ACTION: Notice of twenty-second update
of the Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is required to
establish a Federal Agency Hazardous
Waste Compliance Docket (‘‘the
Docket’’) under Section 120(c) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (CERCLA), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986.
Section 120(c) requires EPA to establish
a Docket that contains certain
information reported to EPA by Federal
facilities that manage hazardous waste
or from which a reportable quantity of
hazardous substances have been
released. The Docket is used to identify
Federal facilities that should be
evaluated to determine if they pose a
threat to public health or welfare and
the environment and to provide a
mechanism to make this information
available to the public. CERCLA section
120(c) requires that the Docket be
updated every six months, as new
facilities are reported to EPA by Federal
agencies. EPA publishes a list of newly
reported facilities in the Federal
Register. The Docket contains
information that is submitted by Federal
facilities under the following
authorities: CERCLA 103, and the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA) sections 3005, 3010 and
3016. EPA published the first Docket in
E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM
17AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 159 / Friday, August 17, 2007 / Notices
the Federal Register in 1988 (53 FR
4280).
CERCLA section 120(d) requires that
EPA take steps to assure that a
Preliminary Assessment (PA) be
completed for those sites identified in
the Docket and that the evaluation and
listing of sites with a PA be completed
within a reasonable time frame. The PA
is designed to provide information for
EPA to consider when evaluating the
site for potential response action or
listing on the National Priorities List
(NPL).
Today’s notice identifies the Federal
facilities not previously listed on the
Docket and reported to EPA since the
last update of the Docket (70 FR 61616)
on October 25, 2005, which was current
as of February 4, 2005. In addition to the
list of additions to the Docket, this
notice includes a section with revisions
(that is, corrections and deletions) of the
previous Docket list. This update
contains 13 additions and 2 deletions
since the previous update, as well as
numerous other corrections to the
Docket list. At the time of publication of
this notice, the new total number of
Federal facilities listed on the Docket is
2,293.
DATES: This list is current as of
November 4, 2006.

Introduction
Section 120(c) of the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980
(CERCLA), 42 United States Code
(U.S.C.) 9620(c), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA),
requires the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) to establish the
Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket (‘‘Docket’’). The
Docket contains information on Federal
facilities that is submitted by Federal
VerDate Aug<31>2005

agencies to EPA under sections 3005,
3010, and 3016 of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA),
42 U.S.C. 6925, 6930, and 6937, and
under section 103 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C.
9603. Specifically, RCRA section 3005
establishes a permitting system for
certain hazardous waste treatment,
storage, and disposal (TSD) facilities;
RCRA section 3010 requires waste
generators, transporters and TSD
facilities to notify EPA of their
hazardous waste activities; and RCRA
section 3016 requires Federal agencies
to submit biennially to EPA an
inventory of their Federal hazardous
waste facilities. CERCLA section 103(a)
requires the owner or operators of
vessels or facilities onshore or offshore
to notify the National Response Center
(NRC) of any spill or other release of a
hazardous substance that equals or
exceeds a reportable quantity (RQ), as
defined by CERCLA section 101.
CERCLA section 103(c) requires
facilities that have ‘‘stored, treated, or
disposed of’’ hazardous wastes and
where there is ‘‘known, suspected, or
likely releases’’ of hazardous substances
to report their activities to EPA.
The Docket serves three major
purposes: (1) To identify all Federal
facilities that must be evaluated to
determine whether they pose a risk to
human health and the environment
sufficient to warrant inclusion on the
National Priorities List (NPL); (2) to
compile and maintain the information
submitted to EPA on such facilities
under the provisions listed in section
120(c) of CERCLA; and (3) to provide a
mechanism to make the information
available to the public.
The initial list of Federal facilities to
be included on the Docket was
published on February 12, 1988 (53 FR
4280). Updates of the Docket have been
published on November 16, 1988 (54 FR

3.0
Revisions of the Previous Docket
Following is a discussion of the
additions, deletions, corrections, and
NFRAP status changes to the list of
Docket facilities since the previous
Docket update.
