Well, let's think about this. It appears that the idea of "polluter 
pays" may have some merit. In private industry, if XYZ Company is found 
to be a PRP, CERCLA deems that EPA will oversee the cleanup, but XYZ 
must pay to clean it up, plus any fines, etc. Is that what would work 
for DoD? Have DoD pay for it but give control over to EPA? It would 
certainly eliminate the conflict of interest, would it not?
