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 any 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 or 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.

This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for DEP, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.
DEP has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the Regional Office identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate Regional Office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of the proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit must indicate their interest to the DEP Regional Office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a Proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit within 30 days of the DEP providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with DEP Regional Offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts, which serve as the basis for the objections. If DEP schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.
Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the Regional Office identified. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 3
The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8 and the Administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (Act), requires the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on 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 remediation standards of the Act. Plans and reports required by provisions of the Act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. 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. A cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate Regional Office listed. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Notice of Revised Technical Guidance Manual Available for Public Comment The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is seeking public comment on its revised Technical Guidance Manual for the Land Recycling Program. This document provides guidance to the regulated community for implementing the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (Act 2) and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 250. The guidance was developed by DEP's Bureau of Land Recycling and Waste Management and is available on the DEP website at www.state.pa.us (DirectLINK ''Land Recycling'') or can be obtained by contacting Dave Hess, Bureau of Land Recycling and Waste Management, Division of Land Recycling and Cleanup Program, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 14th Floor, P. O. Box 8471, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8471, (717) 783-7816, dahess@state. pa.us.
The Technical Guidance Manual assists the regulated community in interpreting the regulations for the administration of the Land Recycling Program. The manual is now being revised based upon the experiences gained during the 6 years of program operation, comments from the regulated community, and proposed amendments to the Land Recycling regulations, which were published August 5, 2001. In addition to minor technical and editorial corrections and updates, comments are invited on, the following substantive changes:
* The voluntary nature of Act 2 is clarified.
* Discussion of measures that the program is instituting, which are intended to improve our service through consistency of program implementation.
* Site characterization is discussed in more detail, emphasizing that the extent of liability protection is directly related to the extent of characterization performed. The section describing site characterization requirements is expanded, stating minimum standards, and relating data objectives for characterization to the requirement for fate and transport analysis. Examples of site characterization have been expanded.
* The relationship of Separate Phase Liquids ) to the three Act 2 standards (background, Statewide health and site-specific) and DEP's policy regarding situations where removal is encouraged are discussed.
* Several changes in the nonuse aquifer section are being made to make the guidance consistent with the proposed amendments to the Chapter 250 regulations. Included in this is a requirement that a postremediation care plan be instituted to verify that the criteria for designation as a nonuse aquifer continue to be met.
* The requirement that the format of final reports has been changed to include a summary is discussed, and new checklists are provided. These checklists provide for the inclusion of a calculation of the mass of contaminants remediated.
* A methodology for applying the Synthetic Precipitation Leaching Procedure in establishing the soil-to-groundwater numeric values under the Statewide health standard is included.
* Clarification is made to the process for conducting the screen for impacts to ecological receptors under the Statewide health standard.
* To bring the manual into conformance with the proposed amendments to the regulations, a procedure has been added to incorporate the use of a no-exceedance standard for demonstrating attainment of the Statewide health standard at sites where full site characterization has not been performed prior to remediation for releases of petroleum products.
* Guidance for conducting risk assessments under the site-specific standard has been clarified and expanded.
* A new section regarding institutional controls and other postremediation obligations has been added to the site-specific standard discussion. The guidance now provides a menu of controls that a remediator may use at his preference.
* Based on discussions with DEP's Office of Water Management, a significant change is being proposed as a new process for demonstrating attainment of surface water quality criteria. Comment is specifically requested on this section and in particular, how substances marked with an asterisk (*) on Table 3 have been categorized. This new process categorizes substances into Tables 1--3, which then determines how they will be addressed in satisfying the surface water quality requirements.
Interested persons are invited to submit comments, suggestions or objections regarding the proposed Technical Guidance Manual, either in writing or electronically, to Dave Hess by January 23, 2002.
