STATBHBHT OF BASIS AND PURPOSE

This Record of Decision (ROD) presents the selected remedial
actions for twenty-two (22) properties included in the Austin
Avenue Radiation Site, Delaware County, Pennsylvania (Site). The
remedial actions were developed in accordance with the. statutory
requirements of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensa-
tion, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. ~~
9601 et. sea.. and are consistent with the National Oil and Hazard-
ous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), 40 C.F.R. Part
300. These remedy selection decisions are based on an Administra-
tive Record compiled for this site (~ index to this Administrative
Record is attached). The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania concurs with
these remedial actions. A copy of the concurrence letter is
attached. . .
ASSESSMEHT OP THE SITE
Actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances from
properties covered by this ROD,. if not addressed by implementing
the response actions selected in this ROD, may present an imminent
and substantial endangerment to public health, welfare, or the
environment.
DESCRIPl':ION OP HE.SELECTED REMEDY
The selected remedial actions identified in this ROD will
mitigate and/or pr~vent human exposure to radiation-contaminated
buildings and soil.. These actions will affect twenty-two (22)
properties, twenty-one of which are contaminated with radioactive
hazardous substances. :
~
The selected remedial actions include the fOllowing maj or
components: .
1.
The removal of contaminated components from the
residential structure located at 346 OWen Avenue and the
repair of the structure.

structures on those properties, or relocation of the
residents to an offsite location. The property owners
will select repair (where practicable), structure
replacement, or offsi te relocation after this ROD is
issued. The United states will acquire tit~e to each
property:where offsite relocation has been selected by
the residents. At the end of the remedial action, title
to each such property will be transferred to the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

The dismantlement of an addition at the rear of 42 South
Union Avenue and the repair of that building and the
adjacent structure at 44 ~outh Union Avenue, as neces-
sa;y.

The history of the Austin Avenue Radiation site is intertwined
with that of a former Superfund site, the Lansdowne Radiation Site,
. which was a twin house located at 105-107 East Stratford Avenue in
Lansdowne, Pennsylvania. . A now deceased professor, Dr. Dicran
Hadjy Kabakjian, owned the house at 105 East Stratford Avenue, and
also worked for cummings while the company conducted its radium
refining operation at the warehouse.

While a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr.
Kabakjian developed a crystallization process for the refining of
radium, and then sold the process to cummings. He worked as a
consultant to cummings until 1924, when he set up his own radium
processing business in the basement of his home at 105 East
Stratford Avenue. The maj or product of his home business was
radium-filled implant needles which were sold to medical
professionals for the treatment of cancer.
The radium refining process developed by Dr. Kabakjian and
practiced at cummings' warehouse used a yellowish, shale-like
material known as carnotite ore. This ore was mined from deposits
in Utah and Colorado. One ton of carnotite ore could produce
approximately one-tenth of a grain of radium. During cummings'
years of operation at the Union Avenue war~ouse, its radium output
is estimated to have been three grams per year. The radium
extraction process generated waste tailings. These tailings
contained two residual radionuclides, radium 226 and thorium 230.
The tailings, which were sand-like waste materials, were either
given or sold to local building contractors and others. During the
seven years that cummings operated at the warehouse, those persons
used the tailings in mortar, stucco, plaster, and concrete which
were used to build or renovate houses in the area. The ore
processing also produced waste liquids containing uranium 238. .
These/liquids were apparently dumped into cesspool systems in the
immediate vicinity of the cummings facility.

-------

In 1963, the Pennsylvania Department of Health inspected the
105 East Stratford Avenue house and found extremely high levels of
radiation. In 1964, the U.S. Public Health Service and the
Pennsylvania Department of Health, aided by the u.S. Air Force,
attempted to decontaminate the nouse. In 1984, .EPA and
Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources (PADER) sampling
and monitoring of the structure showed high residual radiation
contamination levels. .An extensive evaluation of the house was
conducted by the u.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National
Laboratory. In 1986, EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) which
called for the dismantlement and offsite disposal of the house and
contaminated soils. It was at this time that the location of other
tailings from the operation became an issue as the government
suspected ~at the tailings would contain residual radiation
contamination. No records relating to the ultimate disposition of
those tailings were available.

In May 1991, PADER visited the South Union Avenue/Austin
Avenue location to moni tor for radon because radiation
. contamination had previously been discovered in ~he back yard of
133 Austin Avenue, the property adjacent to the warehouse. During
this visit, radiation survey instruments indicated the presence of
significant levels of radioactive contamination within the house at
that location. PADER obtained soil and wipe samples for further
analysis.
On June 7, 1991, PADER notified EPA of its findings and
requested assistance. A joint PADER-EPA site assessment confirmed
the presence of radiological contamination at 133 Austin Avenue at
levels that warranted immediate action. Based on the data provided
by the PADER analyses and the results of the joint survey, the U.S.
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)
recommended the relocation of the residents of the house at 133
Austin Avenue and the dismantlement of the warehouse.
On June 19, 1991, a team of radiation specialists from the EPA
National Air and Radiation Environmental Laboratory (NAREL) in
Montgomery, Alabama, arrived to conduct an assessment. The
warehouse and the adjacent residential dwelling (133 Austin Avenue)
were found to be heavily contaminated wi~ radioactive materials.
In November and December of 1991, EPA used a special radiation-
detection van to conduct a 12.5 square mile search in Delaware
County and a small portion of the adjacent City of Philadelphia.
EPA also conducted radiological surveys of the properties which
were suspected to be contaminated. The EPA testing has shown that
approximately 40 properties within a two-mile radius of the site of
the former CUmmings radium processing facility have become
contaminated with radium 226 and thorium 230.
~PA has conducted CERCLA Removal Actions at a number of the
contaminated properties. Removal Actions were selected for those
properties that posed an immediate endangerment and/or which could

-------
4
be addressed using Removal Action authorities within the
constraints of available funding. These Removal Actions have
included the temporary relocation of residents of several of the
properties; complete dismantlement of the warehouse at South Union
and Austin Avenues; dismantlement of the structure at 133 Austin
Avenue; soil removals at a number of the properties; and removals
of plaster, stucco, and concrete at selected properties.
Additional Removal Acti~ns are ongoing.

