HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988
Public Notice of Proposed Consent Order and Agreement
Bottle House Site
City of Allentown, Lehigh CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department) under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), notice is hereby provided that the Department has entered into de minimis settlements in the form of a Consent Order and Agreement (CO&A) with BYK-Chemie USA, Inc., n.k.a. BYK USA, Inc.; General Electric Company and it successors in interest, Sabic Innovative Plastics US, LLC and Momentive Performance Materials, Inc.; Hartz Mountain Corporation; Occidental Chemical Corporation; Pfizer, Inc.; Sartomer Company, Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its affilated entities Inc., without limitation, Union Carbide Corporation (Settlors). The CO&A's address the investigation and removal of hazardous substances that were left on the Bottle House Site (Site) by the Settlors. The Settlors will reimburse the Department their portion of the costs incurred to perform the site investigation/response activities at the Site.
The Site is located at 401--451 North Front Street, Allentown, Lehigh County and consists of a large three-story brick building that was the former bottling house for the Neuweiler Brewery. Brewery operations ceased at this site in the late 1960's. The Site then became an industrial property being utilized as a warehouse and manufacturing facility, which is surrounded on three sides by family residences and by a community recreational area on the fourth side. The operations resulted in large quantities of hazardous substances and or contaminants being stored in the building. The Department alleges that the Settlors sent nominal amounts of hazardous substances and/or contaminants to the Site. The Department initiated a prompt interim response action under the HSCA on September 27, 1999. The objective of this prompt interim response action was to eliminate the immediate threat to human health and safety and the environment posed by the hazardous substances and/or contaminants that were present on the site. The response was completed on April 28, 2000, at a cost of $1,563,183.46.
The settlements proposed in each of the CO&A's referenced previously would resolve certain potential claims of the Department solely against the Settlors, for future enforcement and reimbursement of response costs incurred by the Department in addressing the release or threat of release of hazardous substances at the Site. The claims originated under the authority of HSCA. The proposed settlements would require the Settlors to pay the Department the amounts listed for their portion of the response costs.
Settlor Amount BYK-Chemie USA, Inc. $ 19,810 General Electric Company $ 17,829 Hartz Mountain Corporation $ 5,943 Occidental Chemical Corporation $ 11,886 Pfizer, Inc. $ 13,867 Sartomer Company, Inc. $ 29,715 The Dow Chemical Company $ 25,753 The specific terms of the settlements are set forth in the CO&A's between the Department and the Settlors, which is available for public review and comment. The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the CO&A's for 60 days from the date of this Public Notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the CO&A's if the comments concerning the CO&A's disclose facts or considerations which indicate that the CO&A's are inappropriate, improper or not in the public interest. After the public comment period, the Department's settlement with the Settlors shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies the Settlors, in writing, that the CO&A's are final and effective in its present form and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the CO&A's, or that no such comments were received.
Copies of the CO&A's are available for inspection at the Department's Northeast Regional Office. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Karen Unruh, Department of Environmental Protection, Hazardous Sites Cleanup, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711. Further information may be obtained by contacting Karen Unruh, at (570) 826-2511. TDD users should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Services at (800) 645-5984.

Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports.

These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a Site-Specific Standard remediation. 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. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.

Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with the applicable provisions of sections 301--303, 306 and 307 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1311--1313, 1316 and 1317) and that the construction will not violate applicable Federal and State water quality standards.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Chesapeake Bay Point Source Nutrient Reduction Strategy In accordance with the 2000 Chesapeake Bay Agreement, the Commonwealth has agreed to develop a Tributary Strategy (strategy) to reduce total nitrogen and phosphorus to the Chesapeake Bay by about 40% from both point and nonpoint sources by 2010. This reduction is projected to improve the water quality in the Chesapeake Bay to allow it to be removed from the impaired waters list. The point source part of the strategy requires that the existing dischargers start to monitor for total nitrogen and phosphorus. The following dischargers start to monitor for total nitrogen and phosphorus. The following dischargers have been identified as possible significant contributors of nutrients. These dischargers are being notified by letter that their NPDES permits will be modified to include monitoring requirements for nutrients. The monitoring requirements for nutrients. The monitoring requirements concern Ammonia-N. Total Nitrogen (calculated as the sum of Kjeldhal-N and Nitrate) and Total Phosphorus.
