OPERATING PERMITS
Intent to Issue Title V Operating Permits under the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001--4015) and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G.
Northcentral Region: Air Quality Program, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701; Contact: Muhammad Zaman, Facilities Permitting Chief, (570) 327-3637.
19-00003: Bloomsburg University (400 East Second Street, Bloomsburg, PA 17815) for their state university in Bloomsburg, Columbia County. The facility's major air contamination sources are five anthracite coal fired boilers used to provide steam and heat for the entire university campus. This facility has the potential to emit major quantities of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Particulate Matter (PM) and Sulfur Oxides (SOx). As a result of the potential emissions, the facility is a major stationary source as defined in Title I, Part D of the Clean Air Act Amendments. The facility is therefore subject to the Title V permitting requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code, Chapter 127, Subchapter G. The facility has taken restriction on fuel throughput to limit Nitrogen Oxide emissions below major emission thresholds and avoid Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) requirements for NOx emissions. The facility has the potential to emit Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPS) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) below the major emission thresholds. This Title V operating permit contains all applicable regulatory requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting conditions.
53-00005: Dominion Transmission Corp.--Greenlick Station (625 Liberty Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-3199) for their Natural Gas Transmission facility in Stewardson Township, Potter County. The Title V Operating Permit revision is to incorporate conditions from Plan Approval 53-0003B for operation of a 26.5 MMBtu/hr natural gas pipeline heater. The installation of the heater increases the facility's potential to emit nitrogen oxides by 4.20 tons per year, carbon monoxide by 42.18 tons per year and volatile organic compounds by 6.61 tons per year. This Title V operating permit contains all applicable regulatory requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting conditions.

Certification Request Initiated by: Consolidation Coal Company, 1800 Washington Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15241.
Date of Initial Pennsylvania Bulletin Notice: June 19, 1999
Project Description: Consol proposes to construct and maintain passive treatment facilities in approximately 21 acres of existing wetlands (PEM) to treat mine drainage that currently flows into the wetlands from the former Hutchinson and Angelcyk Mines. The proposed project will enhance the existing wetlands with recontouring and berm construction to increase detention time and thereby to improve the quality of the discharges to Little Sewickley Creek (TSF). The existing wetlands which are to be enhanced were created and are sustained by the discharges from abandoned Pittsburgh and Redstone coal seam mines.
Location: The site is located approximately 0.5 mile east of Cowansburg (Irwin, PA Quadrangle N: 05 inch; W: 17.0 inches) (the discharge from the wetland is located at Latitude 40°15`07" Longitude 79°45`00") in Sewickley Township, Westmoreland County.

Initial requests for 401 Water Quality Certification will be published concurrently with the permit application. Persons objecting to approval of a request for certification under section 401 or to the issuance of a Dam Permit or Water Obstruction and Encroachment Permit, or the approval of an Environmental Assessment must submit any comments, suggestions or objections within 30 days of the date of this notice as well as any questions to the office noted before the application. Comments should contain the name, address and telephone number of the person commenting, identification of the certification request to which the comments or objections are addressed and a concise statement of comments, objections or suggestions including the relevant facts upon which they are based.
The Department may conduct a fact-finding hearing or an informal conference in response to comments if deemed necessary. Each individual will be notified, in writing, of the time and place of a scheduled hearing or conference concerning the certification request to which the comment, objection or suggestion relates. Maps, drawings and other data pertinent to the certification request are available for inspection between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. on each working day at the office noted before the application.
Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings should contact the specified program. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.
