to the Science Applications International Corporation (``SAIC''), of

business information (``CBI'') submitted to EPA Region 9.

Notice of Required Determinations, Contract Provisions, and
Opportunity 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 a contract, No. GS-10F-0076J, delivery order No. 0906,
with SAIC for Superfund Enforcement Support (``SES-2''). These services
will be provided to EPA by SAIC and its subcontractors: 2nd Shift Lift
Services of Lakewood, CA; Jonas and Associates, Inc. of Martinez, CA;
Mobile Mini Inc. of Rialto, CA; PPC Land Consultants, Inc. of Dixon,
CA; McDonald Associates of Seiad Valley, CA. EPA has determined that
disclosure of CBI to SAIC employees, and its subcontractors' employees,
is necessary in order that SAIC may carry out the work required by that
contract with EPA. The information EPA intends to disclose includes
submissions made by Potentially Responsible Parties to EPA in
accordance with EPA's enforcement activities at Superfund sites. The
information would be disclosed to the contractor and its subcontractor
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 contract complies with all requirements of 40 CFR 2.310(h)(2). EPA
Region 9 will require that each SAIC employee and subcontractor
employee 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) shall 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) shall 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 SAIC and its subcontractors for performance of
the work required by the contract or upon completion of the contract or
subcontract.
Dated: August 19, 2004.
Keith Takata,
Director, Superfund Division, EPA Region 9.
