ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 300

[FRL-7792-9]


National Oil and Hazardous Substance Pollution Contingency Plan; 
National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of intent to delete the Ralph Gray Trucking Company 
Superfund Site from the National Priorities List.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IX is issuing 
a notice of intent to delete Ralph Gray Trucking Company Superfund Site 
(Site) located in Westminster, California, from the National Priorities 
List (NPL) and requests public comments on this notice of intent. The 
NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 
1980, as amended, is found at Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300, which is 
the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan 
(NCP). The EPA and the State of California, through the California 
Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), have determined that all 
appropriate response actions under CERCLA have been completed. However, 
this deletion does not preclude future actions under CERCLA.
    In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of today's Federal 
Register, we are publishing a direct final notice of deletion of Ralph 
Gray Trucking Company Superfund Site without prior notice of intent to 
delete because we view this as a noncontroversial revision and 
anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for this 
deletion in the preamble to the direct

final deletion. If we receive no adverse comment(s) on this notice of 
intent to delete or the direct final notice of deletion, we will not 
take further action on this notice of intent to delete. If we receive 
adverse comment(s), we will withdraw the direct final notice of 
deletion and it will not take effect. We will, as appropriate, address 
all public comments in a subsequent final deletion notice based on this 
notice of intent to delete. We will not institute a second comment 
period on this notice of intent to delete. Any parties interested in 
commenting must do so at this time. For additional information, see the 
direct final notice of deletion which is located in the rules section 
of this Federal Register.

DATES: Comments concerning this Site must be received by August 30, 
2004.
