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.

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.

Applicants must ensure that they are in compliance with 25 Pa. Code § 272.314(b)(2) relating to the submittal of the annual recycling report.
Eligible materials include post-consumer: clear glass, colored glass, aluminum cans, steel and bimetallic cans, high-grade office paper, newsprint, corrugated paper, other marketable grades of paper and plastics. Grants will be awarded only for properly documented, eligible materials that were actually marketed on or after January 1, 2004, to and including, December 31, 2004. Grant funds will not be awarded for residues, materials not listed as eligible including leaf and yard wastes or any materials which cannot be documented as being recycled into a new product or use. In particular, recovered glass that is being stockpiled or used as daily cover at a landfill will not be considered as recycled. Unless otherwise documented, the Department will deduct 15% from each application's documented tonnage to account for residue.
Documentation to support all claims that eligible recyclable materials were generated within the municipality and marketed must be made available for auditing by the Department, the Office of the Auditor General, the Office of the Treasurer or agents of those offices for 4 years. The Department will not require applicants to retain hauler customer lists; however, the lists may be required to be examined in the event of an audit. It will be the applicant's responsibility to arrange for hauler customer lists to be provided or for haulers to be present with their customer lists during a grant audit. Supporting documentation is not required to be submitted with the application.
Acceptable Supporting Documentation: Weight slips or receipts verifying that the materials were recycled or marketed are required as supporting documentation for the grant application. The documentation must include: 1) the date the materials were recycled/marketed; 2) the type of material recycled/marketed; 3) the name of the municipality where the material was generated; and 4) weight, stated in pounds or tons, of the material recycled/marketed. Documentation supporting materials source separated from municipal waste by commercial/institutional establishments and recycled/marketed must bear the name of the establishment and the municipality where the establishment is located.
Acceptable documentation must be provided in one of the following formats: 1) a dated weight/market receipt identifying the generator of the recyclable materials and the market; 2) a dated report submitted by the hauler or market on company letterhead clearly indicating the name of the company generating the recyclable materials; or 3) a dated report submitted by the generator which is signed by the hauler or market vendor that received the materials. Reports may be submitted on annual, monthly, weekly or other time period format. All information must be legible.
Estimates of weight will not be accepted except in cases when: 1) the material is packaged in uniform bales and the average weight of a bale can be demonstrated and supported by weight receipts, and a record of the number of bales was provided by the market vendors; or 2) multiple generators contribute to a known quantity of marketed material, and the hauler or market estimates the quantities attributable to any individual establishment or municipality and verifies the estimate with a signature.
Although the supporting documentation is not required to be submitted with the grant application, any documentation provided must conform to the previous requirements or the materials claimed will not be credited toward the grant award.