3.1
Additions
ebenthall on PRODPC61 with NOTICES
Deletions
Today, 2 Federal facilities are being
deleted from the Docket. There are no
statutory or regulatory provisions that
address deletion of a facility from the
Docket. However, if a facility is
incorrectly included on the Docket, it
may be deleted from the Docket; this
may be appropriate for a facility for
which there was an incorrect report
submitted for hazardous waste activity
under RCRA (40 CFR 262.44); a facility
that was not Federally-owned or
operated at the time of listing; facilities
included more than once (i.e.,
redundant listings); or when multiple
facilities are combined. Facilities being
deleted no longer will be subject to the
requirements of CERCLA section 120(d).
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:36 Aug 16, 2007
Jkt 211001
Corrections
Changes necessary to correct the
previous Docket were identified by both
EPA and Federal agencies. The
corrections include changes in
addresses or spelling, corrections of the
recorded name and ownership of a
Federal facility, and additional
reporting mechanisms. In addition,
some changes in the names of Federal
facilities were made to establish
consistency in the Docket or between
the Superfund Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability
Information System (CERCLIS) and the
Docket. For each Federal facility for
which a correction has been entered, the
original entry (designated by an ‘‘o’’), as
it appeared in previous Docket updates,
is shown directly below the corrected
entry (designated by a ‘‘c’’) for easy
comparison. Today, information is being
corrected for 11 facilities.
3.4
Today, 13 Federal facilities are being
added to the Docket, primarily because
of new information obtained by EPA (for
example, recent reporting of a facility
pursuant to RCRA sections 3005, 3010,
or 3016 or CERCLA section 103). SARA,
as amended by the Defense
Authorization Act of 1997, specifies that
EPA take steps to assure that a
Preliminary Assessment (PA) be
completed within a reasonable time
frame for those Federal facilities that are
included on the Docket. Among other
things, the PA is designed to provide
information for EPA to consider when
evaluating the site for potential response
action or listing on the NPL.
3.2
3.3
NFRAP Status Changes
Today’s update to the Docket includes
a new chart showing 7 sites with
changes in their NFRAP status. When a
Federal facility listed on the Docket
provides a PA (and if warranted a Site
Inspection (SI)) for a site to EPA, EPA
evaluates the site in accordance with the
Hazard Ranking System (HRS) to
determine whether the site scores
sufficiently high to warrant NPL listing.
If EPA determines that the facility or
site does not pose a threat sufficient to
warrant Superfund action, EPA
typically will designate the site status as
NFRAP under Superfund. An ‘‘N’’ in
this chart designates the site as NFRAP.
4.0 Process for Compiling the Updated
Docket
In compiling the newly reported
Federal facilities for the update being
published today, EPA extracted the
names, addresses, and identification
numbers of facilities from four EPA
databases—Emergency Response
Notification System (ERNS), the
Biennial Inventory of Federal Agency
Hazardous Waste Activities, the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Information System (RCRAInfo), and
CERCLIS—that contain information
about Federal facilities submitted under
the four provisions listed in CERCLA
section 120(c).
EPA assures the quality of the
information on the Docket by
conducting extensive analysis of the
current Docket list with the information
obtained from the databases identified
above to determine which Federal
facilities were, in fact, newly reported
and qualified for inclusion on the
PO 00000
Frm 00027
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
update. EPA is also striving to correct
errors for Federal facilities that were
previously reported. For example, stateowned or privately owned facilities that
are not operated by the Federal
government may have been included.
Such problems are sometimes caused by
procedures historically used to report
and track Federal facilities data. EPA is
working to resolve them.
Representatives of Federal agencies are
asked to write to EPA’s Docket
coordinator at the following address if
revisions of this update information are
necessary: Tim Mott, Federal Agency
Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket
Coordinator, Federal Facilities
Restoration and Reuse Office (Mail Code
5106P), U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20460.
