the development and implementation of innovative treatment technologies for hazardous waste site remediation, monitoring, and measurement. The site provides engineering and cost data gathered on innovative technologies so that potential users can assess the technology's applicability to a particular site.

EPA Technical Support Project (TSP)
EPA TSP was established in 1987 by EPA Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER), Office of Research and Development (ORD), and regional waste management offices to provide technical assistance to regional RPMs and OSCs. The project consists of a network of regional forums, specialized technical centers located in ORD laboratories, and OSWER's environmental response team.

EPA's Environmental Technology Verification Program
EPA's ETV Program develops testing protocols and verifies the performance of innovative technologies that have the potential to improve protection of human health and the environment. ETV was created to accelerate the entrance of new technologies into the domestic and international marketplace.

EPA's Superfund Program on Abandoned Mine Lands
