Cleanup Sites
- Site Cleanup Project Documents DTSC posts on its Web site key documents related to cleanup sites. If you can't find the project that you're looking for, check the hazardous waste management project documents list, or call our Regulatory Assistance Officers at 800-728-6942.
- Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program EnviroStor Database The new EnviroStor database is an online search and Geographic Information System tool for identifying sites with known or potential contamination, and sites where DTSC's environmental oversight or review has been requested or required. Searches can be conducted by site name, address, city, and county, or EnviroStor ID number. The EnviroStor database can also be downloaded. All public inquiries regarding the EnviroStor database should be directed to the Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program (EnviroStor) help desk at (916) 323-3400 or EnviroStor@dtsc.ca.gov.
- The Hazardous Waste and Substances Site List (also known as the "Cortese List") is a planning document used by the State, local agencies, and developers to comply with California Environmental Quality Act requirements in providing information about the location of hazardous materials releases. Government Code section 65962.5 requires the California Environmental Protection Agency to develop at least annually an updated Cortese List. DTSC is responsible for preparing a portion of the information that comprises the Cortese List, and other State and local government agencies are required to provide additional hazardous material release information that is part of the complete List. You can develop the DTSC portion of the Cortese List based on the DTSC Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program information, at the link above.
- Guidance Manuals for Ground Water Investigations DTSC has established guidance documents and recommended procedures for use by its staff, local governmental agencies, responsible parties and their contractors. These documents have been prepared to provide guidelines for the investigation, monitoring and remediation of ground water at hazardous substance release sites.
- Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) Emission Treatment Technologies and Alternatives. Sponsored by DTSC, the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Davis, developed a Web site that addresses soil vapor extraction (SVE), a process used to draw chemicals in vapor form out of contaminated soil. The site contains information about conventional SVE emission control technologies, and a checklist of questions for communities to consider when faced with the possible need for this technology to be used.

Brownfields Reuse
DTSC Brownfields Vision Brownfields are properties that are contaminated, or thought to be contaminated, and are underutilized due to perceived remediation costs and liability concerns. When agricultural and green spaces are developed for residential, commercial or industrial uses, infrastructure such as roads and sewers must be developed. More about Brownfields Reuse...

Corrective Action
Cleanup activities at RCRA-permitted facilities are called "corrective action." DTSC has web-available information on some facilities at which corrective action is occurring. As corrective action documents for those facilities is developed, they will be added to the facility-related documents. If you can't find the facility that you're looking for, consult one of the lists on the Managing Hazardous Waste page, or call our Regulatory Assistance Officers at 800-728-6942, or 800-72TOXIC. More information about RCRA-permitted facilities that are undergoing cleanup...

Emergency Response
DTSC's Emergency Response Program (ERP) provides statewide response to actual and potential releases of hazardous substances that pose an acute threat to public health and/or the environment, including clandestine drug labs and off-highway spills. The ERP interacts with a number of other state, federal and local agencies in carrying out these emergency response activities. More about the Emergency Response Program (ERP)...

Land Use Restriction Sites
A land use restricted site is a property where DTSC has placed limits or requirements on future use of the property due to varying levels of cleanup possible, practical, or necessary at the site.
As required by Assembly Bill (AB) 871 and AB 2436, DTSC has developed and posted to its Web site Land Use Restricted Sites Lists to provide the public easy access to information on land use restrictions and affected sites.
Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program Facility Sites with Land Use Restrictions
The DTSC Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program (SMBRP) list includes sites cleaned up under the program's oversight and generally does not include current or former hazardous waste facilities that required a hazardous waste facility permit. The list represents land use restrictions that are active. Some sites have multiple land use restrictions. Not all land use restrictions are available at this time. DTSC will continue to update this list as documents become available.
Hazardous Waste Management Program Facility Sites with Deed / Land Use Restriction
The DTSC Hazardous Waste Management Program (HWMP) has developed a list of current or former hazardous waste facilities that have a recorded land use restriction at the local county recorder's office. The land use restrictions on this list were required by the DTSC HWMP as a result of the presence of hazardous substances that remain on site after the facility (or part of the facility) has been closed or cleaned up. The types of land use restriction include deed notice, deed restriction, or a land use restriction that binds current and future owners.
The HWMP List is sorted by:
Site Name
County and City
Assembly District
Senate District
