LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 3
The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P.S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907).
Section 250.8 of 25 Pa. Code and administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its 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 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 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by 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 under 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Amend Permit number E02-1665 (which authorized the placement and maintenance of fill in approximately 2.39 acres of wetlands for the purpose of reconfiguring and expanding the existing Imperial Landfill). This amendment is for the addition of a leachate pretreatment facility and will have the following additional impacts:
1. Place and maintain fill in one (1) PSS and two (2) PEM wetlands, which will cumulatively affect 0.113 acre of wetland,
2. Construct and maintain a water utility line stream crossing of an Unnamed Tributary (UNT) to South Fork Montour Run (aka Tributary 36726 to South Fork Montour Run) (TSF), which will impact 18 linear feet of watercourse,
3. Construct and maintain a sanitary sewer line crossing of the aforementioned UNT to South Fork Montour Run (TSF), which will impact 0.01 acre of floodway,
4. Construct and maintain an outlet structure and access road in the floodway of the aforementioned UNT to South Fork Montour Run (TSF), which will impact 0.01 acre of floodway,
5. Construct and maintain a water utility line stream crossing of an ephemeral UNT to South Fork Montour Run (aka Stream-003) (TSF), which will impact 7 linear feet of watercourse, and
6. To remove the existing two (2) 24-inch diameter Culverts and to construct and maintain a 48-inch diameter culvert in a UNT to South Fork Montour Run.

In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.96—129.100, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a determination for an alternate Reasonably Available Control Technology II (RACT II) plan and seeks approval of the amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the military helicopter fabrication and repair facility owned and operated by The Boeing Company in Ridley Township, Delaware County.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the amended RACT II approval for the facility, which are intended to satisfy the requirements for the 1997 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) and the 2008 NAAQS for ozone.
The proposed amendments to the RACT II determination, have been incorporated into this revised operating permit 23-00009 for the facility. After the public participation requirements of 40 CFR 51.102 are met, including that public hearings to be held on the dates and at the location advertised below, the relevant RACT II requirements will be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania's State Implementation Plan and will remain in effect until replaced pursuant to 40 CFR 51 and approval by the EPA. Requirements that are not part of the RACT II determination will be excluded and/or redacted from the SIP submittal.
The following is a summary of the proposed amendments to the RACT II determination for this operation that will be submitted to the EPA as a SIP revision:
