Superfund Reuse Policy and Guidance
A broad mix of new and existing residential, commercial, and industrial land uses cover the 25-acre Bendix-Bosch Automotive Group Superfund site in St. Joseph, MI.
The following guidance documents are primarily for EPA and state remedial project managers. However, because these documents encompass EPA policy on tools for incorporating future land use considerations into the remedy decision making process and Ready for Reuse determinations, they contain information relevant to the redevelopment of a Superfund site.
