ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-7062-9]


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

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Final deletion of the Shenandoah Stables Superfund site from 
the National Priorities List (NPL).

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces the 
deletion of the Shenandoah Stables site in Lincoln County, Missouri, 
from the NPL. The NPL is 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 of 1980 
(CERCLA), as amended. The EPA and the State of Missouri have determined 
that the site poses no significant threat to public health or the 
environment and, therefore, no further remedial measures pursuant to 
CERCLA are appropriate.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 25, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Feild, Remedial Project 
Manager, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7, 901 N. 5th 
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: 
Shenandoah Stables site, Lincoln County, Missouri.
    A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published in the 
Federal Register on August 7, 2001 (66 FR 41177). The closing date for 
comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was September 6, 2001. No 
comments were received; therefore, EPA has not prepared a 
Responsiveness Summary.
    The EPA identifies sites that appear to present a significant risk 
to public health, welfare, or 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 unlikely event that 
conditions at the site warrant such action. 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.
