SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT PLAN APPROVAL
Plan Approvals Granted Under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. § 750.5)
Northeast Region: Clean Water Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701-1915
Plan Location:
Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County Sugarloaf Township P. O. Box 61 Sybertsville, PA 18251-0061 Luzerne Plan Description: The Corrective Action Plan (CAP) proposes a systematic plan to identify and propose corrective measures for portions of the Pennsylvania State University's Hazleton Campus (PSU) wastewater collection system that may be subject to excessive amounts of infiltration/inflow (I/I). The PSU CAP is to be implemented in conjunction with Sugarloaf Township's (Township) CAP for its wastewater collection system that is tributary to the Greater Hazleton Joint Sewer Authority's (GHJSA) Wastewater Treatment Facility. The Township's CAP was previously approved by the Department on March 18, 2009. Both CAP's are also intended to reduce hydraulic overloading at the GHJSA's Wastewater Treatment Facility. The PSU CAP also contains time schedules for the implementation of the activities proposed in the CAP. The CAP is now to be considered an integral part of the Township's Official Sewage Facilities Plan.
Should any of the CAP's activities not yield their expected results, tasks may need to be proposed/completed by PSU and/or the Township to eliminate the potential hydraulic overload of the Township's wastewater collection system and the existing hydraulic overload of the GHJSA's Wastewater Treatment Facility. This pertains mainly to those CAP activities where results may be significantly affected by precipitation amounts, groundwater conditions, stream flow levels, etc.
Should conditions be encountered during the implementation of the CAP, which require the alteration of the approved CAP, PSU and Sugarloaf Township shall contact the Department, in writing, and discuss the need to alter the CAP at the earliest possible time. Any additional wastewater-related improvements, additions, deletions or changes outside of those explicitly described in the CAP must be in compliance with the Department's regulations and be submitted to and approved by the Department in writing.
HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988
Public Notice of Proposed Consent Order and Agreement Currie Landfill Site
Millcreek Township, Erie County Pursuant to Section 1113 of the Pennsylvania Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, Act of October 18, 1988, P. L. 756, No. 108, 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305 (''HSCA''), notice is hereby provided that the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (''Department'') has agreed to a Consent Order and Agreement (''CO&A'') among Moxie Nein, LLC (''Moxie'') and Millcreek Township, Erie County, Pennsylvania, (''Township'') concerning the cleanup of the Currie Landfill Site (''Site''). The Site includes: the areas where D. Angus Currie and the Currie Company operated an unpermitted, municipal and industrial landfill from approximately 1947 to 1966 (the ''Landfill''); and the areas where hazardous substances, wastes, and other materials from the Landfill have been released or threaten to be released in Millcreek Township, Erie County, Pennsylvania.
In the past, wastes and other materials containing hazardous substances were dumped, spilled or otherwise disposed at the Site and these hazardous substances contaminated the soils, sediments, surface water and groundwater beneath the Site. The Department and others have investigated the Site and have thus far has identified that: 1. Stream surface water and sediment samples taken contained trichloroethylene (''TCE''), tetrachloroethylene (''PCE''), 1,2-dichloroethene (''1,2-DCE'') and vinyl chloride; 2. Areas of the landfill contain lead and cadmium bearing hazardous wastes, as that term is defined by RCRA; 3. Groundwater sampled at the site contained vinyl chloride, TCE, and PCE; 4. A total of seven VOCs were detected in the sediment samples including: acetone, 2-butanone, total 1,2-DCE, PCE, toluene, TCE, and vinyl chloride. Based upon the groundwater investigation, the presence of 1,2-DCE, PCE, TCE, and vinyl chloride in the sediments indicated migration of these contaminants from the groundwater to the surface water and sediments of the West Branch of Cascade Creek. Each of these substances is defined in Section 103 of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.103 as a ''hazardous substance''. The presence of these hazardous substances at the property constitutes a ''release'' and a ''threat of release'' of a hazardous substance, as defined in Section 103 of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.103.
After acquisition of the Site property by Moxie, a portion designated as a future recreational facility will be donated to the Township. Following the Department's response, the remaining portion will be redeveloped for commercial/industrial usage. The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the Agreement among the Department, Moxie and the Township. The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the Agreement for sixty (60) days from the date of this Public Notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the Agreement if the comments concerning the Agreement disclose facts or considerations which indicate that the Agreement is inappropriate, improper, or not in the public interest. After the public comment period, the Department's settlement with Moxie and the Township shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies Moxie and the Township, in writing, that this Agreement is final and effective in its present form, and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the Agreement, or that no such comments were received.
The Agreement is available for inspection and copying at the Department's office at 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, Pennsylvania. Comments may be submitted, in writing, to Mr. Gary Mechtly, Environmental Group Manager. Mr. Mechtly can be reached in the Department's Northwest Regional Office, located at 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335, telephone: 814-332-6648. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania Relay Service at 800-645-5984.

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—6026.907).
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.

SPECIAL NOTICES
HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988
Notice of Prompt Interim Response Ford City Equipment Site
Ford City Borough, Armstrong County The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (''Department''), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, 35 P. S. Section 6020.101 et. seq. (''HSCA''), has initiated a prompt interim response at the Ford City Equipment Site (Site). This response has been initiated pursuant to Sections 501(a) and 505(b) of the HSCA, 35 P. S. Sections 6020.501(a) 6020.505(b). The Site is located at 2nd Avenue (Eljer Way) between 9th Street and O'Connor Street in Ford City Borough, Armstrong County.
