[EPA-R04-SFUND-2011-0749; FRl-9620-1]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List: Deletion of the Martin-Marietta/Sodyeco 
Superfund Site

AGENCY: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 4 announces 
the deletion of the Martin-Marietta/Sodyeco Superfund Site (Site) 
located at 11701 Mount Holly Road in Charlotte, North Carolina, from 
the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL, promulgated pursuant to 
section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, 
and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an appendix of the 
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). 
The EPA and the State of North Carolina, through the Department of 
Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), have determined that all 
appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other than operation, 
maintenance, and five-year reviews, have been completed. However, this 
deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund.

DATES: Effective Date: This action is effective January 20, 2012.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket 
Identification No. EPA-R04-SFUND-2011-0749. All documents in the docket 
are listed on the http://www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: 
Martin-Marietta/Sodyeco Superfund Site (Site) located at 11701 Mount 
Holly Road in Charlotte, North Carolina. A Notice of Intent to Delete 
for this Site was published in the Federal Register on November 18, 
2011.
    The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was 
December 17, 2011. No public comments were received during the comment 
period. Therefore a responsiveness summary was not prepared and placed 
in the docket, EPA-R04-SFUND-2011-0749, on www.regulations.gov, or in 
the local repositories listed above.
    EPA maintains the NPL as the list of sites that appear to present a 
significant risk to public health, welfare, or the environment. 
Deletion from the NPL does not preclude further remedial action. 
Whenever there is a significant release from a site deleted from the 
NPL, the deleted site may be restored to the NPL without application of 
the hazard ranking system. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not 
affect responsible party liability in the unlikely event that future 
conditions warrant further actions.
