Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907)
Sections 302—305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.302—6026.305) require the 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. A person intending to use the background standard, Statewide health standard, the site-specific standard or intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area shall 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 or a combination of cleanup standards or 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 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 following site, 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 as follows. 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 listed before the notice. 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.

This is a result of removing a large source of non contact cooling water. Remaining milestones include the systematic replacement of sanitary sewers, bypass manhold modification and existing drying bed rehabilitation. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988Notice of Proposed Interim Response
Hilltop TCE, Limerick Township,
Montgomery CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department) under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.102—6020.1303) is proposing an interim response at Hilltop TCE, Limerick Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The Site is located along School Road, North Limerick Road, Koch Drive, and Haines Drive. The site includes approximately 4 private wells impacted with Volatile Organic Compounds above federal safe drinking water act Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs). The area of the site consists mostly of rural residential properties.
In June 2000, the Montgomery County Health Department contact the Department about a recently constructed well with elevated levels of TCE. HSCA began an investigation to locate impacted homes. Over 30 homes have been sampled by the Department. Sampling has occurred during a period exceeding 10 years. A GTAC investigation was initiated in 2002 to discover a source area. Several monitoring wells were also installed in the site area and sampled to assist in delimitating the plume; concentration levels have been on a decline. No source area was discovered. Annual sampling has been taking place to monitor the concentration at the site. The Department has also been providing bottled water or change outs of spent carbon filtration systems to impacted homes.
Volatile Organic Compounds have been released in the area with an unknown source. The MCL for both TCE and PCE is 5 Parts per billion (ppb Most of the levels of TCE detected in affected residential wells are between below 1 to 10 ppb and most levels of PCE detected are between below 1 to 5 ppb. The highest concentrations were detected at 2000 ppb for TCE and 330 for PCE.
To address the release and threat of release of hazardous substances at the Site, and corresponding threats to human health and the environment, the Department proposes a response action at the Site under Sections 501(a) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.501(a). The Department hereby proposes the installation of whole house carbon filtration units on affected private residential water supplies with concentrations exceeding the MCL. This proposed alternative complies with Applicable, Relevant and Appropriate Requirements (ARARs) and is feasible and cost-effective. Other possible alternatives include taking no action, the installation of a public waterline and continuing to provide bottled water.
An Administrative Record, which contains more detailed information concerning this interim response action, is available for public inspection. The Administrative Record may be examined from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm at the Department's office at 2 East Main Street, Norristown PA 19401. Those interested in examining the Administrative Record should contact the Megan Harkins at (484) 250-5721 or William Blasberg at (484) 250-5865 to arrange for an appointment. An additional copy of the Administrative Record is available for review at the Limerick Township Municipal Building located at 646 West Ridge Pike, Limerick, PA 19468.
The Department will conduct a public hearing on June 30, 2011 at 7:00 pm at the Limerick Township Municipal Building located at 646 West Ridge Pike, Limerick, PA 19468. Anyone who would like to present formal oral comments regarding this proposed response may do so by registering with the Department before the meeting.

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—6026.907).
Provisions of Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the 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, will 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 reuse 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.
