    Proposed Responses Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act

    Reclamation Resources Site
    Hatfield Township, Montgomery County

       The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) has proposed two interim responses at the Reclamation Resources site.

       The Reclamation Resources site is located at 2042 Lenhart Road in Hatfield Township, Montgomery County. The site consists of the former headquarters facility of Reclamation Resources, Incorporated (RRI), and contaminated soil and groundwater resulting from RRI's operations at this facility.

       The Department has determined the following: RRI is no longer in business. The site was identified as one of 15 potential source areas for contamination of wells of the North Penn Water Authority (NPWA) with volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), and is designated ''North Penn Area 4'' by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The former RRI facility was sold in 1984 and has since been converted to residential use, the residences being supplied with public water.

       A further investigation of the site by the DEP's Hazardous Sites Cleanup Program (HSCP) identified several hundred cubic yards of soil contaminated with VOCs in excess of cleanup standards in appendix B of the Land Recycling Program Technical Manual. The standards exceeded are those based on potential impact on groundwater used as a supply of potable water. The HSCP investigation also identified a number of VOC-contaminated residential wells nearby, with the onsite soil the apparent source. To date five nearby residential wells have exceeded Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) established by EPA for public water supplies. Two of the households have since connected to public water, two have carbon filters, and one is using bottled water. As one of the carbon filters has consistently failed to reduce contamination below MCLs, the present owners of the site have been supplying bottled water to that household. The only known environmental hazard associated with the site is an increased cancer risk based on exposure to contaminated groundwater.

    Contaminated Soil

       The Department considered the following alternatives in response to contaminated soil at the Reclamation Resources site:

    Alternative S1:  No Action

       HSCA requires the Department to consider the alternative of taking no action. Under this alternative, no action would be taken to prevent continued leaching of contaminants from soil into groundwater. Continued sampling of monitoring wells would be required. This alternative would do nothing to protect public health. Contaminated soil would remain, allowing further releases to groundwater. An aquifer currently used as a source of drinking water would be subject to continuing contamination with hazardous substances leaching from contaminated soil.

    Alternative S2:  Excavation and Disposal of Contaminated Soil

       Soil contaminated above Statewide Human Health Standards for Soil, established under Act 2 of 1995, would be excavated and disposed. The cleanup levels exceeded are those established for certain VOCs. Each of the standards exceeded was based on the potential of contaminated soil to leach contaminants into groundwater in a leachate concentration exceeding a health-based groundwater cleanup standard. The volume of soil to be removed is estimated to be 500 cubic yards. This estimate includes approximately 233 cubic yards of soil contaminated above cleanup levels, plus surrounding soil and overburden which must be removed to reach the contaminated soil. This alternative would be protective of public health in that it would eliminate a source of continuing contamination of an aquifer currently used as a source of drinking water.

    Alternative S3:  Soil Treatment Using Heat and Mixing

       This alternative is similar to alternative S2, with the exception that the contaminated soil would be treated on site with the use of a trencher with VOC stripping, rather than being excavated for offsite disposal.

    Proposed Response for Contaminated Soil

       The Department is proposing alternative S2 as described above. Alternative S1 is not protective of public health or the environment, and would require significant expenditures for continued monitoring of area groundwater. Alternative S2 is as effective as alternative S3, and has been estimated to be faster and less expensive.

    Contaminated Groundwater

       The Department considered the following alternatives in response to contaminated groundwater at the Reclamation Resources site:

    Alternative GW1:  No Action

       HSCA requires the Department to consider the alternative of taking no action. Under this alternative no action would be taken to prevent continuing exposure of the public to contaminated groundwater. Continued sampling of monitoring wells would be required. This alternative would do nothing to protect public health. People would continue to be exposed to contaminated groundwater through drinking, cooking and other domestic uses.

    Alternative GW2:  Provision of Public Water Supply

       The Department would extend the existing waterline and would provide public water connections to residences with wells affected or threatened by the contaminant plume. This alternative would be fully protective of public health. The alternative relies on proven, reliable technology. The response would include extending existing mains, installing laterals, hookups, and incidental grading, seeding, street repair, and the like following construction.

    Alternative GW3:  Point-of-Use Carbon Filtration of Water Supply

       This alternative would consist of point-of-use water treatment. Each of approximately 35 affected or threatened residences would be supplied with a whole-house carbon filter of sufficient capacity to reduce contaminants to within MCLs. The filtered water would be sampled and analyzed annually. Carbon in the filters would be replaced annually. This alternative would be fully protective of public health. The alternative relies on proven, reliable technology. Carbon filtration is a standard treatment for the contaminants of concern at the site. With adequate capacity and maintenance, individual water supplies can be maintained within MCLs.

    Proposed Response for Contaminated Groundwater

       The Department is proposing alternative GW2 as described above. Alternative GW1 is not protective of public health or the environment, and would require significant expenditures for continued monitoring of area groundwater. Alternative GW2 is as effective as alternative GW3, and is estimated to cost significantly less.

    Administrative Record and Public Hearing

       The administrative record, which contains the information that forms the basis for and documents the selection of these response actions, is available for public review and comment Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the DEP office at Lee Park, Suite 6010, 555 North Lane, Conshohocken, PA 19428-2233, (610) 832-6200.

       In addition, the public will have an opportunity to present oral comments at a public hearing. The public hearing is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Thursday, December 12, 1996, at the Hatfield Township Municipal Building, 1980 School Road, Hatfield, PA. Persons wishing to present oral comments may register on or before the date of the public hearing by contacting Robert Goldberg, DEP Community Relations Coordinator, at (610) 832-6010.
