  • Land Recycling Program Q&A Database the Following Questions and Responses Were Found in the Database: 221 Agricultural Land
    Page 1 of 119 Land Recycling Program Q&A Database The following questions and responses were found in the database: ID#: 221 Category: Agricultural Land Question: Are farms ineligible for Act 2 liability relief? Response: Generally, yes. Act 2 was enacted to facilitate the cleanup of former industrial sites and return them to productive use, and to help prevent the needless development of prime farmland, open space areas and natural areas. Act 2 does not apply to farmland that has residual concentrations of agricultural chemicals applied to the land using normal, routine and proper application methodologies established by the EPA, DEP, the PA Department of Agriculture, and the chemical’s manufacturer. Such normal agricultural practices do not constitute “releases” for the purposes of Act 2. If specific areas of a farm have been affected by a spill or release of regulated substances (i.e., through a practice) that does not fit within the scope of normal and routine agricultural practices, Act 2 would be available for those affected parts of the farm. An example of this would be a release of fuel oil from a leaking storage tank. Regulations: References: ID#: 222 Category: Agricultural Land Question: What if the farm has a known release of a contaminant? Response: The Department will use its authority under statutes other than Act 2 to enforce the cleanup of releases to farmland properties of agricultural chemicals that do not fit the definition of being released in the normal course of farming practices, such as leaks from fuel storage tanks. Regulations: References: Page 2 of 119 ID#: 223 Category: Agricultural Land Question: Can I take a whole farm through the Act 2 program? Response: No.

  • Overview of the Land Recycling Program
    Overview of the Land Recycling Program The Need for Land Recycling Past environmental policies in Pennsylvania disincentivized the private cleanup of old industrial sites, sometimes referred to as brownfields. Both state and federal cleanup laws can impose full responsibility for a site cleanup on new buyers, despite having no involvement in the contamination of the property. Pennsylvania’s policies promoted never-ending liability and discouraged private firms, lenders, and even public redevelopment authorities from getting involved. The positive aspects of an old industrial site, such as its location and available infrastructure, were frequently negated by the threat of huge, unknown cost and never-ending liability for an environmental cleanup of the site. Lenders were reluctant to invest in the purchase of such property if they become exposed to perpetual liability. Innocent buyers particularly shunned sites where those persons who were responsible for causing the contamination were bankrupt or couldn’t be identified. Too often, developers have chosen virgin properties as an alternative to old industrial sites with contamination problems. This has led to urban sprawl and the resulting loss of farmland, forests, and open space across Pennsylvania. The Land Recycling Program encourages the recycling and redevelopment of old industrial sites. It sets standards, by law, that are protective of human health and the environment and which consider future use. It provides potential developers with clear cleanup standards based on risk, not a moving target in a negotiated agreement, and provides an end to liability when that cleanup standard is achieved. These changes made many old industrial sites more attractive to potential developers.

Mrs. Thatcher has gone "green" and is working to lead the international response to global warming. The government in the Netherlands fell in the spring of 1989 as a result of disagreements over the funding of the country's ambitious environmental program. In the summer of 1988, the freighter Karin B wandered the oceans around Eu- rope seeking a port willing to off-load its cargo of hazardous wastes which had been illegally disposed of in Nigeria. The summer of 1988 also witnessed the death of seals in the North Sea, while many of Italy's most famous tourist breaches were closed by seaweed and pollution dur- ing the summer of 1989. More recently, the beaches in the Iron Curtain have revealed environmental degradation of immense proportions.
