SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of section 122(i) of the

proposed Administrative Order on Consent (``AOC'') settlement under 
sections 104, 106(a), 107, and 122 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9604, 9606(a), 
9607, and 9622, between EPA and Your Valet Cleaners, Inc. 
(``Respondent'') regarding Your Valet Cleaners' facility (the

is a parcel of land approximately \1/8\ acre in size and is located at 
1501 South Main Street in Bountiful, Davis County, Utah, defined by EPA

Site for Past and Future Response Costs, as those terms are defined in 
the AOC. Respondent is the owner of a parcel of land which has been 
impacted by business operations at the Facility and which lies within 
the defined boundaries of the Site. Under the terms of the proposed 
AOC, Your Valet Cleaners, Inc. agrees to immediately pay $10,000 to EPA 
in settlement of its liability for Past Response Costs incurred at the 
Site, use best efforts to recover (under relevant insurance policies) 
funds to reimburse additional Past Response Costs of $46,031.93, and to 
pay Future Response Costs EPA incurs in overseeing the work Respondent 
has agreed to perform under the AOC. In exchange, Respondent will be 
granted covenants not to sue under sections 106 and 107(a) of CERCLA, 
42 U.S.C. 9606 and 9607(a), in regards to reimbursement of Past and 
Future Response Costs.
    Opportunity for Comment: For thirty (30) days following the date of 
publication of this notice, the Agency will consider all comments 
received on the Payment of Response Costs portion of the Settlement 
only (Section XV) and may modify or withdraw its consent to that 
portion of the AOC, if comments received disclose facts or 
considerations which indicate that the settlement is inappropriate, 
improper, or inadequate. The Agency's response to any comments received 
will be available for public inspection at the EPA Superfund Record 
Center, 1595 Wynkoop Street, 2nd Floor, in Denver, Colorado.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before February 20, 2007.