On July 1, 1993, EPA issued a Proposed Remedial Action Plan
describing five alternatives considered as possible remedial
actions for twenty-one of the parcels subject to this Record of
Decision. The July 1, 1993 Plan also designated EPA's preferred
al ternati ve .for each of the proPerties. EPA requested comments on
the 'Plan and. opened a public comment period. In response to that
Plan, EPA received numerous letters from citizens and public
officials requesting that EPAreconsider its preferred alternatives
for several of the parcels. In addition, EPA gathered additional
information useful in the evaluation of remedial alternatives for
the properties. Following consideration of the .responses to the
first Proposed Remedial Action Plan, and of the above-described
information, EPA issued, on March 2, 1994, a Revised Proposed
Remedial Action Plan for the twenty-two parcels which are subject
to this Record of Decision and opened a public comment period on
the new plan. Notice of a minor modification to the Revised
Proposed Remedial Action Plan was published in local newspapers on
March 30, 1994. A brief discussion of the differences between the
July 1, 1993 Proposed Remedial Action Plan and the March 2, 1994
Revised Proposed Remedial Action Plan is found in section 13 of
this ROD.
3.
COJIMUJIZTY PARTICIPATIOH
The original Proposed Remedial Action Plan, together with
documents supporting that plan (the administrative record file),
were placed by EPA in a public information repository located near
the Si te at the Lansdowne Borough Public Library, Lansdowne,
Pennsylvania and have been available for public review beginning on
July 1, 1993. In addition, Site-rela\:ed documents have been
maintained at the Reqion III office. Notice of the availability of
these documents and a brief description of EPA's Proposed Remedial
Action Plan was published in the PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER on July 1,
1994, and in the NEWS OF DELAWARE COUNTY and the DELAWARE COUNTY
DAILY TIMES on June 30, 1993. In both the Proposed Remedial Action
Plan and the newspaper notifications, the public was advised of the
opportunity for a public meeting. A public comment period was held
from July 1, 1993 to Auqust 31, 1993. A public meeting was held on
July. 19, 1993 at the Yeadon Borough Hall, Yeadon, Delaware county,
penn~ylvania~ Approximately 300 citizens attended that meeting.

-------
5
EPA received more than 750 letters in response to the original
Proposed Remedial Action Plan expressing dissatisfaction with that
Plan. Following careful consideration of these letters and of
additional information relating to the remedial alternatives
described in the July 1993 plan, EPA issued a Revised Proposed
Remedial Action Plan on March 2, 1994. Notification of the
availability of the Revised Plan and the updated administrative
record file was published in the three newspapers noted above. A
public meeting was held on March 15, 1994 at the Beverly Hills
Middle School, Upper Darby, Pennsylvania. On March 30, 1994, EPA
published notice of a minor modification to the Revised Plan
affecting four of the parcels. The notice made clear that comments
submitted during the public comment period could address this
modification., A response to the comments received during the March
2, 1994 through April 30, 1994 public comment period is included in
t;he Responsiveness Summary which is part of this Record of
Decision. Transcripts of both of the public meetings are included
in the Administrative Record for the Site. A brief discussion of
the differences between the July 1, 1993 Proposed Remedial Action
Plan and . the March 2, 1994 Revised Proposed Remedial Action Plan is
found in section 13 of this ROD.
The community participation procedures outlined above were
conducted in compliance with sections 113(k) and 117 of CERCLA, 42
U.S.C. S 9613(k) and 9617. EPA has had extensive contact with
community members from the commencement of response actions at the
Site through the present and has strived to be responsive to all
community concerns.

SCOPE UD ROLE 01' THB RBSPOIISB AC'l'IOIi
This Record of Decision addresses the remedial actions
selected for twenty-two properties within the site that are
presently on the NPL. The properties are in the. municipalities of
Lansdowne Borough, East Lansdowne Borough, Upper Darby Township,
Aldan Borough, and Darby Borough in Delaware County, Pennsylvania
and are identified in Section 1 of this Record of Decision. The
remedial actions selected for these parcels are necessary in order
to respond to environmental and public he~lth threats presented by
contamination at the properties (see Section 5). Eighteen (18)
other properties have been, or are being, cleaned up under EPA's
removal authorities.
EPA is considering appropriate measures to further
characterize .ground water contaminated with uranium recently
discovered (June 1994) in the vicinity of the former cummings
facili ty. EPA does not expect that this ground water contamination
affeqts any of the residential properties listed in this Record of .
Decision. .Remedial actions, if a~y, ~eemed appropriate by EPA to
address th1s ground water contam1nat1on would be announced in a
subsequent Record of Decision.

SUKMARY OF SITB RISKS
with the exception of the lot at 133 Austin Avenue, all of the
properties listed previously are contaminated with radium 226 and
thorium 230 (remedial action at 133 Austin Avenue is limited to
offsite relocation of the business formerly occupying the structure
dismantled on that parcel). In addition, the property at South
Union Avenue and Austin Avenue (the site of the former cummings
facility) is contaminated with uranium 238. These substances are
radioactive metallic elements and emit both alpha and gamma
radiation. Radium 226 has a half-life of 1,600 years; thorium 230
has a half-life of 80,000 years and uranium 238 has a half-life of
4,500,000,000 years (this means that it will take this long for
one-half of the mass of these contaminants to decay).

Gamma radiation is an external and internal radiation hazard.
It is composed of high energy photons that penetrate through the
skin and, often, through the human body, much like x-rays. Alpha
radiation, comprised of large particles co.posed of two protons and
two neutrons, is the same as the nucleus of a helium atom. These
large particles are associated with a relatively large amount of
energy, but this energy is readily dissipated when it passes
through only a few centimeters of air. It may also be absorbed by
a small amount of matter as thin as a piece of paper or the dead
cell layer on the outer surface of human skin. For this reason,
alpha radiation is an internal hazard to humans and is considered
to be particularly dangerous to the lungs and bones. Both alpha
and g~mma radiation are considered to be carcinogenic to humans.
The radioactive decay of radium 226 results in the production
of radon 222. Radon 222 is a colorless and odorless gas which has

                                11

a  half-life of  3.8  days.   The  radioactive  decay of  radon 222
results  in  the  occurrence  of  several  subsequent  radioactive
elements - the so-called "radon daughters."  These radon daughters
are  also  alpha and beta emitters and  include polonium 218, lead
214, bismuth 214, and polonium 214. .These radioactive elements are
not gases but remain  suspended in the air in atomic form.  In doing
so,  they  can become attached to  dust and  smoke  particles which
might  potentially be inhaled by people.  Upon inhalation, these
radioactive elements lodge  in the lung tissue, which has no dead
cell layer to protect itself from the alpha emissions.  These alpha
emissions are  believed  to be  a  potential cause of lung cancer to
persons exposed to radium contamination.

