COAL AND NONCOAL MINING ACTIVITY APPLICATIONS Applications under the Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1396.1—1396.19a); the Noncoal Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 3301—3326); The Clean Streams Law; the Coal Refuse Disposal Control Act (52 P. S. §§ 30.51—30.66); and The Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1406.1—1406.20a). Mining activity permits issued in response to applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4014); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1—693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101—6018.1002).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department. A copy of an application is available for inspection at the district mining office indicated before each application. Notices of requests for 401 Water Quality Certifications are included in individual application notices, as noted.
Written comments or objections, or requests for an informal conference or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application may be submitted by a person or an officer or head of Federal, state or local government agency or authority to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each application within 30 days of this publication or within 30 days after the last publication of the applicant's newspaper advertisement, as provided by 25 Pa. Code §§ 77.121—77.123 and 86.31—86.34.
Written comments or objections regarding a mining permit application should contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting comments or objections, the application number and a statement of sufficient detail to inform the Department on the basis of comment or objection and relevant facts upon which it is based.
A request for an informal conference or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application, as provided by 25 Pa. Code § 77.123 or § 86.34, must contain the name, address and telephone number of the requestor; the application number; a brief summary of the issues to be raised by the requestor at the conference; and a statement whether the requestor desires to have the conference conducted in the locality of the proposed mining activities.
When an NPDES number is listed, the mining activity permit application was accompanied by an application for an individual NPDES permit. The Department has made a tentative determination to issue the NPDES permit in conjunction with the mining activity permit, but the issuance of the NPDES permit is contingent upon the approval of the associated mining activity permit.
For coal mining activities, NPDES permits, when issued, will contain effluent limits that do not exceed the technology-based effluent limitations. The proposed limits are listed in Table 1.
For noncoal mining activities, the proposed limits are in Table 2. Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in coal fields) may require additional effluent limits. If additional effluent limits are needed for an NPDES permit associated with a noncoal mining permit, then the permit description specifies the parameters. The limits will be in the ranges specified in Table 1.
More restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume or restrictions on the extent of mining that may occur will be incorporated into an NPDES permit when necessary for compliance with water quality standards and antidegradation requirements (in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91—96).
The procedures for determining the final effluent limits, using a mass-balance equation or model, are in Technical Guidance Document 362-0600-001, NPDES Program Implementation-Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Concerning Water Quality Management, NPDES Program Implementation, and Related Matters. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Loads.
Persons wishing to comment on NPDES permit applications should submit statements to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each application within 30 days of this public notice. Comments received within the comment period will be considered in the final determinations regarding the NPDES permit applications. A comment must include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.
The Department will also accept requests or petitions for a public hearing on NPDES permit applications as provided in 25 Pa. Code § 92.61. The request or petition for a public hearing shall be filed within 30 days of this public notice and contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request and state the reasons why a hearing is warranted. A public hearing may be held if the Department considers the public interest significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing on the NPDES permit application will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. When a public hearing is held, the Department will consider comments from the public hearing in the final determination on the NPDES permit application.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988Proposed Interim Response Revised Plumstead Fire HSCA Site,
