ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[EPA-HQ-SFUND-1983-0002; FRL-9997-48-Region 5]


National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List: Deletion of the Duell & Gardner Landfill 
Superfund Site

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule; notification of intent.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 5 is issuing 
a Notice of Intent to Delete the Duell & Gardner Landfill Superfund 
Site (Duell & Gardner Site) located in Dalton Township, Muskegon 
County, Michigan, 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 Michigan, through the 
Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (MDEGLE), 
have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, 
other than operation and maintenance, monitoring and five-year reviews, 
have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future 
actions under Superfund.

DATES: Comments must be received by August 30, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID no. EPA-HQ-
SFUND-1983-0002, by mail to Randolph Cano, NPL Deletion Coordinator, 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 (SR-6J), 77 West Jackson 
Boulevard, Chicago, IL 60604. Comments may also be submitted 
electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following the 
detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule 
located in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this issue of the 
Federal Register.

Coordinator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 (SR-6J), 77

at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' Section in 
this issue of the Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final 
Notice of Deletion of the Duell & Gardner Site without prior Notice of 
Intent to Delete because EPA views 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 and Regulations'' section of this 
Federal Register.
