ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-6525-1]


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

AGENCY:  Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION:  Proposed deletion of the Katonah Municipal Well site from the 
National Priorities List.

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

SUMMARY:  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to delete 
the Katonah Municipal Well site (Site), which is located in the Town of 
Bedford, Westchester County, New York, from the National Priorities 
List (NPL) and requests public comment on this action. The NPL 
constitutes appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 which is the National Oil and 
Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), which EPA 
promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental 
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) as amended, 
42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq. EPA and the New York State Department of 
Environmental Conservation have determined that the Site poses no 
significant threat to public health or the environment, as defined by 
CERCLA; and therefore, further remedial measures pursuant to CERCLA are 
not appropriate.
    We are publishing a direct final action along with this proposed 
deletion without prior proposal notice because the Agency views this as 
a noncontroversial revision and anticipates no significant adverse or 
critical comments. A detailed rationale for this approval is set forth 
in the direct final rule. If no significant adverse or critical 
comments are received, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA 
receives significant adverse or critical comments, the direct final 
action will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The 
EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested 
in commenting should do so at this time.

DATES:  Comments concerning this Action must be received by February 
18, 2000.

ADDRESSES:  Comments should be submitted to Damian J. Duda, Remedial 
Project Manager, Emergency and Remedial Response Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region II, 290 Broadway, 20th Floor,
