ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-5249-1]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan;
National Priorities List Update
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of deletion of Alpha Chemical Corporation Site from the
National Priorities List.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IV announces
the deletion of the Alpha Chemical Corporation Site in Lakeland,
Florida, from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is codified
as appendix B of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution
Contingency Plan (NCP), 40 CFR Part 300, 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, no further response pursuant to
CERCLA is appropriate.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 28, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joe Franzmathes, Director, Waste
Management Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 345
Courtland Street, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30365, (404)347-3454.
Comprehensive information on this Site is available at two information
repositories located at: Lakeland Public Library, 100 Lake Morton
Drive, Lakeland, Florida 33801, (813) 499-8242 and U.S EPA Record
Center, 345 Courtland Street, N.E. Atlanta, Georgia 30365 (404)347-
0506.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Alpha Chemical Corporation Site in
Lakeland, Florida, is being deleted from the NPL.
A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published on May 3,
1995 (60 FR 21786). The closing date for comments on the Notice of
Intent to Delete was June 2, 1995. EPA received no comments and
therefore did not prepared 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.
