AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of deletion of Beulah Landfill Site from the National

(NPL). The NPL constitutes Appendix B of 40 CFR

[[Page 33856]]

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 (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. EPA and the Florida 
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) have determined that the 
Site poses no significant threat to public health or the environment 
and therefore, further response measures pursuant to CERCLA are not 
appropriate.

DATES: Effective June 22, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Comprehensive information on this Site is available through 
the EPA Region 4 public docket, which is available for viewing at the 
information repositories at two locations. Locations, contacts, phone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA announces the deletion of the Beulah 
Landfill Superfund Site in Pensacola, Escambia County, Florida from the 
NPL, which constitutes Appendix B of the NCP, 40 CFR part 300. EPA 
identifies sites on the NPL that appear to present a significant risk 
to public health, welfare, or the environment. Sites on the NPL may be 
the subject of remedial actions financed by the Hazardous Substances 
Superfund Response Trust Fund (Fund). Pursuant to section 300.425(e)(3) 
of the NCP, any site deleted from the NPL remains eligible for Fund-
financed Remedial Actions if conditions at the site warrant such 
action. EPA published a Notice of Intent to Delete the Beulah Landfill 
Superfund Site from the NPL on April 24, 1998 in the Federal Register, 
(63 FR 20361-20362). EPA received no comments on the proposed deletion; 
therefore, no responsiveness summary is necessary for attachment to 
this Notice of Deletion. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not 
affect the responsible party liability or impede agency efforts to 
recover costs associated with response efforts.
