ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-5800-8]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of deletion of the Carter Industrials Site, Michigan 
from the National Priorities List (NPL).

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

[[Page 14004]]

SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) 
Region 5 announces the deletion of the Carter Industrial Site from the 
National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is codified as Appendix B of 40 
CFR Part 300. It is part of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances 
Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), which U.S. EPA promulgated pursuant 
to Section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, 
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) as amended. U.S. EPA, 
in consultation with the State of Michigan, has determined that all 
appropriate Fund-financed response under CERCLA has been implemented at 
the Carter Site and that no further response action by responsible 
parties is appropriate. In accordance with 40 CFR 300.425(e), the 
Carter Industrial Site may therefore be deleted from the NPL. The State 
of Michigan concurs with this deletion.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 25, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Information on the Site is available at the local 
information repository located at: Main Library, Reference Department, 
The Detroit Public Library 5201 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, Michigan 
48226.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gladys Beard, Associate Remedial 
Project Manager, (SR-6J) Superfund Division, U.S. EPA, Region V, 77 W.

Blvd., Chicago, IL 60604, (312) 353-5821.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: 
Carter Industrials Site located in Detroit, Michigan. A Notice of 
Intent to Delete for this site was published December 30, 1996 (61 FR 
68695). The closing date for the comments on the Notice of Intent to 
Delete was January 30, 1997. EPA received no comments and therefore has 
not prepared a Responsiveness Summary.
    The U.S. 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 should future conditions at the site warrant 
such action. If there is a significant release from a deleted site, the 
site is restored to the NPL without going through the Hazardous Ranking 
System.
