LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
UNDER ACT 2, 1995
PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P.S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907)
Sections 302—305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P.S. §§ 6026.302—6026.305) require the 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. A person intending to use the background standard, Statewide health standard, the site-specific standard or intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area shall 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 or a combination of cleanup standards or 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 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 following site, 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 as follows. 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.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office listed before the notice. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

49-00063A: Sensenig Milling Services, Inc. (10705 State Route 44, Watsontown, PA 17777) for the construction of a bakery waste rotary dryer incorporating a 45 million Btu per hour, natural gas/solid fuel-fired suspension burner at the Sensenig Milling Services' facility located in Lewis Township, Northumberland County. The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information submitted by Sensenig Milling Services' indicates that the air contamination sources to be constructed will comply with all regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the best available technology requirement (BAT) of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12. Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue a plan approval for the proposed construction. The emissions from the proposed source included in this project will not exceed the following limits: 18.74 tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx, expressed as NO2) per year, 17.87 tons of carbon monoxide per year, 4.82 tons of volatile organic compounds per year and 1.31 ton of particulate matter per year.
In addition to the emission limitations, the following is a brief description of the types of conditions the Department intends to place in the plan approval in order to ensure compliance with all applicable air quality regulatory requirements.
1. The permittee shall not permit the emission of sulfur oxides, expressed as SO2, into the outdoor atmosphere from the rotary dryer in such a manner that the concentration of the sulfur oxides in the effluent gas from the associated dust collector exceeds 500 parts per million, by volume, dry basis.
2. The permittee shall not permit the emission of particulate matter from the rotary dryer into the outdoor atmosphere in such a manner that the concentration in the effluent gas from the associated dust collector exceeds 0.01 grain per dry standard cubic foot.
3. The 45 million Btu per hour suspension burner incorporated in the rotary dryer shall only be fired on natural gas and non-hazardous secondary material. Paper and plastic packaging material, which shall be referred to as non-hazardous secondary materials from here on, are not solid wastes when used as a fuel for the rotary dryer that remain within the control of the generator and that meet the legitimacy criteria specified herein.
The legitimacy criteria are as follows:
(1) The non-hazardous secondary material must be managed as a valuable commodity based on the following factors:
(a) The storage of the non-hazardous secondary material prior to use must not exceed reasonable time frames;
(b) Where there is an analogous fuel, the non-hazardous secondary material must be managed in a manner consistent with the analogous fuel or otherwise be adequately contained to prevent releases to the environment;
(c) If there is no analogous fuel, the non-hazardous secondary material must be adequately contained so as to prevent releases to the environment;
(2) The non-hazardous secondary material must have a meaningful heating value and be used as a fuel in a combustion unit that recovers energy. Meaningful heating value shall be determined by the Department's Northcentral Region Waste Management Program. In accordance with the permit-by rule requirements specified in 25 Pa. Code § 287.102, the waste shall have a heating value of greater than 5,000 Btus per pound.
(3) The non-hazardous secondary material must contain contaminants or groups of contaminants at levels comparable in concentration to or lower than those in traditional fuel(s) which the combustion unit is designed to burn. In determining which traditional fuel(s) a unit is designed to burn, persons may choose a traditional fuel that can be or is burned in the particular type of boiler, whether or not the combustion unit is permitted to burn that traditional fuel. In comparing contaminants between traditional fuel(s) and a non-hazardous secondary material, persons can use data for traditional fuel contaminant levels compiled from national surveys, as well as contaminant level data from the specific traditional fuel being replaced. To account for natural variability in contaminant levels, persons can use the full range of traditional fuel contaminant levels, provided such comparisons also consider variability in non-hazardous secondary material contaminant levels. Such comparisons are to be based on a direct comparison of the contaminant levels in both the non-hazardous secondary material and traditional fuel(s) prior to combustion.
4. The non-hazardous secondary material used to fire the burner incorporated in the rotary dryer shall not include chloride-containing plastic packaging as a constituent. All such materials shall be separated from the non-hazardous secondary material and either recycled or landfilled, as applicable.
5. Non-combustible materials such as aluminum pie plates, shall not be used to fire the burner incorporated in the rotary dryer. All such materials shall be separated from the non-hazardous secondary material and either recycled or landfilled, as applicable.
6. The cyclone separator and the dust collector shall each be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor the differential pressure across the respective control device.
7. The 45 million Btu per hour suspension burner incorporated in the rotary dryer shall be equipped with an interlock, or other such device, which prevents the burner from firing more than 1,000 pounds of non-hazardous secondary material per hour.
8. The combustion chamber of the suspension burner incorporated in the rotary dryer shall be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor the temperature of the chamber. Additionally, the suspension burner shall be equipped with an interlock, or other such device, which prevents the auger from feeding non-hazardous secondary material into the combustion chamber of the burner when the temperature of the combustion chamber is less than 1,300°F.
9. The dust collector shall be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor the inlet temperature of the control device. Additionally, should the subject instrumentation detect temperatures approaching the dew point (approximately 126°F), the instrumentation shall signal the automatic dryer temperature control system to increase the heat input of the rotary dryer and/or decrease the waste feed rate to the rotary dryer.
10. The cyclone separator and the dust collector shall be installed inside a heated building.
11. The cyclone separator and the dust collector, as well as all associated ducting from the outlet of the rotary dryer to the inlet of the cyclone separator and from the outlet of cyclone separator to the inlet of dust collector, shall be insulated in such a fashion to prevent effluent gas from dropping to dew point or condensing in the control device surfaces.
12. The air compressor supplying compressed air to the dust collector shall be equipped with an air dryer and an oil trap.
13. The permittee shall keep on hand a sufficient quantity of spare fabric collector bags for the dust collector in order to be able to immediately replace any bags requiring replacement due to deterioration resulting from routine operation of the rotary dryer and the fabric collector.
14. Only bags treated with a fluoropolymer, or equivalent, which reduces filter cake build-up of agglomerating and strongly adhesive particulate matter, shall be used in the fabric collector.
15. All bakery and snack food waste materials and non-hazardous secondary materials at this facility shall be stored in an enclosure which prevents this material from being released to the environment.
16. The handling of all bakery and snack food waste materials, non-hazardous secondary materials, finished animal feed product and fly ash shall at no time result in the creation of fugitive emissions.
17. Within 120 days following the commencement of operation of the rotary, the permittee shall deactivate the existing rotary dryer by physically disabling the unit.
18. All conditions contained in State Only Operating Permit 49-00063 remain in effect unless superseded or amended by conditions contained in this plan approval. If there is a conflict between a condition or requirement contained in this plan approval and a condition or requirement contained in State Only Operating Permit 49-00063, the permittee shall comply with the condition or requirement contained in this plan approval rather than the conflicting condition or requirement contained in State Only Operating Permit 49-00063.
The facility is a State Only facility. If the Department determines that the sources are constructed and operated in compliance with the plan approval conditions and the specification of the application for Plan Approval 49-00063A, the requirements established in the plan approval will be incorporated into a state only operating permit pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 127.421.
