Does PA also issue NFA letter (No Further Action required) ?

[Michael Chang]

Hi everyone,

I live in bucks county, Pennsylvania and am hoping to get advice about soil remediation process. I am currently under contract with a SFH property, but the seller was responsible remediating the soil contamination before closing. Then seller took care of the digging up the underground oil tank and remediated the soil contamination. The excavating contractor company, which did all the remediation work, produced a PA Unregulated Heating Oil
Storage Tank Closure Report to show that the work is completed and met the state requirement. However, I was expecting a “No Further Action letter” from the Township or PADEP. My question is the closure report produce by the excavating company same as the NFA by DEP? Should I ask for the NFA from the Township and PADEP? I'd like to just the make sure that the case is closed properly on the state level. Thanks in advance for your advice.
