Definitions
| Emerging contaminant |
| Chemicals and materials that have pathways to enter the environment and present real or perceived unacceptable human health or environmental risks and either do not have regulatory peer-reviewed human health standards or the regulatory standards are evolving due to new science, detection capabilities, or pathways. *Note that emerging contaminants may be site-specific given state-led regulatory standards and site-specific conditions. |
| Long-term Management (LTM) |
| Environmental monitoring, review of site conditions, and/or maintenance of a remedial action to ensure continued protection as designed once a site achieves RC. LTM includes O&M, which are the measures required to maintain the effectiveness of response actions. LTM should not be used until no further environmental restoration response actions are appropriate or anticipated. LTM should not be used to refer to monitoring after Remedy in Place (this includes sites for which the selected response action is natural attenuation). Examples of LTM include landfill cap maintenance, leachate disposal, fence monitoring and repair, management of performance of five-year review execution, and LUC maintenance. |
| Remedial Action (RA) |
| Actions consistent with a permanent remedy taken instead of, or in addition to, a removal action in the event of a release or threatened release of a hazardous substance into the environment, to prevent or minimize the release of hazardous substances so that they do not migrate to cause substantial danger to present or future public health or welfare or the environment. |
| Remedial Action -Construction (RA-C) |
| A DoD term to define the period of time that a response action is being implemented, but is not yet operating as designed. At the end of this phase of work, a remedy is in place. |
| Remedial Action Objectives (RAO) |
| Remedial Action Objectives define the end goal of remedial activities such as the regulatory standard to be achieved, risk management approach implemented, or land use controls utilized. RAO should not be confused with Remedial Action-Operation. |
| Remedial Action -Operation (RA-O) |
| A DoD term to define the period of time that a selected remedy must operate before achieving remedial action objectives. It is the activity or process of implementing a selected remedy following RIP and preceding Response Complete (RC). At the end of this phase of work, the response is complete. The processes and monitoring in this phase of work are primary targets of optimization. |
| Remedy in Place (RIP) |
| Designation that a final remedial action has been constructed and implemented and is operating as planned in the remedial design. An example of a remedy in place is a pump-and-treat system that is installed, operating as designed, and will continue to operate until cleanup levels have been attained. Because operation of the remedy is ongoing, the site cannot be considered RC. For some sites, achieving RIP may not require any active remediation activities but would require USAF approval that the remedy is operating properly (e.g. MNA). |
| Response Complete (RC) |
| A milestone reached when the selected remedy has achieved remedial action objectives specified in the decision document. Signifies that DoD has completed the RIP and the required RA-O have achieved the cleanup objectives. If there is no RA-O phase, then the RA-C end date will also be the RC date. LTM may only occur after RC is achieved. |
| Site Closeout (SC) |
| Site Closeout signifies when the USAF has completed all active management and monitoring at an environmental cleanup site, no additional environmental cleanup funds will be expended at the site and the USAF has obtained regulatory concurrence. For practical purposes, Site Closeout occurs when cleanup goals have been achieved that allow unrestricted use of the property (i.e., no further LTM, including institutional controls, is required) and that all site decommissioning has been completed. Achieving Site Closeout may include, but not be limited to, the dismantling, removal, recycling, reclamation and/or disposal of all remedial activity systems and ancillary equipment above and underground to return the site to its natural state, well abandonment, and site restoration in accordance with Base and regulatory requirements. Note: Regulatory concurrence may include “no further action” (NFA) but does not include variations such as “no further active remediation”, “regulatory closure with restrictions”, “conditional site closure” or functional equivalents. These variations would involve requirements for LTM and would therefore not allow for unrestricted use. |
| Optimized Exit Strategy |
| A logical approach and plan to achieve SC or advance sites as close to SC as practicable while maximizing effectiveness and efficiency and minimizing LCCs. An OES identifies a series of actions, some of which may occur beyond the POP |
| Life-Cycle Cost |
| An estimate of POP and post POP costs based on proposed activities, activity duration, and assumptions from task order award through Contractor’s projected Site Closeout date (or FY41 for sites with indefinite closeout dates). |
| Post-POP Life-Cycle Cost |
| An estimate of post-POP costs based on proposed activities, activity duration, and assumptions from completion of the final performance objective or task order completion (whichever comes first) through Contractor’s projected Site Closeout date (or FY41 for sites with indefinite closeout dates). |
| Sustainability |
| As defined by the UN World Summit in 2005 recognized the key elements of sustainability to include environmental, social, and economic considerations. The USAF defines sustainability, in so far as the ERA program to be the practice of considering all environmental effects of remedy implementation and operation, incorporating options to minimize the environmental footprint of a cleanup. The key elements of green and sustainable remediation include energy use for treatment systems; water use/impacts on water resources; material consumption/waste generation; impacts on land and ecosystem; and air emissions. |
| Draft Documents |
| Internal documents that are submitted for Air Force review and approval. In all respects, draft documents shall be complete; substantively correct and consistent with applicable laws, regulations, Department of Defense/Air Force policies; in proper format; and free of grammatical and typographical errors. In general, draft documents are the initial version of documents that will be reviewed by the Air Force. Draft copy documents shall not be submitted to regulatory agencies for review. |
| Draft Final Document |
| Document incorporating Air Force comments and submitted for regulatory agency review may also be required prior to Final document preparation. Note that some documents may initially be submitted to the regulatory agencies as Final with any comments being incorporated into subsequent documents as appropriate (e.g., system status reports, monitoring reports, “data dumps”). |
| Final Document |
| The version of the document that has received Air Force and regulatory, where applicable, concurrence. At least one electronic copy of the final document consisting of original productivity software files and all quality control data, drawings, and GIS-type information, shall be provided to the Air Force. Electronic copies should be compatible with the current Air Force Microsoft™ Office Suite and GIS software versions. All figures shall be delivered in original application files GIS format as described in Section 4.7. In addition, an electronic version of the final document shall be submitted in a single portable document file (.pdf) format approved by the Air Force complete with electronic bookmarks. |
