PREAMBLE 1


Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Sections 302--305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (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. Persons intending to use the Background Standard, Statewide Health Standard, the Site-Specific Standard or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area must 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, a combination of the cleanup standards or who 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 any 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 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. 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 before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS

NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.

   The Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.

   Copies of the applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional office identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.

   Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate their interest to the Department regional office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a proposed plan approval or operating permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Comments or protests filed with the Department regional offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the Plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts which serve as the basis for the objections. If the Department schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.

   Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the regional office identified before the application. TDD users should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

   49-00011B: Butter Krust Baking Company, Inc. (249 North Eleventh Street, Sunbury, PA 17801) for construction and operation of a bread oven at their Sunbury Plant in the City of Sunbury, Northumberland County. The plan approval application is also for the installation and operation of a catalytic oxidizer (CATOX) to control the air contaminant emissions from the bread oven. The bread oven is a roll line that will produce up to 12,000 rolls/loaves per hour. The facility will remain as a synthetic minor facility.

   The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information provided by Butter Krust Baking Company, Inc. indicates that the proposed source and control device will comply with all air quality requirements, including the BAT requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12, pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants. Based on this finding, the Department intends to issue a plan approval for the proposed construction, installation and temporary operation. Additionally, if the Department determines that the proposed source and the air cleaning device are operating in compliance with the plan approval conditions, the conditions established in the plan approval will be incorporated into the operating permit by means of an administrative amendment under 25 Pa. Code § 127.450. The following is a summary of the conditions that the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements.

The permittee shall continuously monitor the inlet and outlet temperature of the CATOX during the duration of the stack test. Additionally, the pressure drop across the catalytic bed shall be continuously recorded during the test. The testing is to be performed using Environmental Protection Agency reference method test procedures acceptable to the Department.

The temperature recordings shall be made by means of a charter recorder or similar device, as approved by the Department. The records shall include the dates and times of all data that is generated by the inlet and outlet temperature monitor recording system associated with the CATOX. The permittee shall keep records of the pressure drop across the catalytic bed of the CATOX associated with the bread oven on at least a daily basis. These records shall be retained for a minimum of 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.

   18.  The permittee shall keep records of the amount of natural gas combustion in the bread oven on a monthly basis. The permittee shall keep records of the amount of natural gas combustion in the CATOX associated with the bread oven on a monthly basis. These records shall be retained for a minimum of 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.

   19.  The permittee shall submit reports to the Department on a semi-annual basis that include the supporting calculations to verify compliance with the VOC emissions limitations for the CATOX associated with the bread oven in any 12-consecutive month period. The semi-annual reports shall be submitted to the Department no later than March 1 (for January 1 through December 31 of the previous year) and September 1 (for July 1 of the previous year through June 30 of the current year).

   20.  Under BAT requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12, the permittee shall not operate the bread oven without the simultaneous operation of the CATOX. The VOC emissions from the bread oven shall be controlled by the CATOX.
