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, 303, 304 and 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 any 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, or 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 site(s) identified below, 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 below. During this comment period the municipality may request that the person identified below, 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, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department of Environmental Protection Regional Office under 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 listed.

AIR QUALITY NOTICE OF PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) 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 DEP, 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.
Notice is hereby given that DEP has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.
Copies of these 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 the proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit must indicate their interest to the DEP 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 DEP 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. Any comments or protests filed with DEP 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 DEP 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 below. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

49-00047A: Furman Foods, Inc. (PO Box 500, 770 Cannery Road, Northumberland PA 17857-0500) for construction of an anaerobic digester that will handle maximum 0.85 MGD of wastewater from the plant's process in order to reduce the volume of wastewater sent to the irrigation field. Digester construction will also expand the current on-site treatment capabilities and further process additional wastewater from projected business growth. Further processing is also required for nutrient reduction as part of the Chesapeake Bay Tributary Strategy. Furman Foods also propose to install a flare and engine that will respectively control and combust biogas generated from the digester. The proposed engine will be a nominal 225 kW; bio-gas-fired engine-generator set to produce electricity at the wastewater treatment plant located on-site at the plant in Point Township, Northumberland County. A new scrubber will scrub the biogas sent to the engine to remove hydrogen sulfide. The scrubber media will be iron sponge (wood chip impregnated with iron oxide).
The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information submitted by Furman Foods, Inc. indicates that the air contamination sources to be constructed will comply with applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources including the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code Section 127.1 and 127.12. Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue a plan approval for the proposed construction described in the previous paragraph.
The emissions (PTEs) from the digester will not exceed on a 12-consecutive month period basis; 3 tpy of nitrogen oxides, 15 tons of carbon monoxide, and 35 tons of sulfur dioxide using the flare for biogas destruction throughout the entire 12-consecutive month period and based on 8760 hours of operation. During normal operation, the engine will combust most (> 70%) of the biogas from the digester. The PTEs during normal operation from the engine are approximately equal to 3.4 tpy of nitrogen oxides, 1.7 tons of carbon monoxide, 0.1 tons of sulfur dioxide, 0.7 tpy of VOC as non-methane hydrocarbons, and 0.7 tpy of formaldehyde. To demonstrate compliance with ton per 12 CMP emissions limitations from the engines, Furman Foods will be required to conduct EPA reference method testing on the engine's exhaust for nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, and formaldehyde. Testing will measure the average emissions rate over at least three (3), 1-hour periods to assure the rates do not exceed the following guaranteed rates: nitrogen oxides—1.0 g/Bhp-hr, carbon monoxide—0.5 g/Bhp-hr, volatile organic compound—0.2 g/Bhp-hr, and formaldehyde—0.07 g/Bhp-hr.
In addition to the emission limitations above, the following is a summary of the types of conditions the Department intends to place in Plan Approval 49-00047A to ensure compliance with applicable Federal and State regulatory requirements including the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code Sections 127.1 and 127.12.
Annual testing on the engine for NOx and CO.
Monitoring requirement of the H2S from the outlet of the scrubber.
Monitoring requirements of the pilot flame of the flare and temperature of the combustion zone in the flare.
Monitoring requirement of the engine's catalyst inlet temperature.
Monitoring requirements of monthly engine and flare run-time hours.Work practice requirements to construct and operate the engine (and catalyst), scrubber, and flare in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and good air pollution control practices.
Work practice requirements to operate the flare at minimum combustion zone temperature equal to 1400 Fahrenheit and retention time equal to 0.3 seconds.Recordkeeping of the engine and flare parameters.
A copy of the plan approval application and the Department's review is available for public review between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the Department's Northcentral Regional Office, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701.

