Provisions of Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the 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, will 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 reuse 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.

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—6026.907).
Section 250.8 of 25 Pa. Code and administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the 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. 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. Plans and reports required by 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 reuse 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.

Removal of the slab shall be completed in dry work conditions by dam and pumping, fluming or diverting stream flow around the work area. The concrete slab and its encased pipes shall be properly disposed. Since Jack Dents Branch is both a wild trout and stock trout fishery, no in-stream activity shall be conducted in or along the stream channel between October 1 to December 31 and March 1 to June 15 without prior written approval from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission. The project is located along the northern right-of-way of Jack Dent Road approximately 1.8-miles east of Medix Grade Road and Jack Dent Road intersection. This approval under Chapter 105, Section 105.12(a)(11) also includes 401 Water Quality Certification.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Notice of Requirements
The Covered Device Recycling Act—
Act 108 of 2010 (CDRA)This notice provides information about the requirements of the CDRA.
Electronic products constitute one of the fastest growing streams of today's consumer and commercial waste. On November 23, 2010, the Pennsylvania General Assembly passed the Covered Device Recycling CDRA; which establishes a number of requirements for individuals and entities involved throughout the life cycle of certain ''covered'' electronic devices. Covered devices include desktop computers, laptop computers, computer monitors, computer peripherals and televisions.
Beginning January 1, 2012, most of the CDRA requirements go into effect. Outlined below, these requirements address the manufacture, sales, and end-of-life collection, management and recycling of covered devices in Pennsylvania.
Manufacturers of covered devices offered for sale in Pennsylvania:
• Beginning January 1, 2012, must annually register their covered device brands with DEP, and affix brand labels to their new covered devices.
• Must establish and conduct ongoing recycling programs that offer no cost covered device collection opportunities to consumers. No cost means no fee may be charged unless a financial incentive, such as a coupon or rebate, of equal or greater value is provided. The devices collected through these programs must be properly recycled at certified electronics recycling facilities.
• Must report covered device collection and recycling data to DEP annually.
Retailers that offer covered devices for sale in Pennsylvania:
• Beginning January 1, 2012, may only sell covered devices that are labeled with a brand registered with DEP.
• Must notify customers of how and where they can recycle their covered devices.
• Are not required to offer covered device collection opportunities; but if they do, they must offer them to consumers at no cost. No cost means no fee may be charged unless a financial incentive, such as a coupon or rebate, of equal or greater value is provided. Any devices collected from consumers must be properly recycled at certified recycling facilities.
Electronics Recycling Facilities:
• Whether located in or outside of Pennsylvania, facilities that process or recycle covered devices that are collected from consumers through any electronics collection program in Pennsylvania, whether municipal, manufacturer, retailer, etc., must have achieved and maintained one of the following certifications:
• R2 (Responsible Recycling Practices Standard) Certification,
• e-Stewards Certification,
• An internationally accredited third-party environmental management standard for the safe and responsible handling of covered devices.
• Current PA Residual Waste Regulations, requiring electronics processing/recycling facilities that are located in Pennsylvania to obtain a DEP general permit #WMGR081 (regarding the processing and beneficial use of electronic equipment and components by sorting, disassembling or mechanical processing) prior to processing any electronic devices or electronic waste, remain in effect.
Haulers and Transfer Stations:
• Covered devices that are collected from consumers through electronics collection programs in Pennsylvania may only be recycled at certified electronics recycling facilities.
The PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP):
• Will post and maintain a list of registered and non-compliant covered device brands on its website for retailers and consumers to access.
• Will also post on its website and make available via its toll-free recycling hotline (1-800-346-4242) an up-to-date list of all covered device collection opportunities offered to consumers, including those offered by manufacturers and retailers.
• Will review manufacturers' covered device collection and recycling plans, and will oversee the implementation of all approved plans to ensure compliance with the CDRA.
• Will encourage the use of existing covered device collection infrastructure to the extent that it is cost effective, and is environmentally sound.
• Will organize and coordinate public education and outreach regarding the recycling of covered devices, including assisting retailers as necessary in the conduct of their public education and outreach efforts.
Beginning January 24, 2013, a disposal ban on covered devices goes into effect in Pennsylvania. From this point forward, no person may dispose of a covered device, or any of its components, with their municipal solid waste. These devices and their components must be properly recycled and may not be taken to nor accepted by landfills or other solid waste disposal facilities for disposal. However, non-hazardous residuals of covered devices that are produced during the recycling of those devices by solid waste disposal facilities are excluded from the disposal ban. The effects of the disposal ban are outlined below.
Consumers:
• May not dispose of their covered devices with municipal waste.
• Will need to take their covered devices to an electronics collection location for proper recycling, or place for curbside collection if a specific electronics collection program is offered.
Businesses:
• May not dispose of their covered devices with municipal waste.
• Will need to recycle their covered devices.
Landfills and Resource Recovery Facilities:
• May not accept covered devices or their components for disposal. However, they may accept non-hazardous residuals produced during the recycling of covered devices.
• Owners and operators of landfills will not be found in violation of the CDRA so long as they make a good faith effort to comply with the Act; post, in a conspicuous location at the facility, a sign stating that covered devices and their components will not be accepted; and notify, in writing, all collectors registered to deposit solid waste to the facility that covered devices and their components will not be accepted at the facility.
Haulers:
• May not intentionally accept covered devices for disposal from any source of waste, and may not knowingly commingle covered devices with waste destined for disposal.
