HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP

Under the Act of October 18, 1988

Availability of Brownfields Inventory Grants under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA)

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) hereby announces the availability of Brownfields Inventory Grants under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA). Under the Brownfields Inventory Grant program the Department will provide grants to municipalities and economic development agencies to inventory the brownfield properties in their areas. If these brownfield properties are available for redevelopment, the Grantee will gather information about infrastructure, suspected or confirmed environmental contamination and other related information. The Grantee will then list the site on the Pennsylvania Brownfields Directory.

   This is the third round of grants under the Department Brownfields Inventory Grant program. Under this third round of grants the Department will consider grants to inventory brownfields sites in any county that was not covered by a grant under the first or second rounds. The following counties were not addressed under the first two rounds of grants and will be considered under this third round:  Armstrong, Bradford, Carbon, Centre, Clarion, Clinton, Delaware, Elk, Fayette, Forest, Franklin, Juniata, Lycoming, Mifflin, Monroe, Montour, Northumberland, Pike, Snyder, Sullivan, Tioga, Union, Venango, Warren, Wayne and Wyoming.

   Municipalities and economic development agencies may apply to the Department for these grants by submitting an application. A copy of the application package can be obtained by calling the Department Land Recycling and Cleanup Program (717) 783-7816 or the application package can be downloaded from the Department Internet web site at:  www.dep.state.pa.us. Grant applications for this round of grants must be received by the Department on or before June 30, 2000.

   If the grant is approved, the Grantee will be paid $1,000 for each brownfield site that is identified and entered into the Department Brownfields Directory. Grants are limited to $50,000.

   The Brownfields Inventory Grants will be issued under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304). The Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act authorizes the Department to investigate and assess potential releases of hazardous substances. This includes collecting information concerning sites that are potentially contaminated with hazardous substances and that may need assessment or cleanup. Funds for the Brownfields Inventory Grants will be provided out of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Fund.

   The term ''brownfields'' shall mean properties that are underutilized and where redevelopment of the property is impeded by liabilities associated with known or suspected environmental contamination from hazardous substances.

   The term ''municipality'' shall include any county, city, borough or township government in this Commonwealth.

   The term ''economic development agency'' shall include:

   (1)  Any redevelopment authority created under the act of May 24, 1945 (P. L. 991, No. 385), known as the Urban Redevelopment Law.

   (2)  Any industrial development agency as that term is defined in the act of May 17, 1956 (1955 P. L. 1609, No. 537), known as the Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority Act.

   (3)  Any industrial and commercial development authority created under the act of August 23, 1967 (P. L. 251, No. 102) known as the Economic Development Financing Law.

   (4)  Any area loan organization as that term is defined in the act of July 2, 1984 (P. L. 545, No. 109), known as the Capital Loan Fund Act.

   (5)  Any other Commonwealth or municipal authority which acquires title or an interest in property.

   (6)  Municipalities or municipal industrial development or community development departments organized by ordinance under a home rule charter which buy and sell land for community development purposes.

   (7)  Tourist promotion agencies or their local community- based nonprofit sponsor which engage in the acquisition of former industrial sites as part of an ''Industrial Heritage'' or similar program.

   (8)  Conservancies engaged in the renewal or reclamation of an industrial site.

Notice of Settlement under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9607--9675 and the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA), 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305, hereby gives notice that it has entered into proposed Consent Decrees with Mitchell Lightman, Lightman Drum, Inc., Patrick Kelly Drums, Inc., and James T. Warring Sons, Inc. (collectively, Settlors), relating to the cleanup of the Quality Container Corporation Site located at the intersection of East Ontario Street and Collins Street, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, PA. The proposed Consent Decrees have been lodged with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania pending completion of the public notice requirements set forth by statute.

   The Quality Container Corporation Site was the location of a former steel drum reconditioning facility, and was contaminated with a variety of hazardous substances including solvents and metals. Under its authority of section 501(a) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.501(a)), the Department has implemented and completed an Interim Response from March 20, 1995 to February 8, 1996 to remove the hazardous substances at the site. Under the proposed Consent Decrees, the Settlors have agreed to reimburse the Department for approximately $180,000 of the response costs incurred.

   This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113). The Department will provide for a 60-day public comment period on the proposed Consent Order and Agreement from the date of publication of this Notice. The proposed Consent Order and Agreement may be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's office at Lee Park, Suite 6010, 555 North Lane, Conshohocken, PA 19428, by contacting April Flipse at (610) 832-5937 or Paul Rettinger at (610) 832-6300 during normal business hours. Persons may submit written comments to April Flipse at the noted address. The Department will provide a response to all significant written comments received during the public comment period, and the proposed Consent Decrees authorize the Department to withhold or withdraw its consent in the event that the Department determines, based on comments received during the public comment period, that the Consent Order and Agreement is inappropriate, improper or not in the public interest.

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 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. A cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
