LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.908).
Sections 302—305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the Background Standard, Statewide Health Standard, the Site-Specific Standard or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known or suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one, a combination of the cleanup standards or who receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.
Under sections 304(n)(1)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a Site-Specific Standard, in whole or in part, and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the sites identified, proposed for remediation to a Site-Specific Standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality within which the site is located may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified. During this comment period, the municipality may request that the person identified as the remediator of the site develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved and comments should be directed to the remediator of the site.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS
NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.
The Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.
Copies of the applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional office identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate their interest to the Department regional office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a proposed plan approval or operating permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Comments or protests filed with the Department regional offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the Plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts which serve as the basis for the objections. If the Department schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.
Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the regional office identified before the application. TDD users should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.
Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121—143, the Federal Clean Air Act (act) and regulations adopted under the act.

ASH less than or equal to 1.0% (by weight)The following analytical techniques and methods, or alternative methods approved in writing by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will be accepted for the analyses:
Constituent Analytical Technique
Arsenic EPA Method 6010, 6020, 7010, 7061 or 7062
Cadmium EPA Method 6010, 6020, 7000 or 7010
Chromium EPA Method 6010, 7000 or 7010
Lead EPA Method 6010, 7000 or 7010
PCBs EPA Method 8082
TX EPA Method 9075, 9076 or 9077
Flash Point EPA Method 1010 or ASTM D93
Ash ASTM D482
Sulfur ASTM D3227, D1552, D4294 or D129• The owner or operator may not blend WDLF into existing fuel or burn WDLF by itself unless an analysis has been performed for the specified constituents and a copy of the analysis is available demonstrating that none of the levels cited previously are exceeded before it is fired as fuel for the dryer. For each shipment of WDLF, a fuel specification sheet shall be obtained from the supplier.
• Prior to accepting each shipment of WDLF delivered to the facility, the owner or operator shall test each shipment for total halogens using EPA Reference Method 9077, or an alternate test method if approved in writing by the Department. If the test of any shipment reveals total halogens in excess of 1,000 ppmw, then the owner or operator shall refuse to accept the shipment. Vendor guarantee or recent test data from WDLF suppliers shall be sufficient to show compliance with this standard.
• The owner or operator shall take and retain a sample of each shipment of WDLF, biodiesel and any alternative fuels that is delivered to the facility. The samples shall be retained on-site for at least 1 year and shall be made available to the Department upon request. The samples are to be sealed and identified with the identity of the supplier, the date of delivery, the delivery invoice number, and the total gallons of WDLF in the shipment.
• For at least one (1) out of every fifteen (15) shipments of WDLF received at the facility, the owner or operator shall take an additional sample for the purpose of conducting a complete analysis for all the properties listed previously. The owner or operator shall use test methods specified previously, unless an alternate test method has been approved in writing by the Department. Aside from any sample taken from a shipment of WDLF received at the facility, the owner or operator need not store such additionally-sampled fuel separately nor delay its use. If the analysis results on such fuel are not received within fifteen (15) days of the date of delivery of the relevant shipment, the permittee shall cease using the WDLF fuel from the tank(s) in which the relevant shipment was placed until compliance with the limits listed previously is verified in the laboratory results. This auditing provision should not be interpreted, in any event, to allow the owner or operator to accept knowingly or use fuel not meeting permit specifications, or to accept or use fuel for which the facility does not have documentation from the waste oil supplier regarding compliance with permit specifications. If the analysis results show exceedances of any of the limits listed previously, then the owner or operator shall cease using the WDLF from the tank(s) in which the relevant shipment was placed, and shall not resume using WDLF from the tank(s) until either:
• The Department has granted written approval to resume use of the WDLF based on an alternate demonstration of acceptability of the WDLF in the tank(s) for use as fuel at the facility, or
• The WDLF remaining in the tank(s) has been re-sampled and
• If the re-sample meets the limits listed previously, the Department has granted written permission to resume using the WDLF, or
• If the re-sample fails to meet the limits listed previously, the Department has granted written permission to resume using the tank(s) after the owner or operator has emptied the WDLF from the tank(s) and has made proper disposal arrangements.
