Go to: Acronyms - You may as well learn the acronyms now as they are pandemic.
Where documents are enclosed in () or [], they are sometimes combined.
There may be multiple drafts (D0, D1, D2, D3) on some documents.
Notes:
{1} A time critical progression implies an accepted, expedited action
is required. Other steps beyond the required steps shown may be included.
{2} CERCLA requires public participation at this point and following.
DOE has instituted earlier public involvement.
{3} There is no legal requirement for a 5 year review in the time
critical progression but DOE has been performing them.
{4} An EE/CA requires a short FS but no baseline RA.
