Performance Measures
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
The 1993 Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), holds federal agencies accountable for using resources wisely and achieving program results.
Superfund's GPRA measures include:
Sitewide Ready for Anticipated Use (SWRAU): This measure tracks sites on the NPL where: 1) construction of the remedy is completed, 2) all cleanup goals have been achieved to reduce unacceptable risk that could affect current and reasonably anticipated future land uses of the site, and 3) all institutional controls have been implemented.
Human Exposure Under Control (HEUC): This measure tracks sites on the NPL where all identified unacceptable human exposures from site contamination for current land and/or ground water use conditions have been controlled.
Groundwater Migration Under Control (GMUC): This measure tracks sites on the NPL where either: 1) contamination is below protective, risk-based levels or, if not, 2) where the migration of contaminated ground water is stabilized, there is no unacceptable discharge to surface water, and monitoring will be conducted to confirm that affected ground water remains in the original area of contamination.
Final Assessment Decision (FAD): This measure tracks sites at which remedial site assessment work under the Federal Superfund program has been completed, and available information indicates either: 1) no further work is necessary under the Federal Superfund Program; or 2) cleanup attention is needed under Superfund or another Federal, state or tribal environmental cleanup program.
Construction Completed (CC): This measure tracks sites on the NPL where construction of the remedy is completed.
