Guidance
This document provides guidance to cleanup project managers so that they 1) understand the risks to cleanup sites associated with a changing climate and 2) increase the resilience of cleanup sites at each phase of the cleanup process. By putting adaptation measures into place during the early stages of a cleanup, the number of feasible cleanup options may increase; their integrity can be maximized; and, in some situations, cost can be reduced.