     The threat posed by the contamination at the properties is due
to the significant possibility that radiological contamination may
spread  into the  environment  in  an  uncontrolled fashion  in the
future.   The contaminants  present  within the  structures  and in
soils   outside  will  most   certainly   outlast  the  structures
themselves.   As indicated  above, radium 226 has  a half-life of
1,600  years and  thorium 230 has a half-life of  80,000  years.
Before  these  contaminants cease emitting harmful  radiation, the
soils,  mortar,  stucco, cement, plaster,  and  other contaminated
materials will very  likely be  moved off the properties through
renovation  or  demolition   or  through  other means  such  as
disintegration or fire.  Uncontrolled movement  of these materials
creates the  risk of further  exposure  by persons  and  animals to
radiological  contamination.   This  risk will  continue  until the
contaminated materials decay completely or until such materials are
removed and properly disposed.

     For example, dusts created  from repair  and renovation work on
contaminated   structures  could  be  ingested  and  inhaled  by
construction workers and by nearby  residents and visitors in the
surrounding neighborhood.   Such repair and  renovation work would
probably result in persons being exposed to greater than the non-
occupational inhalation limit of one-tenth of a rem per year  (this
does not take into account any other whole body exposure from gamma
radiation that would result from  the presence of the radioactive
materials).   Contaminated materials removed  from  the structures
during renovation or demolition and contaminated  soils  could be
used as fill in other locations resulting in the contamination of
those  areas  and  of  persons  who  may  be  exposed  to  them.   The
materials could also  be  disposed of at demolition waste or sanitary
landfills  which  are not  suitable  for  disposal   of  radiation-
contaminated materials,  resulting in the contamination  of these
locations and of persons who may operate such disposal facilities.
A fire at a contaminated structure could result in the release of
radiation-contaminated  dusts  and the  disposal of  contaminated
materials in unsuitable locations.
     ' s
     Radium 226, thorium 230,  uranium 238, radon 222 and the radon
daughters are  all radionuclides.    Radionuclides  are  listed as

-------
12
hazardous substances in federal regulations promulgated at 40
C.F.R. S 302.4 and, therefore, are hazardous substances for the
purposes of the Superfund law. .

Because of the significant possibility that these harmful
contaminants may be moved in an uncontrolled fashion, and thereby
create new risks to human health as a result of such movement well
before the radioactive materials have completely decayed, EPA
believes that actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances
from this Site, if not addressed by proper response actions,
present a current or potential threat to public health, welfare or
the environment.

RZSK ASSBSSKBRT COKCLUSZOH
Actual or threatened releases of radioactive hazardous
substances at the Site, if not addressed by implementing the
response actions selected in this Record of Decision, may present
. an imminent and substantial endangerment to public health, welfare,
or the environment, based on the risks described in section 6.

SUJOIARY 01' AL'1'BRHA'1'ZVBS
This section identifies remedial alternatives identified in
the Revised Proposed Remedial Action Plan and considered for
implementation at each of the twenty-two radiation-contaminated
properties subject to this Record of Decision. With the exception
of the "No Action" alternative, and excluding the remedial action
to be implemented at 133 Austin Avenue, each remedial action
alternative involves, at a minimum, removal, transportation, and
disposal of all radiologically-contaminated building materials and
soils from the property and relocation of persons residing on the
property for at least the duration of the work to be performed at
that location.
In summary, the No Action alternative, which EPA is required
to consider under the NCP, would involve no further remedial action
for that property. The "removal and repai.r" alternative (Alterna-
tive 2) would involve removal of all radiologically-contaminated
material from the property, and measures to restore structures for
continued occupancy. Alternative 3 would permit the parcel owner
to choose either (a) demolition of the radiologically-contaminated
structure and replacement of the structure on the existing lot, (b)
demolition of the radiologically-contaminated structure and
relocation to another parcel, or (c) removal of all radiologically-
contaminated material from the property, and measures to restore
structures for continued occupancy (Alternative 2).

The remedial action al ternati ves are discussed in greater
detail in this section.

This alternative would involve no further remedial action and
would not require the expenditure of additional funds for remedial
action at the specific property. ~o applicable or relevant and
appropriate requirements (ARARs) are associated with this
alternative.
2.
COll'1'AJaDT:IOH aaoVAL un BU:ILD:ING RSPA:IR
This alternative includes temporary relocation of residents
where required, removal of radiation-contaminated soils and
structural c~mponents of buildings, off site disposal of wastes,
repair of the affected structure, and rehabitation by the
residents.
All soils in residential and potentially residential settings
that have site-related radium 226 contamination in excess of 5
"pico-curies per gram (pCi/g) will also be removed. Properties that
EPA determines are unlikely to become residential will have soils
removed to the 5 pCi/g level if those soils have radium 226
contamination exceeding 5 pCi/g (above background) in the top 15
centimeters and/or 15 pCi/g (above background) in soils below 15
centimeters, averaged over 100 square meters. Institutional
controls to restrict the future construction of residential
dwellings and/or the depth of building footings and foundations
will be implemented if EPA is unable to reduce contamination to the
5 pCi/g level at these non-residential properties.

The costs of this alternative would be different for each of
the properties.
Major federal ARARs for this alternative include 40 C.F.R.
Part 192, Subpart B (standards for Cleanup of Land "and Buildings
Contaminated with Residual Materials from Inactive Uranium
processing Sites) (relevant and appropriate); 10 C.F.R. Part 20,
Subpart D (Radiation Dose Limits for Individual Members of the

For the purposes of this alternative, each propar~y owner
would choose to either have the contaminated structure replaced at
the same location (Op~ioD A); have his/her family relocated to an
offsite parcel containing an existing comparable replacement
structure (Op~ion B); or have the building repaired, where
practicable, as noted above in Alternative 2 (Option C). This
choice would be made by the property owner after issuance of this
Record of Decision, except where EPA has determined that all but
one of the options is impracticable or infeasible (see EPA' s
Selected. Alternatives, below).

All soils in residential and potentially residential settings
that have site-related radium 226 contamination in excess of 5
pico-curies per gram (pCi/g) will also be removed. Properties that
EPA determines are unlikely to become residential will have soils
removed to the 5 pci/g level if those soils have radium 226
contamination exceeding 5 pCi/g (above background) in the top 15
centimeters and/or 15 pCi/g (above background) in soils below 15
centimeters, averaged over 100 square meters. Insti tutional
controls to restrict the future construction of residential
dwellings and/or the depth of building footings and foundations
will be implemented if EPA is unable to reduce contamination to the
5 pCi/q level at these non-residential properties.
Under Option A and Option B of this alternative, contaminated
structures would be completely dismantled and disposed of offsite.
Radiologically-contaminated soil would also be removed and disposed
of offsite.
Under Option A, the Federal Governmellt will fund construction
of a building to replace the structure dismantled by EPA. The new
building will be constructed on the lot previously occupied by the
razed building after all debris and contaminated soils have been
removed from the parcel. The new building will have floor space
approximately equivalent to the floor space of the building that
was dismantled, and will be constructed on the same lot in
accordance with current building codes. It is anticipated that the
newly constructed buildings will retain the same architectural
chara}=ter and "curb appeal" as the existing structures, but will be .
constructed .using modern materials and modern methodologies.
Certain interior and exterior changes might be necessary in order
to meet existing codes, and to accommodate modern construction

-------
15
materials and methods. For example, current stone foundation walls
will be replaced with alternate masonry construction.

The property owners selecting Option A will be presented with,
by the Federal Government, buildinq plans/designs/features which
are as similiar to the current structures as practicable. Each
property owner will participate in the selection of a building
design, materials, and. features for his/her respective property.
Each property owner's selections of designs, materials, and
amenities will be formalized in writing. The Government will then
fund construction of that building. Changes to the design,
materials and features selected by the owner will not be permitted
except to the extent that the owner agrees to pay all costs
associated with such changes and such changes will not
subs~antially delay construction of the building. . Following
completion of the structure, the owner will be relocated back to
the original parcel. The schedule for construction of replacement
buildings cannot be estimated at this time but will depend upon,
among other things, the number of property owners that select
Option Ai the availability of qualified building contractors at the
time the response action .is performed, and the length of time
required to completely dismantle the original structures and clean
the lots. The Federal Government will .cease payment for any
temporary residence at the time the Federal Government determines
that the replacement structure has been completed in accordance
with the plans selected by the owner. The cost of Option A is
different for each property.
Under Option B, EPA will dismantle the contaminated building,
dispose of building and soil wastes offsite, and backfill soil
excavations. No building replacement will take place at the
affected parcel. The Government will acquire the property from the
owner and, if desired by the owner, provide relocation benefits to
which they may be entitled. These benefits include reimbursement
of moving expenses and provision of purchase supplements to enable
the owner to relocate to a comparable replacement property.

With respect to those structures occupied by the owners, a
replacement property available under Option B will be a "comparable
replacement dwelling" within the meaning.of 49 C.F.R. S 24.2(d),
which means that the dwelling will be (1) decent, safe, and
sanitary; (2) functionally equivalent to the razed structure; (3)
adequate in size to accommodate the occupants of the razed
structure i ( 4) in an area not subj ect to unreasonable adverse
environmental conditions; (5) in a location not less desirable than
the location of the razed structure with respect to public
utili ties and commercial and public facilities, and reasonably
accessible to the owner's place of employment i (6) on a si te
typical in size for residential development; (7) on the market and.
avail~ble to the former occupants at the time the relocation must
be performed; and (8) within th~ financial means of the relocated
persons. The owners of propert1es not used as a residence for the

-------
16
owners will be provided wi th a comparable replacement property
which meets the eiqht criteria described above. Offsite
relocations under Op~ion B will be performed usinq procedures and
practices currently used in administerinq the Uniform Relocation
Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (42 U.S.C.
Chapter 61) and its implementinq requlations (49 C.F.R. Part 24) to
the maximum extent practicable. Under those procedures, ti tIe to
the oriqinal parcel will be acquired by the United states in order
to perform the relocatfon. Pursuant to section 104(j) of CERCLA,
42 U.S.C. S 9604(j), the Commonwealth of pennsysvania must aqree to
accept transfer of the property followinq completion of the
remedial action. The cost of implementinq this option would vary
accordinq to the individual properties involved.

At those parcels where owners select Op~ion C,. EPA will
implement all actions described in Alternative 2, above. The costs
of this alternative would be different for each of the properties.
ARARs for Alternative 3 are the su;, as for Alternative 2.

Alternative 1 (No Action) provides no protection. The
remaining two alternatives provide adequate protection of public
health, welfare and the environment. In Alternatives 2 and 3, all
radiation-contaminated structural componeQts of the buildings will
be removed offsite to a permitted radiation waste disposal
facility. All soils in residential and potentially residential
settings that have site-related radium 226 contamination in excess
of 5 pico-curies per qram (pCi/g) will also be removed.

The cleanup of soils to 5 pCi/g will result in radon 222
concentrations, in future homes built on the affected properties,
which are no qreater than the radon 222 concentrations that would
have resulted if the site-related radium 226 contamination had not
occurred.

-------
18
Properties that are unlikely to become residential will have
soils removed to the 5 pCi/g level as noted above if those soils
have radium 226 contamination exceeding 5 pCi/g (above backqround)
in the top 15 centimeters and/or 15 pCi/g (above backqround) in
soils below 15 centimeters, averaged over 100 square meters.
Properties in this category include streets, parks, and- railroad
rights-of-way.

Alternatives 2 and 3 will render the residential properties
available for unlimited access and unrestricted use. Complete
cleanup of the contamination at the former cummings facility and
the adjacent streets and railroad right-of-way.to the 5 pCi/g level
prescribed for residential properties might prove to be
impracticabl~. Such properties where cleanup to the residential
level is impracticable will require institutional controls to
restrict the future construction of residential dwellings and/or
the depth of building footings and foundations.

The No Action alternative would have no effect on the existing

elimination of the site-related radiation contamination where such
contamination currently exists. Under Alternatives 2 and 3, the
contaminated wastes will be removed offsite to a permitted
radiation waste disposal facility; the properties which are
currently residential will be available for unlimited access and
unrestricted use. The former CUmmings facility property and
streets, parks, and railroad rights-of-way that have radium 226
contamination exceeding 5 pci/g (above backqround) in the top 15
centimeters and/or 15 pCi/g (above backqround) in soils below 15
centimeters, averaged over 100 square meters, may require
insti tutional controls to restrict the future construction of
residential dwellings and/or the depth of building footings and

level.

8BORT-TBRM BPFBCTrvBHBS8
The No Action alternative would have no short-term
effectiveness. Under Alternatives 2 and 3, the resident owners and
tenants of occupied structures will be relocated during
implementation of the remedial action. The remedial activities
will be conducted so as to prevent radiation exposure to the local
residents and to site workers.
XMPLBKBHTABILITY
The No Action alternative requires no further remedial action
and implementation is therefore not relevant. The remaining two
alternatives are implementable to varying deqrees depending on
structural design and inteqrity and the deqree to which each
affected structure is contaminated. .
Alternative 2 (and Alternative 3,. Option C), building
decontamination and repair, is the least disruptive to the lives of
the affected owners as it will leave the existing residence in
place. However, this alternative is practicable only for 346 OWen
Avenue, 211 Penn Boulevard, 6 and 10 East Plumstead Avenue, and 151
Lexinqton Avenue as these structures are less contaminated relative
to the other affected structures and/or are more readily repairable
given the extent and location of such contamination. At these
locations, Alternative 2 (and Alternative 3, Option C) might
require temporary relocation of residents for up to one year.

Alternative 3, Option A, demolition and rebuilding of the
structures, is implementable for most of the existing structures,
but with certain changes in design. Design change~ would be
necessary because of the unavailability of certain construction
materials and the requirements of current construction codes. The
houses at 500 Harper Avenue and 3723 Huey Avenue, for example, are
stone structures from the basements to the rooflines; this type of
construction is essentially unavailable !oday. In addition, the
small size of certain lots (~, 133 Austin Avenue) will preclude
the construction of replacement structures having equivalent floor
space while complying with current building codes. Further,
Alternative 3, option A, is less implementable than option B
(permanent offsite relocation) and Option C (contamination removal
and building repair) to the extent that Option A would require a
significantly qreater de~ee of management oversight for a longer
period than would be requ~red for the other options and because of .
the poten~ial complicatio~s associ~ted with housing construction.
Note opt~ons A and C w~ll requ~re two relocation events per
structure (relocation off-site during contamination removal and

-------
20
buildinq repair or construction and relocation back to the finished
structure) for those resident owners who have not been relocated
offsite. Option B would, in some cases, entail only one relocation
event (relocation to the Permanent replacement dwellinq).
Relocation to the temporary residence while the affected. structure
is demolished and rebuilt may be necessary for one year or lonqer.

Alternative 3, Option B (permanent off-site relocation) is
readily implementable for all structures, except 42 South Union
Avenue (the structure to be dismantled is a small addition to a
delicatessen for which a comparable structure is not likely to be
available offsite). Unlike Option A (demolition and rebuildinq of
the structures), Option B may in some cases invol ve only one
relocation e.vent where an offsite structure is found prior to
remediation at the affected structure. .
COST
, .
I
The. No Action alternative would involve no .further costs for
remedial action. Alternative 2 (and Alternative 3, Option C),
buildinq repair, was considered to be cost-effective only for 6 and
10 East Plumstead Avenue, 211 Penn Boulevard, 151 Lexinqton Avenue,
and 346 OWen Avenue. Alternative 3, Option A, was considered for
all of the properties except for 133 Austin Avenue (1;he lot at that
location is too narrow to allow rebuildinq under current
ordinances) and the former CUmminqs warehouse buildinq (the
warehouse was structurally deficient for reasons unrelated to the
contamination, and was in danqer of collapse). Option B was
considered for all of the properties except 42 S. Union (an offsite
structure would be an impracticable replacement of the delicatessen
addition at 42 S. Union Avenue) and the former CUmminqs facility
location (see above). Cost estimates to implement the various
al ternati ves are expressed as present values and are shown in Table
1. In that table, EPA' s selected remedies are indicated wi th
asterisks (*). All costs are estimates that may vary accordinq to
the accuracy of current contamination reports, lenCJths of time
required to implement the remedial actions at the individual
properties, actual bids received from remedial contractors and
other factors. ~
The cost estimates listed include the costs of temporary
relocation of residents, where applicable, for Alternatives 2 and
3. The temporary relocation costs are estimated at $2000 per month
for a period of one year. Therefore, the cost estimates for
Alternatives 2 and 3 include an estimated $24,000 temporary
relocation cost per household for owner-occupied dwellinqs. Since
617/619 and 621/623 Pine street are twin houses, each represents
two households. In these instances, the cost estimates for.
Alternative 3, options A and B (repair is not practicable), include
an estimated $48,000 temporary relocation cost to accommodate the
two households in each twin house.

-------
21
. No cost estimates are qiven for any of the properties under
Alternative 2 (or Alternative 3, Option C), except for 6 and 10
East Plumstead Avenue, 211 Penn Boulevard, 151 Lexinqton Avenue,
and 346 OWen Avenue, because buildinq repairs are not feasible.

The cost estimate shown under Alternative 3, Option A, for 42
South Union Avenue is for the demolition, removal, and reconstruc-
tion of an unoccupied addition to a delicatessen. Repairs would be
made to the adjacent property, as required.

Most of the properties will require some removal of radiation-
contaminated soil. Soil amounts vary with location. Cost
estimates for soil remediation for the various properties are
included in the estimates shown in Table 1. .
Approximately 12,000 cubic yards of soil are contaminated at
the former cummings facility property at South Union and Austin
Avenues. This soil wiIl be removed and disposed at an estimated
cost of $1920 per cubic yard. Building replacement at this
property (exclusive of the former cummings warehouse which was
structurally deficient for reasons unrelated to the contamination
and was in danger of collapse) is estimated to cost approximately
$60,000, and soil cleanup is estimated to cost $23,040,000, for a
total of $23;100,000. .
The total estimated cost of EPA' s selected al ternati ves ranges
from approximately $36,642,250 (assuming that Option A is chosen by
all property owners to whom it is available) to approximately
. $38,581,200 (assuming that Option B is chosen by all property
owners to whom it is available).
STATB ACCEPTANCE .

The preferences for remediation which have been expressed by
the individual property owners verbally and by letter to EPA have
been carefully considered by EPA for the purposes of this Record of
Decision. Numerous citizens and public officials commented on the
Revised Proposed Remedial Action Plan.

