[CPEO-MEF] NPL listing timelines

[Pauline Simon <cpeo@cpeo.org>]

Does anyone know what the requirements currently are for deciding on
proposed National Priority List listings?  How long does EPA have to
place proposed sites on the NPL, formally defer the listing, or rejected
the listing outright?

I recall a lawsuin in New England where the courts required EPA to
evaluate and list sites. I'm wondering about sites that have already
scored high enough for listing, but which are stuck at the "Proposed"
level in the process.
