to alleviate itietal and organic contamination problems in 

 soils and surface and ground water will be guided by selected 

 ARARs that protect public health and help to achieve improved 

 water quality in Silver Bow Creek and the Clark Fork. These 

 actions will also be coordinated with other environmental 

 improvement programs being conducted in the area. 



The schedule for achieving cleanup goals depends on a 

 large number of variables, but substantial progress will 

 likely be made during the next several years. The following 

 are high-priority problem areas that are either already being 

 addressed or will be addressed during the next two years: 



Mill Creek 

 Walkerville Soils 

 Warm Springs Ponds 

 Butte Priority Soils 

 Anaconda Old Works 

 Berkeley Pit Mine Flooding 

 Travona Flooding 

 Montana Pole 

 Anaconda Flue Dust 

 Rocker 



Some of these investigations are still in the negotia- 

 tion stage, and completion dates are not firm. Periodic 

 site-specific fact sheets and master plan updates will be 

 prepared for public dissemination as long as studies and 

 corrective actions continue. 



The following text provides a brief summary of each 

 Superfund site. Any reader seeking more detailed information 

 regarding the status and future plans at these sites should
