Current through August 26, 2024

The purpose of this chapter is to ensure that site investigations provide the information necessary to define the nature, degree and extent of contamination, define the source or sources of contamination, determine whether any interim actions, remedial actions, or both are necessary at the site or facility, and allow an interim or remedial action option to be selected that complies with applicable environmental laws. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to require plans or reports that are more detailed or complex than is justified by the known scope of contamination or the complexity of the site or facility. This chapter is adopted pursuant to ss. 227.11(2), 287.03(1) (a), and 289.06, Stats., and ch. 292, Stats.
