Act

ACTION: Notice; request for public
comment.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act of 1980, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’),
42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq., and the authority
of the Attorney General of the United
States to compromise and settle claims
of the United States, notice is hereby
given of a proposed administrative
settlement resolving, subject to
reservations and limitations, liability
that owners of the St. Joe Chat Pile and
of the underlying property located in
Ottawa County, Oklahoma, might
otherwise incur under CERCLA Sections
106 or 107, 42 U.S.C. 9606, or 9607,
arising from the sale of chat on the
property in question. The settlement is
entered into by the United States on
behalf of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA).
Chat is a gravel-like mine refuse or
mine tailings that is generally
contaminated with the hazardous
substances lead, cadmium and zinc.
Approximately 49 million cubic yards
of chat, including the St. Joe Pile,
pollute the Tar Creek Superfund Site
(Site). The Site is located in an
approximately 40-square-mile area in
northern Ottawa County, Oklahoma.
The Site was mined for lead and zinc
ore from the late 1800’s through the
early 1970’s, and chat is part of the
waste material left behind by the mining
and milling activity. EPA has
determined that one of the best ways to
address contaminated chat piles on the
Site is to sell and remove the chat for
use in a manner that will not present a
threat to human health or to the
environment. Sale and removal of the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
chat will reduce the costs of additional
response actions for the Site. The
purpose of this Settlement Agreement is
to encourage the sale of the chat in the
St. Joe Chat Pile, by resolving certain
liabilities of those with interests in the
chat or in the property containing the
chat, thereby helping free the chat for
sale.
Under the settlement, settlors (chat
owners and property owners) agree to
execute an agreement for the sale of the
chat pile (if they own an interest in the
chat), to provide access, and to refrain
from activities that would inhibit sales.
The settlement also includes settlors’
agreement not to sue the United States
regarding any direct or indirect claim
for reimbursement from the EPA
Hazardous Substance Superfund
pursuant to Internal Revenue Code, 26
U.S.C. 9507, through CERCLA Sections
106(b)(2), 111, 112, and 113, any claim
under CERCLA Sections 107 or 113, or
under any citizen suit provision of
CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9659, the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, 42
U.S.C. 6972, the Clean Air Act, 42
U.S.C. 7604, the Clean Water Act, 33
U.S.C. 1365, or any other similar statues
or other applicable environmental laws.
In return, subject to reservations and
limitations, the United States covenants
not to sue or take civil judicial or
administrative action against the settlors
pursuant to Sections 106 and 107 of
CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9606, and 9607, or
other applicable law, for liability of
response actions and/or claims for
natural resource damages arising from
the sale of the chat.
For thirty (30) days following the date
of publication of this notice, the Agency
will receive written comments relating
to the settlement. The Agency will
consider all comments received and
may modify or withdraw its consent to
the settlement if comments received
disclose facts or considerations which
indicate that the settlement is
inappropriate, improper, or inadequate.
The Agency’s response to any comments
received will be available for public
inspection at 1445 Ross Avenue, Dallas,
Texas 75202–2733.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before April 9, 2007.
ADDRESSES: The proposed settlement
and additional background information
relating to the settlement are available
for public inspection at 1445 Ross
Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75202–2733. A

Certain New Chemicals; Receipt and Status Information
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

and/or data that you used.
v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at the estimate.
vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and
suggested alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
