SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Site is 

comprised of a former duplex 

residential building (demolished by the 

Settling PRPs during the removal action) 

located at 800 S. Carpenter Avenue, Iron 

Mountain (Dickenson County), 

Michigan. The Site is located in a 

residential neighborhood. At the time of 

the removal action, the Site building 

was owned by Settling Party Church 

and leased to Settling Party Salvation 

Army for use as housing for indigent 

people. In October 2008, the residents of 

the building discovered a 1 gallon 

gasoline container full of elemental 

mercury in the basement of the duplex 

residential building. The residents at the 

Site caused a release of the mercury. 

After initial response from local law 

enforcement and fire departments, EPA 

was contacted and began emergency 

response procedures, especially 

involving tracking and screening the 

potential spread of the Site mercury to 

nearby locations. Under EPA direction

and oversight, Settling Party Salvation 

Army implemented a removal action at 

the Site to address the principal release 

of mercury. At the conclusion of this 

activity, Settling Party Church 

demolished the duplex residential 

building at the Site. EPA issued a 

June 21, 2010 Demand Letter to Settling 

Parties. Between June and December 

2010, EPA and Settling Parties 

negotiated the present proposed 

Administrative Settlement.

The proposed consent decree requires 

that no later than December 15, 2011,
