Ward Transformer Superfund Site Notice of Prospective Purchaser
Agreement Raleigh, Wake County, NC

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of proposed settlement.

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

SUMMARY: Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act (CERCLA), the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) proposes to enter into a ``Prospective Purchaser
Agreement'' (P.A.) concerning property that has been potentially
contaminated by releases from the Ward Transformer Superfund Site (Ward
Site) in Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina (P.A. Property). EPA
proposes to enter into the P.A. with Brier Creek Commons LP (Brier
Creek LP). The P.A. obligates Brier Creek LP to cooperate fully with
any response action EPA may take on the P.A. Property. The P.A.
resolves Brier Creek LP's potential liability for the Existing
Contamination at the Ward Site and/or the P.A. Property which may
otherwise result from it obtaining an easement across the P.A. Property
and constructing a roadway. This protection is contingent upon Brier
Creek LP fulfilling its obligations under the P.A. EPA will consider
public comments on the proposed settlement for thirty (30) days.
    EPA may withdraw from or modify the proposed settlement should such
comments disclose facts or considerations which indicate the proposed
settlement is inappropriate, improper or inadequate. Copies of the
proposed settlement are available from: Ms. Paula V. Bachelor, Waste
Management Division, U.S. EPA, Region 4, Atlanta Federal Center, 61
Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, Georgia 30303-3104, 404/562-8887.
    Written comments may be submitted to Ms. Bachelor at the address
noted above within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of this
publication.

    Dated: December 27, 2000.
James T. Miller,
Acting Chief, CERCA Program Services Branch, Waste Management Division.
