HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP

Under the Act of October 18, 1988

Notice of Prompt Interim Response Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act

Mangan Property Site

Moore Township, Northampton County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304) (HSCA), has initiated a prompt interim response at the Mangan Property Site (Site). This response has been taken under section 505(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.505(b)). The Mangan Property Site is located off East Beersville Road in Moore Township, Northampton County, PA.

   The Mangan Property Site consists of a storage shed attached to a barn where hazardous substances including pesticides and herbicides were stored. The structure, approximately 10 feet by 15 feet in size, contains residue from the storage of these materials and the wood flooring and side walls are contaminated. The Site also consists of two parcels of property off East Beersville Road where hazardous substances that were stored in the structure attached to the barn were dumped onto the ground. The Department has identified the following hazardous substances at the Site: fonofos (dyfonate), hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane) and toxaphene. These chemical compounds are insecticides and are toxic. The Department is currently analyzing samples to further identify and quantify the hazardous substances present at the Site.

   The objective of the prompt interim response is to remove the hazardous substances from the Site and to safely dispose of them at off-site facilities that have regulatory approvals for the treatment and disposal.

   Given the specific circumstances at the Site, the Department determined that excavation of the hazardous substances and contaminated soils and off-site removal is the only viable alternative to implement at this Site. In addition, after inspection of the storage shed attached to the barn and receipt of analytical results of material collected from the floor indicating relatively high concentration of fonofos and toxaphene, the Department has decided to remove and dispose of the contaminated residue, wood and contaminated soils associated with this structure. This response action is needed in a prompt manner to protect human health and the environment.

   On September 3, 1998, the Department mobilized to the Mangan Property to conduct a prompt interim response. The Department issued an Administrative Order under HSCA for access and right of entry for the Site. Concurrently with this action, the Department conducted a search, under a search warrant, at the Site. During September 3 and September 4, 1998, the Department and its contractor identified the areas on the two parcels where hazardous substances had been dumped, collected samples for analysis and excavated and removed from the Site the wastes and contaminated soils. The Department removed for proper disposal five rolloff containers of contaminated materials and one 55 gallon drum containing smaller containers of chemicals.

   The Department is currently receiving and evaluating analyses of soil samples to determine whether the soils excavations were sufficient to ensure safety to human health and the environment.

   On September 22, 1998, the Department met with its contractor to plan the removal and safe disposal of the materials contaminated with hazardous substances in and below the storage shed attached to the barn. This work will begin promptly and may be initiated prior to publication of this notice.

   This notice is being provided under sections 505(b) and 506(b) of HSCA. The administrative record which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this response action is available for public review and comment. The administrative record is located at the DEP Bethlehem District Office at 4530 Bath Pike (Route 512) in Hanover Township, Northampton County and is available for review Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

AIR QUALITY

Plan Approval and Operating Permit Applications

Nonmajor Sources and Modifications

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. 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. Although the sources covered by these applications may be located at a major facility, the sources being installed or modified do not trigger major new source review or prevention of significant deterioration requirements.

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

   Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed plan approval and/or operating permits must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with the Department's 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 to the date of the hearing.

   Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121--143, the Federal Clean Air Act and regulations adopted under the act.

SPECIAL NOTICES

Certified Emission Reduction Credits in Pennsylvania's ERC Registry

   Emission reduction credits (ERCs) are surplus, permanent, quantified and Federally enforceable emission reductions used to offset emission increases of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the following criteria pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), lead (Pb), oxides of sulfur (SOx), particulate matter (PM), PM-10 and PM-10 precursors.

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) maintains an ERC registry in accordance with the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 127.209. This computerized ERC registry system provides for the tracking of the creation, transfer and use of ERCs. Prior to registration of the credits, ERC Registry applications are reviewed and approved by the Department to confirm that the ERCs meet the requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206--127.208. Registration of the credits in the ERC registry system constitutes certification that the ERCs satisfy applicable requirements and that the credits are available for use. The following registered, and certified ERCs in the ERC Registry are currently available for use as follows:

   (1)  To satisfy new source review (NSR) emission offset ratio requirements;

   (2)  To ''net-out'' of NSR at ERC-generating facilities;

   (3)  To sell or trade the ERCs for use as emission offsets at new or modified facilities.

   The certified ERCs shown as follows, expressed in tons per year (tpy), satisfy the applicable ERC requirements contained in 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206--127.208. ERCs created from the curtailment or shutdown of a source or facility expire for use as offsets 10 years after the emission reduction occurs. ERCs generated by the overcontrol of emissions by an existing facility do not expire for use as offsets. However, credits in the registry which are not used in a plan approval will be discounted if new air quality requirements are adopted by the Department or United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

   For additional information concerning this listing of certified ERCs, contact Virendra Trivedi, Bureau of Air Quality, Division of Permits, Department of Environmental Protection, 12th Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, P. O. Box 8468, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8468, (717) 787-4325.
