Superfund Site.

SUMMARY: Notification is hereby given of a proposed administrative 
agreement concerning certain remedial activities at the South 
Minneapolis Residential Soil Contamination hazardous waste site in 
Minneapolis, Minnesota (the ``Site''). EPA proposes to enter into this 
agreement under the authority of sections 122, 106 and 107 of the

the U.S. Department of Justice. The proposed agreement has been 
executed by Open Arms of Minnesota (the ``Settling Party'').
    Under the proposed agreement, the Settling Party, which represents 
that it is a Bona Fide Prospective Purchaser under CERCLA, would 
perform the remedial actions required under EPA's September 5, 2008 
Record of Decision for the Settling Party's properties at 2514 and 2518 
Bloomington Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Settling Party 
would also pay EPA's costs of overseeing these actions.
    For thirty days following the date of publication of this notice, 
EPA will receive written comments relating to this proposed agreement. 
EPA will consider all comments received and may decide not to enter 
this proposed agreement if comments disclose facts or considerations 
which indicate that the proposed agreement is inappropriate, improper 
or inadequate.