THE SELECTBD RBKBDIBS
After careful evaluation of the remedial action alternatives,
the nine criteria set forth in the NCP, and the public comments,
EPA has selected remedial action alternatives for each of the
respective properties subject to this Record of Decision. The
remedial actions will be implemented in accordance with the
Performance Standards identified in Section 11 of this Record of
Decisjon. The remedial actions selected by EPA are as follows:

rebuilt nor replaced with an off-site structure since the building
was. structurally deficient for reasons unrelated to the.
contamination and was in danger of collapse prior to demolition by
EPA. Replacement of the "wood shop" building with an off-site
property would be impractical.

In summary, at this time the selected alternative for each
property, as described above, is believed to provide the best
balance of trade-offs among the alternatives with respect to the
criteria used to evaluate remedies. Based on the information
available at this time, therefore, EPA believes that the selected
alternatives.~will be protective, will attain ARARs, will be cost-
effective, and will utilize permanent solutions and alternative
treatment technologies or resource recovery technologies to the
maximum extent practicable. The selected alternatives do not
satisfy the preference for treatment as a principal element since
the radiation-contaminated materials will be landfilled at a
permitted offsite disposal facility because the various radioactive
elements cannot be destroyed.

EPA selected Al ternati ve 2, contamination removal and building
repair, for 346 OWen Avenue over Alternative 3 principally because
the contamination within the structure at this property is found at
levels and locations which permit complete remediation with minimal
impact to the building itself. EPA cannot justify complete demoli-
tion of the structure nor permanent off-site relocation under these
circumstances.
Factors which led EPA to select Alternative 3 (which offers,
in most instances, either Government-funded rebuilding of the
structures (OptioD A)i off-site relocation (OptiOD B)i or building
repair in accordance with Alternative 2 (OptioD C» for the
remainder of the properties include implementabil ty and public
acceptance. While structures on several properties may be repaired
without demolishing the entire structure, the work required to
remove contamination in many of these cases involves, among other
tasks, suspension of the structures and excavation of foundations.
For these properties, the difference in.implementablity between
complex repair work and complete demolition is insignificant. The
added management oversight required to rebuild the structures over
that required to provide off-site relocations was weighed against
the almost universal desire by property owners to have a choice in
deciding whether to remain on their property (once cleaned) and by
neighboring residents and community officials concerned about empty
lots in the affected neighborhoods (traditional relocations per-
"4 Rebuilding on-si te can occur only if the owner of each
residence in the duplex chooses this option. A single-family house
cannot be constructed on each lot under current building codes.

formed under the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act (42 U.S.C. Chapter 61) would result in
off-site relocations and clean, empty parcels which would be turned
over to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania). On balance, EPA
determined that both sets of concerns could be best addressed by
allowing each affected property owner to choose between the three
options offered in Alternative 3.
11.
PBRPORMUICB STAlJDUDS
Performance of the selected remedial actions will result in
removal and disposal of all Site-related radiation contamination
currently in ,the buildings at all of the properties subject to this
Record of Decision. All Site-related soil contamination at resi-
dential and potentially residential properties will be removed so
that no sample of soils remaining following the remedial action
will contain radium 226 concentrations exceeding 5.0 pCi/g. Site-
related contamination in soils on public-use properties that EPA
determines are unlikely to become residential (~, streets and
railroad rights-of-way) will be remediated if radium 226
concentrations in those soils exceed 5 pCi/g in the top 15
centimeters of soil and/or 15 pCi/g in subsoils, averaged over 100
square meters, per the requirements of 40 C.F.R. S 192.12(a). In
those public-use areas which are found to exceed the standards set
forth at 40 C.F.R. S 192(a), soil remediation will be accomplished
such that no sample of soil remaining following the remediation
will contain radium 226 concentrations exceeding the 5.0 pCi/g
standard set in this ROD for residential soils. Institutional
controls to restrict the future construction of residential
dwellings and/or the depth of building footings and foundations
will be implemented if EPA is unable to reduce contamination to the
5 pCi/g level at these non-residential properties.

The remediation of soil areas will include backfilling of
excavations, where appropriate, with clean soil and revegetation to
inhibit soil erosion. Public use areas such as streets, sidewalks,
and railroads will be restored to the uses that those properties
served prior to the remedial action.

STATUTORY DB'l'BIUO:HATXORS
This remedy satisfies the remedy selection requirements of
CERCLA and the NCP. The remedy is expected to be protective of
pUblic health and welfare and the environment, complies with ARARS,
is cost-effective, and utilizes permanent solutions and alternative
treatment technologies to the maximum extent practicable. Because
contaminated materials will be transported offsite for landfilling .
at p~rmitted facilities, the remedy does not meet the statutory
preference for treatment as a principal element of the remedy. The

All asbestos removal activities during the remedial actions
will comply with 40 C.F.R. 5 61. 145 (National Emission standards
for Asbestos; Standard for Demolition and Renovation) and 25 Pa.
Code Chapter 24 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants) (limited to adoption of standards set forth in 40
C.F.R. 5 61.145). :In addition, all excavation, dismantlement,
demolition, and construction activities will comply with 25 Pa.
Code 5S 123.1 and 123.3 (Prohibition of Certain Fugitive Emissions)
(Fugitive Particulate Matter); 25 pa Code 5 123.31 (emission of

visible air contaminants); 25 Pa. Code 5 219.21(a) (3) (Maximum
Permissible Levels Of Radiation from External Sources).

These standards are considered relevant and appropriate to the
remedial actions:
Contaminated soils on public use properties will be remediated
if radium 226 contamination in those soils equals or exceeds the
action levels set forth in 40 C.F.R. Part 192, SubpartB (Standards
for Cleanup of Land and Buildings contaminated with Residual

Once protectiveness has been established, cost effectiveness
is determined by comparing the costs of the alternatives being
considered with the overall effectiveness of each alternative to
determine whether an alternative represents a reasonable value for
the mpney to be spent. The remedies selected are judged to afford
overall effectiveness proportional to their costs such that the
remedies represent good val~es. When the relationship between the

The Pro~osed Remedial Action Plan and Revised Pro~osed
Remedial Action Plan.
On July 1, 1993, EPA issued a Proposed Remedial Action Plan
describing five alternatives considered as possible remedial
actions for twenty-one of the parcels subject to this Record of
Decision. The July 1, 1993 Plan also designated EPA's preferred
alternative for each of the properties. In the July 1, 19~3 Plan,
EPA expressed its preference to remove contamination and repair the
affected structure at only one of the properties, dismantle
contaminated structures and perform off-site relocations at sixteen
properties, and dismantle an additional four contaminated
structures without performing relocation or replacing ~e
structures. Numerous comments from citizens and local officials
requested that EPA consider remedial options that would permit
affected residents to return to newly constructed homes on their
original properties. Comments additionally sought relief for
owners of contaminated commercial structures, who would not receive
a replacement buildings under the URA. EPA also obtained
information relating to repair options not previously considered.
These options enabled the Agency to consider building repairs for
a larger number of affected structures.
.
Following consideration of the responses to the July 1, 1993
Proposed Remedial Action Plan, and of the above-described
information, EPA issued, on March 2, 1994, a Revised Proposed
Remedial Action Plan for the twenty-two parcels which are subject
to this Record of Decision. In the March 2, 1994 Revised Plan, EPA
expanded the number of structures for which repair is practicable
to five, offered most property owners the option of off-site
relocation under the URA or "on-site" relocation into newly
const;:-ucted homes to be built once the lots are cleaned, and.
provided for replacement of commercial structures that would be
dismantled.

