Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. Comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.

       The Department will also accept requests for a public hearing on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.

    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 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. 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:

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.

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

       Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate their interest to the Department regional office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a proposed plan approval or operating permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. 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.

       17-305-051: Parkwood Resources, Inc. (P. O. Box 552, Somerset, PA 15501) for construction of a bituminous coal stockpiling and truck loading operation at the Cherry Tree Mine in Burnside Township, Clearfield County.

       The coal stockpiling and truck loading operation will process up to 700,000 tons per year of coal from an underground mine. Air contaminant emission control will be provided by the inherent moisture content of the coal, the use of a water truck, the use of partial conveyor covers and a screen enclosure, the use of a stacking tube and the implementation of various work practices (truck tarping, vehicle speed limits, minimizing the front end loader bucket-to-truck bed freefall height, and the like).

       The Department's review of the information submitted by Parkwood Resources, Inc. indicates that the respective coal stockpiling and truck loading operation will comply with all applicable air quality requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the fugitive air contaminant emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.1 and 123.2, the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and the requirements of Subpart Y of the Federal Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources, 40 CFR 60.250--60.254.  Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue plan approval for the construction of the coal stockpiling and truck loading operation.

       The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:

       1.  The facility shall not process more than 700,000 tons of coal in any 12 consecutive month period.  

       2.  An operable water truck equipped with a pressurized spray bar and a pressurized spray nozzle or hose connection shall be kept onsite at all times and shall be used, as needed, for the control of fugitive dust emissions from plant roadways, stockpile areas, and the like.

       3.  The facility's screen shall be completely enclosed except for the coal entrance and exit points.

       4.  All aboveground conveyors shall be partially or fully enclosed.

       5.  All 0-inch to 2-inch coal from the screen shall be placed onto the 0-inch to 2-inch stockpile through a stacking tube.

       6.  All trucks entering or exiting the site through a public roadway shall have their truck beds completely tarped or otherwise covered unless empty.

       7.  The entrance road and internal plant roadways shall have posted speed limits of 10 miles per hour.

       8.  The facility's entrance roadway shall be paved.

       9.  Front end loader bucket-to-truck bed height shall be kept to a minimum during all truck loading.

       10.  This plan approval does not authorize the construction, installation or operation of any gasoline, natural gas, propane or diesel-fired stationary engines, generators or engine-generator sets.

       11.  Records shall be maintained of the number of tons of coal loaded out each month. Records shall be retained for at least 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.

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. 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. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should 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 of the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.

       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.

       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 should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984.

    HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP UNDER THE ACT OF
    OCTOBER 18, 1988

    Administrative Record Reopening

    Mangan Property HSCA Site, Moore Township, Northampton County

       The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) reopens the administrative record in the previously referenced matter on the date of publication of this notice, August 21, 2004, under section 506(h) of the HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.506(h)), to provide the public the opportunity to comment on the costs incurred in conducting a prompt interim response at the Mangan Property HSCA Site (Site). The original public comment period expired on March 14, 2000. The Department closed the administrative record on that date after filing the Statement of Decision and the Response to Public Comments under section 506(g) of the HSCA.

       The Department now reopens the administrative record under section 506(g)(3) and (h) of the HSCA to document the costs incurred during the prompt interim response.

       This cost information is available for public review and comment from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday at the Department's Northeast Regional Office, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711.

       The cost information will be available for public review and comment for 60 days from the date of receipt or publication of this notice. Persons may submit written comments regarding the cost information during the 60 day period by sending or delivering comments to Karen Unruh, Northeast Regional Office, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711.

       The Department may hold a public hearing if a written request is received within 30 days of receipt or publication of the notice. Should the Department decide to conduct a public hearing, persons may present oral comments regarding the cost information for inclusion in the administrative record. The request should be mailed or delivered to Karen Unruh, Northeast Regional Office, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711. A public hearing will not be held if the Department does not receive a written request within 30 days of publication of this notice.

       Once the 60-day public comment period ends and a public hearing is held, should one be requested and deemed necessary by the Department, the Department will respond to any comments received and close the administrative record.

    Prompt Interim Response

    Interlectric Mercury Site, Clarendon Borough, Warren County

       The Department, under the authority of the HSCA, has determined a response action is necessary for the Interlectric Mercury Site (Site), Clarendon Borough, Warren County at the former Interlectric Company manufacturing facility on the south side of U. S. Route 6. Specifically, the Site is a shed-like room on the northeastern side of the manufacturing facility where mercury-contaminated materials and soils were found, within and just outside of that room.

