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.

The Department of Transportation (DOT) is required to provide a minimum of 20,916 feet of stream mitigation as a result of the US Route 220 Improvements Project, of which 3,533 feet of stream mitigation still needs to be provided. The DOT proposes to amend Permit E14-440 to authorize them to construct and maintain (for 5 years) 4,054 feet of stream mitigation between projects in Ardery Hollow Run and Buffalo Run, which would provide a total of 21,437 feet of stream mitigation as a result of the US Route 220 Improvements Project.
The goals of the stream mitigation along Ardery Hollow Run include the following: 1) reconnect the stream channel with the adjacent floodplain; 2) stabilize areas of accelerated bank erosion/lateral migration; 3) replace the timber railroad tie wall with an imbricated stone ban; 4) provide a stone channel crossing upstream of ardery hollow road bridge for livestock use; 5) realign the stream channel and improve the flow approach through the ardery hollow road bridge using vane structures; 6) modify the planform geometry at tortuous meander bends to provide a stable radius of curvature and incorporate bioengineered bank stabilization measures; 7) construct livestock fencing along the left bank of the lower reach; 8) increase the density of woody vegetation within the riparian zone; and 9) establish a permanent conservation easement along the riparian zone.
The goals of the stream mitigation along Buffalo Run include the following: 1) establish a permanent conservation easement along the riparian zone; 2) increase the density of woody vegetation within the riparian zone; 3) stabilize areas of accelerated bank erosion; and 4) realign stream channel to prevent further erosion and damage to the SR 550 roadway embankment.
A total of 4,054 feet would be impacted by this project between work in Ardery Hollow Run, which is classified as a CWF, and Buffalo Run, which is classified as a HQ-CWF and a Class A Wild Trout Water for wild brown trout. No work is proposed in any wetlands as part of this amendment. A different permit applicant may apply for a permit to replace a residential footbridge and undersized pipe culvert with a precase concrete box culvert containing the appropriate hydraulic opening, within the same reach of Ardery Hollow at this proposed amendment site as an integral, but separately permitted encroachment.

[Continued from previous Web Page] PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY (PWS) PERMITS The Department of Environmental Protection has taken the following actions on applications received under the Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act (35 P. S. §§ 721.1--721.17) for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
For individuals who wish to challenge an action, appeals 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.
