Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P.S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704 (relating to Administrative Agency Law).
The appeal should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P.O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, 717-787-3483. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30-days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law. For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal must reach the Board within 30-days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board. Individuals who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at 717-787-3483 for more information. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at 717-787-3483. Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should contact a lawyer at once.
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).
For actions taken on applications for pipelines that are regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Any person aggrieved by this action may challenge it in an appropriate legal forum. The State and Federal courts are currently split on whether the proper forum to challenge a Department permit, authorization or approval for a facility or activity subject to the Federal Natural Gas Act, 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 717 et seq., is the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit or the Pennsylvania Environmental Hearing Board. See Delaware Riverkeeper Network v. Sec'y, Dep't of Envtl. Prot., 833 F.3d 360 (3d Cir. 2016); Delaware Riverkeeper Network v. Sec'y, Dep't of Envtl.

Municipality Address County Leacock Township P.O. Box 558 Intercourse, PA 17534 Lancaster County Plan Description:
Betty J. Wanner Subdivision, A3-36935-338-2. The revision to the official plan of Leacock Township, Lancaster County, for the Betty J. Wanner Subdivision (DEP Code No. A3-36935-338-2; APS ID No. 1107343) has been disapproved. The proposed development—to be located at 4022 East Newport Road in Gordonville—consists of creating a residential lot with a single-family dwelling. This plan revision has been disapproved because it was administratively incomplete; among the items that were either missing or incorrect were: a resolution of adoption that was inconsistent with the regulations, the submission of an incorrect review fee, and the omission of a required preliminary hydrogeologic study.

Ridge Run PFAS HSCA Site, Old Bethlehem Pike, Bethlehem Pike, Tabor Road, Hill Road and North Rockhill Road, Sellersville, PA 18960, East and West Rockhill Townships, Bucks County.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Pennsylvania Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA), 35 P.S. § 6020.1113, has entered a Consent Order and Agreement (COA) with D.R. Horton, Inc.—New Jersey (Horton) and Park Hill Estates Community Association (Association), regarding the Ridge Run PFAS Site (Site), located in East and West Rockhill Townships.
Hazardous substances and/or contaminants within the meaning of Section 103 of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, 35 P.S. § 6020.103, were released and threatened to be released on the Site. Pursuant to Section 501(a) of HSCA, 35 P.S. § 6020.501(a), the Department performed response actions at the Site to abate the release of hazardous substances and/or contaminants found, which included Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS). The Department's response actions included well sampling in the impacted areas; the provision of bottled water and the installation and maintenance of whole-house filtration systems for impacted properties; and the investigation of environmental media to determine the nature and extent of the contamination in the environment.
Horton is interested in acquiring a certain property within the Site located at 1731 Old Bethlehem Pike (Premises ''A'' and ''B''), Sellersville (Property). Park Hill Estates Community Association would provide maintenance activities at the Property following its acquisition. Horton and the Association desire to resolve any potential liability that they may incur from the purchase and operation of the Property for the releases at the Site. Under the COA, Horton will pay to the Department the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) for response costs incurred by the Department, and Horton and the Association will receive a covenant not to sue and be eligible for contribution protection in connection with certain claims described in the COA.
This notice is provided under Section 1113 of HSCA, 35 P.S. § 6020.1113, which states that, ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to significant written comments''. The COA is available for public review and comment. An electronic copy or hard copy of the COA may be requested by contacting either Colin Wade at (484) 250-5722 or cowade@pa.gov or Brian Glass, Esquire at (484) 250-5870 or briaglass@pa.gov. A public comment period on the COA will extend for 60 days from today's date. Persons may submit written comments regarding the COA by submitting them under the subject line ''Horton COA'' via electronic mail to Colin Wade at the previously listed email address or via U.S. Mail to Colin Wade at 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.
The Department has reserved the right to withdraw its consent to the COA if comments submitted during the public comment period disclose facts or considerations which indicate, in the Department's discretion, that the COA is inappropriate or not in the public interest.

Topton Site, Borough of Topton, Berks County, PA.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA), 35 P.S. §§ 6020.101 et seq., has entered into three (3) separate proposed Consent Order and Agreements (COAs) with regard to the following parties with respect to the following properties on the Northwest and Northeast corners of the intersection of Washington and North Main Streets, in Topton, Pennsylvania. The properties are a part of the Topton Site (Site) located in the Borough of Topton, Berks County, PA.
• Proposed COA between the Department, Merson USA GS-SPV-Topton GMI LLC (Mersen-GMI), and tenant Graphite Machining, Inc. (GMI), with respect to property identified as Berks Tax Parcel No./Property ID No. 85546316930824.
• Proposed COA between the Department, Merson USA GS-SPV-Topton ACT LLC (Mersen-ACT), and tenant Advanced Carbon Technologies, Inc. (ACT), with respect to property identified as Berks Tax Parcel No./Property ID No. 85546316837840.
• Proposed COA between the Department, Merson USA GS-SPV-Topton Field LLC (Mersen-Field) with respect to property identified as Berks Tax Parcel No./Property ID No. 85546316933927.
All three (3) parcels are currently owned by Lehigh Industries, Ltd, (Seller), and were historically used for a variety of industrial and manufacturing activities. The Seller purchased the parcels in 1988. Two of the parcels, Berks Tax Parcel No./Property ID No. 85546316930824 and 85546316837840, were leased to GMI and ACT in 2000, respectively.
Starting in 1982, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) contamination, including tetrachloroethene (PCE), was identified in groundwater at the Site, and was found to have impacted residential groundwater wells in Topton, and Longswamp, and Maxatawny Townships. Beginning in 1995, the Department engaged in HSCA interim response actions to address contamination at the Site. These response actions have included the maintenance of Point of Entry Treatment (POET) on impacted wells; excavation and disposal of certain PCE contaminated Site soils; and in situ chemical oxidation treatment of contaminated Site soils and groundwater. The Department continues to monitor and treat groundwater at the Site.
Mersen-GMI, Mersen-ACT, and Mersen-Field (collectively, Purchasers) represent that that they each had no involvement with the respective properties that they seek to purchase other than as a prospective purchaser performing due diligence. The Department has no information that any of the Purchasers ever contributed to the contamination at the Site, or has ever been affiliated with the Seller. Similarly, the Department has no information that either ACT or GMI ever contributed to the contamination found at the Site.
Under the terms and conditions of the prospective COAs, the Department has covenanted not to sue any of the Purchasers for response costs arising from the release or threatened release of hazardous substances at the Site. The Purchasers, GMI, and ACT have each also covenanted not to sue the Department for response costs arising from the release or threatened release of hazardous substances at the Site. Each Purchaser will also submit payment to the Department in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) towards the Department's past response costs at the Site (i.e. total of thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) for all three (3) properties).
This notice is provided pursuant to Section 1113 of HSCA, 35 P.S. § 6020.1113, which states that, ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to significant written comments.'' The Department has reserved the right to withdraw its consent to any or all of the proposed COAs if comments submitted during the public comment period disclose facts or considerations which indicate, in the Department's discretion, that any or all of the proposed COAs are inappropriate or are not in the public interest. A person adversely affected by any or of these settlements may file an appeal with the Pennsylvania Environmental Hearing Board. The public comment period on the COAs will extend for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of this notice. Persons may submit written comments regarding the COAs by mail to Larry Smith, Geologist, Department of Environmental Protection, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110 or by email to larrysmit@pa.gov. Further information, or copies of the COAs, can be obtained by contacting Larry Smith at 717-705-4842 or Dennis Yuen at dyuen@pa.gov or 717-783-0367.
