The high end cost of professionals and litigation matter caused the faliure of Superfund

Explanation:

Super fund program was initiated by the united States to clean most toxic and contaminated places in 1980.

It strengthened the EPA by providing them power to identify organisation responsible for producing noxious hazards nationwide. Till today 1300 such sites lie on the priority list of the programme.

The programe was a shortcut strategy to clean up the harmful sites by billions of funding. But cases such as lake canal where the clean up programme even after 15 years is slow due to litigation and high cost issues  makes the consequence dicey.

Most of the cost estimated for any cleaning any hazardous sites consists of made administrative fees and lawyers salary apart from the actual cost of cleaning which caused the failure of Superfund in terms of its implementation
