Ok. Thank you. I'll let you know if I have any further questions on this as we finalize the piece.

On background: After the Bipartisan Budget Act was passed last week, OMB posted an addendum: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Addendum-to-the-FY-2019-Budget.pdf. EPA was one of only 10 agencies to receive more money after the budget cap deal was reached. Now that Congress has reached a cap deal, we have provided recommended addbacks (such as Superfund) to account for the cap deal, while remaining consistent with the President's overall priorities.
Cleaning up Contaminated Land: In FY 2019, the Superfund program is funded at $1.089 billion, which will provide support to states, local communities and tribes in their efforts to assess and cleanup many of the worst contaminated sites in the United States and return them to productive use. EPA will maximize the dollars appropriated by Congress to reduce administrative costs, identify efficiencies, and prioritize the cleanup of sites. EPA also will invest over $109 million in support for Brownfields to help communities oversee, assess, safely cleanup and redevelop brownfield properties and spur economic growth of local communities.
