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 AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

59-304-008G: ACP Manufacturing Co., LLC (P. O. Box 68, Blossburg, PA 16912) for modification of a cast iron parts surface coating dip tank in the company's iron foundry facility in Lawrence Township, Tioga County.
The respective dip tank is used to coat cast iron parts to provide corrosion resistance. The respective modification is an increase in the allowable VOC emission limitation for the dip tank from the current limit of .9 ton of VOC in any 12-consecutive month period to 3.72 tons of VOCs in any 12-consecutive month period. The increase in the allowable VOC emissions for the facility as a whole however will be only 1.82 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, rather than 2.82 tons, due to the fact that ACP Manufacturing Co., LLC was previously allowed to emit up to 1.0 ton of VOCs from cleanup activities associated with the operation of the dip tank but will no longer need to perform these activities with VOC-containing materials.
The facility will remain a minor (non-Title V) facility following the proposed modification.
The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information submitted by ACP Manufacturing Co., LLC indicates that the dip tank will comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants following modification, including the VOC emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 129.52 and the best available technology requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12. Based on this finding, the Department of Environmental Protection proposes to issue plan approval for the modification of the dip tank.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements:
1. The VOC emissions from the dip tank shall not exceed 3.72 tons in any 12-consecutive month period.
2. The only materials which shall be placed in the dip tank, other than water and the parts to be coated, are coating which contains no more than .12 pound of VOCs per gallon of coating (as received from the vendor) and flow control additive which contains no more than 8.3 pounds of VOCs per gallon of additive (as received from the vendor). Additionally, neither the coating nor the flow control additive shall contain any volatile HAPs.
3. Over any 12-consecutive month period, no more than 1 gallon of flow control additive shall be added to the dip tank for every 31.6 gallons of coating added. Additionally, no more than 19,118 gallons of coating and 605.62 gallons of flow control additive shall be added to the dip tank in any 12-consecutive month period.
4. The only material to be used for cleanup activities associated with the dip tank shall be water. VOC-containing materials and/or volatile HAP-containing materials shall not be used for this purpose.
5. The dip tank shall comply with the applicable VOC content limit specified in Table 1, Category 10, 25 Pa. Code § 129.52(f) on a 30 day rolling average basis as required by 25 Pa. Code § 129.52(b)(1)(ii).
6. Comprehensive accurate records shall be maintained of the identity and amount of each material (coating, flow control additive, and the like) added to the dip tank on each separate day. Records shall be retained for at least 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.

This permit is requested for a flood protection project in and along approximately 2,040 linear feet (approximately 1.8 acres) of a UNT (intermittent flow through 1,795 feet of buried culvert and 245 feet of open channel) to Moshannon Creek. See the USGS ''Houtzdale'' Quadrangle, North 18.8 inches, West 2.3 inches. The following activities are associated with the construction of this project:
* Remove approximately 1,960 feet of existing undersized and dilapidated culvert (locally known as 'the canal') from a point 40 feet upstream of 2nd Avenue to a point 120 feet downstream of Logan Street.
* At the upstream end of the project (between the SR 53 culvert outlet and 2nd Avenue), construct 80 feet of 7-foot-wide by 5-foot-high cast-in-place concrete rectangular channel.
* Through the middle of the project (between 2nd Avenue and Logan Street), install 1,795 feet of 6-foot-wide by 4 1/2-foot-high precast concrete box culvert.
* At the downstream end of the project (between Logan Street and Moshannon Creek), construct 140 feet of 6-foot-wide by 2-foot-high cast-in-place concrete rectangular channel with stone riprap slope protection extending from the tops of the walls up to the surrounding ground surface, followed by 25 feet of 6-foot-base-width trapezoidal stone riprap channel to Moshannon Creek.
* Other work includes connecting existing street drains to the new culvert, adjusting existing sanitary sewer lines that conflict with project construction, restoring road pavements that have been removed or damaged during construction, and grading and seeding all areas that have been disturbed during construction.

