Notice of Proposed Remedial Response
Quakertown Foundry Site
Quakertown Borough, Bucks County
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304) (HSCA), has proposed a remedial response at the Quakertown Foundry Site.
The Quakertown Foundry Site is located at 400 Mill Street in Quakertown, Bucks County. The site lies within both the Borough of Quakertown and Richland Township. The site covers approximately 22 acres and was the location of former foundry operations, dating back to 1923. It has had various ownerships throughout its history. Foundry operations ceased at the site in 1984 and the foundry buildings were demolished in 1987.
The primary wastes produced through foundry operations included casting sands, slag and baghouse dust. Foundry wastes were disposed of on the middle and rear portion of the site and have come to be located throughout the foundry site. Two tar dip pits also remain onsite. A neighboring midget football field is included in the definition of the site since fill material from the foundry was utilized in the construction of the field. A municipal supply well is located approximately 100 feet northwest of the site.
Baghouse dust samples have been found to contain significant quantities of leachable lead. Groundwater samples from a perched water table lying beneath the site have indicated lead concentrations above Maximum Contaminant Levels and pump tests have indicated that there may be a connection between the perched water table beneath the site and the aquifer from which the municipal supply well takes its water.
Soil samples have indicated high lead levels. From samples taken at surface level and subsurface, the Department has calculated that over 87,000 cu. yds. of contaminated fill exists at the Quakertown Foundry Site.
The Department conducted a Prompt Interim Response in December, 1992, during which an 8-foot high chain-link fence was constructed around the perimeter of the foundry site and the municipal football field. The purpose of this action was to restrict public access to the site and thereby reduce the threat to public health and safety.
Based on the large amount of contaminated fill, the presence of hazardous waste, and the potential threat to the municipal supply well, the Southeast Region has placed the Quakertown Foundry Site on the Pennsylvania Priorities List for remedial action.
A variety of alternatives were considered by the Department for the Quakertown Foundry site. Those alternatives included the following:
A. Alternative 1, No Action: The No Action Alternative is utilized as a baseline against which all other alternatives are evaluated. If this alternative were selected, no further remedial action would be conducted at the site.
B. Alternative 2, Excavation and Off-Site Disposal: This alternative would involve a mechanical means of excavating and removing wastes and contaminated site soils. Disposal of wastes and soils would be to an approved hazardous waste Treatment/Storage/Disposal (TSD) facility. The foundry site would require backfilling with clean soil to return the property to its original grade.
C. Alternative 3, Capping/Containment: Three different varieties of Capping/Containment options were examined while evaluating applicable alternatives. These forms include a traditional cap, bottom sealing and vertical barriers. Each individual technology discussed would not be effective when implemented by itself. However, when several containment remedies are implemented in tandem, the technologies may work together to increase the effectiveness of the remedy.
(i) Cap: A cap would form a horizontal barrier overtop of the existing contamination at the site. There would be no removal of waste from the site. The purpose of a cap would be to attempt to eliminate the fugitive dusts or emissions from the site as well as prevention of water percolation through the wastes, therefore reducing the potential for material to leach into the groundwater.
(ii) Bottom Sealing: Bottom sealing involves the installation of a low-permeability barrier between the area of contamination and groundwater. A barrier is created by grout injection between the layer of contamination and groundwater. Bottom sealing is most effective when used in tandem with either a cap and/or vertical barriers and is able to encapsulate the area of contamination.
(iii) Vertical Barriers: Vertical barriers include slurry walls, grout sealing or sheet piling, and would prevent lateral migration of contaminants. When used in tandem with a horizontal barrier, they would aid in the formation of an effective barrier for the spread of contamination.
D. Alternative 4, Excavation, Soil Washing, Offsite Disposal: In this alternative, the soils are excavated and mixed with either water, surfactants, chelating agents or organic solvents depending on the most effective agent. The contaminants are concentrated into the silt or fine-grained fraction. This fraction is then rinsed, dewatered and typically requires management as hazardous waste.
E. Alternative 5, Excavation, Treatment, Onsite Disposal: Several forms of treatment alternatives were evaluated. Treatments may include chemical treatment and/or mineralization and/or physical treatment technologies. Disposal of the treated material will be onsite. The site would also require a modified soil cap and revegetation.
Physical treatment technologies include in situ or ex situ stabilization of contaminants with a stabilizing agent with the possible addition of additives to enhance treatment. These technologies immobilize the contaminants so they will not migrate to groundwater.
Chemical treatment is a technology in which the contaminants undergo a chemical change from their present form into a fixed, insoluble form. Through this treatment, the lead and cadmium in the soil are bound into a form which does not leach into the groundwater.
F. Alternative 6, Excavation, Treatment, Offsite Disposal: Several forms of treatment alternatives were evaluated as potential selections. Treatments may include chemical treatment and/or mineralization and/or physical treatment. Disposal of the treated material will be offsite.
Physical treatment involves in situ or ex situ treatment of contaminants with a stabilizing agent and the possible addition of additives to enhance stabilization, offsite disposal, backfilling the site with uncontaminated material and revegetation of the site.
Chemical treatment is a technology in which the contaminants undergo a chemical change from their present form into a fixed, insoluble form. Through this treatment, the lead and cadmium in the soil are bound into a form which does not leach into the groundwater. Wastes and contaminated soils would be treated so as to permit their handling and disposal as a residual waste at a lawfully permitted disposal facility.
The Department's preferred alternative is Alternative No. 6, Excavation, Treatment and Offsite Disposal, with the specific treatment technology to be determined during the remedial design and bidding process. In addition, a more complete description of the site and the Department's Analysis of Alternatives and Proposed Response may be found in the Administrative Record at the locations listed below.
This notice is being provided under section 506(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.506(b)) and 25 Pa. Code § 3.23.

