Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 144 / Monday, July 27, 2020 / Proposed Rules
(1) EPA consulted with the State
before developing this Notice of Intent
for Partial Deletion.
(2) EPA has provided the state 30
working days for review of this action
prior to publication of it today.
(3) In accordance with the criteria
discussed above, EPA has determined
that no further response is appropriate.
(4) The State of South Carolina,
through the South Carolina Department
of Health and Environmental Control
has concurred with the deletion of 134acres of the 140-acre Macalloy
Corporation Superfund Site, from the
NPL.
(5) Concurrently, with the publication
of this Notice of Intent for Partial
Deletion in the Federal Register, a
notice is being published in a major
local newspaper, The Charleston Post &
Courier. The newspaper announces the
30-day public comment period
concerning the Notice of Intent for
Partial Deletion of the Site from the
NPL.
(6) The EPA placed copies of
documents supporting the proposed
partial deletion in the deletion docket,
made these items available for public
inspection, and copying at the Site
information repositories identified
above.
If comments are received within the
30-day comment period on this
document, EPA will evaluate and
respond accordingly to the comments
before making a final decision to delete
the 134 acre parcel. If necessary, EPA
will prepare a Responsiveness Summary
to address any significant public
comments received. After the public
comment period, if EPA determines it is
still appropriate to delete 134-acres of
the 140- acre Macalloy Corporation
Superfund Site, the Regional
Administrator will publish a final
Notice of Partial Deletion in the Federal
Register. Public notices, public
submissions and copies of the
Responsiveness Summary, if prepared,
will be made available to interested
parties and included in the site
information repositories listed above.
Deletion of a portion of a site from the
NPL does not itself create, alter, or
revoke any individual’s rights or
obligations. Deletion of a portion of a
site from the NPL does not in any way
alter EPA’s right to take enforcement
actions, as appropriate. The NPL is
designed primarily for informational
purposes and to assist EPA
management. Section 300.425(e)(3) of
the NCP states that the deletion of a site
from the NPL does not preclude
eligibility for future response actions,
should future conditions warrant such
actions.
