This research investigates the process required to remediate (cleanup) non-National Priorities List (non-NPL) hazardous waste sites. The
research addresses the many laws and regulations on hazardous waste cleanup specific to Department of Defence and Navy processes to correct
and remediate existing sites. The thesis gathered data through survey of the seven Engineering Field Divisions within the Naval Facilities
Command organization. The survey provided opportunity to cover concerns of representatives currently involved in cleanup operations for the
Navy. The research concludes that NAVFAC should actively endorse a broader use of partnering and teams to quicken the remediation process.
