SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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. EPA has
entered into ESS contract No. 68-W4-0039 for management of those
records. EPA Region 7 has determined that disclosure of CBI to Dynamac
is necessary in order that the contractor may carry out the work
requested under the above 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 7 will require that each Dynamac employee working on cost
recovery work sign a written agreement that he or she:
(1) Shall 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 regional office; and
(3) Shall return to EPA all copies of the information and any
contracts 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 Dynamac for performance of work requested under the
contract. These non-disclosure statements shall be maintained on file
with the EPA Region 7 Project Officer for Dynamac. Dynamac employees
will be provided technical direction from their respective EPA contract
management staff.
EPA hereby advises affected parties that they have ten (10) working
days to comment pursuant to 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(iii) and 40 CFR
2.310(h). Comments should be sent to: Glenn Curtis, Environmental
Protection Agency, Region 7, 726 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas
66101.
Dated: September 22, 1994.
William Rice,
Acting Regional Administrator.
