[Lenny Siegel <lsiegel@cpeo.org>]

On August 1, 2011 U.S. EPA's  two Federal facilities office issued a  
policy memorandum: "Program Priorities for Federal Facility Five-Year  
Review."

According to EPA's web site: "The policy memorandum describes  
management controls that will be implemented to ensure that the  
recommendations in the Five-Year Review reports are tracked,  
monitored and implemented; provides guidance to Remedial Project  
Managers to ensure that the reviews are completed on time; outlines  
how EPA makes an independent decision on protectiveness; and confirms  
that Five-Year Reviews are generally enforceable under Federal  
Facility Agreements."
