In accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response,

that a proposed administrative settlement agreement for recovery of
response costs (``Proposed Agreement'') associated with the J.H. & C.K.
Eagle Mill (Kulpmont) Site in Kulpmont, Northumberland County,
Pennsylvania (``Site'') was executed by the Environmental Protection
Agency (``EPA'') and is now subject to public comment, after which EPA
may modify or withdraw its consent if comments received disclose facts
or considerations that indicate that the Proposed Agreement is
inappropriate, improper, or inadequate. The Proposed Agreement would
resolve potential EPA claims under Section 107(a) of CERCLA, against

notice, EPA will receive electronic comments relating to the Proposed
Agreement. EPA's response to any comments received will be available
