HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP

Under the Act of October 18, 1988

Notice of Interim Response

Boldan Landfill

Penn Township, Westmoreland County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304), is proposing a response action for the Boldan Landfill. The Boldan Landfill is located at the end of Bolen Lane in Penn Township, Westmoreland County. The Boldan Landfill consists of 118 acres of abandoned landfill. Boldan Landfill received both industrial and municipal waste from 1958 to 1970. The Department will hold a public hearing concerning the proposed action on June 27, 2001, in the Harrison Room, Penn Township, Westmoreland County at 7 p.m.

   An unknown quantity of industrial waste was dumped or buried at the site. Several exposed drums containing various wastes are present at the site. Adjacent to the exposed drums, there are several mounded areas that are suspected to contain numerous additional drums. Two unnamed tributaries border the site and receive flow from several leachate seeps originating in the landfill. Several sampling events were conducted at the site with hazardous contaminants detected in the soil and surface water. Contaminants are leaving the site via the leachate seeps to the unnamed tributaries. The Boldan Landfill currently poses a substantial threat to public health, safety and the environment.

   The Department has considered several alternatives for a response at the site including:

   1.  No action;

   2.  Restricting the site; and

   3.  Conducting an investigation

   The Department has determined that conducting a further investigation at the site is the appropriate alternative. The Department chose this alternative because it complies with section 501(a) of the HSCA and is the only alternative that is protective of human health and the environment. An investigation would provide the Department with the information required to determine if additional remediation efforts are necessary at the site to protect human health and the environment. The Department's proposed action is intended to fully characterize the site and enable the Department to determine the most appropriate method to remediate the site.

   This notice is being provided under section 506(b) of the HSCA. The administrative record which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this response action is available for public review and comment. The administrative record is located at the Department's Southwest Regional Office in Pittsburgh and is available for review Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

   The administrative record will be open for comment from May 26, 2001, until August 24, 2001. Persons may submit written comments into the record during this time only, by sending them to Kevin Halloran, Environmental Cleanup Program, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, or by delivering them to the Southwest Regional Office in person.

   In addition, persons may present oral comments, for inclusion in the administrative record, at a public hearing. The Department has scheduled the hearing on Wednesday, June 27, 2001, at 7 p.m., at the Harrison Room, 1010 Mill Street, Harrison City. Persons wishing to present comments must register with Betsy Mallison before June 25, 2001, by telephone at [phone] or in writing at 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222.

   Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceedings, should call Betsy Mallison at [phone] or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at [phone] (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

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 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, or 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 of Environmental Protection Regional Office under 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 listed. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at [phone].

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP

Under the Act of October 18, 1988
North Penn Area 8 Site, Skippack Township,
Montgomery County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§  6020.101--6020.1305) is proposing an interim response at the North Penn Area 8 Site in Skippack Township, Montgomery County, PA. This response is proposed under sections 501(a) and 505(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.501(a) and 6020.505(b)).

   The North Penn Area 8 Site (Site) is located in the vicinity of Store Road and Skippack Pike, Skippack Township, Montgomery County. The Site consists of an area of groundwater contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE). The source of the contamination is not known. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) investigated the site for possible inclusion in the Federal Superfund program in 1993. The Site was placed on the No Further Remedial Action Planned (NFRAP) list and subsequently referred to HSCA in 1998 as part of its ongoing investigation of NFRAP sites.

   Since the investigation began, TCE levels in private wells at the Site have been as high as 350 parts-per-billion (ppb). The EPA has established 5 ppb as the maximum permissible level for safe drinking water. The Department has been providing bottled drinking water to residents with moderately contaminated wells, and carbon filters were installed on homes with highly contaminated wells, to protect residents from an inhalation hazard. These services were provided while the Department conducted a more thorough investigation and examined alternatives for a permanent solution.

   The Department is considering three alternatives. The first alternative, no action, would allow for the continued use of a contaminated aquifer as a source of drinking water. While this alternative would incur no costs, it does not protect human health or the environment. The second alternative, installation of whole-house carbon filtration systems, is not a permanent solution as it would require continued actions by the Department to monitor and operate the units as long as contamination persists. The estimated cost of this alternative is $1.6 million. The third alternative, consists of installation of lateral connections from affected residences to the existing North Penn Water Authority main, and the abandonment of disused wells. The estimated cost of this alternative is $170,000.

