LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.908).
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. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

AIR QUALITY PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, 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.
The Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.
Copies of the 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 a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate their interest to the Department 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 Department 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. Comments or protests filed with the Department 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 the Department 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 before the application. TDD users should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

The samples are to be sealed and identified with the identity of the supplier, the date of delivery, the delivery invoice number, and the total gallons of WDLF in the shipment.
• For at least one (1) out of every fifteen (15) shipments of WDLF received at the facility, the owner or operator shall take an additional sample for the purpose of conducting a complete analysis for all the properties listed previously. The owner or operator shall use test methods specified previously, unless an alternate test method has been approved in writing by the Department. Aside from any sample taken from a shipment of WDLF received at the facility, the owner or operator need not store such additionally-sampled fuel separately nor delay its use. If the analysis results on such fuel are not received within fifteen (15) days of the date of delivery of the relevant shipment, the permittee shall cease using the WDLF fuel from the tank(s) in which the relevant shipment was placed until compliance with the limits listed previously is verified in the laboratory results. This auditing provision should not be interpreted, in any event, to allow the owner or operator to accept knowingly or use fuel not meeting permit specifications, or to accept or use fuel for which the facility does not have documentation from the waste oil supplier regarding compliance with permit specifications. If the analysis results show exceedances of any of the limits listed previously, then the owner or operator shall cease using the WDLF from the tank(s) in which the relevant shipment was placed, and shall not resume using WDLF from the tank(s) until either:
• The Department has granted written approval to resume use of the WDLF based on an alternate demonstration of acceptability of the WDLF in the tank(s) for use as fuel at the facility, or
• The WDLF remaining in the tank(s) has been re-sampled and
• If the re-sample meets the limits listed previously, the Department has granted written permission to resume using the WDLF, or
• If the re-sample fails to meet the limits listed previously, the Department has granted written permission to resume using the tank(s) after the owner or operator has emptied the WDLF from the tank(s) and has made proper disposal arrangements. The owner or operator shall cease using the WDLF from such tank(s) not later than two (2) hours after making the original determination, or having had reasonable opportunity to make the determination that off-specification WDLF was placed in the tanks. Upon successful demonstration for each supplier of their accuracy in ensuring delivery of eight (8) consecutive samples of on-specification WDLF fuels that comply with properties listed previously, the auditing frequency of shipments may be decreased by the Department. The auditing frequencies shall be determined for each individual supplier on a case by case basis depending on recorded compliance history and margin of compliance.
• The Department reserves the right to random sample any alternative fuels to check if they meet the same specifications as other fuels permitted under this plan approval. In the case of WDLF, if the analysis results from any random tank sampling conducted by the Department show exceedances of any of the limits listed previously, the owner or operator shall cease using WDLF from the affected tank(s) and shall not resume using WDLF from the tank(s) until either:
• The Department has granted written approval to resume use of the WDLF based on an alternate demonstration of compliance for the original sample; or
• The Department has granted written permission to resume placing WDLF in the tank(s) after the owner or operator has emptied the off-specification WDLF from the tank(s) and has made proper disposal arrangements. The owner or operator shall cease using the WDLF from such tank(s) not later than 2 hours after receiving notification from the Department of the exceedances.

