Class Name:  
Remedial Design-Remedial Action (RD/RA)
Class Description:
Remedial Design/Remedial Action (RD/RA) focuses on the RD/RA phase of Superfund projects, addressing the objectives, issues, and challenges faced by Remedial Project Managers (RPMs) during response planning and implementation. The course provides a comprehensive examination of the RD/RA process, providing practical guidance to effectively implement the design and construction phases of a Superfund cleanup. It emphasizes the crucial role of the RPM in planning RD/RA projects, highlighting their responsibilities in managing contracting, scheduling, budgeting, and other aspects of the effort; coordinating activities with states and tribes; and conducting effective community relations efforts. Participants have the opportunity to work through realistic case studies that illustrate actual issues and problems that may arise.

Course Objectives:

  • Identify steps for implementing and completing an RD/RA project under Superfund. 
  • Describe the overall effort required to conduct an RD/RA project and anticipate potential difficulties that may arise. 
  • Describe the role of the RPM as the project manager. 
  • Apply the skills developed to real-life situations. 

The RD/RA course is recommended for EPA RPMs with two or more years of experience or those currently involved or soon to be involved in an RD/RA project. It also serves as a valuable refresher for more experienced RPMs, and may benefit other Federal Agency, state and tribal site managers involved in RD/RA projects.

The CERCLA Education Center (CEC) understands that questions will continue regarding the status of CEC courses currently planned for 2023. Although we hope to be able to hold classroom trainings, the CEC will assess current conditions and make a go/no-go decision for each course six weeks prior to the start of the delivery. The CEC will assess current local and EPA COVID-19 guidelines; current EPA travel policies; and the number of students enrolled in a course before making a decision. Registered students will receive a notification via email if the course is postponed. Information will also be posted to the appropriate Trainex page. Questions may be directed to Jodi McCarty, ICF (jodi.mccarty@icf.com).