       For this prompt interim response, the Department considered two alternatives for the Site: (1) no action; and (2) excavation and removal of the mercury containing materials and adjacent mercury contaminated soils for off-Site recycling or disposal.

       Each alternative was evaluated with respect to four comparison criteria of: (1) the extent to which each alternative protects the public health and the environment; (2) the extent to which each alternative complies with or otherwise addresses Applicable or Relevant and Appropriate Requirements; (3) the extent to which each alternative is feasible, effective, implementable and permanent; and (4) the relative cost of each alternative.

       Furthermore, this comparative analysis evaluated the relative performance of each alternative in relation to each specific comparison criterion. The comparative analysis identified advantages and disadvantages of each alternative, so that tradeoffs between the alternatives could be determined.

       Based on the comparative analysis, the Department determined that Alternative 2 was the appropriate prompt interim response for the Site. This alternative was selected because it would, in the more cost-effective manner, protect the public and environmental receptors from direct contact with mercury contaminated materials and soils and eliminate the ongoing release and threat of release of mercury into the environment.

       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, is available for public review and comment Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Northwest Regional Office, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335. To make an appointment, call (814) 332-6648.

       The administrative record will be open for comment from August 21, 2004, until November 19, 2004. Persons may submit written comments into the record during this time only by sending or delivering them to James W. Weaver, Project Manager, Northwest Regional Office, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335.

       In addition, persons may present oral comments, for inclusion in the administrative record, at a public hearing. Persons wishing to present comments must register with James W. Weaver before September 21, 2004, by telephone or in writing. Persons interested in finding out if anyone has registered should contact James W. Weaver. If no one registers to present oral comments before September 21, 2004, the public meeting will not be held.

       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 James W. Weaver at (814) 332-6648 or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

    LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

    UNDER ACT 2, 1995

    PREAMBLE 2


    The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

       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.

       For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

       The Department has received the following plans and reports:

       Southeast Region: Environmental Cleanup Program Manager, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.

       Narberth Main Post Office, Narberth Borough, Montgomery County. Bruce R. Cushing, P. G., URS Corp., 1400 Union Meeting Rd., Suite 202, Blue Bell, PA 19422-1972 on behalf of USPS, Elizabeth Ann Carter, 22 W.

    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), require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of 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 act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of 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. 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. 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. 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 before which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

    BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY

    Approval of Request for Variance

       The Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (Bureau) has approved AMFIRE Mining Company's request for a variance from the requirements of section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act (act) at the Madison Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Allison Gaida, (724) 439-7469 or from the Bureau's website: www.dep. state.pa.us/dep/deputate/minres/dms/dms.htm.

       Summary of the Request: AMFIRE Mining Company, LLC requested a variance from section 242(c) of the act to allow for the common ventilation of belt conveyor entry with other entries at the Madison Mine. The proposal accords protections to persons and property substantially equal to or greater than the requirements set forth in the act.

       The basis for the Bureau's tentative approval is summarized as follows:

       1.  The Pyott-Boone 9500 CO Monitoring System will provide advance warning of a developing mine fire originating in the conveyor belt entry. When maintained and operating correctly, this system provides warnings much earlier than the point type heat sensors.

       2.  Common entries would permit the larger section mantrip and scoops access to belt entry for transportation of personnel and supplies.

       3.  The operator will maintain a separate isolated intake escapeway that is at a higher air pressure than the belt and common entries.

       4.  The plan provides for the common entries to serve as an alternate intake escapeway. There will be a total of three separate, isolated escape routes.

       This approval is limited to a variance from section 242(c) of the act requiring that the belt entry is isolated from other entries. All other terms and requirements of section 242(c) of the act shall remain in effect. Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in the plan and the following conditions:

       1.  All mine employees shall be task trained in the Pyott Boone Model 9500 CO monitoring system alert and alarm response procedures. These procedures shall also be included in the 8-hour annual retraining.

       2.  A test button shall be installed to allow a daily function check of the outside surface alarm system. A competent person shall make this daily function test and a record of this test shall be maintained on file at the mine.

       3.  As part of the requirements of section 228 of the act, all belt entries, common entries and unfenced roadways shall be preshifted in their entirety.

       4.  A preshift date board should be placed at each CO sensor location.

       5.  Designated areas shall be established at strategic locations along the belt entry and common entry to determine whether the air is traveling in the proper course and normal volume. This air reading shall be taken by a scientific means (anemometer, chemical smoke tube and velometer).
