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—6026.907).
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.
For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office under 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.

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.

SR 0026, Section A04 Lick Run Bridge Replacement in Marion Township, Centre County, ACOE Baltimore District (Mingoville, PA Quadrangle; Latitude: 40° 59` 58"; Longitude -77° 38` 43").
PA DOT Engineering District 3-0 proposes to replace a single span reinforced concrete arch with a single span precast concrete spread box beam bridge. The existing bridge has a span of 40.1 Ft., a skew of 90 degrees, an underclearance of 1.78 Ft., a low chord of 795.64 Ft. and a hydraulic opening of 167 Ft2. The proposed bridge has a span of 39.9 Ft., a skew of 70 degrees, an underclearance of 2.3 Ft., a low chord of 799.57 Ft. and a hydraulic opening of 188 Ft2. The proposed structure will be shifted approximately 25 Ft. upstream to better align the structure with the horizontal roadway curve. The project will utilize R-8 Rip Rap scour protection around the abutments and wingwalls. The project will temporarily impact 0.01 acre and permanently impact 0.05 acre of jurisdictional wetlands and does not require mitigation. Lick Run is classified as an Exceptional Value Stream by Title 25, Chapter 93 Water Quality Standards and a Class A Wild Trout Stream by PA Fish and Boat Commission. This permit also includes 401 Water Quality Certification.

Approval of a Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT II) plan for E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company located in North Towanda Township, Bradford County.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.96—129.100, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a preliminary determination to approve a RACT II plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the Towanda facility owned and operated by E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company in North Towanda Township, Bradford County.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the amended RACT II approval for the facility, which are intended to satisfy the requirements for the 1997 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) and the 2008 NAAQS for ozone.
The proposed amendments to the RACT II determination, if finally approved, will be incorporated into a revised operating permit (08-00002) for the facility. The relevant RACT II requirements will be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania's State Implementation Plan and will remain in effect until replaced pursuant to 40 CFR 51 and approval by the EPA. Requirements that are not part of the RACT II determination will be excluded from the SIP submittal includes the provisions of the Department's presumptive Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT II) requirements in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 129.97, as they apply to existing sources at this facility.
The following is a summary of the proposed amendments to the RACT II determination for this operation that will be submitted to the EPA as a SIP revision:
Source RACT II Requirement Source P147—TR-1 and Cleanup Operations Volatile Organic Compounds. VOC emissions shall be limited to 3.70 tons in any 12-consecutive month period Source P159—New Era Film Coater Volatile Organic Compounds VOC emission shall be limited to 24.46 tons in any 12-consecutive month period. VOC emissions from Source P159 shall be controlled by Control Device C159 Public hearing.

Jewett, PA 16740. Pennsylvania Grade Crude Oil Coalition (PGCC) is planning to plug an abandoned oil and gas well (API No. 083-30868) located in Corydon Township, McKean County. The roadway providing access to the subject well is being decommissioned by the Allegheny National Forest, and if the well is not plugged at this time, future access will be much more difficult. The well plugging project will affect an area of less than 1 acre. Complete project proposal received April 30, 2018.
