Sections 302--305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the Background Standard, Statewide Health Standard, the Site-Specific Standard or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known or suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one, a combination of the cleanup standards or who receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.
Under sections 304(n)(1)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a Site-Specific Standard, in whole or in part, and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the sites identified, proposed for remediation to a Site-Specific Standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality within which the site is located may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified. During this comment period, the municipality may request that the person identified as the remediator of the site develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved and comments should be directed to the remediator of the site.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

Trail South
Glen Rock, PA 17327York County Plan Description: Paul Blakemore Farm, A3-67955-214-2: The plan consists of a three lot single-family residential subdivision on 95.533 acres with total proposed sewage flows of 800 gpd to be treated by individual onlot disposal systems. The subdivision will be served with individual water supplies. The proposed development is located on the northwest and southeast sides of Valley Road and west side of Hametown Road in Shrewsbury Township, York County. The plan was disapproved because the hydrogeologic study contained in the planning information revealed by the Department and required by 25 Pa. Code § 71.62(c), contained information that the groundwater will be excessively polluted on a portion of the property and that the onsite sewage systems proposed for this subdivision will excessively pollute the waters of this Commonwealth in violation of The Clean Streams Law. The condition is considered a nuisance and is prohibited. Specifically, the groundwater easement in the proposal does not lay down-gradient of the primary or replacement onlot sewage disposal systems and will not intersect the dispensioin plumes.
HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988Proposed Consent Order and Agreement American Fuel Harvesters Site, East Bangor Borough, Northampton Under section 1113 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. § 6020), notice is hereby provided that the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has entered into a Consent Order and Agreement (Agreement) with Nicholas G. Mazzocchi, Grace Mazzocchi, Mazzocchi Wrecking, Inc., Maztec Environmental, Inc., A. G. Mazzocchi, Inc. and Nicholas Mazzocchi Leasing (Settlors) concerning the response costs incurred by the Department for the cleanup of the American Fuel Harvesters Site (Site).
The Site was a solid waste processing facility that operated from November 1988 to September 1997. The Site consisted of several piles of processed and unprocessed construction/demolition waste located within an abandoned slate quarry. Located to the south of the Site is the East Bangor Dam and Lakewood Drive. East and north of the Site is all residential land with private wells as the primary source of drinking water. Downtown East Bangor is located 1/2 mile south of the Site.
Investigations revealed airborne phenol leaving the Site boundaries; hence the potential of exposure to phenol through inhalation existed for local residents. Also detected in onsite air samples were benzene, toluene and xylene. These substances were being released into the air by subsurface fires, which on several occasions were out of control and increased the potential for inhalation by the surrounding population. Lead was also detected at the Site and the potential existed for lead to leach from the waste piles to the groundwater. Lead could also have been transported from the Site through air emissions during a fire and potentially impact local residents. With the abandonment of the Site during the Fall of 1997, the Department conducted a prompt interim response action from September 1998 to June 1999, which involvedexcavating and extinguishing the burning material, placing the waste material with fire breaks in the onsite quarry and grading, capping and vegetating the area to mitigate the threat to human health and the environment posed by the hazardous substances at the Site.
The partial settlement proposed in the Agreement referenced previously would resolve certain potential claims of the Department solely against the Settlors for reimbursement of response costs incurred by the Department in addressing the release or threat of release of hazardous substances at the Site. The claims originated under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S.§§ 6020.101--6020.1305). The proposed settlement would require the Settlors to pay the Department $125,000 within 30 days of the effective date of the Agreement.
The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the Agreement between the Department and the Settlors, which is available for public review and comment. The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the Agreement for 60 days from the date of this public notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the Agreement if the comments concerning the Agreement disclose facts or considerations which indicate that the Agreement is inappropriate, improper or not in the public interest. After the public comment period, the Department's settlement with the Settlors shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies the Settlors, in writing, that this Agreement is final and effective in its present form and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the Agreement or that no such comments were received.
Copies of the Agreement are available for inspection at the Department's Northeast Regional Office. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Karen Unruh, Department of Environmental Protection, Hazardous Sites Cleanup, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711. Further information may be obtained by contacting Karen Unruh at (570) 826-2511. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Services at (800) 645-5984.
LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a site-specific standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.
For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.
