ACTION: Notice of Deletion of the Dakhue Sanitary Landfill Superfund Site from the National Priorities List (NPL). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces the deletion of the Dakhue Sanitary Landfill site in Minnesota 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. EPA and the State of Minnesota have determined that all appropriate Fund-financed responses under CERCLA have been implemented and that no further response by responsible parties is appropriate. Moreover, EPA and the State of Minnesota have determined that remedial actions conducted at the site to date remain protective of public health, welfare, and the environment. EFFECTIVE DATE: July 24, 1995. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gladys Beard at (312) 886-7253, Associate Remedial Project Manager, Office of Superfund, U.S. EPA-- Region V, 77 West Jackson Blvd., Chicago, IL 60604. Information on the site is available at the local information repository located at: Cannon Falls Public Library, 306 West Mill St., Cannon Falls, MN.

The point of contact for the Regional Docket Office is Jan Pfundheller (H-7J), U.S. EPA, Region V, 77 W. Jackson Blvd., Chicago, IL 60604, (312) 353-5821. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is the Dakhue Sanitary Landfill Site located in Cannon Falls, Minnesota. A Notice of Intent to Delete was published March 15, 1995 (60 FR 13944) for this site. The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was April 14, 1995. EPA received comments and therefore a Responsiveness Summary was prepared. The Responsiveness Summary and original comments are available in the public information repositories. 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 Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (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 states that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL in the unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such action. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede Agency efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