5.0 Facilities Not Included
Certain categories of facilities may not
be included on the Docket, such as: (1)
Federal facilities formerly owned by a
Federal agency that at the time of
consideration are not Federally-owned
or operated; (2) Federal facilities that are
small quantity generators (SQGs) that
have never generated more than 1,000
kg of hazardous waste in any month; (3)
Federal facilities that are solely
transporters, as reported under RCRA
section 3010; and (4) Federal facilities
that have mixed mine or mill site
ownership. An EPA policy issued in
June, 2003 provided guidance for a siteby-site evaluation as to whether ‘‘mixed
ownership’’ mine or mill sites, created
as a result of the General Mining Law of
1872 and never reported under CERCLA
section 103(a), should be included on
the Docket. For purposes of that
guidance, mixed ownership mine or
mill sites are those located partially on
private land and partially on public
land. This guidance is found at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/pdf/
mixownrshpmine.pdf. The guidance for
not including these facilities may
change; facilities now not included may
be added at some point if EPA
determines that they should be
included.
6.0 Facility Status Reporting,
Including NFRAP Status Updates
EPA typically tracks the status of
Federal facilities listed on the Docket.
When a Federal facility listed on the
Docket provides a PA (and if warranted
a Site Inspection (SI)) for a site to EPA,
EPA evaluates the site in accordance
with the HRS to determine whether the
site scores sufficiently high to warrant
NPL listing. If EPA determines that the
facility or site does not pose a threat
sufficient to warrant Superfund action,
E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM
17AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 159 / Friday, August 17, 2007 / Notices
ebenthall on PRODPC61 with NOTICES
EPA typically will designate the site
status as NFRAP under Superfund. A
decision not to take further response/
remedial action under the Superfund
program usually is based on a finding
that there is no significant threat to
human health or the environment, and
EPA would not propose to list the site
on the NPL at that time. If new or
additional information becomes
available suggesting that the site may
warrant further evaluation, EPA will reevaluate the site accordingly. This
decision does not preclude any further
action at the Federal facility or site by
another EPA program, the State or other
Federal agency. Generally, NFRAP
status pertains to sites included in the
CERCLIS Inventory.
When a Federal facility is listed on
the Docket, the FR Notice normally
indicates whether the facility is
currently on the NPL, is not on the NPL,
or it is undecided whether the site will
be on the NPL. Generally, the
designation of ‘‘undecided’’ is used for
sites still being evaluated to determine
if the site warrants NPL listing.
An updated list of the NPL status of
all Docket facilities, as well as their
NFRAP status, is available at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/documents/
docket.htm.
7.0 Information Contained on Docket
Listing
The updated information is provided
in four tables. The first table is a list of
new Federal facilities that are being
added on the Docket. The second is a
list of Federal facilities that are being
deleted from the Docket. The third
contains corrections of information
included on the Docket. Each Federal
facility listed in the update has been
assigned a code(s) that indicates a more
specific reason(s) for the addition,
deletion, or correction. The code key
precedes the lists. The fourth table lists
updates to NFRAP status.
The facilities listed in each table are
organized by state and then grouped
alphabetically within each state by the
Federal agency responsible for the
facility. Under each state heading is
listed the name and address of the
facility, the Federal agency responsible
for the facility, the statutory provision(s)
under which the facility was reported to
EPA, and the code(s).
The statutory provisions under which
a facility reported are listed in a column
titled ’’Reporting Mechanism.’’
