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 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.

EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PERMIT AMENDMENT The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) provides notice of a complete application for a permit amendment for the following listed Chapter 102 Permit, issued for the Pennsylvania Pipeline Project (PPP)/Mariner East II.
Ch. 102 Permit No. Applicant Name & Address Counties DEP Regional Office ESG0100015001 Sunoco Pipeline, LP (SPLP)
535 Fritztown Road
Sinking Spring, PA 19608Chester Southeast Region Chapter 102 Permit No. ESG0100015001
This request, received January 19, 2022, is entitled Major Amendment Request Marsh Creek Sediment Remediation, Upper Uwchlan Township, Chester County. This amendment was submitted as required under the terms of the Consent Order and Agreement entered into between the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, and SPLP dated December 6, 2021.
This Major Amendment is requested to support the dewatering of sediment dredged from a predetermined area of Marsh Creek Lake. The sediment dredging plan is detailed in the submitted Marsh Creek Lake Impact Assessment and Restoration Plan dated December 3, 2021, and approved by the Department on December 6, 2021.
Hydraulically dredged sediments will be pumped to an upland sediment management area (SMA) to be passively dewatered using geotextile tubes. Following completion of sufficient dewatering, sediment will be loaded onto trucks for transportation off-site for disposal at an approved disposal facility. All facilities will be temporary, and all upland areas will be restored back to existing conditions, grades, and elevations following completion of sediment load-out work. Access to the workspace will utilize a rock construction entrance off Lakeview Road.
An increase to the limits of disturbance (LOD) of 4.06 acres is being requested. This includes 1.37 acres of proposed bulk earthwork where areas will be topsoiled and graded for the purposes of installing the rock construction entrance, temporary construction road and the preparation of the SMA where the geotubes will be placed. The remaining 2.69 acres will be used for the temporary storage of materials, products or equipment associated dredging and dewatering activity and will not be topsoiled or graded. Utilization of these areas is not proposed to result in earth disturbance but will include erosion and sedimentation (E&S) controls and have been included as part of the LOD.
For more detailed information regarding the Southeast Regional Office Chapter 102 permit (ESG0100015001) related to this project, which is available in the Department's Regional Office and available online at dep.pa.gov/pipelines, contact the Southeast Regional Office, (484) 250-5160 to request a file review.
