Ocean Dumping Regulations: Ocean Dumping Site Correction and Reorganization; Final Rule ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

The Environmental Protection Agency is revising the regulations containing the list of EPA designated ocean dumping sites. This rule reorganizes the way in which the sites are printed in the Code of Federal Regulations, eliminates listings of expired or terminated sites, eliminates listings of sites which lie landward of the baseline of the territorial sea, corrects technical errors in the list of ocean dumping sites, and makes conforming technical changes to the regulations. These changes are not substantive in nature, and are needed to improve the clarity and accuracy of the list of ocean dumping sites. In addition to these clarifying changes, this rule de-designates the Cellar Dirt Site in the New York Bight and the Newburyport, MA, dredged material site. Those sites are no longer being used and there is no demonstrable need for their use in the future.
