ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 300
[FRL-4560-5]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan; National Priorities List Update
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of deletion of a site from the National Priorities List.
SUMMARY:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces the deletion of the Waste Research & Reclamation site in Eau Claire, Wisconsin from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan(NCP) which the EPA promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended. EPA and the State of Wisconsin have determined that all appropriate Fund-financed responses under CERCLA have been implemented and that no further CERCLA response action by responsible parties is appropriate; rather, all remaining remedial actions will be performed under the Research Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
EFFECTIVE DATE:
February 5, 1993.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The site to be deleted from the NPL is:
Waste Research & Reclamation Co., Eau Claire, WI.
A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published October 19, 1992 (57 FR 47585). The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was November 18, 1992. EPA received no comments. A Responsiveness Summary is not being prepared because no comments were received. See the October 19, 1992, notice for further information on the site.
The EPA identifies sites which appear to present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the environment and it maintains the NPL as the list of those sites. Sites on the NPL may be the subject of Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund (Fund-) financed remedial actions. Any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-financed remedial actions in the unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such action. Section 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede agency efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
