[Continued from previous Web Page] LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 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 after 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

TPY (12- month rolling sum)
PM10 74.22 SOx 148.52 NOx 129.57 CO 112.46 TSP 81.31 H2SO4 16.86 The facility is not subject to the prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter D so long as the permittee complies with the previous emission limitations from the facility and conditions for the PAL specified in this Plan Approval. Any increase in the emissions above this PAL will subject the facility to the PSD requirements. The facility must comply with requirements listed in 40 CFR 52.21(aa).
14. This Plan Approval establishes an FEEC for emissions of NOx from all sources at the facility in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.448.
15. The total actual emissions from sources at the facility shall not exceed the FEEC of 81.2 tpy of NOx on a 12-month rolling sum. Any change that would result in an increase over the FEEC would be subject to the NSR requirements specified in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter E.
16. The company shall show that the sum of the monthly emissions from each source including emissions from start-up, shutdowns and malfunctions under the PAL and FEEC for the previous 12 consecutive months is less than the PAL or FEEC (a 12-month sum, rolled monthly) respectively. To determine the compliance with the PAL or FEEC, the calculated pollutants emissions for the month shall be added to the previous 11 months calculated pollutant s emissions for the total facility.
17. The facility is not subject to the major NSR requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter E for NOx emissions so long as the permittee complies with the terms and conditions specified for the FEEC in this Plan Approval. Any increase in NOx emissions above this FEEC will subject the facility to the major NSR requirements.
18. The issuance of this Plan Approval does not prevent the future adoption by the Department of any rules, regulations or standards, or the issuance of orders necessary to comply with the requirements of the Federal Clean Air Act or the Air Pollution Control Act or to achieve or maintain ambient air quality standards. The issuance of this Plan Approval shall not be construed to limit the Department's enforcement authority.
19. In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.448(a) and (d)(1), the permittee shall notify the Department in writing at least 7 days prior to making any changes or modifications to sources at the facility, which result in an emission trade. This 7-day notice requirement applies to any changes or modifications not subject the facility to major NSR requirements under Title I of the Federal Clean Air Act. In addition to the written notification requirements in 25 Pa. Code § 127.448(b), the notice shall also indicate how the proposed emission increases and decreases will comply with the terms and conditions in the plan approval.
20. The permittee may not construct or modify a new source at the facility unless the ''new source,'' as defined in 25 Pa. Code § 121.1, meets the best available technology requirements established by the Department under section 6.6(c) of the Air Pollution Control Act and 25 Pa. Code § 127.11.
21. As long as the total potential VOC emissions from all VOC-emitting sources at the facility do not exceed 49.9 tons per calendar year, the facility will not be a major VOC emitting facility as defined by 25 Pa. Code § 121.1 and will not be subject to 25 Pa. Code § 127.201(c). If total potential VOC emissions exceed 49.9 tpy, applicability of nonattainment new source review for any subsequent modification or new source will be evaluated according to 25 Pa. Code § 127.203(b)(1)(ii).
22. At no time (during or after the PAL and FEEC effective period) are emissions reductions of a PAL and FEEC pollutant, which occur during the PAL and FEEC effective period, creditable as decreases for purposes of offsets unless the level of the PAL and FEEC are reduced by the amount of emissions reductions and the reductions would be creditable in the absence of the PAL and FEEC.
Testing Requirements
23. If at any time the Department has cause to believe that air contaminant emissions from the aforementioned sources may be in excess of the limitations specified in, or established under, any applicable regulation in 25 Pa. Code Article III, the company shall be required to conduct whatever tests are deemed necessary by the Department to determine the actual emission rates. Testing shall be conducted in accordance with the revisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 139, where applicable, and in accordance with any restrictions or limitations established by the Department at the time as it notifies the company that testing is required.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a site-specific standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.
For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after 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.