The Site consists of mercury spilled on a vacant lot where building demolition had taken place. Liquid droplets of mercury were found on a concrete area and mercury droplets were observed in nearby fill material. The Site was once the location of the PPG Ford City glass manufacturing facility, most recently the Site was occupied by Ford City Equipment Company.
The current and/or potential threat from the Site to human health or welfare is the direct contact of the contamination to persons entering the areas where the spilled mercury and potentially contaminated soil is located, access is generally unrestricted. The current and/or potential threat that could adversely affect the environment is contamination of the soil, groundwater, and surface water from runoff and/or leaching of the spilled mercury. Sediment and surface water of the Allegheny River could be impacted as a result of runoff and/or leaching of the mercury.
The Department considered the following three alternatives to address the spilled mercury at the Site: (Alternative 1) taking no action to address contamination related to the spilled mercury; (Alternative 2) fencing and securing the area affected by the mercury spill; and (Alternative 3) cleaning up and removing the spilled mercury for recycling/disposal and excavating soil and/or other material potentially impacted by the mercury for proper disposal. Alternative 3 was chosen because it complies with the applicable, relevant, and appropriate requirements.
This notice is being provided under Section 506 (b) of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act. The Administrative Record which contains information forming the basis and documenting the selection of this response action is available for public review and comment at the Department's Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 and is available for review between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.
The Administrative Record will be open for comment until July 20, 2012. Persons may submit written comments into the record, during this time only, by sending them or delivering them to Edward Litwin, Project Manager, Department of Environmental Protection, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222.
In addition, persons may present oral comments for inclusion in the Administrative Record at a public hearing scheduled for May 30, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. at the Ford City Public Library located at 1136 4th Avenue, Ford City, PA 16226. Persons wishing to present comments must register with John Poister at the Department's Southwest Regional Office, in writing at: 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 or by telephone at (412) 442- 4203 before noon, May 30, 2012.
Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceeding, should contact John Poister at (412) 442-4203 or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5954 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
NPDES Stormwater Permit NPDES Permit Stormwater PAI012306006, Sentinel Ridge Development, LLC, 110 North Phoenixville Pike, Suite 100, Malvern, PA 19355, has applied to conduct earth disturbance activities and discharge stormwater associated with construction activities located in Marple Township, Delaware County, into Holland Run (a.k.a. Hotland Run) (EV-CWF).
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has reviewed the revised permit application documentation and plans submitted by Sentinel Ridge Development, LLC and proposes, based upon its evaluation, that the NPDES permit suspension imposed by the October 22, 2009 Order of the Environmental Hearing Board (EHB) in the matter of Crum Creek Neighbors v. DEP and Pulte Homes of PA, L.P., EHB Docket No. 2007-287-L, be partially lifted to allow Sentinel Ridge Development, LLC to conduct earth disturbance activities and discharge stormwater associated with construction activities to Holland Run (EV-CWF) from Phase II of its proposed development, in accordance with the terms of the NPDES permit, including supporting documentation and plans that include a Hydrologic and Water Quality Evaluation of Stormwater Impacts on Holland Run, a Hydrogeologic Evaluation Report, and other information, that examine the effect of the project on the baseflow to Holland Run, and the effect of certain modeled basin overflows, on Holland Run. Phase II is situated in the center of the site with Phase I (under construction) to the South and Phase III (planned for future development) to the North. The Best Management Practices and the Antidegradation Analysis Module for the project site, as set forth in the previously-referenced NPDES permit, along with supporting documentation and plans, are proposed to constitute the effluent limitations for Phase II of the development.
The Department proposes to authorize earth disturbance activities in, and the discharge of stormwater associated with construction activities from, the Phase II Limit of Disturbance Area that consists of 3.3 acres in the Holland Run Watershed as depicted on the Wilkinson & Associates Plans for the development dated February 1, 2012, as revised March 27, 2012. Permanent work for the Phase II area is proposed to consist of the construction of approximately 800 feet of roadway, 29 townhomes (units 26 through 54), and Detention Basin A5. Work will include temporary earth disturbance to install Swale C, staging, stockpiling in the vicinity of Building A and to install the temporary cul-de-sac. Construction phases for the project are clearly depicted on the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan Drawings, dated June 17, 2010, as revised thereafter, that were submitted by the developer and approved by the Department and the Delaware County Conservation District. These plans are available for public inspection and review at the District's offices.
Sentinel Ridge Development, LLC is not authorized by this proposed partial lifting of the NPDES permit suspension to conduct earth disturbance activities within the Phase III Limit of Disturbance Area, or to discharge stormwater associated with construction activities from the Phase III Limit of Disturbance Area. No discharge of stormwater associated with construction activities, or earth disturbance activities draining into Holland Run, are proposed to be authorized in the area currently depicted in plan drawings for high density condominium development on the northern end of the property that includes discharges to the finger tributary to Holland Run.
The Department will accept public comment for 30 days on its proposed partial lifting of the NPDES permit suspension for the Phase II area of the development as described previously. Written comments should be addressed to the Regional Manager, Waterways and Wetlands Program, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.