Applicable mechanisms are listed for

Jkt 211001
each facility: for example 3010, 3016,
103(c), or Other. ‘‘Other’’ has been
added as a reporting mechanism to
indicate those Federal facilities that
otherwise have been identified to have
releases or threat of releases of
hazardous substances. The National
Contingency Plan 40 CFR 300.405
addresses discovery or notification and
outlines what constitutes discovery of a
hazardous substance release, and states
that a release may be discovered in
several ways, including (1) A report
submitted in accordance with section
103(a) of CERCLA, i.e., reportable

Notification of a release by a Federal or
state permit holder when required by its
permit; (5) Inventory or survey efforts or
random or incidental observation
reported by government agencies or the
public; (6) Submission of a citizen
petition to EPA or the appropriate
Federal facility requesting a preliminary
assessment, in accordance with section
105(d) of CERCLA; (7) A report

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with section
113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended
(‘‘CAA’’ or ‘‘Act’’), 42 U.S.C. 7413(g),
notice is hereby given of a proposed
settlement agreement, to address a
lawsuit filed by the Ingersoll-Rand
Company in the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Ingersoll-Rand Co. v. United States
Environmental Protection Agency, No.
98–1597 (DC Cir.). Ingersoll-Rand’s
petition for review challenges EPA rules
establishing standards for certain
nonroad diesel engines. 63 FR 58967
(Oct. 23, 1998) (so-called Tier III
standards). Under the terms of the
proposed settlement agreement, EPA
has agreed to propose rules (or issue
direct final rules) amending the Tier III
standards to allow certain additional
flexibilities for equipment
manufacturers which are not vertically
integrated with the nonroad diesel
engine manufacturer.
DATES: Written comments on the
proposed settlement agreement must be
received by September 17, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,

On October 23, 1998, EPA issued socalled Tier III standards for nonroad
diesel engines. These standards are
based largely on within-engine controls
of emissions (as opposed to controls
reflecting post-engine, after treatment of
emissions, which are the basis for the
later rules for these same engines
promulgated on June 29, 2004 at 69 Fed.
Reg. 38958). Ingersoll-Rand Co. filed a
timely petition for review in the District
of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals
challenging certain of the Tier III
standards. Under the proposed
settlement agreement decree, EPA
would propose certain amendments to
the Tier III standards, and, if EPA
adopts these (or substantially similar)
amendments, Ingersoll-Rand would
move to dismiss its petition for review.
The amendments relate to providing
increased potential flexibility for
equipment manufacturers which are not
vertically integrated with engine
suppliers if such an equipment
manufacturer demonstrates to EPA that
it is unable to complete redesign of the
equipment within the time required by
the Tier III rule due to technical or
engineering hardship. Specifically, the
equipment manufacturer must show
both that its inability to furnish a
compliant equipment design is due to
the engine supplier, and that the
equipment manufacturer has exhausted
other flexibilities already provided by
the Tier 3 rule. The proposed provision
is modeled after a parallel provision in
the 2004 rules for nonroad diesel
engines (40 CFR 1039.625 (m)), but the
amount of relief would be somewhat
less than is available under that parallel
provision.
For a period of thirty (30) days
following the date of publication of this
notice, the Agency will receive written
comments relating to the proposed
settlement agreement decree from
persons who were not parties or
intervenors to the litigation in question.
EPA or the Department of Justice may
withdraw or withhold consent to the
proposed agreement if the comments
disclose facts or considerations that
indicate that such consent is
inappropriate, improper, inadequate, or
inconsistent with the requirements of
the Act. Unless EPA or the Department
of Justice determines, based on any
PO 00000

comment which may be submitted, that
consent to the settlement agreement
should be withdrawn, the terms of the
agreement will be affirmed.
II. Additional Information About
Commenting on the Proposed
Settlement Agreement

Federal Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of twenty-second update of the Federal Agency Hazardous
Waste Compliance Docket.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to
establish a Federal Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket (``the
Docket'') under Section 120(c) of the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986. Section
120(c) requires EPA to establish a Docket that contains certain
information reported to EPA by Federal facilities that manage hazardous
waste or from which a reportable quantity of hazardous substances have
been released. The Docket is used to identify Federal facilities that
should be evaluated to determine if they pose a threat to public health
or welfare and the environment and to provide a mechanism to make this
information available to the public. CERCLA section 120(c) requires
that the Docket be updated every six months, as new facilities are
reported to EPA by Federal agencies. EPA publishes a list of newly
reported facilities in the Federal Register. The Docket contains
information that is submitted by Federal facilities under the following
authorities: CERCLA 103, and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) sections 3005, 3010 and 3016. EPA published the first Docket in
[[Page 46219]]
the Federal Register in 1988 (53 FR 4280).
