LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 3
The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907).
Section 250.8 of 25 Pa. Code and administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the remediation standards of the act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Plans and reports required by the act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation; concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of reuse of the property; and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office under which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report 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.

The facility is a manufacturing-commercial printing processor, which operates flexo- graphic printing presses, numerous space heaters, and various miscellaneous sources associated with printing and manufacturing. Superpac, Inc. is a major facility for Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions and is currently operating under Title V Operating Permit No. 09-00003. The print section of the existing machine Source ID 110-Flexo Press CI-12 with Dryer will be replaced. Press speed and inks, thinners and clean-up solvents applied will not change with this modification. Production volume will increase by approximately 15% due to quicker changeover time. Based on the information provided in the plan approval application, the increase in VOC emissions, as calculated per 25 Pa. Code § 127.203a(a)(1)(i), is 0.70 tons per year (4.64 tons per year to 5.34 tons per year) and is considered to be a de minimis emission increase, according to 25 Pa. Code § 127.449(d)(5). The press will continue to use water-based inks that meet the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 129.67(b)(1).

Ball Aerosol & Specialty Container Inc is a metal can manufacturing facility. The sources of emissions include: side seam stripe lines (6), stripe cleaning, and parts washers.
The facility has applied to have the following emissions, which will be the result of the increased throughputs due to an increase in production:
VOCs less than 4.3 tons during the term of the permit.
These emission increases qualify as de minimis increases under 25 Pa. Code § 127.449. The facility will now have a VOC emission limit of 24.9 tons per year calculated on a 12-month rolling sum.
Monitoring, record keeping and reporting requirements have been added to the permit to address applicable limitations.

Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with sections 301—303, 306 and 307 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1311—1313, 1316 and 1317) and that the construction will not violate applicable Federal and State water quality standards.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704.

The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.
For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.
Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.
