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.

Southwest Region: Air Quality Program, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745, William Charlton, New Source Review Chief, (412) 442-4174.
PA-30-00099F: Allegheny Energy Supply Company, Inc. (800 Cabin Hill Drive, Greensburg, PA 15601) for installation of Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) scrubbers to control SO2 emissions from three existing pulverized coal-fired boilers at their Hatfield's Ferry Power Station in Monongahela Township, Greene County.
Under 25 Pa. Code § 127.44(a), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue a Plan Approval to Allegheny Energy Supply Company, Inc. to allow the installation of FGD scrubbers to control SO2 emissions from three existing pulverized coal-fired boilers at their Hatfield's Ferry Power Station located in Monongahela Township, Greene County.
The applicant has provided information to demonstrate that the FGD scrubbers will remove approximately 94% of the pollutant SO2 from boiler stack emissions. PM10 emissions are also expected to decrease as a result of this project. Data provided by the applicant indicates that CO, NOx and VOC emission rates will not be impacted by this project. Estimated emission rates for all other PSD pollutants such as lead, fluorides and sulfuric acid mist are also either expected to decrease or not expected to increase as a result of the scrubber installation. Stack testing to confirm emission rates of the above pollutants will be required. Therefore, since the emission rates of those pollutants listed in 40 CFR 52.21(23) are expected to either decrease or remain unaffected by the installation of the FGD scrubbers, this project is not subject to 40 CFR 52 requirements.
The Department requested that Allegheny Energy conduct a modeling analysis to demonstrate that the operation of the proposed scrubbers will not cause or contribute to violations of the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). Allegheny energy's modeling analysis adequately demonstrates the proposed scrubbers will not cause or contribute to a NAAQS violation or violation of any Pennsylvania standards. The plan approval special conditions listed as follows contain emission limitations which are consistent with the modeled rates.
Copies of the application, Department's analysis and other documents used in evaluation of the application are available for public inspection during normal business hours at Department of Environmental Protection, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222.
For the Department to assure compliance with all applicable standards, Department proposes to place the following Special Conditions on the Plan Approval:
