Notice of Settlements Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act
UGI Columbia Gas Site
Borough of Columbia, Lancaster CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department) under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304) has entered into a consent order and agreement withPennsylvania Power & Light Company (PP&L) regarding the UGI Columbia Gas site in the Borough of Columbia, Lancaster County. The site housed a former gas manufacturing facility that operated from approximately 1853 to 1948. The site is not owned by PP&L, but has been owned by a number of entities during the plant's operation and the years subsequent to its closing.
Operations of the manufactured gas facility resulted in contamination of the site, particularly in the areas of the relief holder and gas holders. The gas holder was located near the center of the property and consisted of a 40-foot diameter structure that was a brick-lined cylindrical pit with a concrete base. Site characterization revealed that the pit contains tar coated material to a depth of approximately 17 feet and that the concrete base is fractured.
The relief holder was constructed of riveted steel plates and was contained within a pit that was approximately 26 feet deep. Tars were stored inside during the plant's operation. Once the plant operations ceased, the pit was filled with refuse, construction debris, and fill. Assessment activities at the site indicated that approximately 800 cubic yards of Susquehanna River sediment southwest of the site were also contaminated with coal tar.
On May 31, 1994, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601 et seq., and the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan, 40 C.F.R. Part 300, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) placed the site on the National Priority List. EPA also authorized the Department to address the gas and relief holders and to further assess the site and the contaminated river sediments. On July 17, 1995, the Department issued, pursuant to HSCA, a Statement of Decision (SOD) for the site, In its SOD, the Department determined there was a need to conduct interim actions to address the risks posed by the gas and relief holders. In order to address these risks, the Department determined there was a need to remove contaminated material from the gas and relief holders and selected the processes to accomplish this goal.
On April 4, 1996, the Department and PP&L entered into a consent order and agreement whereby PP&L agreed to implement the interim actions, as selected by the Department in its SOD, to conduct a remedial investigation and feasibility study of the site, and to assess further the river sediment contamination and means for addressing it. PP&L also agreed to reimburse the Department $22,980.80 for the past costs expended by the Department at the site and to reimburse the Department for its future costs to implement the consent order and agreement.
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113). The Department will respond to any significant written comments before the consent order and agreement becomes final. The consent order and agreement that contains the specific terms of the settlement is available for public review and comment. The consent order and agreement can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's office at One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Barbara Faletti at (717) 657-4592. A public comment period on the proposed consent decree will extend for 60 days from today's date. Persons may submit written comments regarding the proposed consent decree to the Department by June 19, 1996, by submitting them to Barbara Faletti at the above address.
Final Submission Date for Municipal Recycling Program Peformance Grant Applications under the Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act
The Department of Environmental Protection hereby announces a request for applications from municipalities for grant assistance for recycling programs under the Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act (35 P. S. §§ 4000.101--4000.1904). Municipalities include counties, cities, boroughs, incorporated towns, townships and home rule municipalities.
Recycling Performance Grant funds will be awarded to municipalities based upon the weight of source separated recyclable materials identified in section 1501 of act 101 recovered by municipal recycling programs, and the population of the municipality. For this application period, municipalities awarded grants will receive a base award of $5 for each ton of eligible recyclable materials marketed, and $1 per ton for each percentage of waste diverted from disposal. The weight of eligible materials allowable from non-residential (commercial and institutional) sources will be limited to no more than the weight of eligible materials from residential sources. The Department will not award grants calculated to be less than $10.
Eligible materials include: clear glass, colored glass, aluminum, steel and bimetallic cans, high-grade office paper, newsprint, corrugated paper, other marketable grades of paper, and plastics. Grants will be awarded only for properly documented, eligible materials that were actually marketed on or after January 1, 1995, to and including December 31, 1995. Grant funds will not be awarded for residues, materials not listed as eligible, or any materials which cannot be documented as being recycled into a new product or use.
Documentation to support all claims that eligible recyclable materials were generated within the municipality and marketed must be retained at the offices of the municipal applicant for 4 years from the end date of the year the application covers. The supporting documentation is not required to be submitted with the application.
Acceptable Supporting Documentation. Weight slips or receipts verifying that the materials were marketed are required as supporting documentation for the grant application. The documentation must be on the letterhead of the market or on forms provided by the market, must bear a signature of an authorized representative verifying that the materials were received, and must identify the type and weight of the materials received. Estimates of weight will not be accepted except in cases where: 1) the material is packaged in uniform bales and the average weight of a bale can be demonstrated, or, 2) when multiple generators contribute to a known quantity of marketed material and the hauler or market estimates the quantities allocatable to any individual establishment, or lists each establishment, and verifies the estimate with his/her signature.
Supporting documentation must be available for review by representatives of the Department of Environmental Protection, the Office of the Attorney General and the Office of the Treasurer. Although the supporting documentation is not required to be submitted with the grant application, any documentation provided must conform to the above requirements or the materials claimed will not be credited toward the grant.
The deadline for submission of applications is 3 p.m., October 4, 1996. Applications must be on the revised forms provided by the Department. Applications received by the Department after that date will not be considered. All grant awards are predicated on the receipt of recycling fees required by sections 701 and 702 of Act 101, and the availability of monies in the Recycling Fund.
Municipalities wishing to file an application should contact their County Recycling Coordinator or the Department at the address which follows. Inquiries concerning this notice should be directed to Carl Hursh, Chief, Recycling and Markets, Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Land Recycling and Waste Management, Rachel Carson State Office Building, P.
