SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 10 announces 
the deletion of the Naval Magazine Indian Island Superfund Site, Port 
Hadlock, Washington, from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL 
is defined in 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. 
EPA and the State of Washington have determined that the Site poses no 
significant threat to public health or the environment. All appropriate 
response

[[Page 34381]]

actions have been implemented, therefore, no further remedial measures 
pursuant to CERCLA are appropriate.

DATES: Effective Date: June 14, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy Harney, Remedial Project 
Manager, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 10, 1200 Sixth 
Avenue, ECL-111, Seattle, Washington 98101, (206) 553-6635.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: 
Naval Magazine Indian Island, Port Hadlock, Washington. A Notice of 
Intent to Delete for this Site was published in the Federal Register on 
April 15, 2005 (70 FR 19915). The closing date for comments was May 16, 
2005. No comments were received therefore, EPA has not prepared a 
Responsiveness Summary.
    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 remedial actions in the unlikely that conditions at the site 
warrant such action. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect 
responsible party liability or impede agency efforts to recover costs 
associated with response efforts.
