[Continued from previous Web Page] 49-00060A: Corson Asphalt, Inc. (26 Beaver Street, Cogan Station, PA 17728) for proposed re-activation and operation of a batch mix asphalt plant at their facility in Ralpho Township, Northumberland County. The PM emissions from the aggregate dryer, the elevator, hot mix bins and the mixer will be controlled by the proposed cyclone and fabric collector.
The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information contained in the application submitted by Corson indicates that the aggregate dryer, the elevator, hot mix bins, and the mixer (Source ID P101) controlled by the proposed cyclone (ID C101A) and fabric collector (ID C101B) will comply with all applicable air quality requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the fugitive air contaminant emission requirement of 25 Pa. Code § 123.1, the PM emission limitation of 25 Pa. Code § 123.13 and the visible emission limitation of 25 Pa. Code § 123.41. The plan approval, if issued, will subsequently be incorporated in a State-only operating permit via an administrative amendment in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.450 at a later date.
Based upon this finding, the Department proposes to issue a plan approval for the construction of asphalt plant and installation of the cyclone and fabric collector to control PM emissions from the aggregate dryer, the elevator, hot mix bins and the mixer.
