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.

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 sites identified, 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.

18-00006: Dominion Transmission, Inc. (625 Liberty Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-3199) for issuance of a revised Title V Operating Permit under 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.521 and 127.541 for their Leidy natural gas transmission facility in Leidy Township, Clinton County. The Dominion representative to contact regarding this application is J. Darrell Bowen, Consulting Engineer.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.541, this Title V Operating Permit revision is to modify and clarify various RACT determinations made by the Department for the Dominion Leidy facility on June 15, 1999.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.91--129.95, the Department has made a preliminary determination to approve an amendment of a previously submitted RACT plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for various air contamination sources at the Dominion Transmission Leidy facility.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the amendment of the RACT approval for the facility which are intended to comply with current regulations.
The preliminary RACT determination, if finally approved, will result in the revision of Title V Operating Permit 18-00006 and will be submitted to the EPA as a revision to the SIP.
The following is a summary of the preliminary RACT determination which the Department proposes to incorporate into Title V Operating Permit 18-00006, as a revision to that permit, for three 40 million Btu per hour boilers, four 6.5 million Btu per hour salt bath heaters, a 0.07 million Btu per hour boiler, two hot water heaters and two space heaters:
1. Respective sources shall only be fired on natural gas.
2. Respective sources shall be maintained and operated in accordance with manufacturer's specifications and good air pollution control practices. This requirement shall be considered as RACT for the VOC emissions from the respective sources as well as for the NOx emissions.
3. The VOC emissions from each of the three 40 million Btu per hour boilers shall not exceed 0.946 ton in any 12 consecutive month period.
4. An annual tune-up shall be performed on each of the 40 million Btu per hour boilers.
5. Records shall be maintained of the amount of natural gas burned in each of the 40 million Btu per hour boilers each month as well as the dates and results of each tune-up performed on any of the respective three boilers.
A public hearing will be held for the purpose of receiving comments on the proposed Title V operating permit revision, RACT revision and SIP revision. The hearing will be held on May 8, 2003, at 1 p.m. at the Department's Northcentral Regional Office, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA. The public is invited to comment on the proposal. Persons interested in commenting are invited to appear at the public hearing.
Persons wishing to present testimony at the hearing should contact Daniel Spadoni at (570) 327-3659 at least 1 week in advance of the hearing to reserve a time to present testimony.
