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.

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.

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.

Approval of a Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT II) plan for American Craft Brewery LLC located in Upper Macungie Township, Lehigh County.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.96—129.100, the Department of Environmental Protection has made a preliminary determination to approve a RACT II plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for their beer, FMB and hard cider manufacturing and packaging facility located in Upper Macungie Township, Lehigh County.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the amended RACT II approval for the facility, which are intended to satisfy the requirements for the 1997 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) and the 2008 NAAQS for ozone.
The proposed amendments to the RACT II determination, if finally approved, will be incorporated into a revised operating permit (39-00006) for the facility. The relevant RACT II requirements will be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania's State Implementation Plan and will remain in effect until replaced pursuant to 40 CFR 51 and approval by the EPA. Requirements that are not part of the RACT II determination will be excluded from the SIP submittal.
The following is a summary of the proposed amendments to the RACT II determination for this operation that will be submitted to the EPA as a SIP revision:
Source New RACT Limit Proposed for VOC emissions Fermentation,
Source Id 121VOC—3.53 tons/year based on 12 month rolling average.