Plumstead Township, Bucks CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.102—6020.1303), has initiated a prompt interim response at the Plumstead Fire HSCA Site, Plumstead Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
The Plumstead Fire Site is located northeast of the intersection of Easton Road (Rt 611) and Stump Road in Plumstead Township Bucks County. On June 29, 2010 a building caught on fire at 5189 Stump Road, Pipersville, PA. An alternate address for the property is 5189 Stump Road, Plumsteadville, PA (''Site'').
As a result of the fire and firefighting activities, in the course of which large quantities of water were sprayed on the fire, various chemical constituents that were stored on the property were released with the firefighting water runoff.
Inspections by the Department at the time of the fire and in subsequent visits revealed that contaminated runoff from the fire fighting activities flowed into one of the adjacent ponds and, from that pond into the second adjacent pond, via a connecting culvert. When the water level in the second pond reached an overflow pipe, the water entered a previously dry swale and flowed into nearby fields, where it was observed seeping into the ground. In August 2010, soil samples collected from the edge of the ponds revealed elevated levels of Antimony. In September 2010, samples collected from the sediment on the bottom of the pond revealed elevated concentrations of Benzene, Benzoic Acid, Antimony, Sodium, and Manganese.
Following the fire, the Bucks County Department of Health visited the homes of the residents and observed that the appearance and odor of the water from their wells were similar to the appearance and odor of water in the ponds. Samples were collected from these wells on various occasions between July and October. In several residential homes, the results revealed elevated levels of Benzene, Benzoic Acid, Antimony, Sodium, and Manganese. The wells serving many of these homes are considered shallow as they are less than 90 feet deep.
To address the release and threat of release of hazardous substances at the Site, and corresponding threats to human health and the environment, the Department initiated a prompt interim response action at the Site under Sections 501(a) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.501(a). In August 2010, a tanker truck was provided to 11 homes as a whole house water source. In addition, the Department has initiated the installation of deeper wells and/or treatment systems to address the contaminated water supplies and has initiated the draining and excavation of the ponds. The Department has determined that these actions are protective of human health and the environment, comply with Applicable, Relevant and Appropriate Requirements (ARARs) and are feasible and cost-effective. Other possible alternatives with regard to the contaminated water supplies included no action, continued use of the tanker trucks, treatment only, and the installation of a waterline. The only alternative to draining and excavation of the ponds was no action.
An Administrative Record, which contains more detailed information concerning this prompt interim response action, is available for public inspection. The Administrative Record may be examined from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Department's office at 2 East Main Street, Norristown PA 19401. Those interested in examining the Administrative Record should contact the Department's Records Management Section (484) 250-5910 to arrange for an appointment. An additional copy of the Administrative Record is available for review at the Plumstead Township Municipal Building at 5186 Stump Rd., Plumsteadville, PA 18949.
Pursuant to Sections 505(b) and 506(d) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.505(b) and 6020.506(d), the Department will conduct a public hearing on December 14, 2010 at 7:00 pm at the Plumstead Township Municipal Building located at Plumstead Township Municipal Building at 5186 Stump Road, Plumsteadville, PA 18949. Anyone who would like to present formal oral comments regarding this proposed response may do so by registering with the Department before the meeting. Individuals may register by calling the Department's Community Relations Supervisor Deborah Fries (484) 250-5808.
Any person with a disability who wishes to attend the public hearing and will require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings should contact Deborah Fries at the telephone number listed above or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs. The public may also submit written comments regarding the Department's Prompt Interim Response action during the period of public comment. In accordance with Section 506(c) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.506(c), the Department has established a period for public comment that is now open until close of business February 14, 2011. Written comments should be addressed to Bonnie McClennen, Project Officer, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.

