Environmental Cleanups in Alaska

Cleanups in AlaskaCleanups in Alaska include environmental accidents, spills, leaks, and past improper disposal and handling of hazardous materials and wastes have resulted in tens of thousands of sites across our country that have contaminated our land, water (groundwater and surface water), and air (indoor and outdoor). Some of the more common categories of contaminants include: industrial solvents, petroleum products, metals, pesticides, bacteria, and radiological materials.
These contaminated sites in Alaska can threaten human health as well as the environment, in addition to hampering economic growth and the vitality of local communities in Alaska . EPA and its state and territorial partners have developed a variety of cleanup programs to assess and, where necessary, clean up these contaminated sites.
