Removal actions are generally short-term response actions taken to abate or mitigate imminent substantial threats to human health and the environment. These actions are generally surface cleanups. Removal actions can be triggered by burning, leaking, explosion or other hazardous occurrences that cannot wait for remedial action. Due to the short-term nature of these actions, there is a set $2 million and 12 month limit on Fund-financed removal actions.
