Toxics Cleanup Program

The Toxics Cleanup Program is a government initiative that identifies, monitors, and cleans up sites contaminated with hazardous substances, such as old industrial facilities or waste disposal areas. Its goal is to protect public health and the environment by reducing exposure to harmful chemicals. The program assesses pollution levels, enforces cleanup laws, and ensures responsible parties take necessary action, or uses public funds when responsible parties cannot be identified. Overall, it works to restore contaminated lands, making them safe for communities and future use.
