Reducing and managing risk is a central element of the DERP. In its earlier years,the DERP forcrsed heavily on the identification,investigation,and cleanup of land impacted by decades of defense operations and training activities. As ft program expanded to include historic use of military munitions at its active installations,the program progressed from study to cleanup of industrial remediation of past contamination. i The DERP has also included demolition and removing unsafe buildings and structures primarily at former DoD properties that pose health E risks to personnel and the general public.In all 50 states,the District of Columbia,and 8 U.S.territories,DoD is working to protect citizens and our natural resources by restoring public lands. DoD has created two distinct programs within the DERP to most effectively address remediation of its sites.The Installation Restoration Program(IRP)primarily addresses Ww impacted by hazardous substances. These sites are similar sites across the country contaminated from past practices at industrial and commercial areas,such as municipal landfills and factories,The!RI'is a proven program with successes achieved over the past two decades.Through the newly established Military Munitions Response Program(MMRP),DoD can most effectively respond to unexploded ordnance and military munitions waste at areas other than operational ranges.In the coming years,DoD will develop the MMRP to mirror the successes of the IRP.

The OSD Cleanup Office is responsible for programming and budgeting for FUDS requirements. The Army is the executive agent for management of FUDS properties,while the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers(USAGE)is the day-to-day executor for all aspects of the program.FUDS project categories Include,but are not limited to: -Hazardous,toric and radioactive waste(HTRW); -Management of FUDS properties,while the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers(USAGE)is the day- to-day executor for all aspects of the program; -Containerized HTRW; -Building demolition and debris removal; -Potentially responsible party sties; I USACE catalogs all FUDS properties on their site inventory,which details property locations,property number,a nd status of potentially hazardous findings. Three phases may be used to determine the restoration process at FUDS properties:Inventoy, Investigation,arid Cleanup.Once the property is confirmed as being formerly used by a defense agency,it is entered into the FUDS inventory.if contamination resulting from past Defense practices exists,an investigation must be conducted to determine the extent of the contamination and the appropriate response.Once these two phases are completed a cleanup process will begin to reduce the risk of human health and the environment,or to improve public safety.Cleanup activities are acccimplished based on priority sites posing the greatest risks are addressed first.
