| Short description: |
EPA has issued a document providing state and local governments technical guidance for methamphetamine lab
cleanups. The document is based on an extensive review of the
best available science and practices for cleanup. Other issues
included are best practices for specific items or materials,
sampling procedures, and technical resources. The
Methamphetamine Remediation Research Act of 2007 required EPA to
develop these guidelines, based on the best currently available
knowledge in the field of meth lab remediation. EPA reviewed
state guidance and regulations to develop these voluntary
guidelines. In addition, this document has received extensive
review and refinement from a broad array of stakeholders as well
as feedback from nationally recognized experts in meth lab
remediation
