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 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.

   19-00001: Magee Rieter Automotive Systems (480 West Fifth Street, Bloomsburg, PA 17815) for renewal of a Title V Operating Permit 19-00001 for an automotive carpet manufacturing facility in the Town of Bloomsburg, Columbia County.

   The facility incorporates two 77 million Btu per hour No. 4 fuel oil-fired boilers, a 60 million Btu per hour anthracite coal/carpet scrap-fired boiler, an 86.6 million Btu per hour anthracite coal/carpet scrap-fired boiler, three propane/natural gas-fired carpet dryers, three polyurethane foam process lines, 11 solvent parts washers, 13 emergency generators (various fuels--diesel, gasoline, propane and natural gas), a diesel-fired fire pump, 13 small (100,000 Btu per hour each) propane/natural gas-fired space heaters, an 8,000 gallon isocyanate storage tank, two 8,000 gallon polyol storage tanks and a 210,000 gallon fuel oil storage tank.

   The PM emissions from each of the two anthracite coal/carpet scrap-fired boilers are controlled by a multiclone collector.

   The air contaminant emissions from the facility are not expected to exceed 2,482 tons of SOx, 75 tons of PM including up to 52 tons of PM10, 256 tons of NOx, 106 tons of CO, 20 tons of VOCs, 9.99 tons of hydrogen chloride and 11.78 tons of combined HAPs (including hydrogen chloride) per year.

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) proposes to renew Title V Operating Permit 19-00001. The Department of Environmental Protection intends to incorporate into this renewal all conditions currently contained in Title V Operating Permit 19-00001 with these exceptions, changes and/or additions:

   1.  A condition has been added to the permit which limits the facility's total combined emissions of hydrogen chloride or any other single HAP to less than 10 tons in any 12-consecutive month period and the total combined emissions of all HAPs to less than 25 tons in any 12-consecutive month period.

   2.  A condition has been added to the permit which requires the permittee to develop and submit a fuel analysis plan to the Department within 60 days of permit renewal for the purposes of determining the chlorine content of the fuels used in the facility on a continuing basis. Conditions have also been added requiring the permittee to implement the fuel analysis plan approved by the Department, to maintain records of the chlorine analyses performed pursuant to the approved plan and to submit semi-annual reports of this information to the Department.

   3.  A condition has been added to the permit requiring all fuel oil fired at this facility to be fuel oil to which no reclaimed or waste oil or other waste materials have been added.

   4.  Conditions concerning the monitoring of fuel oil sulfur content and the maintenance of records of this information have been modified to eliminate a monitoring option which the Department has determined does not provide the compliance demonstration originally intended and to require the maintenance of more comprehensive records of fuel oil sulfur content.

   5.  Conditions limiting the facility's two fuel oil-fired boilers to using only No. 4 fuel oil have been modified to also allow the use of No. 2 fuel oil. Conditions specifying the fuel oil sulfur content limit and requiring the maintenance and reporting of records of the amount of fuel oil used in each boiler have also been modified to include the applicable 25 Pa. Code § 123.22 sulfur content limit for No. 2 fuel oil and to require the maintenance and reporting of the amount of each separate type of fuel oil used in the boilers.

   6.  Conditions were added to the permit requiring the performance of PM and NOx stack tests on the facility's two anthracite coal/carpet scrap-fired boilers within 12 months of permit renewal and every 3 years thereafter.

   7.  Conditions addressing the facility's emergency generators have been modified to include several generators installed since the permit was originally issued and also reorganized so that the Source P106 conditions address only those generators which are subject to the 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.91--129.95 Reasonably Available Control Technology requirements and the Source P107 conditions address those generators which are not subject to the respective requirements.

   8.  A condition requiring the maintenance of records of the vapor pressure of the materials stored in the 210,000-gallon fuel oil storage tank has been replaced with a condition requiring the maintenance of records of the identity of the materials stored in the respective tank. A condition has also been added to the permit restricting the tank to the storage of fuel oil only.

   9.  Conditions have been added to the permit specifying the applicable 25 Pa. Code § 129.63 requirements for the facility's solvent parts washers.

   The proposed Title V operating permit renewal will be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency for approval as a permit issued in accordance with the permit program requirements of 40 CFR Part 70.