RESPONSIVENESS SUMMARY

-------
RBSPOBS:rvBHBSS StJlllmRy
On July 1, 1993, EPA issued a Proposed Remedial Action Plan
describing five alternatives considered as possible remedial
actions for twenty-one of the parcels subject to this Record of
Decision. The July 1, 1993 Plan also designated EPA's preferred
alternative for each of the properties. EPA requested comments
on the Plan and opened a public comment period. In response to
that Plan, EPA received numerous letters from citizens and public
officials requesting that EPA reconsider its preferred
alternatives for several of the parcels. In addition, EPA
gathered additional information useful in the evaluation of
remedial alternatives for the properties. Following
consideration of the responses to the first Proposed Remedial
Action Plan, and of the above-described information, EPA issued,
on March 2, 1994, a Revised Proposed Remedial Action Plan
(Revised PRAP) for the twenty-two parcels which are subject to
this Record of Decision and opened a public comment period on the
new plan. Notice of a minor modification to the Revised PRAP was
published in local newspapers on March 30, 1994. A brief
,discussion of the differences between the July 1, 1993 Proposed
Remedial' Action Plan and the March 2, 1994 Revised PRAP is found
in section 13 of the ROD.
In compliance with sections 113(k) and 117 of CERCLA, the
RevisedPRAP and the Administrative Record file were placed for
public inspection at the Lansdowne Borough Library, Lansdowne,
Delaware County, Pennsylvania. An announcement of the
availability of these documents was placed in three locally-
available newspapers on March 2, 1994 and a Public Comment Period
was held from March 2, 1994 to April 30, 1994. Additionally, a
Public Meeting was held on March 15, 1994 at the Beverly Hills
Middle School, Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania, and individual
copies of the Revised PRAP were distributed to the individual
property owners whose properties were the subject of the Revised
PRAP, to the affected municipalities, and to the Pennsylvania
Department of Environmental Resources.

, EPA received ten letters responding to the Revised PRAP
during the public comment period, and one set of tax revenue
calculations was received by EPA from a citizen during the March
5, 1994 public meeting. The following i~ a summary of the
significant comments to the Revised PRAP and EPA's responses to
those comments:
Comment: A commentor suggested that the houses that are proposed
for remedial action and that are currently unoccupied should be
the first to be remediated.
Response: The chronology for remedial actions at the various
properties will be determined by several factors including the
actu~l endangerment to any residents still residing at the
properties, the remedial action option selected by the individual
property owners, the schedule designated by the selected remedial

-------
2
action contractor(s), and the manpower needed and available to
perform the remedial action. The sequence of work will be set
during pre-construction meetings among EPA, the u.s. Army Corps
of Engineers and the remedial action contractor.

Comment: A request was made that EPA rebuild houses on all lots
in the Borough of Lansdowne, even in those circumstances in which
the property owner(s) bave chosen off-site relocation.
Response: EPA will rebuild houses only in those instances in
which the owner(s) chose onsite relocation. EPA cannot expend
superfund monies for purposes unrelated to the implementation of
the remedial action. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will take
title to those properties on which replacement structures will
not be buil~ under this remedial action.
Comment: A request was made that EPA rebuild houses which will
closely duplicate the pre-existing structures on the
decontaminated lots.
Response: EPA intends to rebuild the houses, in those instances
where the owners choose onsite relocation, such that those houses
will have, to the extent practicable, the same architectural
design and "curb appeal" as the pre-existing structures.

Comment: A request was made that EPA conduct further testing for
radiation-contaminated houses in the Borough of Lansdowne.
Response: EPA believes that all site-related soil and structural
contamination within a two-mile radius of the former cummings
facility (Austin Avenue at South Union Avenue) has been
discovered by EPA. EPA believes that the assessment of the two-
mile radius area (comprising approximately 12.5 square miles) was
a very reasonable and practicable approach to identifying the
extent of contamination. EPA is confident that all substantial
soil and structural contamination from the former cummings
operation has been located. EPA has recently confirmed that
groundwater in the vicinity of the former cummings facility is
radiologically contaminated and intends to investigate this
contamination. Such investigation, and apy response actions
which may be performed following such investigation, are not part
of the remedial actions selected in this ROD.
'Comment: A request was made that EPA provide some form of
certification to the owners of the properties specifying that the
properties are free of radiation contamination following the
remedial action.
Response: The remedial action contractor will submit a report
for each of the properties. That report will indicate that the
remedial action requirements designated in the ROD have been
accomplished. The report(s) will be available to the property

-------
3
owners.
Comment: A request was made that EPA provide monthly reports to
the Borough of Lansdowne to inform the Borough of all a~tions
that are being considered or being undertaken by EPA.

Response: EPA intends.to keep municipal and state officials
fully advised of Site-related activities.
Comment: A suggestion
headed by residents be
those houses for which
option.
was made that a non-profit corporation
funded by EPA to perform the rebuilding of
the owners choose the onsite relocation
..

Response: The on-site replacement of structures will be
performed by EPA through the u.s. Army Corps of Enqineers as part
of a remedial action for which EPA is responsible. Close
coordination between EPA, the Corps, and the affected homeowners
during the design phase will ensure that replacement structures
preserve the original character of the structures and surrounding
neighborhoods to the maximum extent practicable. Architects and
building contractors will be selected through appropriate
government procurement practices which will assure that EPA's
remedial action requirements are achieved. Property owners will
have ample opportunity to participate in decisions affecting
replacement of their homes. While EPA may not, as the comment or
points out, have expertise in home building, the Agency will
secure that expertise through existing contracting mechanisms and
will not delegate authority to execute any portion of the
remedial action to a non-profit corporation.

