Title: Methamphetamine Lab Clean-up and Remediation Issues
Authors: Michael Simpson, Resources, Science, and Industry Division 
Abstract: No uniform federal guidelines or standards exist governing the process or the endpoint for cleaning or remediating STLs. Across various states, acceptable levels of meth residue, after remediation, range from 0.05 to 0.1 micrograms of meth per 100 square centimeters of surface. Twelve congressional bills, one enacted into law in March, relate broadly to meth site cleaning or remediation.
