RCRA sites exist in thousands of communities across the United States ranging from remote to large urban settings. Many of them are located in economically distressed communities.
To help describe who benefits from our RCRA Corrective Action (CA) Program cleanup work, EPA collected data on the population living within 3 and 1 mile(s) of RCRA CA sites.
