As used by this guide, "environmental restoration" refers to the Superfund programs operated under the authority of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980 and the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986. In many cases there is not a straightforward relationship between the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Superfund and Department of Defense (DoD) terms. Users of this document should recognize that in
most cases, these requirements may not be consistent with other programs. The environmental project team should discuss, plan,
and tailor their site documentation efforts to facilitate the environmental requirements at their site.
