Decision Document
In the NYSDEC BCP process, once a remedy is proposed, a fact sheet and public comment period occur, after which DEC issues a final Decision Document describing the selected remedy. This document becomes the basis for remedy implementation and achievement of remedial action objectives leading to a Certificate of Completion.

In practice
