SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Removal Action

The EPA conducted a Fund-lead Time-Critical Removal Action at the Recycletronics—Akron Farm Facility Superfund Site (Site) located at 16998 160 St., Akron, Iowa between March 2022 and July 2022 to remove approximately 944 tons of lead-containing cathode ray tube glass from the Site. Lead is a hazardous substance as defined by CERCLA.

To recover some of its response costs, the EPA negotiated two proposed CERCLA section 122(h)(1) Administrative Settlement Agreement for Recovery of Past Response Costs (settlements) with two potentially responsible parties that arranged for disposal of hazardous waste at the Site. The EPA will enter the proposed settlements with WM Recycle America, L.L.C. and Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations, Inc. WM Recycle America, L.L.C. and Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations, Inc. agreed to pay EPA for their respective portions of EPA's costs incurred in responding to the time-critical removal action at the Site.

Each settlement includes a covenant by EPA not to sue or take administrative action against WM Recycle America, L.L.C., and Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations, Inc. pursuant to sections 106 and 107(a) of CERCLA.
