Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final actions.
AGENCY:
EPA (or the Agency) is
finalizing its proposed decisions to not
impose financial responsibility
requirements under section 108(b) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (CERCLA) for facilities in three
industry sectors: The electric power
generation, transmission, and
distribution industry, pursuant to EPA’s
proposal of July 29, 2019; the petroleum
and coal products manufacturing
industry, pursuant to EPA’s proposal of
December 23, 2019; and the chemical
manufacturing industry, pursuant to
EPA’s proposal of February 21, 2020.
Today’s final rulemakings are based on
the individual administrative records
for each of the three proposed
rulemakings, supported by additional
analysis conducted in consideration of
comments received in the public
comment period for each proposed rule.
In particular, after examining the
existing environmental protections and
regulations in place today and analyzing
the Superfund program’s experience
cleaning up sites in each industry, the
Agency concluded that facilities in
these three industries operating under a
modern regulatory framework do not
present a level of risk that warrants
financial responsibility requirements
under CERCLA section 108(b). Today’s
final rulemakings are based on the
record for these rulemakings, and do not
affect EPA’s authority to take a response
SUMMARY:
The final rule is effective on
December 7, 2020.

proposed rules.
DATES: These final actions are effective
