National Oil and Hazardous Substance Pollution Contingency Plan National Priorities List, 73538-73539 [2014-29031]

Download as PDF 73538 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 238 / Thursday, December 11, 2014 / Proposed Rules tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS • does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104–4); • does not have Federalism implications as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999); • is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); • is not a significant regulatory action subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001); • is not subject to the requirements of Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act; and • does not provide the EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land in Washington except for as specifically noted below and is also not approved to apply in any other area in Washington where EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country where the SIP does not apply, the rule does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law. Washington’s SIP is approved to apply to non-trust land within the exterior boundaries of the Puyallup Indian Reservation, also known as the 1873 Survey Area. Under the Puyallup Tribe of Indians Settlement Act of 1989, 25 U.S.C. 1773, Congress explicitly provided state and local agencies in Washington authority over activities on non-trust lands within the 1873 Survey Area. Consistent with EPA policy, the EPA provided a consultation opportunity to the Puyallup Tribe in a letter dated September 8, 2014. The EPA did not receive a request for consultation. Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq. Dated: November 14, 2014. Dennis J. McLerran, Regional Administrator, Region 10.

Proposed rule; withdrawal. ACTION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:28 Dec 10, 2014 Jkt 235001 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is withdrawing its May 10, 1993 proposal to add the ASARCO, Inc. (Globe Plant) site in Denver, Colorado to the Superfund National Priorities List (NPL) because the site is being deferred to the State of Colorado. The majority of the cleanup work at this site has been completed under state oversight. An enforceable agreement is in place to complete the cleanup and maintain the remedy, which will be protective of human health and the environment. SUMMARY: The proposed rule to add the ASARCO Inc. (Globe Plant) site to the NPL published at 58 FR 27507 (May 10, 1993) is withdrawn effective December 11, 2014. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Terry Jeng, phone: (703) 603–8852, email: jeng.terry@epa.gov, Site Assessment and Remedy Decisions Branch, Assessment and Remediation Division, Office of Superfund Remediation and Technology Innovation (Mailcode 5204P), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20460. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ASARCO, Inc. (Globe Plant) site was proposed for addition to the NPL on May 10, 1993. Since that time the State of Colorado has been overseeing the remediation of the site under a Consent Decree with ASARCO, Inc. The remedy is nearing completion and redevelopment of the site, which will support long-term maintenance of the remedy, is imminent. Therefore, consistent with the EPA’s November 2002 policy ‘‘Guidelines for Withdrawing a Proposal to List a Site on the NPL (De-proposal)’’ https://www.epa. gov/superfund/sites/npl/hrsres/policy/ dprop.pdf the ASARCO, Inc. (Globe Plant) site’s 1993 proposal to list is being withdrawn. Please refer to Docket ID Number EPA–HQ–SFUND–1993–0003 for supporting documentation regarding this action. The following outlines the basis for this withdrawal: 1. There are no further Fund-financed response actions necessary at this site. This site has been deferred to the State of Colorado. Completion of the remedy and long-term maintenance is being conducted under a State of Colorado Consent Decree. 2. EPA Region 8 conducted a reassessment of the site to evaluate current conditions. The site reassessment report, approved on July 2, 2014, found that the site no longer poses DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 73539 a significant threat to public health or the environment. 3. Future land use has been restricted through an environmental covenant so that no residential development can occur. 4. The planned redevelopment of the site into an industrial park will provide additional protections to public health and the environment by ensuring the long-term maintenance of the remedy.
