ASTM E2893-13<\/h3>\n

Historical Standard: Standard Guide for Greener Cleanups<\/h4>\n
\n

ASTM E2893<\/h4>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

1.1 Cleaning up sites<\/span> improves environmental and public health conditions and as such can be viewed as \u201cgreen.\u201d However, cleanup<\/span> activities use energy, water, and natural resources. The process of cleanup<\/span> therefore creates its own environmental footprint<\/span>. This guide<\/span> describes a process for evaluating and implementing activities to reduce the environmental footprint<\/span> of a cleanup<\/span> project in the United States while working within the applicable regulatory framework and satisfying all applicable legal requirements.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.2 This guide<\/span> may also be used as a framework for sites<\/span> that are not located in the United States; however, the specific legal references are not applicable.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.3 This guide<\/span> describes a process for identifying, evaluating, and incorporating best management practices<\/span> (BMPs<\/span>) and, when deemed appropriate, for integrating a quantitative evaluation<\/span> into a cleanup<\/span> to reduce its environmental footprint<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.4 This guide<\/span> is designed to be implemented in conjunction with any cleanup<\/span> process and should be used with other technical tools, guidance, policy, laws, and regulations to integrate greener cleanup<\/span> practices, processes, and technologies into cleanup<\/span> projects.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.5 This guide<\/span> provides a process for evaluating and implementing activities to reduce the environmental footprint<\/span> of a cleanup<\/span> and is not designed to instruct users<\/span> on how to clean up contaminated sites<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.6 ASTM also has a guide<\/span> on Integrating Sustainable Objectives into Cleanups<\/span> (E2876). That guide<\/span> provides a broad framework for integrating elements of environmental, economic, and social aspects into cleanups<\/span>. This guide<\/span> may provide assistance with implementing E2876 and other sustainable remediation guidance, such as Holland, et al. (2011)(1)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.7 This guide<\/span> specifically applies to the cleanup<\/span>, not the redevelopment, of a site<\/span>. However, the reasonably anticipated use of a site<\/span>, if known, may influence the cleanup<\/span> goals and scope.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.8 This guide<\/span> should not be used as a justification to avoid, minimize, or delay implementation of specific cleanup<\/span> activities. Nor should this guide<\/span> be used as a justification for selecting cleanup<\/span> activities that compromise stakeholder<\/span> interests or goals for the site<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.9 This guide<\/span> does not supersede federal, state, or local regulations relating to protection of human health and the environment. No action taken in connection with implementing this guide<\/span> should generate unacceptable risks to human health or the environment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.10 This guide<\/span> may be integrated into complementary standards, site<\/span>-specific regulatory documents, guidelines, or contractual agreements relating to sustainable or greener cleanups<\/span>.<\/p>\n

\n

1.10.1 If the cleanup<\/span> is governed by a regulatory program, the user<\/span> should discuss with the regulator responsible for site<\/span> oversight how this guide<\/span> could be incorporated into the cleanup<\/span> and whether the regulator deems it appropriate for the user<\/span> to report the process and results to the regulatory program.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.10.2 The contractual relationship or legal obligations existing between and among the parties associated with a site<\/span> or site cleanup<\/span> are beyond the scope of this guide<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.11 This guide<\/span> is composed of the following sections: Referenced Documents (Section 2<\/span>); Terminology (Section 3<\/span>); Significance and Use (Section 4<\/span>); Planning and Scoping (Section 5<\/span>); BMP Process<\/span> (Section 6<\/span>); Quantitative Evaluation<\/span> (Section 7<\/span>); Documentation and Reporting (Section 8<\/span>); and Keywords (Section 9<\/span>).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.12 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
