OSWER Climate Change Adaptation Implementation Plan

The U.S. EPA Office of Land and Emergency Management (OLEM, previously known as OSWER) issued the "OSWER Climate Change Adaptation Implementation Plan" in 2014. The plan summarizes implications of climate change on OLEM activities and programs, including those at Superfund, brownfield, RCRA corrective action, and leaking underground storage tank sites. The plan also identifies specific priority actions that OLEM is taking to address its vulnerabilities and mainstream climate change adaptation into its activities.
