Summary

The RP/PEA evaluates restoration type alternatives that are to be implemented in the Upper Mobile-Tensaw River Delta with settlement funds from a natural resource damage assessment at the Ciba-Geigy NPL Site to compensate for natural resource injuries incurred as a result of the release of hazardous substances, including the pesticide DDT and other chemicals, at and from the Ciba-Geigy NPL Site in McIntosh, Alabama. As specific restoration projects are identified, they will be evaluated based on their consistency with the restoration type alternatives assessed in the RP/PEA. The RP/PEA identified two proposed restoration type alternatives: 1) Habitat Enhancement and Restoration on Newly Acquired Lands and 2) Habitat Enhancement and Restoration on State-Owned Lands.
