In response, many states have adopted voluntary corrective actionor brownfields programs that utilize risk-based corrective action principles. One element of theseprograms m

For example, an owner/operator who volunteers to remediate a site to meet an industrialor commercial use standard may do so in exchange for a restrictive covenant that limits the use of thesite
5、 to industrial or commercial purposes only. Activity and use limitations should be considered anintegral part of the remedial action selection process. The user may determine, based uponpost-remedial action land use, or based upon the deficiencies in available activity and use limitations,that an ac
6、tivity and use limitation is not feasible for the site. The most effective use of activity and uselimitations as part of a federal, state, tribal or local remediation program requires careful considerationof many factors, including effectiveness, amenability to integration with property redevelopmen
7、tplans, implementability, technical practicability, cost prohibitiveness, long-term reliability, acceptabil-ity to stakeholders, and cost effectiveness. While this guidance is most likely to be applied whererisk-based corrective actions are conducted, use of activity and use limitations is not restr

Both institutional and engineering controls may be employed as elements ofa remedial action that is based on concentration level, background, or other non-risk-basedapproaches.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers information for incorporating activity and use limitations th

Activity anduse limitations should be considered early in the site assessment and remedial action selection process, and should be consider

In the event that an appropriate activity and use limitation cannot be found, the usermay need to revisit the initial remedial action selection decision.1.2 This guide does not mandate any one particular type of activity and use limitation but merely
11、serves to help users identify,implement and maintain the types of activity and use limitations that may be appropriate in programs using a risk-baseddecision-making approach.1.3 This guide identifies screening and balancing criteria that should be applied in determining whether any particular activi
12、tyand use limitation may be appropriate. This guide identifies the need to develop long-term monitoring and stewardship plans toensure the long-term reliability and enforceability of activity and use limitations. This guide explains the purpose of activity anduse limitations in the remedial action p
