    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 after 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 (800) 654-5984.

    NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE PLAN APPROVALS AND OPERATING PERMITS

       The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.

       The Department has received applications and intends to issue plan approvals and/or operating permits to the following facilities.

       Copies of the applications, draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional offices identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.

       Interested persons may submit written comments, suggestions or objections concerning the proposed Title V permit to the regional office within 30 days of publication of this notice. Written comments submitted to the Department during the 30-day public comment period shall include the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, along with the reference number of the proposed permit. Comments should also include a concise statement of any objections to the permit issuance and the relevant facts upon which the objections are based.

       The Department reserves the right to hold a public hearing on the proposed action based upon the information received during the public comment period and will provide notice of any scheduled public hearing at least thirty days in advance of the hearing. If a hearing is scheduled, notice will be provided to each applicant, protestant, or other participants in writing or by publication in a newspaper or the Pennsylvania Bulletin, except where the Department determines that notification by telephone will be sufficient. Notice will also be provided to anyone who requests in writing to be notified concerning the scheduling of a hearing.

       Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121--143, the Federal Clean Air Act (act) and regulations adopted under the act.

Section VII contains notices for parties who have submitted NOIs for coverage under general NPDES permits.

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. The 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.

    PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY PERMITS

       The Department of Environmental Protection has taken the following actions on applications received under the Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.

       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 may 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 to the Board at (717) 787-3483.

       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.

    HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988

    Proposed Consent Decree for De Minimis Settlement

    Leighton Industries, Borough of Phoenixville, Chester County

       The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1001) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675), has entered into a Consent Decree for De Minimis Settlement with Alcoa, Inc. for reimbursement of certain response costs incurred to remediate hazardous substances disposed at the Leighton Industries Site (Site), 40 South Second Avenue, Borough of Phoenixville, Chester County.

       The Site was the former location of various manufacturing concerns, including Ten Pro, Inc., a manufacturer of aluminum baseball and softball bats, and Leighton Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of industrial boilers. During the period when hazardous substances were released on the Site, Alcoa, Inc. leased a room in the manufacturing building on the Site for storage of aluminum to be used for the manufacture of baseball and softball bats.

       In August 1995, the Department initiated a prompt interim response action at the Site to remediate hazardous substances released and threatened to be released at the Site. This response action included an investigation of drums of hazardous substances abandoned on the Site. In March 1996, the manufacturing building caught fire and drums and containers of hazardous substances presented an immediate threat to the public health, safety and the environment. After the fire, the Department removed the drums of hazardous and combustible materials from the Site, excavated and disposed of soil contaminated with hazardous substances. As a part of its response action, the Department also decontaminated buildings, aboveground storage tanks and transformers on the Site.

       The Department has determined that it is in the public interest to resolve its claim against Alcoa, Inc. Thus, Alcoa, Inc. shall reimburse the Department in the amount of $15,000 for response costs expended at the Site and shall receive contribution protection from claims based on its activities at the Site.

       This notice is provided under section 1113 of the HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113), which states ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Consent Decree, which contains the specific terms of the agreement, is available for public review and comment and can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office, Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428. To view the Consent Decree, contact Dustin Armstrong, (610) 832-6206, darmstrong@state.pa.us or Gina M. Thomas, (610) 832-6300, githomasstate.pa.us. A public comment period on the Consent Decree will extend for 60 days from June 21, 2003. Persons may submit written comments regarding the agreement within 60 days from June 21, 2003, by submitting them to Dustin Armstrong at the previous address.

    Proposed Consent Decree for De Minimis Settlement

    Leighton Industries, Borough of Phoenixville, Chester County

       The Department, under the HSCA and the CERCLA, has entered into a Consent Decree for De Minimis Settlement with the Phoenixville Area School District (School District) for reimbursement of certain response costs incurred to remediate hazardous substances disposed at the Leighton Industries Site (Site), 40 South Second Avenue, Borough of Phoenixville, Chester County.

