List of Superfund sites in Oregon

The CERCLA federal law of 1980 authorized the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to clean up contaminated properties and create the NPL list.

On this list are the most polluted sites requiring a long-term response to clean up hazardous material contaminations.

[1] The NPL guides EPA in "determining which sites warrant further investigation" for significant environmental remediation.

[2] As of April 2010, there were thirteen Superfund sites on the National Priorities List in Oregon.

A secondary goal is to return the site to productive use as a business, recreation or as a natural ecosystem.
