RTDF was established as a public-private partnership in 1992 after industry approached the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to identify what they could do together to develop and improve the environmental technologies needed to address their mutual cleanup problems in the safest, most cost-effective manner. RTDF undertakes research, development, demonstration, and evaluation efforts focused on finding innovative solutions to high priority problems. No new activity has occurred with this Forum since 2006, but the website products will remain available until at least 2015.
