ACTION: Notice of deletion of the Witco Chemical Corporation Superfund Site from the National Priorities List (NPL).
SUMMARY:

A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published November 18, 1993 (58 FR 60825). The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was December 17, 1993. EPA received no comments and therefore has not prepared a Responsiveness Summary.
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. Section 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that Fund-financed actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL in the unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such action. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede agency efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
