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. EPA has 
entered into ESS Contract No. 68-W4-0039 for management of those 
records. EPA Region 7 has determined that disclosure of CBI to Dynamac 
is necessary in order that the contractor may carry out the work 
requested under the above contract with EPA. The contract complies with 
all requirements of 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(ii) and 40 CFR 2.310(h). EPA 
Region 7 will require that each Dynamac employee working on cost 
recovery work sign a written agreement that he or she:
    (1) Shall 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 regional office; and
    (3) Shall return to EPA all copies of the information and any 
contracts or extracts therefrom (a) upon completion of the contract, 
(b) upon request of the EPA, or (c) whenever the information is no 
longer required by Dynamac for performance of work requested under the 
contract. These non-disclosure statements shall be maintained on file 
with the EPA Region 7 Project Officer for Dynamac. Dynamac employees 
will be provided technical direction from their respective EPA contract 
management staff.
    EPA hereby advises affected parties that they have ten (10) working 
days to comment pursuant to 40 CFR 2.301(h)(2)(iii) and 40 CFR 
2.310(h). Comments should be sent to: Jeffrey G. Weatherford, P.E., 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7, 726 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas 
City, Kansas 66101.

    Dated: December 23, 1996.
