SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT

PLAN APPROVAL

   The Department of Environmental Protection has taken actions on municipal requests for Act 537 Plan Approval.

   Any person aggrieved by this 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 may contact the Board through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Environmental Hearing Board within 30 days of receipt of written notice of this action unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audio tape from the Secretary to 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 decisional law.


Actions under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20).

   Southeast Regional Office:  Sewage Planning Specialist Supervisor, Lee Park, Suite 6010, 555 North Lane, Conshohocken, PA 19428.

   The Plan Approval is granted for a revision to the Official Sewage Facilities Plan of Marple Township, Morton Borough, Nether Providence Township, Prospect Park Borough, Ridley Park Borough, Ridley Township, Rutledge Borough, Springfield Township and Swarthmore Borough, Delaware County to provide for the diversion of existing sewage flows currently treated at the City of Philadelphia Southwest Wastewater Treatment Facility to the DELCORA Western Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (WRWWTF). This will be accomplished by upgrade, expansion and modification to the Central Delaware County Sewer Authority Service Area Pump Station to 12 mgd average annual and 40 mgd peak instantaneous and construction of a new force main to connect to the existing Chester Force Main at Concord Avenue. The diverted flows will be managed so as to not cause an exceedance of the permitted capacity at the WRWWTF nor exceed maximum daily flow of 12 million gallons. The balance of the sewage flow above 12 million gallons will continue to be pumped to the City of Philadelphia Southwest Wastewater Treatment Facility. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this approval. A Water Quality Part II permit is required for the facility.

Preamble 3


The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediations Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908) and Chapter 250 Administration of Land Recycling Program.

   Provisions of 25 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 Remediations 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 of reuse 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. 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, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department of Environmental Protection Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears.