[Continued from previous Web Page] 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 (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001); the Coal Refuse Disposal Act (52 P. S. §§ 30.51—30.66); The Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1406.1—1406.21). Mining activity permits issued in response to such applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4015); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1—693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101—6018.1003).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department). A copy of the application is available for inspection at the District Mining Office indicated above each application. Where a 401 Water Quality Certification is needed for any aspect of a particular proposed mining activity, the submittal of the permit application will serve as the request for the certification.
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 any person or any officer or head of any Federal, State or local government agency or authority to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated above 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 related to a mining permit application should contain the name, address and telephone number of persons submitting comments or objections; 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.
Requests 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 a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (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 found in Table 2. Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in the 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 below 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 found in Technical Guidance Document 362-0600-001, NPDES Program Implementation—Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Water Quality Management, NPDES Program Implementation and Related Matters. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs).
Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES permit application should submit a statement to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated previously 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. Comments 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 shall contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request, and shall 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. In the case where 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, 1988Public Notice of First Modification to the June 5, 2009 Consent Order and Agreement
Department of Environmental Protection
Former Cardinal Home Products, Inc. Facility Linesville Borough, Crawford CountyUnder section 1113 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305, notice is hereby provided that the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has agreed to modify the June 5, 2009 Consent Order and Agreement (June 5, 2009 Agreement) among Linesville Realty Corporation (LRC) and the Economic Alliance Foundation, Inc. (EAF) to transfer LRC's remedial obligations for the former Cardinal Home Products, Inc. facility (site) to EAF. EAF agreed to continue to remediate the site. The site is located on approximately 6 acres of land at North Pymatuning and Conneaut Streets in Linesville Borough, Crawford County, PA.
In the past, hazardous substances, including at least, Trichloroethylene and/or Cis-1, 2-Dichlorethene were released and contaminated the environment at the site. Under the terms of the settlement, EAF will continue to implement the remediation plan currently operating there. The further investigation and remediation actions at the site will continue until EAF demonstrates attainment of one or a combination of Cleanup Standards under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act, 35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.909, (act 2). EAF submited for Department approval, a written schedule for the response action(s) to obtain the proposed Cleanup Standard(s) under act 2. The agreement requires LRS to provide funding to EAF for the remediation activities. In exchange, the Department will relieve LRC of its obligations to remediate the site. The operation funding for the Remediation Systems set forth in the June 5, 2009, Agreement specified a reserve of $500,000 to allow for an annual budget of $60,000. The actual annual cost of the Remediation Systems is now less than $25,000, indicating a reduction of the reserve to $60,000 is sufficient to maintain the remediation plan at the site. Accordingly, the June 5, 2009, Agreement is being modified to require EAF to continuously maintain a reserve fund of $60,000 until the Remediation Systems are no longer required.
The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the Modification to Consent Order and Agreement (Agreement) among the Department, EAF and LRC. The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the Agreement for 60 days from the date of this Public Notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the Agreement if the comments concerning the Agreement disclose facts or considerations that indicate that the Agreement is inappropriate, improper or not in the public interest.
After the public comment period, the Department's settlement among EAF and LRC shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies EAF and LRC, in writing, that this Agreement is final and effective in its present form, and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the Agreement, or that no such comments were received.
The Agreement is available for inspection and copying at the Department's office at 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Mr. Eric Gustafson, Regional Manager, Environmental Cleanup Program, Department of Environmental Protection, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335. Further information may be obtained by contacting Mr. Gustafson at 814-332-6648. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 645-5984.
LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.908).
Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (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, shall 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 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. 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 after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with the applicable provisions of 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, 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.

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.

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 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, 1988Settlement under The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and The Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act Keystone Instruments, Inc.
Clinton CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305 (HSCA), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 9601—9675 (CERCLA), and the Radiation Protection Act, the Act of July 10, 1984, 35 P. S. § 7110.101 et seq. (RPA), has entered into a proposed Consent Order and Agreement for Inability to Pay Settlement with Keystone Instruments, Inc. and its President and sole shareholder, David W. Stover, Sr., (collectively the Settlers).
The proposed settlement resolves claims of the Department with the Settlers under HSCA, CERCLA, RPA and other applicable law for response costs expended by the Department at the Keystone Instruments Site (Site) located in Castanea Township, Clinton County, PA.
The Settlers used the property since the mid 1960s to the present for the repair and maintenance of aircraft instruments, many of which contained radium paint, resulting in widespread radium contamination of the building and soils immediately adjacent to the building. Settlers have failed to and are unable to comply with certain critical requirements of a 2008 Consent Order with the Department.
The proposed settlement obligates the Settlers to terminate all business and non-business operations at the Site, and to vacate the Site of all employees by no later than March 24, 2010. Settlers grant the Department and its designated agents, including contractors and responsible persons under the direction of the Department, access to and entry upon the Site to perform response actions. Settlers agree to the filing of a lien on the Site with the Clinton County Recorder of Deeds in the amount of $1,000,000. The Department will be listed as the creditor for the lien.
The Department believes that the proposed settlement is fair, reasonable, practicable, in the public interest, and in furtherance of the statutory goals of HSCA, CERCLA and RPA.
For a period of 60 (sixty) days beginning with the April 3, 2010, publication date of this Notice, the public is invited to review the Consent Order and Agreement memorializing the settlement, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, at the Lock Haven City Hall, 20 East Church Street, Lock Haven, PA or by calling Kathy Arndt to arrange an appointment from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, at the Department's Northcentral Field Operations Office, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701, (570) 327-3636.
After review, the public may submit written comments on the Consent Order and Agreement, before June 3, 2010, by mailing them to Denny Wright, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701. A person adversely affected by the settlement may also file an appeal from the Consent Order and Agreement to the Environmental Hearing Board. Any questions concerning this Notice should be directed to Denny Wright, at the telephone number and address noted previously.
