The RA report should be straightforward and easily understood, using consistent
CERCLA terminology where applicable. The report length should generally not exceed twenty
pages, excluding appendices, relying on brief descriptions for each report component. Tables
and figures that support the report may be inserted within the text, at the end of each section, or
collectively at the end of the report. An example RA report abstract is shown in Exhibit 4-1.
Examples for other report components are provided in the following chapter sections that
describe each component.
