for authorization to disclose to its contractor, Labat-Anderson, Inc. 
(hereinafter ``Labat-Anderson''), of Arlington, Virginia, Superfund 
confidential business information (``CBI'') which has been submitted to 
EPA Region 9, Hazardous Waste Management Division, Office of Superfund 
Programs. Labat-Anderson's principal offices are located at 2200

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, including 
those relevant to cost recovery. EPA has entered into a contract, No. 
68-W4-0028, with Labat-Anderson, for management of these records. EPA 
Region 9 has determined that disclosure of CBI to Labat-Anderson 
employees is necessary in order that Labat-Anderson may carry out the 
work required by that contract with EPA. The contract complies with all 
requirements of 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(ii) incorporated by reference into 
40 CFR 2.310(h)(2). The Labat-Anderson employees working for the 
Superfund Program in EPA Region 9 have each signed a written agreement 
that he or she; (1) Will 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 legal office; 
and (3) shall return to EPA all copies of information (and any 
abstracts or extracts therefrom) upon request from the EPA program 
office, whenever the information is no longer required by Labat-
Anderson for performance of the work required by the contract, or upon 
completion of the contract. These non-disclosure statements shall be 
maintained on file with the Region 9 Delivery Order Project Officer. 
Labat-Anderson employees have been trained on Superfund CBI 
requirements.
    EPA hereby advises affected parties that they have ten working days 
to comment pursuant to 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(iii) incorporated by 
reference into 40 CFR 2.310(h)(2). Comments should be sent to: 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, Elaine Chan (H-7-4), 75 
Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California 94105.

    Dated: September 19, 1994.

Director, Hazardous Waste Management Division, EPA Region 9.
