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

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 announces its direct final action to delete the D.L. Mud, Inc., Superfund Site (Site), located in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, from the National Priorities List (NPL) and requests public comments on this deletion. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to Section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is Appendix B of 40 CFR Part 300, which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). This direct final action to delete is being taken by EPA with the concurrence of the State of Louisiana, through the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) because EPA has determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA have been completed and that the Site poses no significant threat to public health or the environment and, therefore, further remedial action pursuant to CERCLA is not appropriate.
