ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-6717-9]


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

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to delete the 3.45 acres of the Motor Wheel 
Disposal Superfund site (Site) from the NPL and requests public comment 
on this action. The NPL constitutes appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 of 
the National and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), 
which EPA promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 
(CERCLA) as amended. EPA has determined that this portion of the Site 
currently poses no significant threat to public health or the 
environment, as defined by CERCLA, and therefore, further remedial 
measures under CERCLA are not appropriate. We are publishing this 
proposed rule without prior notification because the Agency views this 
as a noncontroversial revision and anticipates no dissenting comments. 
A detailed rationale for this approval is set forth in the direct final 
rule. If no dissenting comments are received, the deletion will become 
effective. If EPA receives dissenting comments, the direct final action 
will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 
a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments concerning this Action must be received by July 24, 
2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Heather Nelson, Remedial Project 
Manager, or Gladys Beard, Associate Remedial Project Manager, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency (SR-6J), 77 W. Jackson, Chicago, IL
