[FRL-5533-1]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan; National
Priorities List Update
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of Deletion of the Carter Lee Lumber Company Superfund
Site from the National Priorities List (NPL).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces the
deletion of the Carter Lee Lumber Company Site in Indiana from the
National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is Appendix B of 40 CFR Part
300 which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan
(NCP), which EPA promulgated pursuant to Section 105 of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended. This action is being taken by EPA and the
State of Indiana, because it has been determined that Responsible
Parties have implemented all appropriate response actions required.
Moreover, EPA and the State of Indiana have determined that remedial
actions conducted at the site to date remain protective of public
health, welfare, and the environment.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 9, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is
Carter Lee Lumber Company Site located in Indianapolis, Indiana. A
Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published May 8, 1996 (61
FR 20785). The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to
Delete was June 7, 1996. EPA received no comments and therefore no
Responsiveness Summary was prepared.
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 the subject of
Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (Fund-) financed remedial
actions. Section 300.425(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.
