A count of homes within a mile of a National Priorities List site is required
What the document says“a report that identifies how many residential dwelling units, and how many dwelling units that are a part of public housing (as defined in section 3(b) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437a(b))), are located less than 1 mile from a site that is included on the National Priorities List”
The section requires the Comptroller General to study and report to Congress within a year on how many residential dwelling units, and how many public housing units, sit less than a mile from a site on the National Priorities List established under section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980.
What the document actually says“a report that identifies how many residential dwelling units, and how many dwelling units that are a part of public housing (as defined in section 3(b) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437a(b))), are located less than 1 mile from a site that is included on the National Priorities List”
The report must count homes near a listed site. It must count public housing units too. The line is less than one mile away.
The list names the worst polluted sites in the country. Many people call them Superfund sites. Nobody has counted the homes near them.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
