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 any 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, or 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 as 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, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department Regional Office under 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 listed. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

AIR QUALITY

Notice of Plan Approval and Operating Permit Applications

Nonmajor 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.

   Notice is hereby given that the Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities. Although the sources covered by these applications may be located at a major facility, the sources being installed or modified do not trigger major new source review or prevention of significant deterioration requirements.

   Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the Regional Offices 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 the 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. Any 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. TDD users may 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 through 143, the Federal Clean Air Act and regulations adopted under the act.

Interstate Ozone Transport Reduction

Proposed Revisions to Title V/State Only Operating Permits to establish NOx Allowance Allocations and to include Conditions relating to NOx Budget Trading Program

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue new or revise existing Title V/State Only Operating Permits to incorporate the provisions of 25 Pa. Code §§ 145.1--145.90. These regulations establish a NOx Budget and a NOx Budget Trading Program for NOx budget units for the purpose of achieving the health-based ozone ambient air quality standard. The Department is establishing the NOx Allowance Allocations for each NOx budget unit under the provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 145.42.

   The new or revised Title V/State only operating permits will, beginning in 2003, require the owner or operator of each NOx budget unit to hold a quantity of NOx allowances by November 30 of each year not less than the total NOx emissions for the control period from the NOx budget unit. One NOx Allowance is the limited authorization to emit one ton of NOx during the NOx Allowance Control Period, which begins May 1 of each year and ends September 30 of the same year. The NOx allowances held in the source's current year NOx Allowance Tracking System (NATS) compliance and overdraft accounts must be equal to or greater than the total NOx emitted from the source during the year's NOx allowance control period. The initial NOx allowance control period begins on May 1, 2003.

   The new or revised Title V/State only operating permits will also include emission monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping requirements for each NOx budget source. NOx emissions from each NOx budget source shall be monitored, reported and recorded in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 145.30 and 145.70--145.76.

   Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed Title V/Operating Permits or allocations must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed permits or allocations. Any comments or protests filed at the following address must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the permit and/or allocations 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 and a newspaper of general circulation, where the facility is located, at least 30 days prior to the date of the hearing.

   Copies of the proposed permits, allocations and other relevant information are available for review at the address given below.
