Notice of Proposed Interim Response
Lawn Avenue Site
West Rockhill Township and Sellersville Borough, Bucks County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, Act of October 18, 1988, P. L. 756, No. 108, 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305 (''HSCA''), is proposing a response action at the Lawn Avenue Site (Site) in West Rockhill Township and Sellersville Borough, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
The Department, under the authority of HSCA, has been conducting an environmental investigation of the Site. This investigation includes the sampling of private drinking water supply wells located along portions of Farmers Lane and Lawn Avenue. To date, sampling has revealed that ten homes have levels of Tetrachloroethene and/or Trichloroethene that exceed their respective Safe Drinking Water Maximum Contaminant Levels.
To address the release and threat of release of hazardous substances at the Site, and corresponding threats to human health and the environment, the Department proposes to implement a response action at the Site under Sections 501(a) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.501(a). The Department hereby proposes the installation of a waterline, including water mains and lateral connections to the public water supply. This proposed alternative complies with Applicable, Relevant and Appropriate Requirements (ARARs) and is feasible and cost-effective. Other possible alternatives include no action or the installation and continued monitoring and maintenance of whole-house carbon filtration units and/or supplying bottled water.
An Administrative Record, which contains more detailed information concerning this proposed response action, is available for public inspection. The Administrative Record may be examined from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm at the Department's office at 2 East Main Street, Norristown PA 19401. Those interested in examining the Administrative Record should contact Bonnie McClennen at (484) 250-5965 to arrange for an appointment. Additional copies of the Administrative Record are available for review at the West Rockhill Township Building and Sellersville Borough Hall.
Pursuant to Section 506(d) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.506(d), the Department shall conduct a public hearing on May 1, 2012 at 7:00 pm at the West Rockhill Elementary School Cafeteria located at 1000 Washington Avenue, Sellersville, PA 18960. Anyone who would like to present formal oral comments regarding this proposed response may do so by registering with the Department before the meeting. Individuals may register by calling the Department's Community Relations Coordinator, Lynda Rebarchak, at (484) 250-5820.
Any person with a disability who wishes to attend the public hearing and will require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings should contact Lynda Rebarchak at the telephone number listed above or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs. The public may also submit written comments regarding the Department's proposed Interim Response action during the period of public comment. In accordance with Section 506(c) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.506(c), the Department has established a period for public comment that is now open until close of business Monday June 18, 2012. Written comments should be addressed to Bonnie McClennen, Project Officer, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.