COAL AND NONCOAL MINING
ACTIVITY APPLICATIONSApplications under the Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1396.1—1396.31); the Noncoal Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 3301—3326); the Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001); the Coal Refuse Disposal Act (52 P. S. §§ 30.51—30.66); the Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1406.1—1406.21). Mining activity permits issued in response to such applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4015); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1—693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101—6018.1003).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department). A copy of the application is available for inspection at the District Mining Office indicated above each application. Notices of requests for 401 Water Quality Certifications are included in individual application notices, as noted.
Written comments or objections, or requests for an informal conference, or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application may be submitted by any person or any officer or head of any federal, state or local government agency or authority to the Department at the address of the District Mining Office indicated above each application within 30 days of this publication, or within 30 days after the last publication of the applicant's newspaper advertisement, as provided by 25 Pa. Code §§ 77.121—123 and 86.31—34 (relating to public notices of filing of permit applications, opportunity for comment, and informal conferences).
Written comments or objections related to a mining permit application should contain the name, address and telephone number of persons submitting comments or objections; application number; and a statement of sufficient detail to inform the Department on the basis of comment or objection and relevant facts upon which it is based.
Requests for an informal conference, or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application, as provided by 25 Pa. Code § 77.123 (relating to public hearing-informal conferences) or § 86.34 (relating to informal conferences), must contain the name, address and telephone number of the requestor; the application number; a brief summary of the issues to be raised by the requestor at the conference; and a statement whether the requestor desires to have the conference conducted in the locality of the proposed mining activities.
Where a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) number is listed, the mining activity permit application was accompanied by an application for an individual NPDES permit. The Department has made a tentative determination to issue the NPDES permit in conjunction with the mining activity permit, but the issuance of the NPDES permit is contingent upon the approval of the associated mining activity permit.
For coal mining activities, NPDES permits, when issued, will contain effluent limits that do not exceed the technology-based effluent limitations. The proposed limits are listed in Table 1.
For noncoal mining activities, the proposed limits are found in Table 2 below. Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in the coal fields) may require additional effluent limits. If additional effluent limits are needed for an NPDES permit associated with a noncoal mining permit, then the permit description below specifies the parameters. The limits will be in the ranges specified in Table 1.
More restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume, or restrictions on the extent of mining that may occur, will be incorporated into an NPDES permit when necessary for compliance with water quality standards and antidegradation requirements (in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 through 96).
The procedures for determining the final effluent limits, using a mass-balance equation or model, are found in Technical Guidance Document 362-0600-001, NPDES Program Implementation-Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Concerning Water Quality Management, NPDES Program Implementation, and Related Matters. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Load(s) (TMDLs).
Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES permit application should submit a statement to the Department at the address of the District Mining Office indicated above each application within 30 days of this public notice. Comments received within the comment period will be considered in the final determinations regarding the NPDES permit applications. Comments must include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.
The Department will also accept requests or petitions for a public hearing on NPDES permit applications, as provided in 25 Pa. Code § 92.61. The request or petition for a public hearing shall be filed within 30 days of this public notice and shall contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request, and shall state the reasons why a hearing is warranted. A public hearing may be held if the Department considers the public interest significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing on the NPDES permit application will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. In the case where a public hearing is held, the Department will consider comments from the public hearing in the final determination on the NPDES permit application.

Code Chapter 92. This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapter 92 and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act.
Persons aggrieved by any action may appeal under section 517 of Act 38, section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P.

The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483.

For individuals who wish to challenge an action, appeals 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 pro bono representation. Call the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP
UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988Cohen Scrapyard,
Bradford County, PennsylvaniaThe Department of Environmental Protection (''DEP''), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, Act of October 18, 1988, P. L. 756, No. 108, as amended, 35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305 (''HSCA''), has entered into a Consent Order and Agreement for Inability to Pay Settlement with Norman Cohen, Charlotte Cohen, and Shari Cohen, who has power of attorney (''Cohen'').
The DEP and Cohen have agreed to a settlement whereby Cohen will reimburse the DEP for up to $130,000.00 in HSCA Funds spent by the DEP. The HSCA Funds were spent towards the remediation of an automobile junkyard Cohen had owned and operated, which was closed in approximately 1998. The property is identified as Tax Parcel No. 09-020-10-00 (''Site'').
Inspections conducted by the Department in 1994 noted numerous violations such as antifreeze draining to the ground surface, waste tires, stained soils and stressed vegetation, batteries, and 55-gallon drums containing waste paint. Subsequent negotiations with Cohen, a November 27, 2000 Administrative Order, and a court order from Commonwealth Court resulting from a petition to enforce the administrative order, as well as other court proceedings, did not accomplish the necessary waste removal and site characterization activities. During the summer of 2003, DEP used HSCA funds to retain the services of Baker Environmental, Inc., a consultant, to remove containerized wastes from the Site and to perform initial soil characterization activities. Four above-ground storage tanks, two underground storage tanks and forty-three containers of petroleum products and waste, paints, roof coatings, antifreeze and hydraulic oils were removed. In May 2004, the DEP's mobile lab was on the Site to further characterize the extent of the soil contamination. The DEP has spent approximately $131,593.98 of HSCA Funds towards assessment and remedial activity at the Site.
Financial information provided by Cohen, which Cohen has certified to be true, has documented Cohen's financial inability to complete the work. The settlement includes a mortgage on the Cohen home located at 202 Lincoln Street, Sayre, PA 18840, Tax Parcel No. 33-030.22-334-000-000 (''Home''). The proceeds from the sale of the Home shall go to DEP after Cohens have not lived in the Home for a twenty-four consecutive month period, and there is no good faith belief that neither Charlotte Cohen nor Norman Cohen will be able to return to live in the Home. Cohen shall pay a minimum of $77,300.00 and up to $130,000.00 to reimburse DEP. If the sale of the Home is for less than $130,000, and the sales agreement has been approved by DEP, the mortgage will be satisfied in full.
Copies of the full agreement are in the hands of PA DEP, Office of Chief Counsel, Attention: Amy Ershler, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701, (570) 321-6568, and Melissa Keeffe, DeSisti & Keeffe, 325 North Keystone Avenue, Sayre, PA, 18840, telephone: (570) 888-2352, and may be reviewed by any interested party on request during normal business hours.
DEP shall receive and consider comments relating to the settlement for 60 days from the date of publication of this notice. Comments should be sent to the address noted above for the Office of Chief Counsel, PA DEP. DEP reserves the right to withdraw from the settlement if comments received disclose facts or considerations not previously known to DEP which indicate that the settlement is inappropriate, improper, or not in the public interest. At the conclusion of the 60 day comment period, if there are comments, then DEP shall meet with the Cohens to address the public comments. If there are not adverse comments, within two weeks after the mortgage has been recorded, DEP will request that Commonwealth Court mark the case filed to 164 M.D. 2001, of DEP v. Cohen as settled and discontinued.
