Notice of Required Determinations, Contract Provisions and
Opportunity To Comment
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980 (``CERCLA''), as amended, (commonly known as
``Superfund'') requires the establishment of an administrative record
upon which the President shall base the selection of a response action.
CERCLA also requires the maintenance of many other records, including
those relevant to cost recovery. EPA has entered into Enforcement
Support Services (ESS) contract No. 68-W4-0025 with TechLaw for
management of these records. EPA Region 8 has determined that
disclosure of CBI to TechLaw employees is necessary in order that they
may carry out the work requested under this contract with EPA. The
contract complies with all requirements of 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(ii) and
40 CFR 2.310(h). EPA Region 8 will require that each TechLaw employee
working on cost recovery work sign a written agreement that he or she:
(1) Will use the information only for the purpose of carrying out
the work required by the contract.
(2) Shall refrain from disclosing the information to anyone other
than EPA without the prior written approval of each affected business
or of an EPA legal office, and
(3) Shall return to EPA all copies of the information and any
abstracts or extracts therefrom, (a) upon completion of the contract,
(b) upon request of the EPA, or (c) whenever the information is no
longer required by TechLaw for performance of work requested under the
contract. These non-disclosure statements shall be maintained on file
with the EPA Region 8 Project Officer for TechLaw. TechLaw employees
will be provided technical direction from EPA contract management
staff.
EPA hereby advises affected parties that they have ten working days
to comment pursuant to 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(iii) and 40 CFR 2.310(h).
Comments should be sent to Environmental Protection Agency, Region 8,
Carol Macy, 8HWM-SR, 999 18th St, Denver, Colorado 80202.
