Notice of Settlement Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act
Industrial Solvents and Chemical Company
Newberry Township, York CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), has entered into a proposed consent order and agreement with a group of Potentially Responsible Parties (the PRP Group) regarding work to be performed at the Industrial Solvents and Chemical Company (ISCC) site. The ISCC site is a 9-acre parcel of land in Newberry Township, York County, adjacent to Interstate 83. The surrounding area is primarily rural, although residential, commercial and industrial developments are located within a close vicinity of the site. A number of private residential wells have been contaminated by hazardous substances migrating from the ISCC site.
ISCC was involved in the reprocessing of used solvents. Because of violations of hazardous waste requirements, the Department on July 6, 1989, terminated ISCC's authority to operate a hazardous waste treatment and storage facility. The site was abandoned in 1990 when ISCC declared bankruptcy. A total of 996 parties potentially responsible for the hazardous substances located at the ISCC site were identified by the Department.
Because of the threat to human health and the environment posed by the ISCC site, the site was placed on the Pennsylvania Priority List for Remedial Response on October 26, 1991. The Department and a group of approximately 136 cooperating Potentially Responsible Parties have conducted a number of interim actions at the site to address the release or threat of release of hazardous substances. To date, the Department has incurred costs of approximately $3 million to implement and/or oversee these interim actions. A final remedial action for the groundwater and soil at the ISCC site will be selected by the Department and implemented in the future.
Under the terms of the proposed consent order and agreement, the PRP Group will provide connection to a public water supply to certain parcels with impacted groundwater. The work to be performed will comply with the Statement of Decision signed by the Department on May 23, 1996 (see 25 Pa.B. 5779 (December 16, 1995)).
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113). This section provides that the settlement will become final upon the filing of the Department's response to any significant written comments. The proposed consent order and agreement that contains the specific terms of the settlement is available for public review and comment. The proposed consent order and agreement can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's office at One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Barbara Faletti at (717) 657-4592. A public comment period on the proposed consent order and agreement will extend for 60 days from today's date. Persons may submit written comments regarding the proposed consent order and agreement to the Department by January 9, 1997, by submitting them to Barbara Faletti at the above address.

No Cost Government Financed Reclamation Contracts Issued
The Ebensburg District Mining Office for the Department of Environmental Protection awarded a No Cost Government Financed Reclamation Contract to PBS Coals, Inc. on October 16, 1996, that will result in the removal and reclamation of 6.3 acres of coal refuse in Shade Township Somerset County, receiving stream Coal Run to Dark Shade Creek and unnamed tributary to Coal Run, application received November 27, 1995. Under the terms of the contract no reprocessing of the coal refuse may take place and no coal refuse materials may be returned to the site once removed. The contract requires total reclamation and revegetation of the project area. This project was made possible under a new program developed by DEP which allows for expedited removal and reclamation of old coal refuse piles which are generally eyesores as well as major sources of siltation and pollution to the streams of the Commonwealth.