The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907).
Provisions of Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the 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, will 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 reuse 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 under which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears.

Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with sections 301—303, 306 and 307 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1311—1313, 1316 and 1317) and that the construction will not violate applicable Federal and State water quality standards.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704. The appeal should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, PO Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483.

The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483.

For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.
Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

Please refer all inquiries to the Issuing Officer.I-8. Rejection of Proposals. The Issuing Office reserves the right, in its sole and complete discretion, to reject any proposals received as a result of this RFP.
Part II. Scope of Work II-1. Nature and Scope of the Project. Services will be performed for the Bureau of Waterways Engineering (Bureau). The Bureau designs stream improvement, flood protection and dam removal projects. These projects often have the potential to affect archaeological resources and historic properties. The Bureau wishes to retain a Cultural Resources Consulting Firm to perform cultural resource studies at its projects, in order to comply with state and federal laws and regulations. The selected Consultant will aid the Bureau by performing studies, advising the Bureau on appropriate treatment of resources, and by presenting results to the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, Bureau for Historic Preservation.
The Consultant will perform cultural resource investigations on an as-needed basis, on projects which may be located anywhere in Pennsylvania. The workload may be highly variable, and the Consultant must be able to undertake investigations at multiple sites, concurrently. Construction schedules and memorandums with other agencies will often impose deadlines for completion of cultural resource work. The ability to respond rapidly to work requests and to complete projects in a timely fashion is essential. A single point of contact for all projects is essential for effective communication and for project management, especially if subcontractors are used. Investigation methods, reports and documents must be acceptable to the Bureau of Waterways Engineering and the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, Bureau for Historic Preservation.
II-2. Requirements. The Consultant may perform all phases of Historic Property and Archaeology investigations. Experience performing work in Pennsylvania and knowledge of the specific requirements of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, Bureau for Historic Preservation is essential. The Consultant's capability to perform this work should be reflected in the personnel available for this project. Essential Archaeology personnel are typically referred to as Principal Investigator, Field Supervisor, Field Technician, and Geomorphologist. Historic Property investigations require personnel typically referred to as Preservation Planner or Architectural Historian, and Historic Architect.
Personnel involved in providing Archaeological services shall have at least the minimum educational and professional experience as defined by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission in Appendix B of A Comprehensive State Plan for the Conservation of Archaeological Resources, Volume 1, PHMC, 1985. The Preservation Planner/Architectural Historian shall have at least the minimum educational and professional experience set forth in 36 CFR Part 61 for Architectural History professionals, and four years experience with Section 106 review procedures. The Historic Architect must have the minimum educational and professional experience set forth in 36 CFR Part 61 for Historic Architecture professionals and experience preparing Historic American Engineering Record and Historic American Building Survey drawings.
II-3. Tasks and Reports
Each project will begin with a work plan produced by the Consultant. The work plan will identify the elements of each project, the resources assigned to the project, and the time allotted to each element and the deliverable items to be produced. Costs should be estimated for each work element. A periodic progress report covering activities, problems, and recommendations may be required for complex projects or those of a long duration. The Bureau requires a draft copy of the final report for its review, prior to submission to the Bureau for Historic Preservation, other government agencies, or consulting parties. For Archaeological work, written reports will follow guidelines provided by the Bureau for Historic Preservation in Cultural Resource Management in Pennsylvania: Guidelines for Archaeological Investigations, Pa. Historical and Museum Commission, 1991. For Historic Properties work, written reports will be developed from guidelines provided in How to Complete the Pennsylvania Historic Resource Survey Form, Pa. Historical and Museum Commission, 1990 and the procedures and guidelines of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, Section 106 Review Process, 36 CFR Part 800.
Part III. Disadvantaged Business Participation PART III-1. General Information
Disadvantaged Business Information
The Issuing Office encourages participation by small disadvantaged businesses as prime contractors, joint ventures, and subcontractors/suppliers and by socially disadvantaged businesses as prime contractors.
Small Disadvantaged Businesses are small businesses that are owned or controlled by a majority of persons, not limited to members of minority groups, who have been deprived of the opportunity to develop and maintain a competitive position in the economy because of social disadvantages. The term includes:
a. Department of General Services Bureau of Minority and Women Business Opportunities (BMWBO)-certified minority business enterprises (MBEs) and women business enterprises (WBEs) that qualify as small businesses; and
b. United States Small Business Administration certified 8(a) small disadvantaged business concerns.
c. Businesses that BMWBO determines meet the Small Business Administration criteria for designation as a small disadvantaged business.
Small businesses are businesses in the United States which are independently owned, are not dominant in their field of operation, employ no more than 100 full-time or full-time equivalent employees, and earn less than $20 million in gross annual revenues ($25 million in gross annual revenues for those businesses in the information technology sales or service business).
Socially disadvantaged businesses are businesses in the United States that BMWBO determines are owned or controlled by a majority of persons, not limited to members of minority groups, who are subject to racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias, but which do not qualify as small businesses. In order for a business to qualify as ''socially disadvantaged,'' the offeror must include in its proposal clear and convincing evidence to establish that the business has personally suffered racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias stemming from the business person's color, ethnic origin or gender.

