Abstract: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, acting through the Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP), the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), and the Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) (collectively, the Trustees) have prepared this Final Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment (Final RP/EA) to identify, evaluate, and propose alternatives to restore injured natural resources, including their supporting ecosystems and the services they provide, in order to compensate the public for the injury to natural resources resulting from releases of hazardous substances at and from the Metal Bank Superfund Site in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (the “Site”). This Final RP/EA was prepared jointly by the Trustees in accordance with Section 111(i) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and its implementing regulations (43 C.F.R. § 11.93). This Final RP/EA describes the Trustees’ restoration planning processes for the natural resources damage assessment (NRDA) and the restoration alternative that the Trustees propose to compensate the public for the natural resource injuries associated with the Site.