       The Site was the former location of various manufacturing concerns, including Ten Pro, Inc., a manufacturer of aluminum baseball and softball bats, and Leighton Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of industrial boilers. During the period when hazardous substances were released on the Site, the School District owned a small tract of land within the Site area.

       In August 1995, the Department initiated a prompt interim response action at the Site to remediate hazardous substances released and threatened to be released at the Site. This response action included an investigation of drums of hazardous substances abandoned on the Site. In March 1996, the manufacturing building caught fire and drums and containers of hazardous substances presented an immediate threat to the public health, safety and the environment. After the fire, the Department removed the drums of hazardous and combustible materials from the Site, excavated and disposed of soil contaminated with hazardous substances. As a part of its response action, the Department also decontaminated buildings, aboveground storage tanks and transformers on the Site.

       The Department has determined that it is in the public interest to resolve its claim against the School District. Thus, the School District shall reimburse the Department in the amount of $1,000 for response costs expended at the Site and shall receive contribution protection from claims based on its activities at the Site.

       This notice is provided under section 1113 of the HSCA, which states ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Consent Decree, which contains the specific terms of the agreement, is available for public review and comment and can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office, Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428. To view the Consent Decree, contact Dustin Armstrong, (610) 832-6206, darmstrong@state.pa.us or Gina M. Thomas, (610) 832-6300, githomas@state.pa.us. A public comment period on the Consent Decree will extend for 60 days from June 21, 2003. Persons may submit written comments regarding the agreement within 60 days from June 21, 2003, by submitting them to Dustin Armstrong at the previous address.

       This Site was the former location of various manufacturing concerns, including Ten Pro, Inc., a manufacturer of aluminum baseball and softball bats, and Leighton Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of industrial boilers. As a partner in E & M Development, James Easton was an owner of the Site between 1985 and early 1989. E & M Development leased the Site to certain industrial manufacturing tenants.

       In August 1995, the Department initiated a prompt interim response action at the Site to remediate hazardous substances released and threatened to be released at the Site. This response action included an investigation of drums of hazardous substances abandoned on the Site. In March 1996, the manufacturing building caught fire and drums and containers of hazardous substances presented an immediate threat to the public health, safety and the environment. After the fire, the Department removed the drums of hazardous and combustible materials from the Site, excavated and disposed of soil contaminated with hazardous substances. As a part of its response action, the Department also decontaminated buildings, aboveground storage tanks and transformers on the Site.

       The Department has determined that it is in the public interest to resolve its claim against James Easton. Therefore, he shall reimburse the Department for certain response costs in the amount of $600,000 and shall receive contribution protection from claims based on his ownership of the Site.

       This notice is provided under section 1113 of the HSCA, which states ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Consent Decree, which contains the specific terms of the agreement, is available for public review and comment and can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office, Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428. To view the Consent Decree, contact Dustin Armstrong, (610) 832-6206, darmstrong@state.pa.us or Gina M. Thomas, (610) 832-6300, githomas@state.pa.us. A public comment period on the Consent Decree will extend for 60 days from June 21, 2003. Persons may submit written comments regarding the agreement within 60 days from June 21, 2003, by submitting them to Dustin Armstrong at the previous address.

After the fire, the Department removed the drums of hazardous and combustible materials from the Site, excavated and disposed of soil contaminated with hazardous substances. As a part of its response action, the Department also decontaminated buildings, aboveground storage tanks and transformers on the Site.

       The Department has determined that it is in the public interest to resolve its claim against John Magadini. The Department has investigated John Magadini's financial ability to pay his proportionate share of response costs and has determined that his only available assets consist of his Social Security benefits. Therefore, he shall reimburse the Department for certain response costs in the amount of $2,500 and shall receive contribution protection from claims based on his ownership of the Site.

       This notice is provided under section 1113 of the HSCA, which states ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Consent Decree, which contains the specific terms of the agreement, is available for public review and comment and can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office, Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428.
