Southern Crop Site; Amendment 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 Act of 1986 
(``CERCLA''), against John McCrocklin, the prospective purchaser (``the 
purchaser''). The Settlement would require the purchaser to pay to EPA 
the sum of $150,000.00 within 120 calendar days of the effective date 
of the Agreement, provide EPA access to the Site, and place certain 
deed restrictions on the property. 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, 404/347-5059, vmx. 6169.
