LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
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. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for 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 analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. 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.
For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.
The Department has received the following plans and reports:
Notice of Settlement under HSCA and CERCLA The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA), (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund) (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675), has entered into a De Minimis Settlement Agreement (DSA) with Richard and Susan Dole Armstrong (Armstrongs) relating to the William Dick Lagoons Superfund Site in West Caln Township.
The William Dick Lagoons Site is a National Priority List Site under CERCLA of approximately 4.5 acres located along Telegraph and North Sandy Hill Roads in West Caln Township, PA. The Site makes up a small portion of a 170 acre tract of property (Property) which is being sold by the Armstrongs to West Caln Township for permanent preservation as open space in Chester County.
The Site consists of significant soils and groundwater contamination associated with former hazardous waste disposal operations in lagoons located on the Site. The USEPA, in conjunction with the Department, has implemented several remedial response actions at the Site, including the installation of a public water supply system to affected residences and various soil and groundwater treatment remedies.
The Armstrongs inherited the Property from William Dick, a/k/a Wassal Dick in or around 1983. The Armstrongs have asserted, and the Department has no information to indicate otherwise, that they neither caused nor contributed to any contamination at the William Dick Site. Moreover, the Armstrongs have cooperated fully with the Department in its oversight of response actions at the Site. The Department has determined that the transfer of the property to West Caln Township for the preservation of open space in Chester County in perpetuity is consistent with, and an important component of, a sound land-use policy and will provide for an enhanced wildlife habitat area, long-term protection for an important groundwater recharge and source area for certain waters of this Commonwealth, and increased recreational opportunities for the citizens of this Commonwealth. Under the terms of the DSA with the Department, the Armstrongs will make a contribution to the Department's response costs for the Site in exchange for a covenant not to sue and contribution protection from the Commonwealth.
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113). The DSA may be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Offices at 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401 by contacting either Ragesh Patel at (484) 250-5719 or Anderson Lee Hartzell at (484) 250-5866. A public comment period on the DSA will extend for a period of 60 days from the date of publication of this Notice. Interested persons may submit written comments regarding the DSA to the Department by submitting them to Ragesh Patel at the previous address.

Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting For the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Watershed of South Branch Plum Creek In Indiana County Southwest Region: Watershed Management Program Manager, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the watershed of South Branch Plum Creek in Indiana County. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of The Clean Water Act. Streams within this watershed were listed in Pennsylvania's 2006 Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report as being impaired due to sedimentation resulting from agricultural activities.
There currently are no State or Federal in-stream numerical water quality criteria for sediment. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. The proposed TMDL sets allowable loadings of sediment in the watershed of South Branch Plum Creek. Sediment loadings were allocated among all land use categories present in the watershed. Data used in establishing this TMDL were generated using a water quality analysis model designed by the Pennsylvania State University.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. The proposed TMDL and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us (PA Keyword: TMDL). To request a copy of this TMDL, contact Joe Boylan at joboylan@state.pa.us or 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222.
The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to Environmental Protection Agency for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the previous address and must be received by September 1, 2008. A public meeting to discuss the technical merits of the TMDL will be held on Wednesday, July 30, 2008, at 6 p.m. at the Grange near Davis, PA. This building is located at the intersection of Five Points and Hill Roads in Davis, PA.
