The Legacy Management (LM) Program has responsibility for management of over 85 post-closure sites across the United States. The program was formed through a consolidation of AEC/DOE sites being managed under separate programs and with diverse geography, regulatory bases, residual contaminants, and operating histories. Through development and implementation of a nation-wide program to ensure public safety, remedy performance, compliance, records management and ongoing stakeholder communication, the program has become efficient at meeting post-closure responsibilities and effective at proactively turning these liabilities into assets.
