DEP postpones Clear Harbors meeting
SUNBURY - The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has postponed a public meeting concerning the former Celotex building while the property owner addresses a "technical deficiencies" letter from DEP.
The meeting - a public discussion of a residual waste transfer station permit application submitted by Clean Harbors Environmental Services of Columbia, S.C., - was originally planned for June 14.
On May 11, Clean Harbors asked that DEP suspend its permit application review and cancel the meeting. The company said it needs more time to respond to a letter DEP sent May 1, describing the technical deficiencies that need to be corrected in the application.
The meeting will be rescheduled when Clean Harbors proceeds with the permit review process and responds to the technical deficiency letter.
The proposed facility would receive and process drill cuttings, drilling mud and other Marcellus Shale well pad wastes for solidification and consolidation prior to being shipped off-site for either recycling or disposal. It would also receive paper, cardboard, well pad mats, plastics, waste oil and ferrous and non-ferrous metals, which would go through the same process.
