    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    The site to be deleted from the NPL is: Intermountain Waste Oil Refinery Superfund Site, Bountiful, Salt Lake County, Utah. A Notice of Intent to Delete for this Site was published in the Federal Register (84 FR 35356) on July 23, 2019.

    The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was August 22, 2019. One public comment in support of the deletion was received; no adverse comments were received.

    EPA maintains the NPL as the list of sites that appear to present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the environment. Deletion from the NPL does not preclude further remedial action. Whenever there is a significant release from a site deleted from the NPL, the deleted site may be restored to the NPL without application of the hazard ranking system. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability in the unlikely event that future conditions warrant further actions.
