40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-6157-8]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan 
National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of deletion for the Golden Strip Septic Tank Superfund 
Site from the National Priorities List (NPL).

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 4 announces 
the deletion of the Golden Strip Septic Tank Superfund Site from the 
National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL constitutes 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 Environment Response, Compensation and 
Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. EPA and the State of South 
Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) have 
determined that all remedial action objectives have been met and the 
Site poses no significant threat to public health or the environment. 
Therefore, further remedial measures are not appropriate.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 10, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Craig Zeller, P.E., Remedial Project 
Manager, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Waste 
Management Division--North Site Management Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, 
SW, Atlanta, GA 30303, (404) 562-8827 or toll free at 1-800-435-9233.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: 
Golden Strip Septic Tank Superfund Site in Simpsonville, South 
Carolina.
    A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published on July 9, 
1998, (FR-6121-9) (63 FR 37085). The closing date for comments on the 
Notice of Intent to Delete was August 10, 1998. EPA received no 
comments.
    EPA identifies sites that appear to present a significant risk to 
the public health, welfare and the environment and it maintains the NPL 
as the list of those sites. Any site deleted from the NPL remains 
eligible for Fund-financed remedial actions in the future. Section 
300.425(e)(3) 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 agency efforts to recover 
costs associated with response efforts.
