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 any 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.

18-313-018D: Avery Dennison Chemical Division (US) (171 Draketown Road, Mill Hall, PA 17751-9601) for installation of an air cleaning device (a thermal oxidizer) on various batch chemical reactor systems at the company's facility in Bald Eagle Township, Clinton County.
The respective batch chemical reactor systems are used to manufacture adhesives, resins and coatings and emit VOCs, some of which are also HAPs. The proposed thermal oxidizer will replace two existing thermal oxidizers currently used to control the VOC/HAP emissions from the batch chemical reactor systems. The two existing thermal oxidizers will, however, be retained as backup control devices. The proposed thermal oxidizer will provide an equivalent level of control to that achieved by the two existing thermal oxidizers so there will be no change in the emission rates of VOCs or HAPs from the batch chemical reactor systems (maximum controlled emission rates of 2.08 tons of VOCs and 1.62 tons of HAPs per year).
Avery Dennison Chemical Division (US) has also proposed the reactivation of a storage tank which has been out of use for approximately 10 years. The reactivated storage tank will be used to store adhesives and will be equipped with a pressure vacuum valve to control VOCs and HAPs. The resultant VOC/HAP emissions are conservatively expected to be less than 1 ton per year.
The Department's review of the information contained in the application indicates that the respective batch chemical reactor systems will comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants following the installation of the proposed thermal oxidizer including the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and that the storage tank will do the same following its reactivation. Based on this finding, the Department intends to approve the application and issue plan approval for the installation of the thermal oxidizer and the reactivation of the storage tank.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. The thermal oxidizer shall be operated so that the oxidizer exit gas temperature is at least 1,600°F at all times any of the batch chemical reactor systems are in use except that the oxidizer may be bypassed or operated at an oxidizer temperature below 1,600°F for up to 30 minutes per month.
2. No more than 200 cubic feet per minute of process gas shall be vented to the thermal oxidizer at any time.
3. The only supplemental fuel to be used in the thermal oxidizer shall be natural gas.
4. The thermal oxidizer shall be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor and record the oxidizer's outlet temperature as well as with instrumentation to continuously monitor and record the flow of process gas to the oxidizer.
5. The thermal oxidizer shall be equipped with a programmable logic controller which regulates the ratio of process gas and air introduced to the oxidizer.
6. Within 120 days of startup of the thermal oxidizer, VOC stacktesting shall be performed.
7. The reactivated storage tank shall be equipped with a pressure vacuum valve set to release at no less than 1.0 psig pressure and .3 psig vacuum.
8. No materials shall be stored in the reactivated storage tank other than those identified in the plan approval application unless prior Department approval is obtained.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988 Proposed Consent Order and Agreement Chester Parking Authority--Wade Site
Chester, Delaware CountyUnder section 1113 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has entered into a Prospective Purchaser Consent Order and Agreement (CO&A) with the Chester Parking Authority (CPA) concerning the reuse of the Wade Site (Site).
The Site consists of approximately 3 acres located along the Delaware River in Chester, Delaware County. During the 1970s, hazardous substances were disposed at the Site and these substances contaminated the environment at the Site. In the 1980s, the Department along with the EPA, conducted response actions to address the release or threatened release of hazardous substances at the Site. The CPA now wishes to purchase the Site with the intention of constructing parking facilities for public use as a part of a larger redevelopment plan for the Delaware River waterfront. In exchange for a covenant not to sue and contribution protection from the Department, the CPA will make a payment towards the Department's response costs and will redevelop the property in a constructive manner.
The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the CO&A between the Department and the CPA. The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the CO&A for 60 days from the date of this public notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the CO&A if comments received during the public comment period disclose facts or considerations which indicate that the CO&A is inappropriate, improper or not in the public interest. After the public comment period, the Department's settlement with the CPA shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies the CPA, in writing, that this CO&A is final and effective in its present form and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the CO&A or that no comments were received.
Copies of the CO&A are available for inspection at the Department's Southeast Regional Office. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Dustin Armstrong, Department of Environmental Protection, Hazardous Sites Cleanup Program, Lee Park, Suite 6010, 555 North Lane, Conshohocken, PA, 19428. Further information may be obtained by calling Dustin Armstrong, (610) 832-6000. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Services at (800) 645-5984.
