Public Notice of Draft NPDES General Permit No. PAG31001 for Discharges from Stripper Oil Well Facilities
The Department of Environmental Protection proposes to reissue a general National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for the controlled discharge of treated production fluids from primary recovery, waterflood, and gas drive stripper oil well facilities into surface waters of the Commonwealth. The permit will be issued subject to certain effluent limitations and special conditions.
This general permit will apply to certain discharges from primary recovery, waterflood, and gas drive stripper oil well facilities located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Stripper oil wells produce 10 barrels per well per calendar day or less of crude oil. Operations using secondary or tertiary recovery methods such as thermal or chemical methods, and commercial or offsite centralized treatment facilities are excluded from coverage under this permit. The facilities affected by the general permit are included under 40 CFR Part 435 Subpart F--Stripper Subcategory and SIC Code 1311, Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas.
The Department's regulations at 25 Pa. Code §§ 92.81 through 92.83 provide for the issuance of a general NPDES permit when:
(1) The same, or substantially similar, types of operations are involved;
(2) The same types of wastes are being discharged;
(3) The same effluent limitations and/or operating conditions are required;
(4) The same or similar monitoring is required;
(5) The discharge does not contain toxic or hazardous pollutants or any other substance which--because of its quantity, concentration, or physical, chemical, or infectious characteristics--may cause or contribute to an increase in mortality or morbidity in either an individual or the total population, or pose a substantial present or future hazard to human health or the environment when discharged into navigable waters;
(6) The discharges are more appropriately controlled under a general permit than under individual permits;
(7) Individually and cumulatively, the discharges do not have the potential to cause significant adverse environmental impact; and
(8) The discharge is not to ''special protection'' waters.
The Department has determined that these discharges are eligible for a general NPDES permit because these facilities are similar in nature and discharge the same type of wastes. These facilities are relatively small in size and the rates of the discharge flow can be controlled to levels that do not have the potential to pose a threat to human health, cause environmental harm or violate water quality standards. Because of the size, number and operational procedures of the facilities, the discharges from these facilities are more appropriately covered under a general permit.
A brief description of the conditions of the permit are as follows:
--The permit does not authorize discharges to waters classified as ''Special Protection'' as defined in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 93;
--The proposed effluent limitations are:
Average Instantaneous Parameter Monthly (mg/l) Maximum (mg/l) Total Suspended Solids 30 60 Oil and Grease 15 30 Total Iron 3.5 7 Acidity less than alkalinity pH not less than 6.0 standard units or greater than 9.0 standard units (except where the discharge is to an acid stream, in which case the pH may be greater than 9.0).
Also, the discharge shall at no time cause a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the waters of the Commonwealth or adjoining shoreline. And, there shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts.
--The discharge shall not result in a violation of the water quality criteria prescribed in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 16 and 93 for the various designated uses of the receiving stream.
--The operator shall not add any water as dilution water in order to meet the effluent limits in the permit.
--Prior to commencing any discharge, A Part II Construction/Operation Permit under section 308 of The Clean Streams Law must be obtained.
Once notice of the final permit is issued, eligible dischargers who wish to be covered by this general NPDES permit will need to file an application for coverage with the Department and receive approval for coverage for each discharge prior to commencing any discharge. Application for renewal of coverage or notification to cease discharging must be submitted in accordance with the notice sent to the permittee by the Department. Each application for coverage will be reviewed for compliance with the terms of the general permit which includes verifying that the water quality standards of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 93 will not be violated. An individual approval will be issued to dischargers that qualify. No application fee will be required for coverage under this general NPDES permit.
Persons wishing to comment on the draft general permit are invited to submit a written statement to James E. Erb, Director, Bureau of Oil and Gas Management, located at P. O. Box 8765, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8765, telephone number (717) 772-2199, within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within this 30-day period will be considered in the formulation of the final determination of the permit. Comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of the comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based. A public hearing may be held if the Director considers the public interest in holding a hearing significant. Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings should contact the Bureau of Oil and Gas Management. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at 1 (800) 654-5984.

Proposed Remedial Response under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act
Crown Industries Site
Lackawaxen Township, Pike CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) (HSCA), proposes to initiate the second phase of the remedial response at the Crown Industries Site (site) located in Lackawaxen Township, Pike County.
