**National Priorities List, Final Rule No. 52** 

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency.

**ACTION :**  Final Rule.

**SUMMARY :**  The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 ( ‘‘ CERCLA ’’ or ‘‘the Act’’ ), as amended, requires that the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan ( ‘‘ NCP ’’ ) include a list of national priorities among the known releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants throughout the United States. The National Priorities List ( ‘‘ NPL ’’ ) constitutes this list. The NPL is intended primarily to guide the Environmental Protection Agency ( ‘‘EPA ’’ or ‘‘ the Agency ’’ ) in determining which sites warrant further investigation. These further investigations will allow EPA to assess the nature and extent of public health and environmental risks associated withthe site and to determine what CERCLAfinanced remedial action(s), if any, may be appropriate. This rule adds 15 sites to the NPL, all to the General Superfund Section.

**DATES :**  Effective Date: The effective date for this amendment to the NCP is October 17, 2011.
