HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988

Notice of Proposed Interim Response

Classic Auto Restoration Services of Pittsburgh, Inc. Site

Union Township, Washington County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), is proposing an interim response at the Classic Auto Restoration Services, Inc. Site (Site) located at 28 Davidson Avenue in Elrama, Union Township, Washington County, PA.

   The Site consists of a dilapidated building situated on 13 lots in the Village of Elrama. The front of the building faces Davidson Street and the back of the building faces an alley. The property once operated as a specialty electroplating facility, primarily for car parts. Classic Auto Restoration Services of Pittsburgh, Inc., the most recent company to operate the facility, ceased operation in November 2004, and abandoned the building along with the chemicals used in the electroplating process. The chemicals include various corrosives, oxidizers, poisons such as cyanide and metals (nickel, chromium, lead, cadmium, copper, and the like) and listed hazardous wastes. Chemicals and wastes were stored in containers in deteriorating condition, many containers were open and many were in poor condition and/or leaking. From October 2005, through April 2006, the Department conducted a prompt interim response to characterize, remove and dispose of the chemicals and hazardous wastes. This response addressed the immediate threats to human health and the environment.

   During the prompt interim response, the Department conducted an investigation at the Site which found soil contamination under the building floor and foundation, as well as contamination inside the building, on the walls and on the floors. This contamination could not be addressed within the scope of the prompt interim response.

   The present conditions at the Site pose a threat to human health from potential direct contact, ingestion, and/or inhalation to hazardous substances that remain inside the building. The Site is located in a residential area and is close to occupied homes. The building doors are padlocked; however, trespassers continue to break in. The Site also poses a threat to the environment, soil is contaminated under the building and there is the potential for groundwater contamination. The objective and scope of the interim response is to remove and properly dispose of soil and material contaminated with hazardous substances.

   The Department considered four alternatives for this Site: (1) no action; (2) demolition of the building, excavation of contaminated soil and disposal of contaminated soil and material; (3) installation of a fence around the property; and (4) demolition of the building and installation of a fence around the property.

   The Department is proposing Alternative 2 as its interim response. This alternative was chosen because it complies with the applicable, relevant, and appropriate requirements to the greatest extent, is the option most protective of human health and the environment, and is the most cost-effective alternative.

   This notice is being provided under section 506(b) of HSCA. The administrative record, which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this Interim Response, is available for public review and comment. The administrative record is located at the Department's Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, and is available for review Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call (412) 442-4000 for an appointment.

   The administrative record will be open for comment from May 9, 2009, until August 7, 2009. Persons may submit written comments into the record, during this time only, by sending them to Annette Paluh, Project Manager, Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222 or by delivering them to the office in person.

   In addition, persons may present oral comments for inclusion in the administrative record at a public hearing. A public hearing is scheduled for June 23, 2009, at 6 p.m. at the Elrama Volunteer Fire Hall, located at 17 Elrama Avenue, Elrama, PA 15038. Persons wishing to present comments should register with Katy Gresh before 12 p.m., June 23, 2009, at the Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, (412) 442-4203, kagresh@ state.pa.us.

   Persons with disability who wish to attend the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceedings should call Katy Gresh at (412) 442-4203 or through the Pennsylvania ATT Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

UNDER ACT 2, 1995

PREAMBLE 2


The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   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 is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. 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.

   For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.