The site is located near the small rural town of Bohemia on an unpaved road known as Blue Stone Drive in the Huggy Bear Lake Development, Lackawaxen Township, Pike County. The site is approximately 7 acres in size and consists of two areas of ponded water and several piles of contaminated soil. A quarry operation lies to the Southwest of the site. Eighty-eight homes (approximately 225 persons) are located within 1 mile of the site.
Chemical analysis of the contaminated soil found on the site shows that it contains polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), tetrachlorodibenzo dioxin (dioxin) and metals.
The Department's objective in addressing the site is to eliminate the threat to human health posed by inhalation and/or dermal contact from site contaminants.
To achieve this objective, the following alternatives were considered:
Alternative 1: No Action
Alternative 1 provides a baseline against which other alternatives can be compared. Under this alternative, no activities would be implemented at the site. Because no remedial actions would be implemented with this alternative, neither the human nor the environmental risks associated with the site would decrease.
Alternative 2: Limited Action
Alternative 2 combines no action with the implementation of institutional controls (fencing, posting signs and deed restrictions) to restrict access to and reduce the potential exposure to contaminants. Long-term groundwater monitoring and periodic site reviews would be performed.
Alternative 3: Removal and Treatment/Disposal at Off-Site Disposal Facility
This alternative would implement remedial actions to excavate and remove soil identified as containing contaminants at levels above the respective cleanup levels. In this alternative, contaminated soil would be excavated and transported off of the site for disposal. Although the contaminated material will be removed, limited deed restrictions and groundwater monitoring may be necessary.
Alternative 4: Removal and Onsite Treatment with Rotary Kiln Incineration
Alternative 5: Removal and Onsite Treatment with Thermal Desorption
Alternative 6: Removal and Onsite Treatment with Slagging
Each of the onsite treatment alternatives listed above is characterized by the following identical components:
* Excavation of soils from on-Site areas containing contamination above the selected cleanup levels followed by treatment for removal of dioxin and PCBs.
* Processing to homogenize the waste prior to treatment in an attempt to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment system.
* Offsite disposal of residual material.
* Onsite disposal of treated soil as backfill material in areas of the site where native material is excavated. Areas of the site that appear to have been filled will not be backfilled.
* Deed restrictions, groundwater monitoring and periodic site reviews.
Alternative 7: Removal, Stabilization/Solidification and Disposal in Onsite Landfill
In this alternative, contaminated soil would be excavated, stabilized/solidified and placed in a new landfill that would be constructed on the site. The onsite landfill would be constructed in accordance with the regulations of 40 CFR Part 264, Subpart N--Landfills. The material to be placed within the landfill, in addition to being a TSCA waste (PCB levels in excess of 50 mg/kg), will have the characteristics of a RCRA hazardous waste (contain levels of lead in leachate that equal or exceed the maximum concentrations for toxicity characteristic). This alternative would include long-term groundwater monitoring and deed restrictions.
Proposed Response
The Department's proposed response to address the contaminated material at the site is Alternative 3 (removal of contaminated soils followed by disposal at an offsite disposal facility). This response is considered a final remedial response addressing onsite contaminated soils. The Department's goal is to remove the threats of direct contact and offsite migration by excavating contaminated soils and removing to an offsite permitted facility. This alternative was selected over the others since this method was proven to be permanent and more cost effective than the other alternatives.
The administrative record, which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this response action, is available for public review. The administrative record will be available for public inspection from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, at the Department's Northeast Regional Office located at 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711.
Written comments concerning the response or information in the administrative record will be accepted in person, if delivered, or by mail, if postmarked, on or before November 12, 1996, to the attention of Paul Panek, Project Officer--Hazardous Sites Cleanup Program, at the Northeast Regional Office address.
Additionally, the public will have an opportunity to present oral comments at a public hearing. The public hearing has been scheduled for September 24, 1996, at 7 p.m. at the Lackawaxen Township Municipal Building which is located off of Route 590 in the village of Lackawaxen. Persons wishing to present oral comments must register on or before September 17, 1996, by calling Paul Panek at (717) 826-2589. Persons interested in finding out if anyone has registered or the location of the hearing should contact Paul Panek.
The Department is providing this notice under section 506(b) of the HSCA. The date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin initiates the minimum 90 day public comment period on the administrative record, as provided under that act. Questions concerning this site may be directed to Paul Panek at (717) 826-2589, or Dennis Abraham, Assistant Counsel, at (610) 832-6300.
