List of Superfund sites in North Carolina
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of Superfund sites in North Carolina designated under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) environmental law. The CERCLA federal law of 1980 authorized the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to create a list of polluted locations requiring a long-term response to clean up hazardous material contaminations.[1] These locations are known as Superfund sites, and are placed on the National Priorities List (NPL).
The NPL guides the EPA in "determining which sites warrant further investigation" for environmental remediation.[2] As of December 16, 2010, there were 35 Superfund sites on the National Priorities List in North Carolina.[2] Two additional sites have been proposed for entry on the list.[2] One site has been cleaned up and removed from the list, and four other sites have been partially deleted from the NPL.[2]
