(b) Recruiting Centers.
(c) Cemeteries.
(d) Properties currently controlled by the DOD components (Army, Navy, Air Force,
Marines, National Guard [not state controlled]; Reserves, Defense Logistics Agency, and
Defense Nuclear Agency) which resulted in hazards.
6-3. Project Eligibility.
a. Following a determination of property eligibility, the property is evaluated for
confirmation of contamination in order to establish project eligibility.
b. A project is defined as an activity undertaken to clean up a hazardous condition on a
property. A potentially eligible project is one where a DOD component has or shares potential
responsibility for the hazardous condition, after applying applicable policy considerations.
Figure 6-1 also illustrates the process for determining project eligibility.
(1) Eligible Projects. An eligible project is one in which there is confirmed contamination
on the property requiring a response action or where a DOD component has or shares potential
responsibility. At an eligible property, cleanup of foreign ordnance may be proposed as an
eligible project. Following the determination of project eligibility, a positive INPR is prepared.
(2) Ineligible Projects. Following the determination of project ineligibility, a NDAI INPR
is prepared. The discovery of new information can change the status of a project from ineligible
to eligible. Ineligible projects are described in the following paragraphs.
(a) Projects identified on property where the current owner refuses ROE. The appropriate
authorities (e.g., USEPA, state environmental agency, Office of Public Safety, etc.) should be
notified if a hazard exists. Such a project may become eligible if the property owner provides
ROE at a later date.
(b) Projects to remedy hazards which resulted from civil works activities rather than
military activities.
(c) Projects initiated or completed by a past or current owner. Property owners cannot be
reimbursed under DERP-FUDS for any response activities.
(d) Projects at FUDS properties that were transferred or where the lease terminated after the
passage of SARA (17 October 86). In these cases, any environmental cleanup project must be
undertaken by the DOD component who disposed of the property. The component will conduct
the cleanup under it's active-site Installation Restoration Program and the project determined as
