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 Regional Office under which the notice appears.

The respective plant is a minor facility. The plant incorporates various pieces of crushing, screening and conveying equipment. Particulate matter emissions from the plant are minimal due to the inherent moisture in the material being processed and the application of water during processing.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has determined that the sand and gravel processing plant has been constructed, and is operating in accordance with all conditions of Plan Approval 49-310-007 as well as in compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12. The Department consequently intends to issue an operating permit for the operation of the respective sand and gravel processing plant.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the operating permit to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements:
1. The permittee shall have onsite an operable water truck equipped with a pressurized spray bar to be used, as needed, for the prevention and control of fugitive air contaminant emissions from roadways, stockpiles, etc.
2. At least the first 250 feet of the main plant entrance/exit road shall be paved.
3. No stationary fossil fuel fired engines or generators shall be operated on site.
4. If it is ever determined that the air contaminant emissions from any piece of sand and gravel processing equipment incorporated in the plant are in excess of any applicable air contaminant emission limit, the permittee shall install water spray dust suppression nozzles and/or take such other control measures as are necessary to reduce the air contaminant emissions to within the applicable limits.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988 Prospective Purchaser Agreement Settlement under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation And Liability Act and the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675) among other statutes, has entered into a Prospective Purchaser Agreement with Equity Brokerage, Inc. (EBI) related to the East Tenth Street HSCA Site in Marcus Hook, Delaware County, PA.
Under the terms of the Prospective Purchaser Agreement, EBI will make a contribution towards the Department's response costs at the Site and agrees not to exacerbate any existing contamination attributable to the East Tenth Street Site in exchange for a covenant not to sue and contribution protection from the Department.
Copies of the full Prospective Purchaser Agreement are maintained in the Department's Southeast Regional Office, Lee Park, Suite 6010, 555 North Lane, Conshohocken, PA 19428, and may be viewed or obtained by contacting April Flipse at (610) 843-5937 or William Blasberg at (610) 832-6000 during normal business hours. A 60-day period of public comment will follow the date of publication of this Notice, and the Department has reserved the right to withdraw from the Prospective Purchaser Agreement in the event that comments submitted during the comment period disclose facts or considerations which indicate, in the Department's discretion, that the Prospective Purchaser Agreement is inappropriate or not in the public interest. Interested parties may submit comments in writing to April Flipse at the Department's Southeast Regional Office.
Notice of Prompt Interim Response Mount Union Creosote Site
Mount Union Borough
Huntingdon County, PennsylvaniaThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) has initiated a prompt interim response at Mount Union Creosote Site. This response has been initiated under sections 501(a) and 505(b) of the HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.501(a) and 6020.505(b)). The site is located at Mount Union Borough, Huntingdon County, PA.
The Mount Union Creosote Site (Site) is located in the northeastern section of Mount Union Borough, Huntingdon County. The area of concern is 15.5 acres previously occupied by a creosote treatment plant and its associated features. Former creosote treatment, storage and disposal activities have resulted in the release of hazardous substances. The athletic fields of the Mount Union Area High School are located in the area previously occupied by the south end of the former creosote plant operations and are believed to have been constructed over the area used for drying creosote impregnated railroad ties.
The Department conducted an investigation during July 1999 to assess the impact of former creosote activities on surface soils (less than 2 feet below the ground surface), the bedrock aquifer, and to determine groundwater flow paths and impacts to surface waters and sediments of the Juniata River.
The collection and analysis of surface soil samples throughout the Site indicate a sporadic occurrence of creosote-impacted soils. The chemicals of concern (COCs) are creosote related organic contaminants present above regulatory site-specific standards. The Site COCs are benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, and benzo(b)fluoran- thene. Analysis of site monitoring wells shows the presence of soil COCs in the shallow groundwater.
To assess the site-specific potential impact of the COCs in the surface soil on the groundwater, a fate and transport analysis of potential leaching was performed and site-specific concentrations were calculated. The calculations indicate that existing groundwater contaminant levels are not currently impacting the Juniata River and will not impact river sediment and surface water in the future.
The Department proposes a prompt interim response at this Site to protect public health and safety or the environment. This determination is based on the potential and actual human exposure to hazardous substances in the shallow soil via inhalation, ingestion and dermal contact.
The Department considered three alternatives: 1. No action, which allows the continued exposure to COCs in the shallow soil. 2. Limited action, which includes implementation of a deed restriction to prevent future intrusive activities at the Site, and prohibit future use of groundwater at the Site. 3. Excavation and disposal of contaminated surface soil, and continued groundwater monitoring.
The Department has chosen to implement specific elements of Alternative 2 and implement Alternative 3. Both comply with applicable, relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs), will reduce hazardous constituent concentrations below regulatory standards, remove direct contact threats, and are cost effective. These alternatives are protective of human health, safety, welfare and the environment by eliminating the risk from further release of hazardous substances at the Site.
The Department is providing this notice under sections 505(b) and 506(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.505(b) and 6020.506(b)), and the publication of this notice starts the administrative record period under HSCA. The Administrative Record which contains information about this site and which supports the Department's decision to perform this action at the site is available for public review and comment. The Administrative Record can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southcentral Regional Office located at 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Crystal Snook at (717) 705-6645. The Administrative Record can also be reviewed at the Mount Union Public Library, Mount Union, PA.
The Administrative record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and will remain open for 90 days. Persons may submit written comments regarding this action to the Department before November 29, 2002, by mailing them to Crystal Snook at Department of Environmental Protection, South Central Region, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-8200.
The public will have an opportunity to present oral comments regarding the proposed action at a public hearing. The hearing has been scheduled for October 1, 2002, at 7 p.m. at the Mount Union High School Auditorium located at 706 North Shaver Street, Mount Union, PA. Persons wishing to present formal oral comment at the hearing should register before 4 p.m., September 26, 2002, by calling Sandra Roderick at (717) 705-4931.
If no person registers to present oral comments by September 26, 2002, the hearing will not be held but will be replaced with an informational meeting.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection
Public Meeting/Public Hearing Cancellation
Dougherty and Lehman NPDES-CAFO Permit Applications
Limestone Township, Lycoming CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is cancelling, until further notice, the public meeting/public hearing, originally scheduled for September 5, 2002, at the Jersey Shore Area High School auditorium. The original purpose of the hearing was to discuss two separate National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation (CAFO) General Permit applications for facilities proposed in Limestone Township, Lycoming County. The two applicants are: (1) Charles L. and Michelle L. Dougherty: and (2) Michael V. and Dorothea A. Lehman. The meeting/hearing has been cancelled because the Department has determined that it will be necessary for the applicants to submit Individual NPDES application packages, rather than Notices of Intent to be covered under the General NPDES permit. It will also be required that Water Quality Management permit applications be submitted for the proposed manure storage facilities. A meeting/hearing may be re-scheduled, after the Department receives the new application packages. Notice of any rescheduled meeting/hearing will be announced in this Pennsylvania Bulletin.