CERCLA section 120(d) requires that EPA take steps to assure that a
Preliminary Assessment (PA) be completed for those sites identified in
the Docket and that the evaluation and listing of sites with a PA be
completed within a reasonable time frame. The PA is designed to provide
information for EPA to consider when evaluating the site for potential
response action or listing on the National Priorities List (NPL).
Today's notice identifies the Federal facilities not previously
listed on the Docket and reported to EPA since the last update of the
Docket (70 FR 61616) on October 25, 2005, which was current as of
February 4, 2005. In addition to the list of additions to the Docket,
this notice includes a section with revisions (that is, corrections and
deletions) of the previous Docket list. This update contains 13
additions and 2 deletions since the previous update, as well as
numerous other corrections to the Docket list. At the time of
publication of this notice, the new total number of Federal facilities
listed on the Docket is 2,293.
DATES: This list is current as of November 4, 2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Electronic versions of the Docket and
more information on its implementation can be obtained at https://

1.0 Introduction
Section 120(c) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), 42 United States Code
(U.S.C.) 9620(c), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), requires the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) to establish the Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket (``Docket''). The Docket contains information on
Federal facilities that is submitted by Federal agencies to EPA under
sections 3005, 3010, and 3016 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA), 42 U.S.C. 6925, 6930, and 6937, and under section 103 of
CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9603. Specifically, RCRA section 3005 establishes a
permitting system for certain hazardous waste treatment, storage, and
disposal (TSD) facilities; RCRA section 3010 requires waste generators,
transporters and TSD facilities to notify EPA of their hazardous waste
activities; and RCRA section 3016 requires Federal agencies to submit
biennially to EPA an inventory of their Federal hazardous waste
facilities. CERCLA section 103(a) requires the owner or operators of
vessels or facilities onshore or offshore to notify the National
Response Center (NRC) of any spill or other release of a hazardous
substance that equals or exceeds a reportable quantity (RQ), as defined
by CERCLA section 101. CERCLA section 103(c) requires facilities that
have ``stored, treated, or disposed of'' hazardous wastes and where
there is ``known, suspected, or likely releases'' of hazardous
substances to report their activities to EPA.
The Docket serves three major purposes: (1) To identify all Federal
facilities that must be evaluated to determine whether they pose a risk
to human health and the environment sufficient to warrant inclusion on
the National Priorities List (NPL); (2) to compile and maintain the
information submitted to EPA on such facilities under the provisions
listed in section 120(c) of CERCLA; and (3) to provide a mechanism to
make the information available to the public.
The initial list of Federal facilities to be included on the Docket

3.0 Revisions of the Previous Docket
Following is a discussion of the additions, deletions, corrections,
and NFRAP status changes to the list of Docket facilities since the
previous Docket update.
3.1 Additions
Today, 13 Federal facilities are being added to the Docket,
primarily because of new information obtained by EPA (for example,
recent reporting of a facility pursuant to RCRA sections 3005, 3010, or
3016 or CERCLA section 103). SARA, as amended by the Defense
Authorization Act of 1997, specifies that EPA take steps to assure that
a Preliminary Assessment (PA) be completed within a reasonable time
frame for those Federal facilities that are included on the Docket.
Among other things, the PA is designed to provide information for EPA
to consider when evaluating the site for potential response action or
listing on the NPL.
3.2 Deletions
Today, 2 Federal facilities are being deleted from the Docket.
