AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of deletion of the Cedartown Industries, Inc. Superfund
site from the National Priorities List.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA announces the deletion of the Cedartown Industries,
Inc. Site in Cedartown, Polk County, Georgia from the National
Priorities List (NPL). The NPL constitutes Appendix B of the National
Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), 40 CFR

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended. EPA and the State of Georgia have
determined that the Site poses no significant threat to public health
or the environment and, therefore, no further remedial measures
pursuant to CERCLA are appropriate.
DATES: Effective Date: This rule will be effective September 19, 2006.

Identification No. EPA-R04-SFUND-2006-0385. All documents in the docket

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to be deleted from the NPL is:
Cedartown Industries, Inc., Cedartown, Polk County, Georgia. A Notice
of Intent to Delete for this Site was published in the Federal Register
on May 26, 2006. (Document ID EPA--FRDOC--0001-1161).
The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was
June 25, 2006. No comments were received; therefore, EPA has not
prepared a Responsiveness Summary. EPA identifies sites that appear to
present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the
environment and it maintains the NPL as the list of those sites. Any
site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-financed remedial
actions in the unlikely event that conditions at the site warrant such
action. Section 300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that Fund-financed
actions may be taken at sites deleted from the NPL. Deletion of a site
from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability or impede
agency efforts to recover costs associated with response efforts.
