RPO - Relevant Policies and Guidance

Relevant Policies and Guidance
In March 2005, the Air Staff USAF Environmental Restoration Branch (A7CVR) published the Air Force Remedial Process Optimization Policy Memorandum to provide further guidance and clarification of existing Performance Based Management (now replaced by the ERP-O) and optimization policy with a focus on RPO.

The RPO policy implements optimization requirements directed by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health (SAF/IEE) memo, Air Force Cleanup Program Performance-Based Management Policy, 27 October 2004. This policy supplements the Management Guidance for Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP), September 2001, which mandates continuous reviews of response actions, with the intent of ensuring protectiveness and optimization of remedial actions; as well as the Management Guidance for the Air Force Environmental Restoration Program (ERP), February 2003, which requires annual optimization reviews for sites with an installed RIP.
