The CalEPA State Water Resources Control Board is Issuing Very Few No Further Action Letters!
About this episode
Matt Winefield discusses the decline in No Further Action letter issuance rates and its implications for brownfield investments in California.
This podcast episode is a companion discussion for the W&A February 26, 2024, Vapor Intrusion blog, which you can access here: https://www.winefieldinc.com/vi-blog/calepa-swrcb-site-closure-rates-continue-to-decline-likely-due-to-vapor-intrusion-guidance Matt Winefield discusses the Winefield & Associates GeoTracker data review of No Further Action (NFA) letter issuance rates before and after the CalEPA Vapor Intrusion Guidance (VIG) was promulgated. The data is not pretty. There no longer appears to be a path to closure for remediation projects of sites impacted with volatile organic compounds. Absent the ability to eventually achieve an NFA, brownfield investments throughout California are precarious.