   The Department proposes the third alternative, installation of lateral connections to the public water supply. This alternative is protective of public health and the environment, complies with applicable, relevant and appropriate requirements, and is feasible, permanent and cost effective.

   The Department is providing this notice under sections 505(b) and 506(b) of HSCA, and the publication of this notice starts the administrative record public comment period. The administrative record, which contains information concerning this proposed interim response action is available for public review and comment. The administrative record may be examined weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office located at Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428. Contact Grant Morehead, Site Project Officer, at [phone] to set up an appointment. The administrative record may also be reviewed at the Skippack Township Building, 1264 Bridge Road, Skippack PA 19474. The township office number is [phone].

   The administrative record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and will remain open for 90 days. Persons may submit written comments regarding this action to the Department by mailing them to Grant Morehead at the Department of Environmental Protection, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken PA 19428. All comments must be postmarked by August 24, 2001.

   The public will have an opportunity to present oral comments at a public hearing regarding this interim response. The hearing will take place Thursday, June 28, 2001, at the Skippack Township Building, 1264 Bridge Road, Skippack PA 19474. There will be a question and answer session beginning at 4:30 p.m. and the formal hearing will start at 7 p.m. Persons wishing to present formal oral comment at the hearing should register on or before 4 p.m., June 28, 2001, by calling the Department's Community Relations Coordinator, Deborah Fries at [phone].

   Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service, or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings, should call Deborah Fries at the above number or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at [phone] (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

PENNSYLVANIA PRIORITY LIST OF HAZARDOUS SITES FOR REMEDIAL RESPONSE

   1.  Background

   The Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) was enacted in 1988 to provide for the cleanup of Pennsylvania sites that are releasing or threatening the release of hazardous substances. Section 502(a) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.502(a)) requires that the Department publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a priority list of sites with releases or threatened releases for the purpose of taking remedial response. This list is called the Pennsylvania Priority List of Hazardous Sites for Remedial Response (PAPL). The Department places sites on the PAPL when the Department has determined through investigation that there are releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, or releases or substantial threatened releases of contaminants which present a substantial danger. In accordance with the requirements of Section 502(a) of HSCA, the Hazard Ranking System (HRS; 40 CFR Part 300, Appendix A), established under the Federal Superfund Act, as amended, is utilized to rank the sites for placement on the PAPL. The HRS uses mathematical formulas that reflect the relative importance and interrelationships of the various human health and environmental factors to arrive at a final score on a scale of 0 to 100. The values are assigned using information obtained from site investigations. Section 502(a) of HSCA also directs the Department to consider its administrative, enforcement, and financial capabilities when placing sites on the PAPL. HRS scores are finalized by the Department using the HRS in effect at the time the score is prepared and the proposed listing notice is issued under HSCA section 502(c).

   The HRS was developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as the method used to evaluate the relative potential of hazardous substance releases to cause health or safety problems, or ecological, or environmental damage. It is the principal mechanism for placing a site of the National Priorities List (NPL), the list of priority releases for long-term remedial evaluation and response under the Federal Superfund Act. The HRS is calculated by utilizing known information to establish the level of threat presented in four potential pathways of human or environmental exposure: groundwater, surface water, air and soil exposure. Within each pathway of exposure, the HRS considers three categories of factors:

   (1)  Factors that indicate the presence or likelihood of a release to the environment

   (2)  Factors that indicate the nature and quantity of the substances presenting the potential threat

   (3)  Factors that indicate the human or environmental targets potentially at risk from the site.

   The resultant HRS score represents an estimate of the relative probability and magnitude of harm to human populations or sensitive environments from potential exposure to hazardous substances by the groundwater, surface water, soil exposure, or air pathways.

   2.  Summary and Purpose

   Placement of a site on the PAPL is used to identify sites which need further study and/or remedial response decisions to address threats to the public health, safety, or the environment. The Department will decide on a case-by-case basis whether to take enforcement or other actions under HSCA or other authorities, and/or to proceed directly with HSCA-funded remedial response actions and seek cost recovery after the cleanup.

   Remedial response actions will not necessarily be taken in the same order as a site's ranking on the PAPL. The investigation conducted to place a site on the PAPL may not be sufficient to determine either the extent of contamination or the appropriate response actions for a site. The Department may undertake further site investigation and/or an analysis of remedial alternatives to determine appropriate response actions. The length of time needed to complete these studies will vary due to the complexity of a site. Response action decisions and implementation will proceed on individual sites regardless of the progress at other sites. Given the limited resources available in the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Fund, the Department must carefully balance the relative needs for response at the sites it has studied. The Department may decide not to immediately proceed with a HSCA remedial action or that no remedial action is necessary.

