ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-5333-6]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan;
National Priorities List
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of deletion of Woodbury Chemical Site from the National
Priorities List.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IV announces
the deletion of the Woodbury Chemical Site, Princeton, Florida, from
the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL constitutes Appendix B
which is 40 CFR part 300 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 (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. EPA and the State of
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: November 27, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Joe Franzmathes, Director, Waste Management Division, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, 345 Courtland Street NE, Atlanta,
Georgia 30365. Comprehensive information on this Site is available
through the Region IV public docket, which is available for viewing at
the Woodbury Chemical information repositories at two locations.
Locations and phone numbers are: U.S EPA Record Center, 345 Courtland
Street N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30365, (404) 347-0506, and South Dade
Regional Library, 10750 SW 211th Street, Cutler Ridge, Florida 33189,
(305) 233-8140.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joe Franzmathes, (404) 347-3454.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Woodbury Chemical Site in Princeton,
Florida, is being deleted from the NPL.
A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published on August
21, 1995 (60 FR 43424). The closing date for comments on the Notice of
Intent to Delete was September 20, 1995. EPA received no comments and
therefore did not prepare a Responsiveness Summary.
The EPA identifies sites which appear to present a significant risk
to public health welfare, or the environment and it maintains the NPL
as the list of those sites. Sites on the NPL may be subject of
Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (Fund-) financed remedial
actions. Any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-
financed remedial actions in the unlikely event that conditions at the
site warrant such action. Section 301.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that
Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL in the
unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such action.
Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party
liability or impede agency efforts to recover costs associated with
response efforts.
