   Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports.

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, shall 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 refuse 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.

   Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, 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 the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O.

Notice of Joint Public Hearing for NPDES Stormwater from Construction Activities Permit Application No. PAI024507008 and Water Quality Management Permit Application No. 4507404

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will hold a joint public hearing to accept comments on NPDES Stormwater from Construction Activities Permit Application No. PAI024507008 and Water Quality Management Permit Application No. 4507404.

   The Water Quality Management Permit Application is for the construction and operation of 4.5 miles of sewer main, highway borings, manholes, laterals and appurtenances in the Swiftwater and Scotrun areas of Pocono Township. This portion of the Township's sewerage project is considered a ''dry sewer'' as the treatment system will not yet be constructed and no properties will be connected for service at this time. The schedule calls for construction of these sections in 2008, in advance of a proposed Department of Transportation road widening project. The NPDES Stormwater from Construction Activities Permit Application is for the discharge of stormwater associated with the construction of the ''dry sewer'' project. The hearing is in response to the applications submitted to the Department by the Pocono Township Board of Supervisors. Both applications are currently under review.

   The joint public hearing will be conducted on Wednesday, November 14, 2007, at 7 p.m. in the auditorium of Pocono Mountain School District's Swiftwater Intermediate School on Pocono Mountain Road.

   The Department requests that individuals wishing to testify at the hearing submit a written notice of intent to Mark Carmon, Community Relations Coordinator, Attn: Pocono Township Public Hearing, Department of Environmental Protection, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790. The Department will accept notices up to the day of the hearing.

   The written notice should include the person's name, address, telephone number and a brief statement as to the nature (oral or written) of their presentation. The Department requests that individuals limit their testimony to 10 minutes so that all individuals have the opportunity to testify. Written copies of oral testimony are requested. Relinquishing of time to others will not be allowed. Individuals attending the hearing will have the opportunity to testify if they so desire; however, individuals who preregister to testify will be given priority on the agenda. Persons unable to attend the hearing may submit written statement/comments to the Department on or before November 30, 2007.

   Persons with a disability who wish to testify and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation should contact Christine Domashinski, (570) 826-2511 or through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department can meet their needs.

   The Water Quality Management permit application is available for review at the Department's Northeast Regional Office in Wilkes-Barre. Contact the Records Management Section at (570) 826-2511 to schedule an appointment to review the application. The NPDES construction permit application is available for review at the Monroe County Conservation District, 8050 Running Valley Road, Stroudsburg, PA 18360-0917, (570) 629-3060.

   For further information, contact Mark Carmon, Northeast Regional Office, (570) 826-2511.

BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY

Approval of Request for Variance

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (BMS) has approved Rosebud Mining Company's request for a variance from the requirements of section 290(d) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act at the Tracy Lynne Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Cathy Dunn by calling (724) 439-7469 or from the BMS web site at www.depweb.state.pa.us/deepminesafety/site/default.asp

   Summary of the Request: Rosebud Mining Company requests a variance to reduce the number of main entries in the 2nd Northwest Mains Section at the Tracy Lynne Mine.

   The basis for the Bureau's approval is summarized as follows:

   1.  Tracy Lynne has developed portions of the mine with less than five entries previously without any complications.

   2.  Longwall mines have successfully ventilated three entry systems for distances up to 12,000 feet. Longwall gate-road development generally encounters methane liberations far in excess of those shown at the Tracy Lynne Mine.

   3.  According to a June 2007, air sample collected by MSHA, the Tracy Lynne Mine produces 70,217 CFM of CH4 per 24 hours.

   4.  The pitch adjustment to the main fan blades provided an increase of 13.5% to the quantity of air delivered to the intake.

   5.  Reducing the number of main entries from five to four reduces the amount of exposed roof.

   6.  A CO monitoring system will enhance escapability through the variance area by providing early warning.

   Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in the enclosed plan and the following conditions.

   1.  All unused crosscuts through the variance area must have two cribs placed on both entrances in line with the entry rib. Additional supplemental support will be installed throughout the area as required.

   2.  All roof falls that occur in the variance area must be completely cleaned and permanently supported before resumption of mining.

   3.  A CO monitoring system is required. The CO sensors should be placed in the primary intake escapeway at the beginning of the variance area. The second sensor should be permanently positioned along the primary intake escapeway at the end of the variance area.

   4.  The CO system shall provide visual and audible alarms. The audible alarms shall be transmitted over the mine communication system.
