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.

Northeast Region: Air Quality Program, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790, Ray Kempa, New Source Review Chief, (570) 826-2507.
PA No. 66-315-053: The Procter & Gamble Paper Products Co. (P. O. 31, Mehoopany, PA 18692) for modification of paper machines 1M (Source ID 501), 3M (Source ID 503), 4M (Source ID 504), 5M (Source ID 505) and 6M (Source ID 506) for their plant in Washington Township, Wyoming County.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44(b) and 127.424(b), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue Plan Approval No. 66-315-053 to The Procter & Gamble Paper Products Co., P. O. 31, Mehoopany, PA 18692, for their plant in Washington Township, Wyoming County. The facility currently has Title V Permit No. 66-00001. This plan approval will be incorporated into the Title V operating permit through an administrative amendment at a later date, and the action will be published as a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
Plan Approval No. 66-315-053 is for the modification of paper machines 1M (Source ID 501), 3M (Source ID 503), 4M (Source ID 504), 5M (Source ID 505) and 6M (Source ID 506). These modifications involve changing the paper drying scheme on 1M, 3M, 4M and 6M machines and installing a dust collection system for PM control on 3M and 6M paper machines. These modifications to the paper machines will provide for increase drying capacity rate, thereby allowing the speed of the paper machines to increase. The resulting increase in production from these units will be approximately 10 to 14%. The existing capacity of the furnace and the combustion turbine is sufficient for this changes and no increase in the allowable emission will results. The increase throughput on these machines will results in increased chemical additive usages which will results in increase in VOC emission from these paper machines. This project does not impact emissions from other sources at the site. The VOC emissions increase due to modification will be 7.0 tpy, based on a 12-month rolling sum.
In addition, the existing dust control equipment will be moved from the 5M paper machine to the 3M paper machine. A drop out chamber (settling chamber) with estimated control efficiency for the paper dust of 60% will be installed to control dust emissions from 5M paper machine. Resulting PM10 emissions will be less than 2.0 tpy. Same exhaust system will also be added to paper machines 3M and 6M with drop out chambers under repulper. The future potential PM emissions will be 3.3 tpy from each (3M and 6M) paper machines.
The Plan Approval and Operating Permit will contain additional recordkeeping and operating restrictions designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.
Copies of the application, the Department's analysis and other documents used in the evaluation of the application are available for public review during normal business hours at Air Quality Program, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711.
Any persons wishing to provide the Department with additional information which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of this permit may submit the information to the address shown in the preceding paragraph. Each written comment must contain the following:
Name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments.
Identification of the proposed permit No.: 66-315-053.
A concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to the issuance of the permit.

67-05069: Oldcastle Stone Products (550 South Biesecker Road, Thomasville, PA 17364) for their Thomasville Facility in Jackson Township, York County.
Northcentral Region: Air Quality Program, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701, David Aldenderfer, Program Manager, (570) 327-3637.
14-00017: Supelco, Inc. (595 North Harrison Road, Bellefonte, PA 16823) for modification of a State-only operating permit for a chromatographic equipment manufacturing facility in Spring Township, Centre County.
The proposed modifications to the operating permit consist of establishing new annual throughputs for a 3,000 gallon waste solvent storage tank and modifying an activated carbon drum monitoring requirement to require weekly monitoring of a solvent breakthrough detector.
As the waste solvent storage tank is equipped with an activated carbon drum for VOC/VHAP emission control, any change in VOC/VHAP emissions which will result from the proposed new annual tank throughputs are expected to be inconsequential.
The facility in which the waste solvent storage tank is located is not a major (Title V) facility for any air contaminant.
The Department proposes to incorporate the following modified conditions in State-only Operating Permit 14-00017:
1. The throughput through the waste solvent storage tank shall not exceed:
methanol: 9,591 gallons per year
methylene chloride: 2,069 gallons per year
toluene: 1,824 gallons per year
acetonitrile: 2,168 gallons per year
chloroform: 527 gallons per year
carbon tetrachloride: 12 gallons per year
hexane: 617 gallons per year
isopropanol: 1,561 gallons per year
ethanol and miscellaneous organic solvents (other than acetone): 224 gallons per yearThe waste solvent storage tank may also be used for the storage of waste acetone without restriction on throughput.
2. The permittee shall monitor the exhaust of the activated carbon drum associated with the waste solvent storage tank for breakthrough on a weekly basis (or a less frequent basis if the Department of Environmental Protection determines that a less frequent basis is acceptable) by visually inspecting the carbon drum's breakthrough detector and shall replace the carbon, or the entire drum, within one business day after detecting a color change in the breakthrough detector.
3. The air contaminant emissions from the waste solvent storage tank shall be controlled by an activated carbon drum which incorporates a breakthrough detector.
