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

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IX is issuing a Notice of Deletion for the Celtor Chemical Works Superfund Site (Site) located in Hoopa, California, from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL is Appendix B of 40 CFR part 300 which is the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), which EPA promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended. The EPA, Hoopa Valley Tribe and the State of California, through the California Department of Toxic Substances Control, have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund.
