Financial Responsibility Requirements 
Under CERCLA Section 108(b) for Facilities in the Electric Power Generation, Transmission, and Distribution Industry; the Petroleum and Coal Products Manufacturing Industry; and the Chemical Manufacturing Industry 
AGENCY : Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA). 
ACTION : Final actions. 
SUMMARY : 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 or enforcement action under CERCLA with respect to any particular facility or industry, and do not affect the Agency’s authorities that may apply to particular facilities under other environmental statutes. This combined final rulemaking comprises the Agency’s final actions on each of the three proposed rules. 
DATES : These final actions are effective 
on January 4, 2021. 
ADDRESSES : EPA has established a 
docket for these actions under Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OLEM–2019–0085, EPA– HQ–OLEM–2019–0086, and EPA–HQ– OLEM–2019–0087. All documents in the docket are listed on the https://www.regulations.gov website. Although 
listed in the index, some information is not publicly available, e.g., Confidential 
Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