Comment: A commentor requested t-~at local ordinances, including
municipal building codes, should be listed as applicable or
relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs).
Response: Municipal ordinances, including buildinq codes, are
not ARARs as defined under CERCLA because they are neither
Federal nor state environmental requirements and, as such, are
not listed as ARARs in the ROD. However, construction conducted
by EPA will conform to municipal buildin~ codes to the maximum
extent practicable.

Comment: A commentor expressed concern that residents who are
temporarily relocated for the purposes of the remedial action
will not be adequately provided for.
Response: All temporary relocations will be conducted pursuant
to the provisions of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real
Prope~ty Acquisition policies Act of 1970, as amended, 42 U.S.C.
S 4601 et seq., which provides for, among other things, temporary
housing of displaced persons. The temporary relocations will be
conducted through the u.s. Army Corps of Engineers.

-------
4
Comment: A commentor suggested that, for any residential
property for which the repair option is selected, EPA should
repair not only those portions of the property that are
remediated to remove radiation contamination, but also any
uncontaminated areas of the house(s) on which maintenance was
deferred by the owner(s). .

Response: EPA will repair only those portions of each property
that must be destroyed, under the repair option, to remediate the
contaminated portions of each property. EPA may use Superfund
monies to repair damage resulting from contamination but may not
make other repairs to the properties.
Comment: A commentor expressed concern that the entire amount of
a mortgage m1ght become due and payable by the owner(s) in the
event that a house is dismantled for the purposes of a remedial
action.
Response: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has considered this
matter and will work with the mortgagees to assure them that the
loss of collateral (the houses) is temporary and that, in the
cases of onsite relocation, new dwellings will be rebuilt to
continue security for the mortgages.

Comment: A comment or expressed that, in those instances where
onsite relocation is chosen, that EPA should state, at the
completion of the remedial action for each property, that the
property in question is no longer considered by EPA to be part of
the site.
Response: Each property which undergoes remedial action will
remain on the Superfund National Priorities List (the "NPL")
until deleted from that listing through the formal process
required pursuant to the NCP.

Comment: A commentor requested that EPA state in the ROD that
the remedial action selected for the Site is the only action
contemplated to address contamination at the Site.
Response: The remedial actions selected.in the ROD are the sole.
remedial actions that will be implemented at the residential
properties identified in the ROD. EPA does not expect that
uranium-contaminated ground water recently discovered in the
immediate vicinity of the former CUmmings facility affects any of
these residential properties. Remedial actions, if any, deemed
appropriate by EPA to address this ground water contamination
would be announced in a subsequent Record of Decision.
Comment: A commentor requested an explanation of how the present
value shown in the Revised PRAP for 133 Austin Avenue was
determined and also requested that EPA consider increasing that
value.

-------
5
Response: The present value of the property at 133 Austin Avenue
was derived by adding the estimated market value of the property
(uncontaminated) plus a reasonable contingency amount which might
be necessary in order to provide a comparable replacement
property. All real estate transactions relative to this property
will be conducted by the u.s. Army Corps of Engineers using the
provisions of the URA. .

Comment: A. commentor suggested that either the Agency for Toxic
Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) or EPA should make health
surveillance available to the residents of the site.
Response: ATSDR is authorized to implement medical surveillances
pursuant to section 104(i) (9) of CERCLA. Such programs are
initiated where ATSDR determines that there is a significant
increased risk of adverse health effects from exposure to
hazardous substances released from a site. ATSDR has not made
such a determination under section 104(i) (9) of CERCLA and,
therefore, no surveillance is currently planned for this site.
Comment:
houses.
A commentor commended EPA for its proposal to rebuild
Response: EPA has endeavored to be responsive to the community's
concerns throughout the remedy selection process. Onsite
replacement structures will be provided in those instances in
which the property owners choose onsite relocation. No
structures will be rebuilt on those properties for which the
owners choose offsite relocation.
Comment: Homeowners insisted that their houses not necessarily
be repaired as provided in the March 2, 1994 Revised PRAP, but
that they (the homeowners) be afforded a choice among repair of
their dwelling, onsite relocation or offsite re~ocation.

Response: EPA made a change to the Revised PRAP such that the
owners of four of the properties which had been proposed for
repair in the original version of the Revised PRAP would be given
the option of choosing either repair, onsite relocation, or
offsite relocation. .
comment: A request was made .for an extension of the 30-day
public comment period for the Revised PRAP.

Dear Mr. Kostmayer,

The Record of Decision received by the Department on June
15, 1994 has been reviewed.
The major components of the s~lected remedy include:
*
Removal of contamination and repair of structures at 346
Owen Avenue and 42 and 44 South Union Avenue.
*
Eighteen additional properties will have contaminated
structual components removed or will be completely
dismantled. Tenants will be relocated, owners will
choose repair (if feasible), replacement of structure, .
or permanent relocation.

Following remediation the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
will acqUire title, or make arrangements fo~ transfer of
title to a third party, to those propertie~ in which
owners select permanent relocation.
*
*
Removal and offsite disposal of radiation-contaminated
soils to permitted facilities. Backfilling and
revegetation of remediated properties.

Replacement of storage building at 135 Austin Avenue and
provision of offsite structure or equivalent to replace
the former 133 Austin Avenue.
*
I hereby concur with the EPA's proposed actions, with the.
following conditions:

remedial action must preclude any degradation of ground
water through leaching or other infiltration of
hazardous substances or contaminants addressed by the
R.OD. The Depa;rtment understands that the cleanup
standards for soils contained in the ROD will satisfy
this condition.
*
The Department will be given the opportunity to concur
with decisions related to the Remedial Design and the
Remedial Action to ensure compliance with DER cleanup
ARARs and design specific ARARs.

The Department's design standards are ARARa pursuant to
CERCLA Section 121, 42 a.s.c. S962~, and the Department
maintains the right to enforce those design standards.
.*
*
This concurrence with the selected remedial action is
not intended to provide any assurances pursuant to
CERCLA Section 104(c) (3), 42 U.S.~. 59604(c) (3).
.
Additionally, the Department understands that ground water
contamination has been discovered at the site and that any plan
to address this ground water would be developed in the future.

Thank you for the opportunity to concur with this EPA
Record of Decision. If you have any questions regarding this
matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.
