   Plan Description:  On September 27, 2002, the Department approved a Plan Revision to Jefferson Township's Official Plan. The Plan Revision provides for collected wastewater from Jefferson Township to be treated at the Lackawanna River Basin Sewer Authority's Throop treatment plant, instead of at the Scranton Sewer Authority's treatment plant as called for in the Township's previous Sewage Plan, approved by the Department on July 3, 2000. The Plan Revision entails construction of a gravity sanitary sewer from a point on Marshwood Road to a connection with an existing sanitary sewer located at Mid-Valley Drive and East Lackawanna Avenue, in the Borough of Olyphant. The selected alternative is identified as Alternative 5 and the route of the proposed sewer is shown on Figure III-5 in the Plan Revision. The Department's review of the Plan Revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts associated with the changes to the Township's Official Plan. Any required WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality or authority as appropriate.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

UNDER ACT 2, 1995

PREAMBLE 3


The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8, Administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (Act) requires the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the remediation standards of the Act. Plans and reports required by provisions of the Act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. A cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.

   For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report 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.
