U.S. EPA is adding two and proposing three new hazardous waste sites in Region 4 that pose risks to human health and the environment to the National Priorities List (NPL) of Superfund sites. The Flash Cleaners Site (Pompano Beach, Fla.) and the Aberdeen Contaminated Ground Water Site (Aberdeen, N.C.) have been added to the National Priorities List. The Raleigh Street Dump Site (Tampa, Fla.), Arkla Terry Property (Thonotosassa, Fla.), and Barite Hill/Nevada Goldfields Site (McCormick, S.C.) have been proposed to the National Priorities List.
Nationally, there have been 1,587 sites listed on the NPL. Of these sites, 329 sites have been deleted, resulting in 1,258 sites currently on the NPL. There are a total of 1,322 final and proposed sites. For Federal Register notices and supporting documents for these final and proposed sites, please visit http://www.epa.gov/superfund/sites/npl/current.htm.%20
