The following table shows what EPA does when it receives the first LOI from a group:
| If your site . . .
| Then EPA . . .
|
|---|
| (a) Is not proposed for listing on the NPL or is proposed but no response is underway or scheduled to begin | will advise you in writing that we are not yet accepting TAG “applications” for your site. EPA may informally notify other interested groups that it has received an LOI.
|
| (b) Is listed on the NPL or is proposed for listing on the NPL and a response action is underway | will publish a notice in your local newspaper to formally notify other interested parties that they may contact the first group that sent the LOI to form a coalition or they may submit a separate LOI. |
