Soil Contamination From an Off-Site Source Not Remediated--General
Please be advised that contamination in the soil at this site exists above the Department's applicable soil Remediation Standards, N.J.A.C. 7:26D-4. Based on completion of a preliminary assessment and site investigation (PA/SI) of the entire site, as applicable, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:26E-3, I have confirmed that the source of this contamination is from an off-site source and that there is no on-site contribution to this contamination. This aspect of the site was reported to the Department and assigned the Department's Hotline incident number(s) 00-00-00-0000-00. Any redevelopment on this site should take into consideration the potential for direct contact soil exposure.
Soil Contamination From an Off-Site Source Not Remediated--Diffuse Anthropogenic Pollution
The reference in the following Notice to Child Care Facilities should only be included in a child care Response Action Outcome. It should not be included in a non-child care Response Action Outcome.
Please be advised that contamination in the soil at this site exists above the Department's applicable soil Remediation Standards, N.J.A.C. 7:26D-4. Based on an evaluation of data and the Department's "Diffuse Anthropogenic Pollution (DAP) Guidance," it has been determined that surficial contamination that was identified during the evaluation of the site is consistent with DAP. This impact to soils at the site was not required to be reported to the Department's Hotline and therefore no incident number was generated. Development or redevelopment on this site should take into consideration the potential for direct contact soil exposure to contaminants in soil caused by DAP. [Select for Response Action Outcomes involving Child Care Facilities Only: However, to minimize potential direct contact at this Child Care Center an impermeable barrier should be installed over the surface of the outdoor play area in its entirety in accordance with Department guidance for presumptive remedies found at www.nj.gov/dep/srp/guidance/srra/presumptive_remedy_guidance.pdf. The Department recommends that any such barrier consist of impermeable materials, such as hard surfacing, poured rubber, or rubber matting, etc. Finally, the Department recommends that the Child Care Center maintain documentation that provides proof of installation and proper maintenance of the integrity of the barrier.]
Naturally Occurring Levels of Constituents in Ground Water
Note that use of this Notice primarily applies to metals, and excludes anthropogenic background contamination including, but not limited to, synthetic organic chemicals such as petroleum byproducts/hydrocarbons, chlorinated compounds, and any compound that cannot be considered naturally occurring, including on-site source.
Please be advised that concentrations of [insert specific materials] were detected in the ground water at this site above the Department's Ground Water Remediation Standards (N.J.A.C. 7:26D-2). However, these concentrations are associated with naturally occurring levels of these constituent(s) in the ground water. Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 58:10B, remediation beyond naturally occurring levels is not required. Development or redevelopment on this site should take into consideration the potential for exposure to constituents that exceed the Ground Water Quality Standards (N.J.A.C. 7:9C).
Historically Applied Pesticides Not Addressed
This Notice should not be used in situations where the manufacturing, mixing, or other handling of these chemicals resulted in a discharge to the environment. This Notice also would not be appropriate for properties going through a change of use to residences, schools, child care centers, and/or playgrounds.
Please be advised that the remediation that is covered by this Response Action Outcome does not address the remediation of contaminants that may exist from the historical application of pesticides. As a result, any risks presented by the historical application of pesticides may remain. An evaluation of historical pesticides should be completed if there is a land use change to residences, schools, child care centers and playgrounds. This exclusion does not apply if the pesticide contamination is from a discharge due to manufacturing, mixing, or other handling of these chemicals and not from application.
Ground Water Contamination due to Regional Historic Fill (Ground Water Confirmation Sampling has not been Conducted)
Please be advised that ground water contamination at this site may exist above the Ground Water Quality Standards (N.J.A.C. 7:9C), which may limit ground water use at this site. Ground water sampling has not been conducted at this site, but based on the observed presence of historic fill (through methods including, but not limited to, sampling, physical characterization, and/or mapping), it is concluded that contamination related to regional historic fill may be present in the ground water underlying the site. It has been determined that this presumed contamination is solely related to regional historic fill and there is no other on-site source of contamination contributing to this presumed ground water contamination. Based on these presumptions and conclusions, a Classification Exception Area (CEA) pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:26E-4.7(b) is required for the footprint of this property. Since the source of this presumed contamination is from regional historic fill only, the Department will maintain the Classification Exception Area, and a Remedial Action Permit for this contamination is not required. The duration of this Classification Exception Area is for an "indeterminate" period.
Sediment Contamination from an Off-Site Source Not Remediated -- General
Please be advised that contamination in the sediment at this site exists above ecological screening criterion, Lowest Effects Levels (LELs) and Severe Effects Levels (SELs). Based on completion of a preliminary assessment and site investigation (PA/SI) of the entire site, as applicable, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:26E-3, I have confirmed that the source of this contamination is from an off-site source and that there is no on-site contribution to this contamination. This aspect of the site was reported to the Department and assigned the Department's Hotline incident number(s) 00-00-00-0000-00. [Select only if there is verified known off-site source: This sediment contamination is being addressed under Department Program Interest # ______ .] Any redevelopment on this site should take into consideration the potential for ecological exposure to contaminated sediment.
[End APPLICABLE Notices]
In concluding that this remediation has been completed, I am offering no opinions concerning whether either primary restoration (restoring natural resources to their pre-discharge condition) or compensatory restoration (compensating the citizens of New Jersey for the lost interim value of the natural resources) has been completed.
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 58:10C-25, the Department may audit this Response Action Outcome and associated documentation up to three years following issuance. Based on a finding by the Department that a Response Action Outcome is not protective of public health, safety and the environment, the Department can invalidate the Response Action Outcome. Other justifications for the Department's invalidation of this Response Action Outcome are listed in the Administrative Requirements for the Remediation of Contaminated Sites at N.J.A.C. 7:26C-6, including, but not limited to, a Department audit following issuance of this document may be initiated at any time if: a) undiscovered contamination is found that was not addressed by the Response Action Outcome, b) if the Site Remediation Professional Licensing Board conducts an investigation of the Licensed Site Remediation Professional issuing the Response Action Outcome or, c) if the license of that person is suspended or revoked.
