Southeast Region: Air Quality Program, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401, Janine Tulloch-Reid, Facilities Permitting Chief, (484) 250-5920.
23-00003: ConocoPhillips (4101 Post Road, Trainer, PA 19061) for renewal of the Title V Operating Permit in Trainer Borough, Delaware County. The initial permit was issued on February 24, 2003. The facility is a petroleum refinery. As a result of potential emissions of NOx, SOx, VOC, CO and PM, the facility is a major stationary source as defined in Title I, Part D of the Clean Air Act Amendments, and is therefore subject to the Title V permitting requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G. The proposed Title V Operating Permit Renewal does not reflect any change in air emissions from the facility. The renewal contains all applicable requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting. The operation is subject to Compliance Assurance Monitoring under 40 CFR Part 64 and NSPS regulations. The renewal permit contains all applicable requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting

14-00037: Spectrum Control, Inc. (1900 West College Avenue, State College, PA 16801) for the operation of a ceramic capacitor manufacturing facility in Ferguson Township, Centre County.
The facility incorporates various material milling, mixing, pressing, spraying, drying, firing, assembly and the like operations as well as 48 natural gas-fired space heaters (with a total heat input of 18.59 mmBtu/hr), two batch vapor degreasers, a solvent dip tank and a 32.5 brake horsepower propane-fired emergency generator. The PM/PM10 emissions from a spray dryer, eight spray machines, two ink machines, a hammermill and four sifters are controlled by four cartridge collectors, only two of which exhaust to the outdoor atmosphere. The VOC and VHAP emissions from eight spray machines and two ink machines are controlled by a regenerative thermal oxidizer. The VOC emissions and VHAP emissions from one of the facility's two batch vapor degreasers are controlled by a refrigerated freeboard chiller. The PM/PM10 emissions from a spray booth incorporated in the facility's assembly operations are controlled by panel filters.
The air contaminant emissions from the facility are not expected to exceed 24.38 tons of VOCs, 12.48 tons of PM/PM10, 10.94 tons of NOx, 7.21 tons of CO, 5.49 tons of HAPs and .05 ton of SOx per year.