E3514-001, Department of General Services, Bureau of Engineering and Architecture, 18th and Herr Streets, Harrisburg, PA 17125, Meadow Brook Flood Control Project, City of Scranton, Lackawanna County, USACOE Baltimore District.
This notice is a request to reissue a permit for a flood protection project in and along approximately 3,524 linear feet (approximately 4.5 acres) of Meadow Brook. Permit No. E35-356, which was previously issued for this work, inadvertently expired December 31, 2005. The project begins 180 feet upstream of Green Ridge Street (USGS ''Scranton'' Quadrangle, North 9.5 inches, West 3.2 inches) and extends to Meadow Brook's confluence with the Lackawanna River (USGS ''Scranton'' Quadrangle, North 9.0 inches, West 4.6 inches).
In November 2005, under a Federal contract, the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District, began construction of an earthen levee flood protection project along the east bank of the Lackawanna River. That work is scheduled to be complete in March 2007. Since the levee system will cross the Meadow Brook outfall, the pipe sections at the outfall of the state's Meadow Brook project must be installed before the Corps can extend their levee across and beyond Meadow Brook. Therefore, it is imperative that the Meadow Brook project begins as soon as possible. Delays in starting construction of the Meadow Brook project will almost certainly result in delays and cost increases in the Corps project.
The following activities are associated with the Meadow Brook project:
* Remove existing culverts and stream enclosures along a 3,524-foot reach of Meadow Brook.
* Construct and maintain a 16-foot long concrete transition culvert between the upstream end existing culvert and a new 10-foot wide by 7-foot high concrete box culvert.
* Construct and maintain 1,806 linear feet of 10-foot-wide by 7-foot high concrete box culvert.
* Construct and maintain 231 linear feet of 10-foot wide by 7-foot high concrete open channel.
* Construct and maintain a 14-foot long concrete transition structure between the 10-foot wide by 7-foot high concrete open channel and a new 10.5-foot diameter concrete pipe culvert.
* Install and maintain 360 linear feet of 10.5-foot diameter concrete pipe culvert.
* Construct and maintain a 22-foot long concrete transition culvert between the 10.5-foot diameter concrete pipe culvert and a new 12-foot wide by 8.5-foot high concrete box culvert.
* Construct and maintain 188 linear feet of 12-foot wide by 8.5-foot high concrete box culvert.
* Construct and maintain a 22-foot long concrete transition culvert between the 12-foot wide by 8.5-foot high concrete box culvert and a new 12-foot diameter concrete pipe culvert.
* Install and maintain 814 linear feet of 12-foot diameter concrete pipe culvert. At pipe outlet, construct and maintain concrete end walls and a 53-foot long grouted R-7 riprap apron.
* Construct and maintain approximately 11 stormwater outfall penetrations varying in size from 18-inch diameter to 48-inch diameter at various locations along the flood control project.
Anticipated construction time is 18 months.

Section VII contains notices for parties who have submitted NOIs for coverage under general NPDES permits. The approval for coverage under general NPDES permits is subject to applicable effluent limitations, monitoring, reporting requirements and other conditions set forth in each general permit. The approval of coverage for land application of sewage sludge or residential septage under applicable general permit is subject to pollutant limitations, pathogen and vector attraction reduction requirements, operational standards, general requirements, management practices and other conditions set forth in the respective permit. Permits and related documents, effluent limitations, permitting requirements and other information are on file and may be inspected and arrangements made for copying at the contact office noted before the action.
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.

