This standard pri-marily focuses on the approach for remedial actions performedunder the Comprehensive Environmental Response,Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). Thus, many ofthe

The standard is alsoapplicable to remedial actions performed under state, federaland international cleanup programs, but the standard does notdescribe requirements for each jurisdiction. The requirementsfor the regulatory entity under which the cleanup is perfor

39、 laboratories, datavalidators, data reviewers and users, and other stakeholders,which may include, but are not limited to, owners, buyers,developers, lenders, insurers, government agencies, and com-munity members and groups.4.3 This guide is not intended to supplant applicable regu-lations. Instead
40、this guide may be used to complement andsupport such regulatory requirements.4.4 This guide provides a decision framework based onover-arching features and elements that should be customizedby the user based on site-specific conditions, regulatorycontext, and sediment corrective action objectives. T
41、his guideshould not be used alone as a prescriptive checklist.4.5 This guide provides a systematic, but flexible decisionframework to accommodate variations in approaches by regu-latory agency and by the user based on project objectives, sitecomplexity, unique site features, regulatory requirements,
42、newly developed guidance, newly published scientificresearch, changes in regulatory criteria, advances in scientificknowledge and technical capability, and unforeseen circum-stances.4.6 Implementation of the guide is site-specific. The usermay choose to customize the implementation of the guide forp
43、articular types of sites, especially smaller, less complex sites.4.7 When applying this guide, the user should undertake asystematic project planning and scoping process to collectinformation to assist in making site-specific, user-defineddecisions for a particular project. Planning activities shoul
44、dinclude the following factors: (a) Assemble an experiencedteam of project professionals; (b) Identify the applicableregulatory program(s); (c) Engage stakeholders early and oftenin the planning process; (d) Define, agree on, and documentclearly stated project objectives and intended outcomes;(e) Re
45、cognize that sediment programs are complex, uncertaintyis high, that an appropriate project-specific approach may bedeveloped with the investment of time and effort, and thatcompromise and uncertainty are inherent in the process;(f) Compile existing site data; and (g) Establish a plan fordocumenting
46、 and reporting key decisions and results. Theseproject planning and scoping activities should be carriedforward as the project progresses.4.8 The users of this guide should consider assembling ateam of experienced project professionals with appropriateexpertise to scope, plan and execute a sediment
