40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-5800-8]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan;
National Priorities List
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of deletion of the Carter Industrials Site, Michigan
from the National Priorities List (NPL).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 14004]]
SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA)
Region 5 announces the deletion of the Carter Industrial Site from the
National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is codified as Appendix B of 40
CFR Part 300. It is part of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances
Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), which U.S. EPA promulgated pursuant
to Section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) as amended. U.S. EPA,
in consultation with the State of Michigan, has determined that all
appropriate Fund-financed response under CERCLA has been implemented at
the Carter Site and that no further response action by responsible
parties is appropriate. In accordance with 40 CFR 300.425(e), the
Carter Industrial Site may therefore be deleted from the NPL. The State
of Michigan concurs with this deletion.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 25, 1997.
ADDRESSES: Information on the Site is available at the local
information repository located at: Main Library, Reference Department,
The Detroit Public Library 5201 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, Michigan
48226.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is:
Carter Industrials Site located in Detroit, Michigan. A Notice of
Intent to Delete for this site was published December 30, 1996 (61 FR
68695). The closing date for the comments on the Notice of Intent to
Delete was January 30, 1997. EPA received no comments and therefore has
not prepared a Responsiveness Summary.
The U.S. 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 the subject of
Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (Fund-) financed remedial
actions. Any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-
financed remedial actions should future conditions at the site warrant
such action. If there is a significant release from a deleted site, the
site is restored to the NPL without going through the Hazardous Ranking
System.