Information Concerning Small Businesses in Enterprise Zones:
The Issuing Office encourages participation by small businesses, whose primary or headquarters facility is physically located in areas the Commonwealth has identified as Designated Enterprise Zones, as prime contractors, joint ventures, and subcontractors/suppliers.
The definition of headquarters includes but is not limited to an office or location that is the administrative center of a business or enterprise where most of the important functions of the business are conducted or concentrated and location where employees are conducting the business of the company on a regular and routine basis so as to contribute to the economic development of the geographical area in which the office or business is geographically located.
Small businesses are businesses in the United States that are independently owned, are not dominant in their field of operation, employ no more than 100 persons and earn less than $20 million in gross annual revenues ($25 million in gross annual revenues for those businesses in the information technology sales or service business).
There is no database or directory of small business located in Designated Enterprise Zones. Information on the location of Designated Enterprise Zones can be obtained by contacting:

Priority Rank 1 Proposals submitted by Small Disadvantaged Businesses. Priority Rank 2 Proposals submitted from a joint venture with a Small Disadvantaged Business as a joint venture partner. Priority Rank 3 Proposals submitted with subcontracting commitments to Small Disadvantaged Businesses. Priority Rank 4 Proposals submitted by Socially Disadvantaged Businesses.

Each approach will be evaluated, with Priority Rank 1 receiving the highest score and the succeeding options receiving scores in accordance with the above-listed priority ranking.
To the extent that an Offeror qualifies as a Small Disadvantaged Business or a Socially Disadvantaged Business, the Small Disadvantaged Business or Socially Disadvantaged Business cannot enter into subcontract arrangements for more than 40% of the total estimated dollar amount of the contract. If a Small Disadvantaged Business or a Socially Disadvantaged Business subcontracts more than 40% of the total estimated dollar amount of the contract to other contractors, the Disadvantaged Business Participation scoring shall be proportionally lower for that proposal.
Enterprise Zone Small Business Participation:
In accordance with the priority ranks listed below, bonus points in addition to the total points for this RFP, will be given for the Enterprise Zone Small Business Participation criterion. The maximum bonus points for this criterion is 3% of the total points for this RFP. The following options will be considered as part of the final criteria for selection:
Priority Rank 1 Proposals submitted by an Enterprise Zone Small Business will receive the highest score. Priority Rank 2 Proposals submitted by a joint venture with an Enterprise Zone Small Business as a joint venture partner will receive the next highest score for this criterion. Priority Rank 3 Proposals submitted with a subcontracting commitment to an Enterprise Zone Small Business will receive the lowest score for this criterion. Priority Rank 4 Proposals with no Enterprise Zone Small Business Utilization shall receive no points under this criterion. To the extent that an Offeror is an Enterprise Zone Small Business, the Offeror cannot enter into contract or subcontract arrangements for more than 40% of the total estimated dollar amount of the contract in order to qualify as an Enterprise Zone Small Business for purposes of this RFP.

Any proposed change must be submitted to BMWBO, which will make a recommendation to the Contracting Officer regarding a course of action.

The selected contractor shall complete the Prime Contractor's Quarterly Utilization Report (or similar type document containing the same information) and submit it to the contracting officer of the Issuing Office and BMWBO within 10 workdays at the end of each quarter the contract is in force. This information will be used to determine the actual dollar amount paid to Small Disadvantaged Business and/or Enterprise Zone Small Business subcontractors and suppliers, and Small Disadvantaged Business and/or Enterprise Zone Small Business participants involved in joint ventures. Also, this information will serve as a record of fulfillment of the commitment the selected contractor made and for which it received Disadvantaged Business and Enterprise Zone Small Business points. If there was no activity during the quarter then the form must be completed by stating ''No activity in this quarter.''
