The USEPA issued the Final Guide to Planning, Implementing, Maintaining and Enforcing (PIME) Institutional Controls at Contaminated Sites. This is the second of two guidance documents prepared by the USEPA to inform long-term stewardship of contaminated sites. In 2000, the first guide was drafted with a focus toward the selection of institutional controls (ICs). In 2000 ICs were an emerging remedy component with relatively immature concepts toward implementation. Today, based upon Terradex’s estimates, there at least 20,000 ICs in-place nationwide as part of cleanup remedies. With greater experience, the focus of this recent PIME guidance has appropriately shifted toward the implementation, maintenance and enforcement of ICs across the IC’s lifecycle.
