AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION:
Proposed rule; notice of intent.
SUMMARY:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 2 is issuing a Notice of Intent to Delete FMC Dublin Road Superfund Site (Site) located in the Towns of Shelby and Ridgeway, Orleans County, NY, 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 New York, through the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other than operation and maintenance, monitoring and five-year reviews, have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In the "Rules and Regulations" section of today's Federal Register , we are publishing a direct final Notice of Deletion of the FMC Dublin Road 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 Notice of Deletion, and those reasons are incorporated herein. If we receive adverse comment(s) on this deletion action, we will withdraw the direct final Notice of Deletion, and it will not take effect. We will, as appropriate, consider and address all public comments in a subsequent final Notice of Deletion based on this Notice of Intent to Delete, if such action is determined to be appropriate. If so, 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.
