ACTION: Notice of deletion of the North U Drive Site from the National Priorities List (NPL). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region VII announces the deletion of the North U Drive Site in Springfield, Missouri, 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. The EPA and the State of Missouri have determined that the contaminant releases do not pose a significant threat to human health, welfare, or the environment. Therefore, no further response action is appropriate. EFFECTIVE DATE: September 8, 1994. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Steve Sturgess, Missouri Department of Natural Resources, Hazardous Waste Program, Superfund Section, P.O. Box 176, Jefferson City, Missouri 65102, telephone (314) 751-1807 or Ronald King, Environmental Protection Agency, 726 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas 66101, telephone (913) 551-7568. ADDRESSES: Comprehensive information on this site is available at the following locations: Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Hazardous Waste Program File Room (205 Jefferson Street) in Jefferson City, Missouri; at EPA Region VII Waste Management Division Records Center, 726 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas; and at the Kearney Branch Library, 630 W. Kearney, Springfield, Missouri 65801. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: North U Drive site, Springfield, Missouri. A notice of intent to delete for this site was published in the Federal Register June 24, 1994 (59 FR 32673). The closing date for comments on the notice of intent was July 25, 1994. No comments were received on the proposed deletion. Therefore, no responsiveness summary was prepared. Based on a review of environmental and other data for this site, The Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) and EPA have determined that the site does not pose a significant risk to human health or the environment. The site shall continue to be monitored by the MDNR. MDNR and EPA will review the ground water monitoring as part of each five-year review. 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 Fund-financed remedial actions. Any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-financed remedial actions in the unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such action. Section 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP provides that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL when conditions warrant. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede EPA efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
