SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The site to

be deleted from the NPL is: Waste

Disposal Engineering Inc. Site located in

Andover, Minnesota. A Notice of Intent

to Delete for this site was published

March 26, 1996 (61 FR 13131). The

closing date for comments on the Notice

of intent to Delete was April 26, 1996.

EPA received no comments and

therefore no Responsiveness Summary

was prepared.

The EPA identifies sites which appear

to present a significant risk to public

health, welfare, or the environment and

it maintains the NPL as the list of those

sites. Sites on the NPL may be the

subject of Hazardous Substance

Response Trust Fund (Fund-) financed

remedial actions. Any site deleted from

the NPL remains eligible for Fundfinanced remedial actions in the

unlikely event that conditions at the site

warrant such action. Section

300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that

Fund-financed actions may be taken at

sites deleted from the NPL in the

unlikely event that conditions at the site

warrant such action. Deletion of a site

from the NPL does not affect responsible

party liability or impede agency efforts

to recover costs associated with

response efforts.
