Sec. 310.8  Can EPA reimburse the entire cost of my response?

    Possibly not. EPA can only reimburse you for temporary emergency 
measures you take in response to releases of hazardous substances, 
pollutants, or contaminants. The statute allows reimbursement for only 
certain costs, and by statute, the total amount of the reimbursement may 
not exceed $25,000 for a single response.
