ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[EPA-HQ-SFUND-1983-0002, Notice 4; FRL-8579-5]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan 
National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of intent to delete the Old Inger Oil Refinery Superfund 
site from the National Priorities List.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 is issuing 
a Notice of Intent to Delete the Old Inger Oil Refinery Superfund Site 
(Site) located near Darrow, Ascension Parish, Louisiana, from the 
National Priorities List (NPL) and requests public comments on this 
proposed action. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act 
(CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is found at Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 
which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution 
Contingency Plan (NCP). The EPA and the State of Louisiana, through the 
Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ), have determined 
that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other than 
operation and maintenance and five-year reviews, have been completed. 
However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under 
Superfund.

DATES: Comments concerning the proposed deletion of this Site from the 
NPL must be received by July 14, 2008.

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information 
that you consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site

automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is

submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any

technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' Section of 
today's Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final Notice of 
Deletion of Old Inger Oil Refinery Superfund Site without prior Notice 
of Intent to Delete because we view this as a noncontroversial revision 
and anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for 
this deletion in the preamble to the direct final Notice of Deletion, 
and those reasons are incorporated herein. If we receive no adverse 
comment(s) on this deletion action, we will not take further action on 
this Notice of Intent to Delete. If we receive adverse comment(s), we 
will withdraw the direct final Notice of Deletion, and it will not take 
effect. We will, as appropriate, address all public comments in a 
subsequent final Notice of Deletion based on this Notice of Intent to 
Delete. We will not institute a second comment period on this Notice of 
Intent to Delete. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at 
this time.
    For additional information, see the direct final Notice of Deletion 
which is located in the Rules section of this Federal Register.
