[FRL-4786-3]
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; National Priorities List Update
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of deletion of the Aidex Corporation Site from the National Priorities List (NPL).
SUMMARY:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region VII announces the deletion of the Aidex Corporation Site in Glenwood, Iowa, from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan (NCP), which 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 Iowa have determined that all appropriate Fund-financed responses under CERCLA have been implemented and that no further cleanup by reponsible parties is appropriate. Moreover, EPA and the State of Iowa have determined that remedial actions conducted at the site, to date, have been protective of public health, welfare, and the environment.

October 21, 1993.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The site to be deleted from the NPL is: Aidex Corporation Superfund Site, Glenwood, Iowa.
A notice of intent to delete for this site was published in the Federal Register August 12, 1993 (58 FR 42916). The closing date for comments on the notice of intent was September 13, 1993. EPA received no comments on the proposed deletion. Therefore, no responsiveness summary was prepared.
Based on a review of monitoring and other data for the site, EPA in consultation with the State of Iowa, has determined that the site does not pose a significant risk to human health or the environment. The site shall continue to be monitored by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR). EPA and IDNR will review the groundwater monitoring as part of each five-year review.
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 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 provides that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL when conditions warrant. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede EPA efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
