Common use of Purpose and Background Clause in Contracts

Purpose and Background. The purpose of this attachment to the Rocky Flats Legacy Management Agreement (RFLMA) is to specify the legacy management requirements that will ensure the response action selected and approved in the final Corrective Action Decision and Record of Decision (CAD/ROD) for the Central Operable Unit (OU) remains protective of human health and the environment. The remedy specified in the final CAD/ROD is supported by a Comprehensive Risk Assessment, which is based on a specific land use. The remedy, therefore, relies on certain physical and institutional controls, which must be maintained to ensure long-term protectiveness. The remedy also includes engineered features – landfills and water treatment systems – which must be maintained to remain protective. Reduced levels of residual soil contamination remain at the site and may continue to affect surface water. Contaminated groundwater also exists at the site and may impact surface water quality. Continued routine monitoring for groundwater and surface water is therefore required. Air, soil, and ecological receptors have been extensively monitored for many years and routine monitoring is no longer required. Legacy management requirements described in this attachment are intended to address the requirements of the following statutes: • Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); • Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) including applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs); and • Colorado Hazardous Waste Act (CHWA). Modifications to this attachment will occur in accordance with the provisions of Part 10 of RFLMA.
