HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP
UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988
High Quality Polishing and Plating Site
Upper Milford Township, Lehigh County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. § 6020.102--6020.1303), has initiated a prompt interim response at the High Quality Polishing and Plating Site (Site). This response has been undertaken under Section 505(b) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.505(b). The Site is located along Routes 100/29 in the village of Zionsville, Upper Milford Township, Lehigh County, PA.
The Site was used as metal polishing and plating facility from 1960 until 1983. The Department is currently conducting an Environmental Site Characterization at the Site. Trichloroethylene (TCE) has been detected in on- and off-site monitoring wells and in two residential wells at concentrations above the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL).
On April 23, 2001 the Department installed carbon filter systems on two private water supplies located near the Site and which serve a total of 4 households. The objective of the prompt interim response is to prevent exposure to TCE through ingestion and inhalation.
Given the specific circumstances at the Site, the Department determined that the installation of carbon filter systems was the only viable alternative to implement at this Site to address the contamination in the residential wells. This response action was needed in a prompt manner to protect public health and safety. The Department is conducting additional investigation of the groundwater, including sampling of Site monitoring wells and nearby residential wells.
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 the response action, is available for public review and comment. The administrative record is located at the Upper Milford Township Building, Lehigh County and is available for review Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The administrative record will be open for comment from May 19, 2001 to August 17, 2001. Persons may submit written comments into the record during this time only, by sending them to Ronald Schock, Project Officer, at the Department's Bethlehem District Office at 4530 Bath Pike, Bethlehem, PA 18017, or by delivering them to that office in person.
In addition, persons may present oral comments, for inclusion in the administrative record, at a public hearing. The Department has scheduled the hearing for June 20, 2001, at 7:30 p.m. at the Upper Milford Township Building. The testimony at the public hearing will be limited to the prompt interim response action which involved the installation of carbon treatment systems to address the TCE-contaminated residential wells. The Department is continuing the investigation of the Site and anticipates additional response action at the Site to address the on-Site contaminated building and environmental media. A public hearing will be held at a later date to address those future response actions. Persons wishing to present testimony at the June 20, 2001 hearing regarding the carbon treatment systems should register with Ron Schock before June 15, 2001, by telephone at (610) 861-2070 or in writing to Ronald Schock at the Department's Bethlehem District Office.
If no person registers to present oral comments by June 15, 2001, the hearing will not be held. Persons interested in finding out if anyone has registered, or if the hearing will be held, should contact Ronald Schock.
Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceedings, should contact Ronald Schock or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted Under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
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 of Environmental Protection Regional Office under which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate Regional Office listed. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.
