ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[EPA-HQ-SFUND-1989-0008; FRL-9911-20-Region 1]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List: Deletion of the Town Garage/Radio Beacon, 
Superfund Site

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule; notice of intent.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 1 is issuing 
a Notice of Intent to Delete the Town Garage/Radio Beacon, Superfund 
Site (Site) located in Londonderry, New Hampshire 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 an appendix of the National Oil and 
Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). The EPA and the 
State of New Hampshire, through the New Hampshire Department of 
Environmental Services (NHDES), have determined that all appropriate 
response actions under CERCLA, other than five-year reviews, have been 
completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions 
under Superfund.

Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose

consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or email. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site

identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of 
your comment. If you send an email comment directly to EPA without 
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your email address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is 
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you 
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any 
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to 
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.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the http://www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such 
as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only in the hard 
copy. Publicly available docket materials are available either

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' Section of 
today's Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final Notice of 
Deletion of the Town Garage/Radio Beacon Superfund Site from the 
National Priorities List (NPL) 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

[[Page 29149]]

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.