There are no statutory or regulatory provisions that address deletion
of a facility from the Docket. However, if a facility is incorrectly
included on the Docket, it may be deleted from the Docket; this may be
appropriate for a facility for which there was an incorrect report
submitted for hazardous waste activity under RCRA (40 CFR 262.44); a
facility that was not Federally-owned or operated at the time of
listing; facilities included more than once (i.e., redundant listings);
or when multiple facilities are combined. Facilities being deleted no
longer will be subject to the requirements of CERCLA section 120(d).
3.3 Corrections
Changes necessary to correct the previous Docket were identified by
both EPA and Federal agencies. The corrections include changes in
addresses or spelling, corrections of the recorded name and ownership
of a Federal facility, and additional reporting mechanisms. In
addition, some changes in the names of Federal facilities were made to
establish consistency in the Docket or between the Superfund
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Information System (CERCLIS) and the Docket. For each Federal facility
for which a correction has been entered, the original entry (designated
by an ``o''), as it appeared in previous Docket updates, is shown
directly below the corrected entry (designated by a ``c'') for easy
comparison. Today, information is being corrected for 11 facilities.
3.4 NFRAP Status Changes
Today's update to the Docket includes a new chart showing 7 sites
with changes in their NFRAP status. When a Federal facility listed on
the Docket provides a PA (and if warranted a Site Inspection (SI)) for
a site to EPA, EPA evaluates the site in accordance with the Hazard
Ranking System (HRS) to determine whether the site scores sufficiently
high to warrant NPL listing. If EPA determines that the facility or
site does not pose a threat sufficient to warrant Superfund action, EPA
typically will designate the site status as NFRAP under Superfund. An
``N'' in this chart designates the site as NFRAP.
4.0 Process for Compiling the Updated Docket
In compiling the newly reported Federal facilities for the update
being published today, EPA extracted the names, addresses, and
identification numbers of facilities from four EPA databases--Emergency
Response Notification System (ERNS), the Biennial Inventory of Federal
Agency Hazardous Waste Activities, the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Information System (RCRAInfo), and CERCLIS--that contain
information about Federal facilities submitted under the four
provisions listed in CERCLA section 120(c).
EPA assures the quality of the information on the Docket by
conducting extensive analysis of the current Docket list with the
information obtained from the databases identified above to determine
which Federal facilities were, in fact, newly reported and qualified
for inclusion on the update. EPA is also striving to correct errors for
Federal facilities that were previously reported. For example, state-
owned or privately owned facilities that are not operated by the
Federal government may have been included. Such problems are sometimes
caused by procedures historically used to report and track Federal
facilities data. EPA is working to resolve them. Representatives of
Federal agencies are asked to write to EPA's Docket coordinator at the
following address if revisions of this update information are
necessary: Tim Mott, Federal Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket
Coordinator, Federal Facilities Restoration and Reuse Office (Mail Code
5106P), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20460.
5.0 Facilities Not Included
Certain categories of facilities may not be included on the Docket,
such as: (1) Federal facilities formerly owned by a Federal agency that
at the time of consideration are not Federally-owned or operated; (2)
Federal facilities that are small quantity generators (SQGs) that have
never generated more than 1,000 kg of hazardous waste in any month; (3)
Federal facilities that are solely transporters, as reported under RCRA
section 3010; and (4) Federal facilities that have mixed mine or mill
site ownership. An EPA policy issued in June, 2003 provided guidance
for a site-by-site evaluation as to whether ``mixed ownership'' mine or
mill sites, created as a result of the General Mining Law of 1872 and
never reported under CERCLA section 103(a), should be included on the
Docket. For purposes of that guidance, mixed ownership mine or mill
sites are those located partially on private land and partially on
public land. This guidance is found at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/pdf/
mixownrshpmine.pdf. The guidance for not including these facilities may
change; facilities now not included may be added at some point if EPA
determines that they should be included.
