40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-6448-7]
National Oil and Hazardous Substance Pollution Contingency Plan;
National Priorities List
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of Deletion of the 62nd Street Superfund Site from the
National Priorities List (NPL).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 4 announces
the deletion of the 62nd Street Superfund Site from the National
Priorities List (NPL). The NPL constitutes Appendix B of 40 CFR Part
300 which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution
Contingency Plan (NCP), which EPA promulgated pursuant to Section 105
of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended. EPA and the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) have determined that the
Site poses no significant threat to public health or the environment
and therefore, further response measures pursuant to CERCLA are not
appropriate.
EFFECTIVE DATE: October 1, 1999.
ADDRESSES: Comprehensive information on this site is available through
the EPA Region 4 public docket, which is available for viewing at the
information repositories at two locations. Locations, contacts, phone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA announces the deletion of the 62nd
Street Superfund Site in Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida from the
NPL, which constitutes Appendix B of 40 CFR Part 300. EPA published a
Notice of Intent to Delete the 62nd Street Superfund Site from the NPL
on August 4, 1999 in the Federal Register (64 FR 42328). EPA received
no comments on the proposed deletion; therefore, no responsiveness
summary is necessary for this Notice of Deletion. EPA identifies sites
on the NPL that appear to present a significant risk to public health,
welfare, or the environment. Sites on the NPL may be the subject of
remedial actions financed by the Hazardous Substances Superfund
Response Trust Fund (Fund). Pursuant to 40 CFR 300.425(e)(3) of the
NCP, any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-financed
Remedial Actions if conditions at the site warrant such action.
Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect the responsible party
liability or impede agency efforts to recover costs associated with
response efforts.
