ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-6342-5]


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

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of Deletion of Yellow Water Road Dump Superfund Site 
from the National Priorities List (NPL).

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 4 announces 
the deletion of the Yellow Water Road Dump 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 Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act 
(CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. EPA and the Florida Department of 
Environmental Protection (FDEP) have determined that the Site poses no 
significant threat to public health or the environment and, therefore, 
further remedial measures pursuant to CERCLA are not appropriate.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 18, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Comprehensive information on this Site is available through 
the EPA Region 4 public docket, which is available for viewing at the 
information repositories at the following two locations:

Record Center, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, 61

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 61 Forsyth Street, Atlanta, 
Georgia 30303, (404) 562-8917.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 
Region 4 announces the deletion of the Yellow Water Road Dump Site, 
Duval County, Florida from the National Priorities List (NPL), Appendix 
B of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency 
Plan (NCP), 40 CFR part 300 . EPA identifies sites that appear to 
present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the 
environment and maintains the NPL as the list of these sites. Sites on 
the NPL may be the subject of remedial actions financed by the 
Hazardous Substances Superfund Response Trust Fund. As described in 
Sec. 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP, sites deleted from the NPL remain 
eligible for remedial actions in the unlikely event that conditions at 
the Site warrant such action. EPA published a Notice of Intent to 
Delete the Yellow Water Road Dump Site from the NPL on December 23, 
1998 in the Federal Register (63 FR 71052-71054). EPA received no 
comments on the proposed deletion; therefore, no responsiveness summary 
is necessary for attachment to this Notice of Deletion. Deletion of a 
site from the NPL does not affect the responsible party liability or 
impede agency efforts to recover costs associated with response 
efforts.