6.0 Facility Status Reporting, Including NFRAP Status Updates
EPA typically tracks the status of Federal facilities listed on the
Docket. When a Federal facility listed on the Docket provides a PA (and
if warranted a Site Inspection (SI)) for a site to EPA, EPA evaluates
the site in accordance with the HRS to determine whether the site
scores sufficiently high to warrant NPL listing. If EPA determines that
the facility or site does not pose a threat sufficient to warrant
Superfund action,
[[Page 46221]]
EPA typically will designate the site status as NFRAP under Superfund.
A decision not to take further response/remedial action under the
Superfund program usually is based on a finding that there is no
significant threat to human health or the environment, and EPA would
not propose to list the site on the NPL at that time. If new or
additional information becomes available suggesting that the site may
warrant further evaluation, EPA will re-evaluate the site accordingly.
This decision does not preclude any further action at the Federal
facility or site by another EPA program, the State or other Federal
agency. Generally, NFRAP status pertains to sites included in the
CERCLIS Inventory.
When a Federal facility is listed on the Docket, the FR Notice
normally indicates whether the facility is currently on the NPL, is not
on the NPL, or it is undecided whether the site will be on the NPL.
Generally, the designation of ``undecided'' is used for sites still
being evaluated to determine if the site warrants NPL listing.
An updated list of the NPL status of all Docket facilities, as well
as their NFRAP status, is available at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/
documents/docket.htm.
7.0 Information Contained on Docket Listing
The updated information is provided in four tables. The first table
is a list of new Federal facilities that are being added on the Docket.
The second is a list of Federal facilities that are being deleted from
the Docket. The third contains corrections of information included on
the Docket. Each Federal facility listed in the update has been
assigned a code(s) that indicates a more specific reason(s) for the
addition, deletion, or correction. The code key precedes the lists. The
fourth table lists updates to NFRAP status.
The facilities listed in each table are organized by state and then
grouped alphabetically within each state by the Federal agency
responsible for the facility. Under each state heading is listed the
name and address of the facility, the Federal agency responsible for
the facility, the statutory provision(s) under which the facility was
reported to EPA, and the code(s).
The statutory provisions under which a facility reported are listed
in a column titled ''Reporting Mechanism.'' Applicable mechanisms are
listed for each facility: for example 3010, 3016, 103(c), or Other.
``Other'' has been added as a reporting mechanism to indicate those
Federal facilities that otherwise have been identified to have releases
or threat of releases of hazardous substances. The National Contingency
Plan 40 CFR 300.405 addresses discovery or notification and outlines
what constitutes discovery of a hazardous substance release, and states
that a release may be discovered in several ways, including (1) A
report submitted in accordance with section 103(a) of CERCLA, i.e.,
reportable quantities codified at 40 CFR part 302; (2) A report
submitted to EPA in accordance with section 103(c) of CERCLA; (3)
Investigation by government authorities conducted in accordance with
section 104(e) of CERCLA or other statutory authority; (4) Notification
of a release by a Federal or state permit holder when required by its
permit; (5) Inventory or survey efforts or random or incidental
observation reported by government agencies or the public; (6)
Submission of a citizen petition to EPA or the appropriate Federal
facility requesting a preliminary assessment, in accordance with
section 105(d) of CERCLA; (7) A report submitted in accordance with
section 311(b)(5) of the Clean Water Act (CWA); and (8) Other sources.
As a policy matter, EPA generally believes it is appropriate for
Federal facilities identified through the CERCLA discovery and
notification process to be included on the Docket.
The complete list of Federal facilities that now make up the Docket
and the NPL and NFRAP status of each are available to interested
parties and can be obtained at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/documents/
docket.htm by clicking on the link for Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket Update #22 or by calling Tim Mott, the EPA HQ Docket
Coordinator at (703) 603-8807. As of today, the total number of Federal
facilities that appear on the Docket is 2,293.
Dated: August 9, 2007.
