PROPOSED RULECOMMENTS CLOSED SEPTEMBER 21, 2026

Proposed Deletion From the National Priorities List

Environmental Protection Agency

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is issuing a Notice of Intent to partially delete three sites from the National Priorities List (NPL) and requests public comments on this proposed action. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an appendix of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). The EPA and the applicable states, through their designated state agency, have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund.
