Old ATC Refinery Superfund Site; Notice of Withdrawal of Proposed 
Settlement

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of withdrawal of proposed settlement.

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

SUMMARY: Section 122(i) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, 
Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended (``CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. 
9622(i), requires EPA to publish in the Federal Register notice of 
proposed administrative settlements entered under section 122(h) of 
CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 6922(h), and, for a 30-day period beginning on the 
date of publication, to provide an opportunity for persons who are not 
parties to the proposed settlement to file written comments relating to 
the proposed settlement. Section 122(i) further requires EPA to 
consider any comments filed during the 30-day period and permits EPA to 
withdraw or withhold consent to the proposed settlement if such 
comments disclose facts or considerations which indicate the proposed 
settlement is inappropriate, improper, or inadequate.
    In accordance with section 122(i) of CERCLA, EPA published notice 
of a proposed administrative settlement with Linda Carroll and Carroll 
Carolina Corporation (Carroll), concerning the Old ATC Refinery Site 
located in Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina, in the 
Federal Register on November 10, 1998 (63 FR 63,052 (1998)).
    Comments to the proposed settlement were received from Skadden, 
Arps, Slate Meagher & Flom, on behalf of their client, Axel Johnson, 
Inc., (Axel). EPA has considered these comments, and hereby withdraws 
the proposed settlement.

    Dated: June 10, 1999.
