A Sept. 2 DEP letter indicated Bethlehem Landfill complied with corrective‑action deadlines in paragraph 3 of the Jan. 14 consent order; the committee discussed whether that resolves remaining obligations and Lawson said she believes it is final for the corrective‑action components.

Between July and September 2026, staff recorded seven radioactive‑load alarms (iodine‑131, technetium‑99, lutetium‑177); Lawson said each flagged load was disposed on‑site and reported to the Pennsylvania DEP.

Operations reported monthly leachate discharges totaling roughly 1.1 million gallons in July and similar monthly volumes; roughly 495,297 gallons of leachate were routed to a PFAS treatment plant, and members asked for status on PFAS concentrate handling and destruction plans.
