Reauthorization of the Superfund law continues to be a major source
of controversy among political leaders and environmental activists.
Some seek a major overhaul of the statute, arguing that
considerable cleanup still needs to be done. Others oppose major
changes, asserting that cleanup is almost complete. One of the most
contentious issues in the debate is whether the taxes that once
stocked the Superfund Trust Fund need to be reinstated. The answer
depends in large part on how much money EPA will need to implement
the Superfund program. To inform this discussion, the U.S. Congress
asked Resources for the Future (RFF) to estimate the program's
future costs. The results of this research are included in
Superfund's Future, a book that will become an essential reference
for all participants in the debate about one of the nation's most
controversial environmental programs.
