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.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988 NOTICE OF PROMPT INTERIM RESPONSE Intercourse TCE Site Leacock Township, Lancaster County, PA The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) has initiated a prompt interim response at the Intercourse TCE Site (Site). The prompt interim response has been initiated under sections 501(a) and 505(b) of the HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.501(a) and 6020.505(b)).
The site is located in Leacock Township, Lancaster County. Groundwater serving a number of residential wells in the area of Intercourse is contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE), a VOC. This residential area is located about 8 to 10 miles east of Lancaster City which is the nearest public water supply.
Department considered three alternatives:
1. Institutional Controls: The Department would use institutional controls to limit the use of groundwater. Individuals would be notified of the health risks for continued use of contaminated private water supplies. Institutional controls such as deed notices or deed restrictions would be placed on record that would alert new property owners, during property transactions, of the contaminated groundwater. Deed notices are attached to the deed to inform prospective property purchasers of the contamination present at the property. Deed restrictions placed on property deeds would restrict or limit future site activities to prevent human contact with contaminated groundwater, and place limitations on the use of groundwater without adequate treatment. This alternative would not remove the actual exposure of the residents to the hazardous substances in the groundwater and would not be protective of human health and the environment unless the individual property owners initiated measures to limit their exposure. This alternative would not comply with applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) for the site. The annual analytical cost for the groundwater monitoring in this alternative is $4,000.
2. Bottled Water: This alternative provides for the Department to furnish commercial bottled water to the impacted residences. Bottled water would be delivered regularly to each residence that has a water supply contaminated in excess of the MCL for TCE. This would effectively remove the risk posed by ingestion, but would not remove the risk posed by inhalation and dermal contact. This alternative would reduce the negative health impact of using the contaminated groundwater for private water supplies and thus provide an increase in protection of human health and the environment. The present cost of this alternative for the known 38 residential supplies that exceed the MCL for TCE, and do not have a treatment system, is approximately $10,000 per year.
3. Point-Of Use Water Treatment Units: This alternative provides for the Department to install carbon treatment systems on the supply line of private wells that are contaminated. The Department will provide continuing laboratory monitoring of these systems and provide maintenance of these units until a final remedial decision for the site. This is not a permanent solution and would require continued actions by the Department to monitor and operate the units. The remedy would need to be continued until the Department completes an investigation of the area to determine the possible source of contamination and final remediation alternatives. The carbon treatment systems would effectively remove the risk posed by ingestion, inhalation and dermal contact. This alternative will be protective of human health and the environment. Initial installation of a carbon treatment system is estimated to cost $3,670 per unit, currently 4 units. Annual carbon change out and UV light replacement is estimated at $1,415. Sampling and analytical monitoring costs are estimated at $1,040 a year per system.
The Department has selected Alternatives 2 and 3 as prompt interim responses. Alternative 2, Bottled Water, was initiated on February 1, 2006 for residences with water supply contamination levels greater than 5 ppb of TCE but less than 25 ppb. Bottled water delivery will continue until a more permanent solution is provided. Alternative 3, Point of Use Water Treatment Systems, will be provided for residences that have TCE levels greater than the inhalation risk numeric value of 25 ppb TCE in their water supply. These systems will be monitored and maintained by the Department until further notice.
The Department is providing this notice under sections 505(b) and 506(b) of the HSCA, and the publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin starts the administrative record period under the HSCA. The administrative record which contains information about this site and which supports the Department's decision to perform this action at the site is available for public review and comment. The administrative record can be examined Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southcentral Regional Office located at 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Crystal Snook at (717) 705-6645. The Administrative Record can also be reviewed at the Leacock Township Building, 3545 West Newport Road, Intercourse, PA, (717) 768-8585 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
The administrative record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin on April 29, 2006, and will remain open for 90 days. Persons may submit written comments regarding this action to the Department before July 28, 2006, by mailing them to Crystal Snook at the DEP Southcentral Regional Office, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-8200.
