HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP ACT UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988

NOTICE OF PROMPT INTERIM RESPONSE

Yorktowne Special Products, Red Lion Borough, York County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), has initiated a prompt interim response at the Yorktowne Special Products site (Yorktowne) at 101 Cherry Street, Red Lion, PA. This response has been undertaken under sections 501(a) and 505(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.501 (a) and 6020.505(b)). The site is located at Red Lion Borough, York County, PA.

   Yorktowne was a small metal plating business operated on a 0.5 acre property with two buildings. One building contains the plating tanks, rinse baths and drums containing various solutions used in nickel, tin and zinc plating. There are approximately 40 drums inside this building with labels designating the contents as nickel, zinc, acids and/or other electroplating wastes. There are also about 15 vats that were utilized for electroplating. Many of these vats have sludge on the bottom. The second building is used as a storage and treatment facility. There are four cement in-ground settling tanks used for the treatment of wastewater generated from the plating operation. There are approximately 15 drums in the second building containing various wastes including brass activators and caustic materials. There are eight 25-gallon drums labeled muriatic acid between the buildings onsite. The land adjacent to the buildings has large areas that are devoid of plant life.

   The Department's Waste Management Program issued an Administrative Order on January 2, 1997. The order required that Yorktowne cease dumping or permitting the dumping of solid waste onto the surface of the ground; conduct hazardous waste determinations on accumulated sludge; if the hazardous waste determination indicate that the sludge is hazardous, apply for a hazardous waste generator identification number; and remove and dispose of all solid waste. Yorktowne has not complied with this order. During a recent inspection of the facility Department personnel collected samples from two of the settling tanks and from two open drums. Results from these samples indicate that the sludge and drums contain elevated levels of cyanide, cadmium, chromium, lead, nickel and zinc.

   The Department has considered two alternatives for the remediation of the site. The following are brief descriptions of these alternatives.

   1.  Institutional Controls--This alternative involves placing controls on the facility to limit the direct contact with the waste there. These controls would include repairing the broken-out windows, repairing the fence around the site and alerting the borough police and requesting additional patrols around the facility. All wastes would remain at the site.

   2.  Waste Removal--This alternative involves the removal and disposal of the wastes at the site. Under this alternative, waste currently stored at the site would be characterized and sent offsite for proper disposal. This would include the waste in the drums, in the plating and rinse baths and in the cement settling tanks. Further investigation of site soils will be conducted to determine if there has been any soil contamination. Any soils containing site related contaminants in excess of Nonresidential Statewide Health Standards would be removed and disposed.

   The Department has implemented Alternative 2. This alternative complies with applicable, relevant and appropriate requirements and will eliminate the threat of potential exposure to the wastes. This alternative is protective of human health and the environment by eliminating the risk from further release of hazardous substances at the site.

   This notice is provided under section 506(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.506(b)) and publication of this notice starts the administrative record period under HSCA. The administrative record which contains information about this site and which supports the Department's decision to perform this action is available for public review and comment at the Department's Southcentral Regional Office at 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Ruth Bishop at (717) 705-4833. A copy of the administrative record is also available at the Red Lion Borough Office at Center Square, Red Lion, PA.

   The administrative record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and will remain open for 90 days. Persons wishing to submit written comments regarding this action may do so by sending them to Ruth Bishop at the previous address. The public will have an opportunity to present oral comments regarding the action at the public hearing. The hearing has been scheduled for January 24, 2002, at 7 p.m. at the Red Lion Borough Office. Persons wishing to present formal oral comments at that hearing should register by 4 p.m. on January 18, 2002, by calling Charlotte Bonafair at (717) 705-4703.
