Municipality Address County East Franklin Township 106 Cherry Orchard Avenue
Kittanning, PA 16201Armstrong County Plan Description:
Fox Hollow Sanitary Sewer Line Extension, M6-21-272. The proposal consists of the decommissioning and removal of the existing Fox Hollow Sewage Treatment Plant, PA0217476, and the construction of a sanitary sewer line extension to the West Hills Area Water Pollution Control Authority (WHAWPCA) collection system. The existing sewage treatment plant (STP) and sanitary sewer line extension are located along Toy Road, Booher Road, and Claypoole Road. A total of 44 homes will be served, generating 17,600 gallons per day of sewage to be conveyed to the WHAWPCA Wastewater Treatment Facility. The project must be completed in accordance with the Corrective Action Plan (CAP) made between the Department and East Franklin Township as approved by letter dated December 2, 2021. Alternatives considered included rehabilitation and upgrade of the existing STP (most expensive), extending sewers to the North (grinder pumps and/or a pump station would be needed with projected farm impacts), and doing nothing. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. Any required NPDES Permits or WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality or authority as appropriate.

John David King Residence Subdivision, A3-36913-229-2; A3-36949-284-2. The revisions to the official plans of Bart Township and Sadsbury Township, Lancaster County, for the John David King Residence Subdivision (DEP Code Nos. A3-36913-229-2 & A3-36949-284-2; APS ID No. 1078572) have been disapproved. The proposed development—to be located at 7445 White Oak Road in Christiana—consists of two semi-detached dwellings using blackwater holding tanks and a community graywater on-lot disposal system. These plan revisions have been disapproved because: a copy of the planning submission was not completed by Sadsbury Township regarding the sewage facilities proposed in that municipality; the sewage enforcement officer conducting soils testing in Sadsbury Township was not employed by that municipality; some requirements for the proposed disposal method were either not completed or were completed incorrectly; and the review fee provided was insufficient for what was proposed by the submission.

The proposed development is located at 142 Rebecca Furnace Road, Martinsburg, PA.

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 Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P.S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) 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, please contact the Regional Office Program Manager previously listed in the notice.
Individuals in need of accommodations should contact DEP through the Pennsylvania Hamilton Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD users) or (800) 654-5988 (voice users).

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 of Environmental Protection (DEP) 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 DEP may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides DEP's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning plans or reports, please contact the Regional Office Program Manager previously listed in the notice.
Individuals in need of accommodations should contact DEP through the Pennsylvania Hamilton Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD users) or (800) 654-5988 (voice users).

2. The roadway diet project will also include floodway activities within the floodway of Rapp Run (TSF-MF) associated with the construction and maintenance of a portion of the CCT, roadway reconstruction, and water main installation resulting in 10,162 square feet of temporary floodway impact and 2,123 square feet of permanent floodway impact.
3. Activities within the floodplain of Pine Run (TSF-MF) include the construction and maintenance of the CCT, road-diet, drainage network, and water and sanitary force mains, and will result in 159,955 square feet (3.67 acres) of temporary floodplain impact and 2,234 square feet (0.05 acre) of permanent floodplain impact. This activity also includes the reduction of impervious space for open space.
