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 (800) 654-5984.
The Department has received the following Notices of Intent to Remediate:

The Department intends to place conditions in the plan approval to be issued pertaining to the operation and monitoring of the pneumatic conveying system. These conditions are intended to assure proper operation of the pneumatic conveying system as well as maintenance of compliance with all applicable air quality regulatory requirements. The following is a summary of these conditions:
1. The pneumatic conveying system shall not operate without the simultaneous operation of the Turbo-Sonic Mister on the exhaust of the cyclone collector.
2. The pneumatic conveying system shall not cause particulate matter to be emitted at a rate of more than 0.04 grains per dry standard cubic foot and 1.6 tons per year.
3. The opacity of the exhaust of the pneumatic conveying system shall not exceed 0% (excluding water vapor).
4. The company shall perform weekly maintenance checks on the cyclone collector and Turbo-Sonic Mister to assure proper operation.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988 Public Notice of Proposed Consent Order and Agreement AVTEX Mercury Release Sites Crawford County, PA Under section 1113 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) (HSCA), notice is hereby provided that the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has entered into a Consent Order and Agreement (CO&A) with Crawford County Properties, Inc. (CCPI) concerning the cleanup of the Avtex Mercury Release Sites (sites). The sites include both the initial release location at the former Avtex Fibers, Inc. manufacturing facility (Facility) and the individual locations described as the Adjunct Mercury Release Sites. The Facility is located on a 170-acre property adjacent to Dunham Road in Vernon Township, Crawford County, PA. The Adjunct Mercury Release Sites are 33 distinct sites, located in Hayfield, Richmond, Spring, Union, Venango, Vernon, Woodcock Townships, Crawford County, PA.
In the past, hazardous substances were released at the sites and these substances contaminated the environment at the sites. The Facility was owned and operated by various entities from 1929 to 1986 to manufacture synthetic fibers. During all or part of that period of operation, a wastewater treatment plant was used by the entities operating the Facility at the site to treat wastewaters. During the years of operation, mercury came to be located in the trickling filter tanks at the wastewater treatment plant. In 1986, CCPI purchased the property that included the Facility. Between 1995 and 1997, mercury-containing wastes (wastes) were released into the soils adjacent to the trickling filter tanks at the Facility during dismantling operations. Later, filter media from those tanks was transported for use as fill material to the sites, including elsewhere on the Facility. These wastes contaminated the environment at the sites. Mercury is defined in section 103 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.103) as a ''hazardous substance.'' The Department and CCPI removed the wastes from the Adjunct Mercury Release Sites for proper off-site disposal, at a cost of approximately 1 million dollars. That response mitigated the threat to human health and the environment posed by the wastes. As an owner of the facility and a generator during the time of the release and threatened release of hazardous substances at the sites, CCPI is a ''responsible person'' as defined in section 103 of HSCA. Under the terms of the Agreement, CCPI shall, among other things, pay the Department $5,000 to resolve its liability at the sites. In addition, CCPI has remediated one of the sites (the Wetzel Site) and will also implement an approved supplemental work plan for specific tasks and long-term operation and maintenance activities at the Facility.
The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the CO&A between the Department and CCPI. 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 CCPI shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies CCPI, in writing, that this Consent Order and Agreement 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 comments were received.
Copies of the CO&A are available for inspection at the Department's Northwest Regional Office. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Mark Gorman, Program Manager, Department of Environmental Protection, Hazardous Sites Cleanup, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335. Further information may be obtained by contacting Mark Gorman, at (814) 332-6648. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Services at (800) 645-5984.

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) requires the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its 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 Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act. 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.
