National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan

National Priorities List Update

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of deletion of the C&J disposal site from the National

Priorities List.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region II announces

the deletion of the C&J Disposal site from the National Priorities List

(NPL). The NPL is Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 which is the National

Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), which

EPA promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive

Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), as

amended. EPA and the State of New York have determined that all

appropriate Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (Fund) -financed

responses under CERCLA have been implemented and that no further

cleanup by responsible parties is appropriate. Moreover, EPA and the

State of New York have determined that remedial actions conducted at

the site to date have been protective of public health, welfare, and

the environment.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 20, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jack O'Dell, Remedial Project Manager,

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region II, 26 Federal Plaza, room

29-102, New York, NY 10278, (212) 264-1263.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is:

C&J Disposal site, Eaton, New York

The closing date for comments on the notice of intent to delete was

August 20, 1994. EPA received no verbal or written comments.

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 300.66(c)(8) of the

NCP states that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted

from the NPL. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect

responsible party liability or impede EPA efforts to recover costs

associated with response efforts.
