Southern Crop Site; Notice of Proposed Purchaser Agreement

    Notice is hereby given that a proposed prospective purchaser 
agreement associated with Southern Crop Superfund Site in Palm Beach, 
Florida has been approved by the Agency and by the Department of 
Justice. The Prospective Purchaser Agreement would resolve certain 
potential EPA claims under Sections 106 and 107 of the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as 
Amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Action on 1986 
(``CERCLA''), against John McCrocklin, the prospective purchaser (``the 
purchaser'').
    The settlement would require the purchaser to provide for proper 
disposal of any wastes, debris, or other materials generated by a 
proposed railroad realignment over a portion of the Southern Crop Site 
within 90 days for any wastes so generated, and to provide EPA access 
to the Site. EPA will consider public comments on the proposed 
agreement for thirty (30) days. EPA may withdraw from or modify the 
proposed purchaser agreement should such comments disclose facts or 
considerations which indicate the proposed agreement is inappropriate, 
improper, or inadequate.
    Copies of the agreement are available from: Paula V. Batchelor, 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Waste Management 
Division, 345 Courtland Street, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30365, 404/347-

    Written comments must be submitted to Ms. Batchelor at the above 
address by September 6, 1996.

    Dated: July 19, 1996.
James S. Kutzman,
Acting Director, Waste Management Division.
