PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS
NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The 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 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 received applications for Plan Approvals or Operating Permits from the following facilities.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional office listed before the applications. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule appointments.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit shall indicate interests to the Department regional office within 30 days of the date of this notice and shall file protests or comments on a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed documents to persons or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that hearings be held concerning a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit. A comment or protest filed with the Department regional office shall 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.

AMS 12195: Philadelphia Energy Solutions Refining and Marketing LLC (PES)—formerly Sunoco, Inc.—R&M (3144 Passyunk Avenue Philadelphia, PA 19145) to replace hourly heat input capacity limits on seven (7) heaters with annual heat input limits and install Ultra Low-NOx Burners (ULNBs) on two (2) of the heaters in the City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia County. The heaters are limited to refinery fuel gas with individual heat input limits that combine to 730.6 MMBTU/hr. The proposed annual heat input limits total 6,806,000 MMBTU per rolling 12-month period. The increase in potential emissions in the application due to the project are 140.1 tons of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), 23.2 tons of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), 13.2 tons of both Particulate Matter with a diameter of 10 micrometers or less (PM10) and Particulate Matter with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less (PM2.5), 191.6 tons of Carbon Monoxide (CO), 7.1 tons of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), and Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) of 255,372 metric tons Carbon Dioxide equivalent CO2e), all on a rolling 12-month basis. The plan approval will contain work practice, testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements to ensure operation within all applicable requirements.
The proposed changes to the following are also intended to meet the reasonably available control technology (RACT) requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA) for the 1997 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS): the removal of the MMBTU/hr heat input limit for each heater, the addition of MMBTU heat input and NOx emission limits per rolling 12-month period limit for each heater, the requirement to burn only refinery fuel gas for each heater, and the installation of the addition of ULNBs on two heaters. A more detailed description and analysis can be found in the Statement of Basis. The CAA requires Philadelphia to submit to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision demonstrating that Philadelphia has implemented all necessary Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) controls on all major stationary sources of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx).In 2006, Air Management Services (AMS) developed a RACT SIP revision demonstrating that it implemented required RACT controls on all relevant stationary sources of VOC and NOx emissions and that all RACT plans previously approved by EPA under the 1-hour ozone NAAQS were applicable to represent RACT control levels under the new 8-hour ozone NAAQS. The SIP revision relied on the NOx SIP Call emissions trading program. On July 10, 2009, the D.C. Circuit Court determined that the NOx SIP Call did not meet the specific source RACT requirements as required by the CAA. Accordingly, any air pollution source installed prior to the adoption of the 1997 8-hour Ozone NAAQS that was applicable to the NOx SIP Call and did not have to install any controls in the original case-by-case RACT must now conduct a new case-by-case RACT determination to address any changes in technologies that occurred since the prior 1-hour Ozone NAAQS was adopted and implemented. Therefore, this notice is also intended to propose as a revision to the Philadelphia portion of the Pennsylvania SIP changes to NOx RACT controls for the seven (7) modified heaters in PES. For each of these heaters RACT is determined to be annual emission limits, throughput limits, refinery fuel gas burning, and, for two heaters, installation of ULNBs, as described above.
Copies of all documents and information concerning this plan approval and SIP revision are available for review in the offices of AMS, room 218, 321 University Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19104-4543 during normal business hours. Persons wishing to review these documents or to submit written comments should contact Ms. Karen Smith (215-685-7572) at the above address. All written comments must be received by [30 days from publication date]. Comments received by facsimile will not be accepted.
If requested, the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, Air Management Services (AMS) will conduct a public hearing to receive comments on the preliminary determination to approve the application (Plan Approval No. 12195) on Monday, January 13, 2014, at 7 p.m. at the Mercy Wellness Center (2nd Floor), 2821 S. Island Avenue (Island Ave. & Lindbergh Blvd.), Philadelphia, Pa. 19153.
Persons wishing to request a public hearing must submit the request in writing to Source Registration, Air Management Services, 321 University Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19104-4543 by [30 days from publication date].
