SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region II is issuing
a Notice of Intent to Delete the W.R. Grace & Co., Inc./Wayne Interim
Storage (USDOE) Superfund Site located at 868 Black Oak Ridge Road,
Wayne Township, NJ 07470, from the National Priorities List (NPL) and

pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an
appendix of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution

Department of Environmental Protection, have determined that all
appropriate response actions under CERCLA, have been completed.
However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under
Superfund.

Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID no. EPA-HQ-SFUND-

provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or email. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site

identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of
your comment. If you send an email comment directly to EPA without
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your email address will be
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of
any defects or viruses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' Section of
today's Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final Notice of
Deletion of W.R. Grace & Co., Inc./Wayne Interim Storage (USDOE)

this as a noncontroversial revision and anticipate no adverse comment.
We have explained our reasons for this deletion in the preamble to the
direct
[[Page 50070]]
final Notice of Deletion, and those reasons are incorporated herein. If
we receive no adverse comment(s) on this deletion action, 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 Notice of Deletion 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.
