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 should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, PO Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users may contact the Board through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. 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.

EA 49-002. Nottingham Village Retirement Center Associates, LP, 58 Neitz Road, Northumberland, PA 17857-9608. Stream Restoration in Point Township; ACOE Baltimore District.
The project proposes to restore approximately 200 linear feet of first order stream channel. The project will consist of the reestablishment of a natural meander pattern and profile of the Unnamed Tributary to the Susquehanna River, which is designated as a cold water fishery. This work shall remove the existing channel from the previously constructed storm water pond and reestablish the aquatic habitat and flow regime of the natural channel. Associated with this work will be several new meanders, toe protection and a reestablished off stream storm water containment pond. Water quality improvements shall be noted by eliminating stream disturbances associated with future storm water basin maintenance, increases water quality during facility expansions since an ''off-stream'' storm water basin can be utilized as a sediment basin during construction to control sediment laden water from entering the stream, maintaining hydraulic and hydrologic conditions upslope of the existing seep to ensure there are no secondary impacts to existing wetlands and streams and reduced erosion (head-cutting) in the existing stream channel by diverting existing facility storm water flows into new water quality management facilities. Increased stream channel stabilization by construction of a longer and meandering stream channel will reduce channel slope and be resilient to scour. Bio-retention facilities proposed along the upslope side of the proposed retention basin will promote overall water quality and recharge for the development. The tiered orientation will also help to sustain a permanent pool within the new retention basin. This project is located 1800 feet East on Leeds Drive from the intersection with Strawbridge Road.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Intent to Issue Plan Approval—IPAOP Philadelphia: Air Management Services, 321 University Avenue, Philadelphia, PA. 19104-4543, Contact: Edward Wiener, Chief, Source Registration at 215 685 9426.
AMS 14218: (Aker Philadelphia Shipyard Inc—2100 Kitty Hawk Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19112) for modifying source P-31 dry dock painting operation by relocating a portion of the production that currently occurs within the dry dock to an area adjacent to the existing dry docks. The facility also requests increases of HAP limit from ship building operation from 50.4 tons to 72.1 tons per rolling twelve month period due to a change in coating formulation as required by International Maritime organization's Performance Standard for Protective Coating (PSPC), and reduce the HAP emission limit from the sources in building 763 from 24.5 tons per twelve month rolling period to 2.8 tons per rolling twelve month period for combined HAPs or any singular HAP calculated monthly.
The plan approval will contain operating, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements to ensure operation within all applicable requirements.
AMS 08179: PaperWorks Industries, Inc. (5000 Flat Rock Road, Philadelphia, PA 19127) Modifying plan approval No. 08179 in order to continue operate boiler No. 1 with limited capacity (156MMBTU/hr) and with limited usage of No. 6 fuel oil in the City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia County. The primary fuel for Boiler No. 1 will be natural gas and operate with the maximum of 168 hrs/year with No. 6 fuel oil, solely for emergency purpose, to keep pipes from freezing in case of natural gas interruption. In addition to that, this modification removes the authorization of No. 6 fuel oil usage on boiler #3 and 4 and redefines these boilers as gas fired boiler. Boiler No. 3 & 4 will only burn natural gas.
The modification will have the following potential annual emissions from boiler No. 1: 138 tons of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), 7.22 tons of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), 54.52 tons of Carbon Monoxide (CO), 3.63 tons of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), 5.6 tons of Particulate Mat-ter; and for boiler No. 3 & 4 each, 10.15 tons of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx); 32.77 tons of Carbon Monoxide (CO), 2.2 tons of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), 2.96 tons of Particulate Matter. The potential emissions of all of these emissions will decrease as a result of the project due to the use of natural gas as a primary fuel for each boiler and operational limit of boiler No. 1 to 156 MMBTU/hr.