Proposed Response under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act
Sellersville Inactive Landfill
Sellersville Borough, Bucks CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), has proposed an interim response at the Sellersville Inactive Landfill site.
The Sellersville Inactive Landfill site is located at the corner of Twelfth and Main Sts. in Sellersville Borough. The Radium Company of America is believed to have operated a radium refining plant there during the period 1914--1921. A landfill containing volatile organic compounds, hazardous metals, PCBs and demolition waste was later deposited on the property during the 1940s. The site consists of an abandoned garage foundation and a 100` × 150` landfill located within a 10-acre, mostly wooded property.
The Department has determined that there is a threat to public health and the environment posed by hazardous waste (D008--Lead, D039--Tetrachloroethene, D040--Trichloroethene, Radium--226Ra). The Department has considered four alternatives for action at the site. The HSCA requires consideration of a No Action alternative. Complete capping of the wastes onsite would eliminate the immediate risks to the public, but would not be a permanent solution. Removing the radioactive wastes and capping the remainder would also eliminate risks, but it would not eliminate all the risks posed by the site permanently. This would not be protective of human health. Off site shipment and disposal of the wastes is a permanent solution that would eliminate the threat to public health posed by the site.
The Department is proposing to analyze, consolidate, transport and properly dispose of the hazardous wastes that are present at the site. This remedy is proposed because it is the most protective and permanent solution.
The Administrative Record, which contains the information that forms the basis for and documents the selection of this response action, is available for public review and comment. The Administrative Record is located at the Samuel Pierce Branch of the Bucks County Free Library, located at 491 Arthur Avenue, Perkasie, PA 18944, (215) 257-9718. The Administrative Record may also be reviewed at the DEP Regional Office located at 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428.
Written comments concerning the Department's response and the information contained in the Administrative record will be accepted in person, if delivered, or by mail, if postmarked on or before May 22, 1996. Written comments should be directed to the attention of Timothy Cherry, DEP Project Officer, at the above address. Timothy Cherry may be reached by telephone at (610) 832-6204.
In addition, the public will have an opportunity to present oral comments at a public hearing. The public hearing is scheduled for 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, April 17, 1996, at St. Paul's United Church of Christ at 104 Green Street, Sellersville, PA 18960. Persons wishing to present oral comments should register on or before the date of the public hearing by contacting Rob Goldberg, DEP Community Relations Coordinator, at (610) 832-6010.
Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings should contact Rob Goldberg or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at 1 (800) 654-5984 to discuss how the Department may meet their needs.
The Department is providing this notice under section 506(b) of HSCA. The date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin initiates the minimum 90-day public comment period on the Administrative Record, as provided under that act.
Permit modification proposed under the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101--6018.1003), the Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act (53 P.

General Permit Numbers: WMGR017 and WMGR017M001
The Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Land Recycling and Waste Management proposes to modify General Permits WMGR017 and WMGR017M001, which were issued on June 16, 1995, for the beneficial use of drinking water treatment sludge as a soil conditioner on agricultural land. The Department proposes to change the Sodium (Na) level of 50 mg/kg as specified in Condition no. 2 of the permits to 3,500 mg/kg.
The Department is authorized under the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101--6018.1003), and section 287.611(a) of the Residual Waste Management Regulations to issue or modify general permits for any category of beneficial use or processing of residual waste on a regional or Statewide basis when the Department determines that such use or modification will not harm or present a threat of harm to the health, safety or welfare of the public or the environment and the activity can be adequately regulated using standard permit conditions. The Department has determined that the Na level of 50 mg/kg is inordinately low when compared to naturally occurring Na levels in native Pennsylvania soils. A Na level of 3,500 mg/kg is believed to be a more realistic level and will continue to be protective of the soils and the environment in general.
Comments concerning the proposed general permit modification may be directed to Ronald C. Hassinger, Chief, General Permits and Beneficial Use Section, Division of Municipal and Residual Waste, P. O. Box 8472, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8472. Persons interested in obtaining more information about the general permit modification may contact the Division at (717) 787-7381.

Jefferson Township, Lackawanna County
The Department has completed reviewing the Act 537 Official Plan Revision for Jefferson Township, dated June 1995, including supplemental information as transmitted to us under cover of letters from John Devine, Smith Environmental Technologies Corporation, dated October 19, 1995, and January 16, 1996. The Department finds the plan revision acceptable and hereby grants planning approval for the proposed project.
The proposed plan, identified as Alternative III-A, calls for construction of a sewage collection and conveyance system and a 0.410 million gallons per day sewage treatment facility to serve large portions of the Township. The treatment plant will discharge to an unnamed tributary of the west branch Wallenpaupack Creek. The plan also calls for construction of a sewage collection system to serve the Moosic Lakes area, which will connect to the proposed Lackawanna River Basin Sewer Authority's Moosic Mountain Business Park interceptor. The Department's review of this plan revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.
In accordance with the provisions of the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20(a)) (Act 537), and Chapter 71 of the Department's Regulations (25 Pa. Code Ch. 71), the Department will hold Jefferson Township responsible for the complete and timely implementation of this plan.
Conceptual approval leaves to be addressed at a later date: (1) the effluent limitations to satisfy special protection requirements and to protect health and (2) specific treatment technologies.
Please note that the Department does not interpret the language contained in the plan and in the Adopting Resolution regarding PENNVEST funding to mean that implementation of the Plan is contingent upon receipt of a 1% interest rate loan from PENNVEST.
