Reeves Southeastern Superfund Site; Notice of Proposed Settlement

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice; request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY: Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, 
and Liability Act, as amended (``CERCLA''), the Environmental 
Protection Agency (``EPA'') proposes to enter into a Prospective 
Purchaser Agreement (``PPA'') regarding a portion of the Reeves 
Southeastern Superfund Site in Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida. EPA 
proposes to enter into the PPA with Master-Halco, Inc. (MH). The PPA 
obligates MH to fully cooperate with any response actions EPA may take 
on the property. Further, the PPA provides MH with a covenant not to 
sue from the United States for Existing Contamination on the property. 
The covenant is conditioned upon MH's fulfilling its obligations under 
the PPA. EPA will consider comments on the proposed PPA for thirty (30) 
days.
    EPA may withdraw from or modify the proposed PPA should such 
comments disclose facts or considerations which indicate the proposed 
PPA is inappropriate, improper, or inadequate. Copies of the proposed 
settlement are available from: Ms. Paula V. Batchelor, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region IV, Waste Management Division, 
61 Forsyth Street, S.W., Atlanta, Georgia 30303, 404/562-8887.
    Written comments may be submitted to Ms. Batchelor at the above 
address within 30 days of the date of publication.

    Dated: February 15, 2001.
Franklin E. Hill,
Chief, Cercla Program Services Branch, Waste Management Division.
