Under section 606 of The Clean Streams Law, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) cannot allow discharges carrying a polluting substance to a body of water already polluted by that same substance. In other words, the Department cannot approve an alternative for sewage disposal that will add to, or aid in continuing, an already polluted condition.
HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988
Prompt Interim Response
Classic Auto Restoration Services of Pittsburgh, Inc., Union Township, Washington County. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), has initiated a prompt interim response at the Classic Auto Restoration Services, Inc. Site (Site) located at 28 Davidson Avenue in Elrama, Union Township, Washington County. This response has been initiated under sections 501(a) and 501(b) of the HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.501(a) and 6020.505(b)).
The Site consists of a dilapidated building situated on 13 lots. The front of the building faces Davidson Street, while the back of the building faces an alley. The property once operated as a specialty electroplating facility, primarily for car parts. Classic Auto Restoration Services of Pittsburgh, Inc. (CARS), the most recent company to operate the facility, ceased operation in November 2004 and abandoned the building along with the chemicals used in the electroplating process. The chemicals include various corrosives, oxidizers, poisons such as cyanide and metals (nickel, chromium, lead, cadmium, copper, and the like) and listed hazardous wastes. The chemicals and wastes are stored in different containers in deteriorating condition, some of which are exposed to the elements. The facility is located in a residential area and is in close proximity to occupied homes.
The Department proposes a Prompt Interim Response to address threats to human health and the environment such as direct contact, inhalation, ingestion, explosion and fire. To eliminate the ongoing release of hazardous substances and threat of release of hazardous substances, sources of soil to groundwater contamination will be removed from the Site.
For this Prompt Interim Response, the Department considered three alternatives for this Site: Alternative 1--No action; Alternative 2--Characterization, Removal and Disposal; and Alternative 3--Fencing. Each alternative was evaluated with respect to four comparison criteria of: (1) the extent to which each alternative protects the public health and the environment; (2) the extent to which each alternative complies with or otherwise addresses State and Federal requirements; (3) the extent to which each alternative is feasible, effective, implementable and permanent; and (4) the relative cost of each alternative.
Based on the comparative analysis, the Department chose to implement Alternative 2 as the Prompt Interim Response for the Site. This alternative was implemented because it would, in the most cost-effective manner, permanently protect the public, site workers and the environment from direct contact, inhalation and ingestion of hazardous substances and wastes at the Site and eliminate the threat of fire and explosion and ongoing release and threat of release of hazardous substances into the environment.
The Prompt Interim Response, Alternative 2, would not be a final remedial response under section 504 of HSCA and, therefore, is not required to meet the standards that apply to final remedial responses. Additional responses may be necessary to address contaminated soils and groundwater at the Site. However, Alternative 2 will be consistent with any future remedial actions and future investigation activities.
This notice is being provided under section 506(b) of HSCA. The administrative record, which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this Prompt Interim Response, is available for public review and comment. The administrative record is located at the Department's Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 and is available for review Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Telephone (412) 442-4000 for an appointment The administrative record will be open for comment from December 17, 2005, until February 17, 2005. Persons may submit written comments into the record during this time only by sending them to Annette Paluh, Project Manager, Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 or by delivering them to the office in person.
In addition, persons may present oral comments for inclusion in the administrative record at a public hearing scheduled for January 17, 2005, at 7 p.m. at the El Rama Volunteer Fire Hall, 17 El Rama Avenue, El Rama, PA, 15038 . Persons wishing to present comments should register with Helen Humphreys before 12 p.m., January 17, 2005, at the Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, (412) 442-4183, hhumphreys@state.pa. us.
Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceedings, should call Helen Humphreys at (412) 442-4000 or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
Proposed Consent Order and Agreement
Earlin Equipment Company, Inc., Mays/Hickman Road Site, Robinson Township, Allegheny County The 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 (CO & A) with Earlin Equipment Company, Inc. (Earlin). The proposed CO & A resolves the HSCA transporter liability of Earlin for reimbursement of costs expended by the Department at property located in Robinson Township, Allegheny County (Site). Earlin inherited its liability from Phillips Contracting Company, Inc. (Phillips) by virtue of Earlin's August 2002 merger with Phillips. Phillips had incurred liability as a result of its selection of the Site for transport and its actual transport there of various hazardous substances later released and threatened to be released into the environment.
Beginning in the mid-1950s and until at least 1964, Jake Phillips, Sr. hauled to the Site carbon sweepings dross and various industrial waste from the Pittsburgh Coke and Chemical facility (mid-1950s through 1959) and from the Pittsburgh Activated Carbon facility (1960 through 1964), both located on Neville Island. In September 1959, Jake Phillips, Sr. incorporated his hauling business as Phillips. The hauling from the two facilities conducted by Jake Phillips, Sr. and by Phillips resulted in a pile at the Site of about 1,200 tons of carbon sweepings and industrial waste, including eight leaking 55-gallon drums.
A 1993 United States Environmental Protection Agency investigation and 1994 and 2001 investigations by the Department found various volatile and semivolatile contamination at the Site. In 2003, to address this contamination, the Department conducted an interim response under section 501(a) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.501(a)). The Department's interim response entailed the removal and proper disposal of all Site waste. As a result of its Site investigation and its interim response, the Department incurred costs in the amount of $1,385,368. In September 2003, the Department settled its costs claim against Wilmington Securities, Inc. (Wilmington), for $420,000. Wilmington inherited HSCA generator liability from its corporate predecessor, Pittsburgh Coke and Chemical.
The proposed CO & A calls for payment by Earlin of $125,000, in three installments, in exchange for the Department's covenant not to sue.
Under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113), the Department is publishing notice of the proposed CO & A and will provide a 60-day period for public comment on the CO & A beginning with the date of this publication. Copies of the CO & A can be obtained by contacting Terry Goodwald at (412) 442-4000. The proposed CO & A will be open for public comment from December 17, 2005, through February 17, 2006. Persons may submit comments into the record, during this time only, by sending them to Terry Goodwald, Department of Environmental Protection, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 or by delivering them in person to this office.
The Department has reserved the right to withdraw its consent to the CO & A if comments submitted during the public comment period disclose facts or considerations which indicate, in the Department's judgment, that the CO & A is inappropriate or not in the public interest.
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 Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (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, shall 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 refuse 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 after 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.

Code § 250.8, administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act), require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of 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 provisions of 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 refuse 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 provisions of 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.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.