   3.  Technical Evaluation Grants under Act 108

   Under section 510 of HSCA, the Department may make available a reasonable sum as a grant to the governing body of the host municipality of a site where the Department is considering a remedial response. The host municipality shall use this sum solely to conduct an independent technical evaluation of the proposed remedial response. The grant shall not exceed $50,000. Information and a technical evaluation grant package may be obtained from the Department of Environmental Protection regional office in which the site is located. Refer to the Additional Information section of this notice.

   A municipality will be sent grant information by the Department after a listing announcement has been published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The grant will be signed, however, the grant will not be effective until the proposed remedial response is available for public review. At that time, the municipality may proceed with the review of the Department's proposed remedial response.

   Pennsylvania Priority List of Hazardous Sites for Remedial Response

   A.  Effective Date

   The sites listed are being placed on the Pennsylvania Priority List of Hazardous Sites for Remedial Response (PAPL) effective upon publication of this Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   B.  Contact Persons

   Individual site information may be obtained by contacting the Department's regional office in which the site is located whose address can be found in the Additional Information section of this notice.

   C.  Statutory Authority

   The Pennsylvania Priority List of Hazardous Sites for Remedial Response is published under the authority of section 502(a) of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305). Under section 502(b) of HSCA, a decision to place a site on the list or to remove a site from the list is not a final action subject to review under 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704, or the Environmental Hearing Board Act, (35 P. S. § 7511 et seq.), nor shall it confer a right or duty upon the Department or any person.

   D.  Review and Public Comment

   F.  Site Listing Summary

   The Gettysburg Foundry Specialties Company (GFSC, to be listed by this notice as Gettysburg Foundry) is an inactive secondary aluminum foundry. The 49-acre site is located in a rural area of Cumberland Township, Adams County, four miles south of Gettysburg. From 1957 to 1997, the plant produced aluminum ingots from recycled aluminum. The aluminum dross fine waste produced during the process and the baghouse dust produced by the facility's air pollution control system were mixed and disposed in two unpermitted onsite pits. The first pit, used from 1968 until 1979, is about 1.75 acres in size with an average depth of 8 feet. The second pit, used from 1980 until 1988, is about 2 acres in size with an average depth of 17 feet. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on February 20, 1996 and ceased operations on March 13, 1997.

   The Department has completed an investigation of the hazardous substances and contaminants released at the site. The aluminum dross fine wastes are approximately 37% salt and contain aluminum, cadmium, chromium, and lead. It is reactive with water, generating ammonia gas and heat when wet. The baghouse dust is designated as a characteristically hazardous waste for cadmium and lead. Groundwater is in contact with the dross waste in the pits and is contaminated with aluminum, ammonia, chromium, chlorides, lead, and sodium. Surface water quality in the vicinity and downgradient of the Foundry property exceeds the Water Quality Criteria for metals. Metal concentrations in sediments exceed the National Sediment Contaminant Point Source Inventory PEL (Probable Effects Level) and ERM (Effects Range-Median) values in a number of locations. Contamination, primarily ammonia and salt, has migrated into a wetland and areas of this wetland are devoid of plant life.

   In 1997, the Department undertook a Prompt Interim Response to secure the site. The fence around the facility was repaired and piles of dross waste stored in the open were moved into a large room in the Foundry Building. In 1998, a second Prompt Interim Response was conducted to remove and dispose of the aboveground wastes at the site. This included drums of draw bench sludge and the piles of dross waste stored in the buildings.

   On March 21, 1997, the Department issued an Order to GFSC. Under this Order, GFSC was to cease any and all unpermitted storage and/or disposal of waste, use and maintain hazardous waste manifests, conduct hazardous waste determinations on all waste stored at the site, store all wastes in accordance with regulations, properly dispose of all waste, and submit a plan for approval to delineate the extent of contamination. Although the company removed some waste from the site, they did not fully comply with this Order. The Attorney General's Office filed charges against the previous owners and operators of GFSC for environmental crimes in June 1999 and they plead guilty in March 2000. On November 4, 1998, the Department signed a Consent Order and Agreement with C. M. Metals to resolve site cleanup and liability prior to their obtaining the GFSC property. In April 1999, C.M. Metals purchased the site, but has not complied with the CO.
