General Information
Event Name: Federal Facility RPM
Hosted By: U.S. EPA
Office of Superfund and Emergency Management
Event Description:

Federal Facility RPM is geared toward EPA Federal Facility (FF) Remedial Project Managers (RPMs) to facilitate an understanding of the unique aspects of the FF RPM role. The course highlights how FF RPM responsibilities and authorities differ from those of a private or Fund-financed Superfund EPA RPM. Participants explore the history and complexity of legacy Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Energy (DOE) sites, gain exposure to the institutional knowledge of experienced FF RPMs, and review statutory and regulatory authorities, executive orders, and policies important to Federal Facilities.

Course Objectives:

  • Discuss and examine best practices for managing the unique circumstances at Federal Facility National Priority List (NPL) sites.
  • Identify the programmatic differences between Federal Facility and private and Fund-financed Superfund sites.
  • Discuss the Federal Facility Agreement (FFA), including negotiating and implementing its provisions.
  • Evaluate the unique technical and management issues presented by Federal Facilities.
  • Discuss current issues associated with emerging contaminants that may be present at Federal Facilities.
  • Obtain valuable materials and references for managing a Federal Facility NPL site.

The Federal Facility RPM course is tailored for EPA FF RPMs across all experience levels. However, those with one to two years of experience who have completed the Fundamentals of Superfund and Remedial Process Training courses may find it particularly beneficial. Additionally, this course may be valuable to other EPA RPMs, DOD/DOE RPMs, EPA Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) personnel, state personnel, and tribal RPMs and managers involved in managing Federal Facilities. 

This course is offered free of charge to all registrants who are confirmed to attend.

Important Notice: Due to the content presented during a CEC course and the restrictions in place for non-citizens to enter federal buildings, international attendees are not permitted to attend CEC courses.
