[SRRA]: NJDEP Site Remediation & Waste Management Program Announces the Availability of Revised Technical Guidance: Historically Applied Pesticides Site Technical Guidance

The Department announces the availability of revised Technical Guidance:

The Historically Applied Pesticides Site Technical Guidance has been revised from Version 1.0 to Version 2.0. Revisions to the document included a revised definition for Historically Applied Pesticides (HAP) and added definitions for the terms "agriculture" and "golf course." A section was also added to allow the deferral of HAP remediation at active agricultural sites and active golf courses where sampling results indicate HAP are present at levels exceeding applicable standards. At these sites, remediation of the HAP-related contaminants can be deferred until the property is no longer used for agricultural purposes or as an active golf course. Remediation of all other contamination is still required in accordance with established regulatory and mandatory timeframes. As part of this technical guidance update, the Department is also making available a new Historically Applied Pesticides (HAP) Deferral Request Form.

Technical guidance documents can be accessed on the Site Remediation webpage in the Guidance Library (www.nj.gov/dep/srp/guidance/). The new form is available on the SRRA Forms webpage (www.nj.gov/dep/srp/srra/forms/).

Note: Technical guidance may be used immediately upon issuance. However, the Department recognizes the challenge of using newly issued or revised technical guidance when a remediation affected by the guidance may have already been conducted or is currently in progress. To provide for the reasonable implementation of new or revised technical guidance, the Department will allow a 6-month "phase-in" period between the date the technical guidance is issued and the time it should be used.
