    • Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act

    Metadata Updated: March 15, 2024

    This data represents geographic terms used within the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). CERCLA, commonly known as Superfund, provides a federal "superfund" to clean up uncontrolled or abandoned hazardous waste sites as well as accidents, spills, and other emergency releases of pollutants and contaminants into the environment. The CERCLA gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) power to seek out those parties responsible for any release of pollutants and contaminants, and assure their cooperation in the cleanup. When investigating geo-regulatory boundaries near the boundary edges, users should consult the most up-to-date applicable jurisdictional boundaries from all respective authoritative sources. Source: https://www.epw.senate.gov/cercla.pdf Date enacted: December 11, 1980 Codification: 42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601 et seq. Authority: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
