SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The site to be deleted from the NPL is: Waste Disposal Engineering Inc. Site located in Andover, Minnesota. A Notice of Intent to Delete for this site was published March 26, 1996 (61 FR 13131). The closing date for comments on the Notice of intent to Delete was April 26, 1996. EPA received no comments and therefore no Responsiveness Summary was prepared.

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 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.
