Scenarios about 'Superfund'
The Superfund program is a federal initiative established by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 to address abandoned hazardous waste sites in the United States. It grants the EPA authority to identify responsible parties for contamination and compel cleanup, or perform remediation using dedicated funds when responsible parties cannot be found. In alternate histories, changes to Superfund legislation could dramatically alter American environmental conditions, industrial development patterns, and public health outcomes.
