SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Additional Information About the Proposed Settlement Agreement

    Notice is hereby given of a Proposed Settlement Agreement and 
Administrative Order, Docket No. CERC-03-2009-0076CR, among the United 
States Environmental Protection Agency, Fuller Investments, Inc. and 
the Town of Coeburn, that has been approved, subject to public comment, 
pursuant to Section 122(h)(1) of CERCLA. The Proposed Settlement 
Agreement was signed by the Director of the Hazardous Site Cleanup 
Division, EPA Region III, on August 5, 2009. The Proposed Settlement 
Agreement provides for recovery of $185,000.00 from Fuller Investments, 
Inc., which represents approximately 7.11% of the $2,600,864.50 in 
costs incurred by EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice on behalf of 
EPA in connection with the Site. The Town of Coeburn will not make any 
payment, but will be required to impose institutional controls at the 
Site and to maintain the remedy at the Site.
    The Environmental Protection Agency will receive written comments 
on the Proposed Settlement Agreement for a period of thirty (30) days 
from the date of publication of this Notice. EPA or the Department of 
Justice may withdraw or withhold consent to the Proposed Settlement 
Agreement if the comments disclose facts or considerations that 
indicate that such consent is inappropriate, improper, inadequate, or 
inconsistent with the requirements of CERCLA. Unless EPA or the 
Department of Justice determines, based on any comments which may be 
submitted, that consent to the Proposed Settlement Agreement should be 
withdrawn, the terms of the agreement will be affirmed.
