Requesting Approval of Additional Polluting Substances and Alternative Criteria
The Remediation Standard Regulations (RSRs), contain numeric cleanup standards for 88 substances. When a contaminant at a site is not one of the 88 substances, Additional Polluting Substance (APS) criteria must be approved by the Commissioner to complete cleanup at the site under the RSRs. When the RSRs contain criteria for a substance but a party believes different numeric criteria are appropriate for a specific site, that party may request approval of Alternative Criteria.

The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) presented proposed concepts in the RSR Wave 2 Conceptual Language document, as well as at multiple question and answer sessions and accepted public feedback regarding revisions to the Remediation Standard Regulations.
The Remediation Standard Regulations that established the requirements for the remediation of contamination within Connecticut were organized by environmental media and relied, in part, on risk-based criteria that established remediation goals for various contaminants typically found at remediation sites.
