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.

SPECIAL NOTICES
BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY Approval of Request for Variance The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (Bureau) has approved RoxCoal, Inc.'s request for a variance from the requirements of section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act (act) at the Roytown Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Allison Gaida at (724) 439-7469 or from the Bureau's website at www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/deputate/minres/dms/dms.htm.
Summary of the Request: RoxCoal, Inc. requested a variance from section 242(c) of the act to allow for the common ventilation of belt conveyor entry with other entries at the Roytown Mine. The proposal accords protections to persons and property substantially equal to or greater than the requirements set forth in the act.
The basis for the Bureau's approval is summarized as follows:
1. The Pyott-Boone 9500 CO Monitoring System will provide advance warning of a developing mine fire originating in the conveyor belt entry. When maintained and operating correctly, this system provides warnings much earlier than the point type heat sensors.
2. Common entries would permit the larger section mantrip and scoops access to belt entry for transportation of personnel and supplies.
3. The operator will maintain a separate isolated intake escapeway that is at a higher air pressure than the belt and common entries.
4. The plan provides for the common entries to serve as an alternate intake escapeway. There will be a total of three separate, isolated escape routes.
This approval is limited to a variance from the requirements in section 242(c) of the act requiring that the belt entry is isolated from other entries. All other terms and requirements of section 242(c) of the act shall remain in effect. Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in the plan and the following conditions:
1. All mine employees shall be task trained in the Pyott Boone Model 9500 CO monitoring system alert and alarm response procedures. These procedures shall also be included in the 8-hour annual retraining.
2. As part of the requirements of section 228 of the act, all belt entries, common entries, and unfenced roadways shall be preshifted in their entirety.
3. A preshift date board should be placed at each CO sensor location.
4. Designated areas shall be established (with approval from the District Inspector) at strategic locations along the belt entry and common entries to determine whether the air is traveling in the proper course and normal volume. This air reading shall be taken by a scientific means (anemometer, chemical smoke tube, velometer) and recorded in the preshift examination record book.
5. The investigative committee shall conduct an underground ventilation survey when the belt and common entries are established to verify pressure differential between the intake escapeway and the common entries.
6. The investigative committee shall evaluate the visual and audible alarms during the installation process.
7. A list of designated surface personnel shall be forwarded to the District Inspector upon activation of the CO Monitoring System. Copies of the task training records shall also be forwarded to the District Inspector.
8. The investigators shall interview supervisory and non-supervisory personnel upon commencement of mining operations.
9. The operator must ascertain whether or not the belt compounds used in the mine produce CO when burnt. Should the operator use a non-CO producing compound in the mine, additional sensors must be used in conjunction with the CO detectors to provide the early warning benefits of the monitoring system.
