Environmental Protection Agency July 20, 2009 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 is issuing a notice of intent to delete Central Wood Preserving Company Superfund Site (Site) located in East Feliciana Parish, Louisiana, from the National Priorities List (NPL) and requests public comments on this proposed action. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an appendix of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). The EPA and the State of Louisiana, through the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other than operation and maintenance and five-year reviews, have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund.
