Notice of Proposed Administrative

Settlement; Lorentz Barrel and Drum

Superfund Site

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency.

ACTION: Notice; Request for public

comment.

SUMMARY: In accordance with Section

122(i)(1) of the Comprehensive

Environmental Response, Compensation

and Liability Act of 1980, as amended

(‘‘CERCLA,’’ commonly referred to as

Superfund), 42 U.S.C. 9622(i) and

Section 7003(d) of the Resource

Conservation and Recovery Act, as

amended (‘‘RCRA’’), 42 U.S.C. § 6973,

notice is hereby given of a proposed cost

recovery administrative settlement

concerning the Lorentz Barrel and Drum

Superfund Site in San Jose, California

(the ‘‘Site’’). The United States

Environmental Protection Agency

(‘‘EPA’’) is proposing to enter into a de

minimis settlement pursuant to Section

122(g)(4) of CERCLA. This proposed

settlement is intended to resolve the

liabilities under CERCLA and RCRA of

88 de minimis parties for all past and

future response costs associated with

the Lorentz Barrel and Drum Site. The

names of the settling parties are listed

below in the Supplementary

Information section. These 88 parties

collectively have agreed to pay

$1,853,545.51 to EPA and $1,273,062.71

to the California Department of Toxic

Substances Control (‘‘California DTSC’’).

EPA is entering into this agreement

under the authority of Section 122(g)(4)

of CERCLA. Section 122(g) authorizes

early settlements with de minimis

parties to allow them to resolve their

liabilities at Superfund sites without

incurring substantial transaction costs.

A de minimis party is one that

contributed a minimal amount of

hazardous substances to a site in

comparison to other hazardous

substances at a site, and contributed

hazardous substances that are not

significantly more toxic or of

significantly greater hazardous effect

than other hazardous substances at a

site. Under the authority granted by

Section 122(g), EPA proposes to settle

with 88 potentially responsible parties

at the Lorentz Barrel and Drum

Superfund Site, each of whom is

responsible for no more than one

percent of the barrels or drums that may

have contained hazardous substances

sent to the Site, as reflected on the

waste-in list developed by EPA.

De minimis settling parties will be

required to pay their allocated share of

all part response costs and the estimated

future response costs at the Lorentz

Barrel and Drum Site, including all

federal and state response costs, and a

premium to cover the risks of remedy

failure and cost overruns. Fifteen of the

settling de minimis parties were parties

to earlier settlements with EPA in which

they conducted cleanup work at the

Site. EPA has calculated the value of the

prior settlors’ work and has arrived at an

equitable amount which the 15 prior

settlors have agreed to pay in this

settlement to resolve their liabilities to

EPA and the California DTSC for the

Site.

EPA may withdraw or withhold its

consent to this settlement if comments

received during the 30 day public

comment period disclose facts or

considerations which indicate the

proposed settlement is inappropriate,

improper, or inadequate.

DATES: Pursuant to Section 122(i)(1) of

CERCLA and Section 7003(d) of RCRA,

EPA will receive written comments

relating to this proposed settlement for

thirty (30) days following the date of

publication of this Notice. If EPA

receives a request for a public hearing

within thirty (30) days following the

date of publication of this Notice,

pursuant to Section 7003(d) of RCRA,

EPA will hold a public hearing to afford

the public an opportunity to comment

on the proposed settlement.

ADDRESSES: Comments and requests for

a public hearing should be addressed to

the Docket Clerk, U.S. EPA Region IX

(RC–1), 75 Hawthorne Street, San

Francisco, CA 94105 and should refer

to: Lorentz Barrel and Drum Superfund

Site, San Jose, California, U.S. EPA

Docket No. 95–01. A copy of the

proposed Administrative Order on

Consent may be obtained from the
