The Environmental Protection Agency Region 4 awarded a $180,986 Project Grant to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality under the Superfund State, Political Subdivision, and Indian Tribe Site-Specific Cooperative Agreements program (CFDA 66.802). The two-year award will support activities related to the review of remedial investigation and feasibility studies, proposed plans, and records of decision at Superfund sites in Mississippi where EPA is the lead agency for remedial actions. It will also fund the review of information, attendance at site-related meetings, and participation in five-year reviews. Deliverables will include reports for pre-remedial activities. The outcome of this agreement is to allow the state to provide technical and management assistance to EPA in overseeing cleanup and monitoring of contaminated sites. Direct beneficiaries are Mississippi residents who will benefit from the cooperative cleanup efforts. The award period is from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2023.
