ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[EPA-HQ-SFUND-1986-0008, Notice 3; FRL-8578-8]

 
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of intent to delete the Double Eagle Refinery Site from 
the National Priorities List.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 is issuing 
a Notice of Intent to Delete the Double Eagle Refinery Co. Superfund 
Site (Site) located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, 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 found at Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 
which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution 
Contingency Plan (NCP). The EPA and the State of Oklahoma, through the 
Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ), 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.

DATES: Comments concerning the proposed deletion of this Site from the 
NPL must be received by July 14, 2008.

SFUND-1989-0008, Notice 3, by one of the following methods:

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-SFUND-
1989-0008, Notice 3. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be 
included in the public docket without change and may be made available 
online at http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal 
information provided, unless the comment includes information claimed 
to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information 
that you consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://
www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site

your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without 
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is 
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you 
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any 
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to 
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the http://
www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
today's Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final Notice of 
Deletion of the Double Eagle Refinery Co. Superfund Site without prior 
Notice of Intent to Delete because we view this as a noncontroversial 
revision and anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our 
reasons for this deletion in the preamble to the direct final deletion. 
If we receive no adverse comment(s) on this Notice of Intent to Delete 
or the direct final Notice of Deletion, we will not take further action 
on this Notice of Intent to Delete. If we receive adverse comment(s), 
we will withdraw the direct final Notice of Deletion, and it will not 
take effect. We will, as appropriate, address all public comments in a 
subsequent final deletion notice based on this Notice of Intent to 
Delete. We will not institute a second comment period on this Notice of 
Intent to Delete. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at 
this time.
    For additional information see the direct final Notice of Deletion 
located in the Rules section of this Federal Register.
