(Solitron) in the City of Riviera Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida. 
EPA proposes to enter into the PPA with the National Land Company

will be protected from CERCLA liability, which may arise from their 
participation in the acquisition of the Property, as described above. 
The protection is contingent on NLC fulfilling the obligations 
enumerated in the PPA.
    EPA will consider public comments on the proposed settlement for 
thirty (30) days. EPA may withdraw from or modify the proposed

which indicate the proposed settlement is inappropriate, improper or 
inadequate.
