HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP Under the Act of October 18, 1988 Notice of Settlement Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304) (HSCA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C.A. § 9601 et seq. (CERCLA), has entered into a settlement with 701 West Associates, LLC (701 West), for reimbursement of certain response costs incurred to remediate hazardous substances stored and disposed of at the North Penn 6 Superfund Site (site), a 150 acre site in Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA. This site was listed on the National Priority List and consists of a plume of groundwater contamination which has impacted wells of the North Penn Water Authority.
Remediation of the site is being conducted based on three operable units. Operable Unit 1 is related to the remediation of contaminated soil from certain properties within the site area. On September 29, 1995, the EPA issued a ROD for this phase of the cleanup. Operable Unit 2 is related to an additional soil investigation and remediation funded by certain potentially responsible parties. Operable Unit 3 is related to remediation of groundwater at the site. This phase of the remediation will be completed by EPA. Under HSCA and CERCLA, both the Department and the EPA have expended response costs to abate the release and threatened release of hazardous substances at the site. To date, the Department has expended $86,401.22 in response costs under its State Superfund contract with the EPA.
701 West desires to purchase the Easton Labs facility, a 3.7 acre parcel (Property) located within the site area and intends to lease the Property to industrial concerns. 701 West wishes to resolve its potential liability for response costs expended by the Department to remediate the site and has executed a Prospective Purchaser's Agreement/Consent Order and Agreement with the Department, the terms of which include 701 West's payment of $3,000 to reimburse the Department for certain past response costs expended at the site.
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113) which provides that ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Prospective Purchaser Agreement/Consent Order and Agreement, which contains the specific terms of the settlement is available for public review and comment. This agreement 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, by contacting either Matthew Miller, (610) 832-6192 or Gina M. Thomas, (610) 832-6300. Matthew Miller and Gina Thomas may also be contacted electronically at miller.matthew@dep.state.pa.us and thomas.gina@dep.state.pa.us, respectively. A public comment period on the Consent Order and Agreement will extend for 60 days from today's date. Persons may submit written comments regarding the agreement within 60 days from today's date, by submitting them to Matthew Miller at the previous address.
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 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)(l)(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 as 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's 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.

AIR QUALITY PLAN APPROVALS/OPERATING PERMITS Notice of Plan Approval and Operating Permit Applications Nonmajor Sources and Modifications 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 for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities. Although the sources covered by these applications may be located at a major facility, the sources being installed or modified do not trigger major new source review or prevention of significant deterioration requirements.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared 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.
Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed plan approval and/or operating permits must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with the Department Regional Offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts which serve as the basis for the objections. If the Department schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the 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 and regulations adopted under the act.
OPERATING PERMITS
Notice of Intent to Issue Title V Operating Permits
Under 25 Pa. Code § 127.521, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue a Title V Operating Permit to the following facilities.

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) and Chapter 250 Administration of Land Recycling Program.
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8 Administration of Land Recycling Program 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 (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 or reuse of the property, and in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis.

A cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears.
