to Comment

    The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and 
Liability Act of 1980 (``CERCLA'') as amended, (commonly known as 
``Superfund'') requires completion of enforcement activities at 
Superfund sites in concert with other site events. EPA has entered into 
several contracts for enforcement support in relation to the Operating 
Industries, Inc. Superfund Site: (1) Contract No. W91238-05-F-0062, 
issued to SAIC by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (``CoE'') pursuant 
to Interagency Agreement No. DW 96955495 between EPA and the CoE; (2) 
Contract No. W91238-07-C-0008 issued to Harry-Torchiana by the CoE 
pursuant to Interagency Agreement No. DW 96955495 between EPA and the 
CoE; and (3) Task Order 263 issued to CACI, Inc. under the U.S. 
Department of Justice's (``DOJ'') MEGA2ALS contract, Contract No. 02-C-
0437, pursuant to Interagency Agreement No. DW-15-95566201-1 between 
EPA and DOJ. Enforcement support services will be provided to EPA by 
SAIC, Harry-Torchiana, and CACI, Inc. EPA has determined that 
disclosure of CBI to SAIC, Harry-Torchiana, CACI, Inc., and their 
respective employees, is necessary in order for these companies to 
carry out their respective work for EPA under their respective 
contracts with the CoE and DOJ, as applicable. The information EPA 
intends to disclose includes submissions made by Potentially 
Responsible Parties to EPA in accordance with EPA's enforcement 
activities at the Operating Industries Inc., Superfund Site. The 
information would be disclosed to the above-named contractors for any 
of the following reasons: to assist with document handling, inventory, 
and indexing; to assist with document review and analysis; to verify 
completeness; and to provide technical review of submittals. The 
respective contracts comply with all requirements of 40 CFR 
2.310(h)(2). EPA Region 9 will require that each of the respective 
subcontractors' employees with access to CBI sign a written agreement 
that he or she: (1) Will use the information only for the purpose of 
carrying out the work required by the contract, (2) will refrain from 
disclosing the information to anyone other than EPA without prior 
written approval of each affected business or of an EPA legal office, 
and (3) will return to EPA all copies of the information (and any 
abstracts or extracts therefrom) upon request from the EPA program 
office, whenever the information is no longer required by the 
subcontractor for performance of the work required by the subcontract 
or upon completion of the subcontract.
