ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-6965-1]
National Oil and Hazardous Substance Pollution Contingency Plan;
National Priorities List
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Proposed notice of intent to delete the Gulf Coast Vacuum
Services Superfund Site from the National Priorities List.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 is issuing
a proposed notice of intent to delete the Gulf Coast Vacuum Services
Superfund Site (Site) located in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana from the
National Priorities List (NPL) and requests public comments on this
notice of intent. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is found at appendix B of 40 CFR part 300
of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan
(NCP). The EPA, with the concurrence of the State of Louisiana, through
the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ), has
determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other
than operation and maintenance and five-year reviews, have been
completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions
under Superfund.
In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of today's Federal
Register, we are publishing a direct final rule of deletion of the Gulf
Coast Vacuum Services Superfund Site 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 rule of deletion. If we
receive no adverse comment(s) on this action, we will not take further
action on this proposed notice of intent to delete. If we receive
adverse comment(s), we will withdraw the direct final rule of deletion
and it will not take effect. We will, as appropriate, address all
public comments in a subsequent final deletion notice based on this
proposed 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 rule of deletion which is located in
the Rules section of this Federal Register.
DATES: Comments concerning this Site must be received by June 21, 2001.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Ms. Janetta Coats,
Community Involvement Coordinator, U.S. EPA (6SF-PO), 1445 Ross Avenue,
