23-00021: Congoleum Corp. (4401 Ridge Road, Delaware, PA 19061) for renewal of the Title V Operating Permit in Trainer Borough, Delaware County. The initial permit was issued on March 5, 2002. The facility manufactures patterned vinyl flooring, by employing rotogravure presses and coating lines to engrave images and apply protective/decorative layers on substrate. As a result of potential emissions of VOCs and NOx, the facility is a major stationary source as defined in the Clean Air Act, and is therefore subject to the Title V permitting requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subpart G. This Title V Renewal does not reflect any change in air emissions from the facility. The renewed permit contains monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.
46-00039: Exelon Generation Co.—Moser Generating Station (Moser and Yost Streets, Pottstown, PA 19464) for operation of an electrical power peak generating station in Lower Pottsgrove Township, Montgomery County. As a result of potential emissions of NOx and SOx, the Moser facility is a major stationary source, as defined in the Clean Air Act. The renewal contains applicable monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.
46-00032: SPS Technologies, Inc. (SPS), (301 Highland Avenue, Jenkintown, PA 19046) for a major aerospace parts manufacturing facility located at Highland Avenue Abington Township, Montgomery County. This action is a renewal of the facility's Title V Operating Permit originally issued on October 18, 2007. There have been several amendments of this TVOP since its original issuance. The renewal does not allow any new changes other than updating of source inventory and changes of minor significance. The operation is subjected to federal NESHAPS and NSPS regulations.

21-05002: PPG Industries, Inc. (400 Park Drive, Carlisle, PA 17015) for operation of their flat glass manufacturing facility in South Middleton Township, Cumberland County.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.463, the Department has received an application and intends to issue a revised Title V Operating Permit for the abovementioned facility. This will be a significant modification to the permit.
Recent regulations under Section 129 reduce allowable nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission levels and establish detailed monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the facility's two glass melting furnaces. The company previously requested an alternative compliance schedule for the No. 1 melting furnace in accordance with Section 129.304(c) which expressly provides for such measures. A petition for an alternative emission limitation for Glass Furnace No. 1 has been submitted to amend the previous requirements for that furnace based upon detailed cost figures now available for the facility. The Title V permit will be modified to approve this petition. This include the deletion of certain conditions related to the initial petition, the addition of conditions related to the new petition, and the revision of certain RACT-related conditions to ensure consistency with the SIP.
Facility actual emissions for calendar year 2012 included 2,968 tons of NOx, 705 tons of sulfur oxides and 261 tons of particulate matter.
