DEQ SEPA Montana Department of Environmental Guality United States Ervironmental Protection Agency EPA and DEQ request comments on Libby Asbestos Superfund Site Operable Unit 8 proposed deletion EPA and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) invite the public to comment on the proposal to delete Operable Unit 8 (OU8), highways and roadways, of the Libby Asbestos Superfund site from the National Priorities List (NPL).Comments will be accepted from May 14 through June 14. What's the summary? Operable Unit 8 consists of roadways and highways in and between the cities of Libby and Troy, including U.S. Highway 2, MT Highway 37 and county roads. These roads and highways have been cleaned up through remedial actions at other Operable Units of the site, including the former export plant (OU1), former screening plant (OU2) and residential and commercial areas in Libby (OU4) and Troy (OU7). OU8 is considered protective of human health and the environment and does not require additional cleanup. OU8 is therefore eligible to be partially deleted from the site. Operations and maintenance activities, including reviews, will continue to evaluate and ensure protectiveness at OU8 into the future. Where can I read the proposed deletion?
