Biden Signs Good Samaritan Act

Biden Signs Good Samaritan Bill

The bill requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish a 7-year pilot program for 15 Good Samaritan remediation projects that will be implemented under EPA permit and oversight. Permit compliance avoids liability issues with the Clean Water Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA, commonly known as Superfund). The Senate and House initial bill sponsors included Sens. Martin Heinrich (D-NM), and Jim Risch (R-ID); and Reps. Celeste Maloy (R-UT) and Mary Peltola (D-AK).