Matamoras, PA 18336Pike Plan Description: Under an Order of the Federal District Court of the Middle District of Pennsylvania, the Special Study addresses the projected future sewage facility needs of the Katz properties within the established service area of the Westfall Township Municipal Authority's wastewater treatment facility and reflects a redistribution of the future sewage needs within the service area. The Special Study calls for construction of a sewage collection line to Service Area A of the existing service area from an existing manhole at the intersection of Mountain Avenue and Mountain Avenue East, along Mountain Avenue to the property line of the Westfall Commercial Property and to the entrance of Rosetown at Rosetown Trail. The service line will allow sewer service to be provided to the Katz properties and to other properties in the vicinity. The Special Study also provides for increasing the treatment facility capacity to 0.820 million gallons per day, consistent with the Township's Act 537 Plan approved by the Department on May 17, 2001, and NPDES Permit No. PA0061611. When land development activities actually commence on the Katz properties, the developer, in cooperation with the Township, will prepare and submit the appropriate sewage planning modules to revise the Township's Official Plan for the specific sewage needs of the Katz properties. The approved project will require a Water Quality Management Permit for the construction and operation of the proposed sewage facilities.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP
UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988Proposed Consent Order and Agreement Quality Service Cleaners Site, Oxford Borough, Chester County Under section 1113 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. § 6020.1113), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has entered into a Consent Order and Agreement (CO&A) with Martha Skelton (Skelton) concerning the cleanup of the Quality Service Cleaners Site (Site) located at 642 Lincoln Avenue, Oxford, PA.
In the past, hazardous substances were released at the Site and these substances contaminated the environment. The Department has characterized soil and groundwater contamination at the Site and anticipates that further response action will be necessary to mitigate the threat to human health and the environment posed by the hazardous substances on Site. The Department has conducted a phased Site Investigation, which included the removal of contaminated soil, and is currently conducting a Feasibility Study to determine what, if any, response actions are needed to address remaining hazardous substances at the Site in both soil and groundwater. Skelton has owned the property since 1973. From 1973 to 2005 the Site was operated as a dry cleaning establishment. Skelton is a potentially ''responsible person'' as defined in section 103 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.103). Under the terms of the CO&A, in the event that Skelton sells the Site or any portion thereof, all net proceeds will be paid to the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Fund. In the event of Skelton's death, any portion of the Site remaining in Skelton's possession will be sold. Net proceeds from this sale will be paid to the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Fund. All payments made to the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Fund as a result of this agreement shall be treated as a credit toward any ultimate allocation to Skelton of overall response costs associated with the site.
The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the CO&A between the Department and Skelton. 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 the comments concerning the CO&A 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 Skelton shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies Skelton, 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 such 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 A. Armstrong, Department of Environmental Protection, Hazardous Sites Cleanup, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401. Further information may be obtained by contacting Dustin A. Armstrong at (484) 250-5723. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Services at 800-645-5984.
Settlement under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Puritan Cleaners Site, City of Altoona, Blair County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675), has entered into a proposed settlement with Charles and Sandra Kaminsky, individually, Kamin DC, Inc. d/b/a Puritan Cleaners and CSK Enterprises, Inc. d/b/a Puritan Cleaners (collectively Settlor).
The proposed settlement resolves claims of the Department with the Settlor under HSCA, CERCLA and other applicable law for response costs that have been expended and will be incurred by the Department at the Puritan Cleaners Site located in the City of Altoona, Blair County, PA.
The proposed settlement obligates the Settlor to remit $65,000 to the Department. The Department believes that the proposed settlement is fair, reasonable, practicable, in the public interest and in furtherance of the statutory goals of HSCA and CERCLA.
For a period of 60 days beginning with the May 20, 2006, publication date of this notice, the public is invited to review the Consent Order and Agreement (CO&A), Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Department's Southcentral Region Office, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110 by contacting Asuquo Effiong, (717) 705-4853.
After review, the public may submit written comments on the CO&A before July 19, 2006, by mailing them to Asuquo Effiong at the Department's Harrisburg Office at the address previously noted. A person adversely affected by the settlement may also file an appeal from the CO&A to the Environmental Hearing Board.
Questions concerning this notice should be directed to Asuquo Effiong at the telephone number and address previously noted.
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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 3
The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8, administration 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 final actions on 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 remediation standards of the act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Plans and reports required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice of the plan or report appears.
