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, P.O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483.

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.

PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Act (35 P.S. §§ 6021.101—6021.2104).
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 245 Subchapter D, Administration of the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Program, require the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A remedial action plan is submitted to summarize the site characterization, document the design and construction details for the remedial action, and describe how the remedial action will attain the selected remediation standard. The remedial action plan also provides results of studies performed and data collected to support the remedial action and a description of postremediation care requirements. A remedial action completion report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to the selected remediation standard. A remedial action completion 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 non-residential 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.
For further information concerning plans or reports, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the DEP Regional Office under which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate Regional Office listed.

PREAMBLE 3
The DEP has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Act (35 P.S. §§ 6021.101—6021.2104).
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 245 Subchapter D, Administration of the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Program, require the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on plans and reports.
A remedial action plan is submitted to summarize the site characterization, document the design and construction details for the remedial action, and describe how the remedial action will attain the selected remediation standard. The remedial action plan also provides results of studies performed and data collected to support the remedial action and a description of postremediation care requirements. A remedial action completion report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to the selected remediation standard. A remedial action completion 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 non-residential 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.
The DEP may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the DEP's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval. For further information concerning the plans and reports, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the DEP Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears.

Revision to the Registered ERCs in the Commonwealth's ERC Registry The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has approved the following Emission reduction credits (ERCs) and entered into ERC registry system. ERCs are surplus, permanent, quantified and Federally enforceable emission reductions used to offset emission increases of criteria pollutants. The Department maintains an ERC registry in accordance with the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 127.209. Prior to registration of the credits, ERC Registry Applications are reviewed and approved by the Department to confirm that the ERCs meet the requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206—127.208. Registration of the credits in the ERC registry system constitutes certification that the ERCs satisfy applicable requirements.
The certified ERCs shown as follows, in tons per year (tpy), satisfy the applicable ERC requirements contained in 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206—127.208. ERCs created from the curtailment or shutdown of a source or facility expires for use as offsets 10 years after the emission reduction occurs. ERCs generated by the over control of emissions by an existing facility do not expire for use as offsets. However, credits in the registry that are not used in a plan approval will be discounted if new air quality requirements are adopted by the Department or United States Environmental Protection Agency.
For additional information concerning this listing of certified ERCs, contact the Bureau of Air Quality, Division of Permits, Department of Environmental Protection, 12th Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, P.O. Box 8468, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8468, (717) 787-4325.
