Final Technical Guidance: Substantive Revision

 DEP ID: 261-0300-101 Title: Land Recycling Program Technical Guidance Manual, Appendix II-A: The Use of Caps as Engineering Controls Description: A cap is a barrier over contaminated media that eliminates an exposure pathway or controls contaminant migration. Adding an appendix to the Land Recycling Program Technical Guidance Manual (TGM) for the use of caps as engineering controls is necessary because the Department currently does not provide any guidance on caps which are one of the more common engineering controls used by remediators at Act 2 sites. The guidance provided in this TGM will clarify the appropriate use of caps under the requirements of Act 2 and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 250 (relating to administration of Land Recycling Program) for remediators and regional office staff.

 Contact: Questions regarding this TGM appendix can be directed to Michael Maddigan at mmaddigan@pa.gov or (717) 772-3609

 Effective Date: March 27, 2021

PATRICK McDONNELL, 
Secretary
