The Department of Environmental Protection Tuesday announced it has determined the Phase II portion of Elcon Recycling Services, LLC’s application for a commercial hazardous waste treatment and storage facility in Falls Township, Bucks County is administratively incomplete.
DEP has returned the application to the applicant, along with a letter citing the deficiencies. DEP approved Elcon’s Phase I application in November 2015.
“DEP remains committed to the thorough, rigorous and transparent review of this application,” said DEP Southeast Regional Director Pat Patterson. “These are applications that can be very complicated, and I applaud our staff for ensuring that we have all of the information that we need before moving forward with a technical review.”
Although the application has been returned to the applicant as incomplete, it has not been denied. Elcon may resubmit its application after addressing the deficiencies outlined by DEP. If Elcon resubmits the Phase II portion of its application, DEP will once again have 90 days to determine if it is administratively complete.
A copy of the application, the letter of deficiencies, as well as other project updates can be found on DEP’s Southeast Regional Office webpage.NewsClip:
