Definitions

Source: http://www.state.ma.us/dep/bwsc/sites/statdef.htm

Release Address: The number and street that most accurately describe the site/release location.

Site Name/Location Aid: Describes the site in terms of its location, use, or type ("Bob's Gas Station" or "Across from Building 1").

Reporting Category: How quickly a release must be reported to DEP. The potential severity of a release dictates how soon it must be reported. Reporting categories are 2 hours, 72 hours, and 120 days.

Notification Date: The date DEP uses to establish 21E deadlines. This date is usually the date when the site/release was reported to DEP. However, for some sites, especially those dating before 1993, the notification date may be later than the date DEP first learned about the site.

 

Compliance Status: 21E sites compliance status definitions:

ADEQUATE REG (Adequately Regulated): A site/release where response actions are deemed adequately regulated under another DEP program or by another government agency.

DEPMOU (Memorandum of Understanding): A site/release where DEP has a Memorandum of Understanding or other written agreement with a responsible party.

DPS (Downgradient Property Status): A site where a DPS Submittal to DEP has stated that contamination on the property is coming from an upgradient property.

DPSTRM (Downgradient Property Status Terminated): A site where Downgradient Property Status has been terminated.

RAO (Response Action Outcome): A site/release where an RAO Statement was submitted. An RAO Statement asserts that response actions were sufficient to achieve a level of no significant risk or at least ensure that all substantial hazards were eliminated.

RTN Closed: Future response actions addressing the release associated with this Release Tracking Number (RTN) will be conducted as part of the response actions planned for the site under another "primary" RTN.

STMRET (Statement Retracted): An RAO Statement that had been submitted for the site has been retracted.

TCLASS (Tier Classification): A site/release where a Tier Classification Submittal was received, but the classification type has not been confirmed by DEP.

Note: Sites are usually Tier Classified using the Numerical Ranking System (NRS). The NRS scores sites on a point system based on a variety of factors. These include the site’s complexity, the type of contamination, and the potential for human or environmental exposure to the contamination. In addition, some sites are automatically classified as Tier 1 sites if they pose an imminent hazard, affect public water supplies, or miss regulatory deadlines.

TIER 1A: A site/release receiving a total NRS score equal to or greater than 550. These sites/releases require a permit and the person undertaking response actions must do so under direct DEP supervision.

TIER 1B: A site/release receiving an NRS score of less than 550 and equal to or greater than 450. These sites/releases also require a permit, but response actions may be performed under the supervision of a Licensed Site Professional (LSP) without prior DEP approval.

TIER 1C: A site/release receiving a total NRS score of less than 450 and equal to or greater than 350. A site/release receiving a total NRS score of less than 350, but which meets any of the Tier 1 Inclusionary Criteria specified in 310 CMR 40.0520(2)(a), is also classified a Tier 1C. These sites/releases also require a permit, but response actions may be performed under the supervision of an LSP without prior DEP approval.

TIER 2: A site/release receiving a total NRS score of less than 350, unless the site meets any of the Tier 1 Inclusionary Criteria (see above). Permits are not required at Tier 2 sites/releases and response actions may be performed under the supervision of an LSP without prior DEP approval. All pre-1993 transition sites that have accepted waivers are categorically Tier 2 sites.

DEF TIER 1B (Default Tier 1B): A site/release where the responsible party fails to provide a required submittal to DEP by a specified deadline.

UNCLASSIFIED: A release that has not reached its Tier Classification deadline (usually one year after it was reported), and where an RAO Statement, DPS Submittal, or Tier Classification Submittal has not been received by DEP.

The following definitions apply to sites that were reported to DEP prior to October 1993 and which were regulated under an older version of the MCP:

DEPNDS: DEP Not a Disposal Site means that DEP has determined that these locations did not need to be reported and are not disposal sites.

DEPNFA: DEP No Further Action means that response actions were conducted and DEP determined that no further action was needed for the site.

LSPNFA: LSP No Further Action means that response actions were conducted and an LSP has determined that no further action was needed for the site.

PENNDS: Pending Not a Disposal Site means a document was submitted to DEP asserting that these locations did not need to be reported and are not disposal sites. These submittals are considered pending until DEP audits them.

PENNFA: Pending No Further Action means a document was submitted to DEP asserting that a site assessment had determined that no further action was required. These submittals are considered pending until DEP audits them.

WCSPRM: A Waiver Completion Statement has been submitted to DEP.

Compliance Status Date: The date a release/site was listed as its current compliance status.

Phase: Indicates the release/site cleanup phase.

No Phase: Phase report not required or not submitted.

Phase I: Initial Site Investigation, including Tier Classification. In this phase, samples are collected and analyzed to determine the types, amounts, and location of contaminants.

Phase II: Comprehensive Site Assessment. During Phase II, the risks posed to public health, welfare, and the environment are determined.

Phase III: Identification, Evaluation, and Selection of Comprehensive Remedial Action Alternatives and the Remedial Action Plan. In Phase III, cleanup options are assessed and a cleanup plan is selected.

Phase IV: Implementation of the Selected Remedial Action Alternative and Remedy Implementation Plan. The cleanup plan is implemented in Phase IV.

Phase V: Operation, Maintenance, and/or Monitoring. During Phase V, long-term treatment processes are implemented and monitored to track cleanup progress.

RAO Class:The class of Remedial Action Outcome submitted to the Department:

Class A RAO- Remedial work was completed and a level of "no significant risk" has been achieved.

Class B RAO- Site assessment indicates that "no significant risk" exists. No remedial work was necessary.

Class C RAO- A temporary cleanup. Although the site does not present a "substantial hazard", it has not reached a level of no significant risk. The site must be evaluated every five years to determine whether a Class A or Class B RAO is possible. All sites are expected eventually to receive a Class A or B RAO.
