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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Northcentral Region: Air Quality Program, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701, David Aldenderfer, Program Manager, (570) 327-3637.
19-00023A: Impress USA, Inc. (6670 Low Street, Bloomsburg, PA 17815) for modification of two can side stripe coating operations in South Centre Township, Columbia County. The respective facility is not a major (Title V) facility for any air contaminant.
The proposed modification to the first side stripe coating operation (Fael Line No. 1) is the removal of a catalytic fume incinerator previously used to control the VOC emissions from the line due to the fact that lower VOC-content coatings will now be used on the line. Due to an increased usage of coating, however, the VOC emissions from this line, including the VOC emissions resulting from the use of cleanup solvents and lubricants on the line, will increase from a maximum of approximately 2.37 tons per year to a maximum of 3.42 tons per year (of which up to .64 ton per year are expected to also be volatile HAPs).
The proposed modifications to the second side stripe coating operation (Soudronic Line No. 2) are an increase in the amount of VOCs emitted from the line so that the emissions will exceed the 2.5 ton per year limitation which previously existed for the line and the use of VOC-containing solvent to perform cleanup activities on the line instead of water. The maximum VOCs emissions from the respective line, including the VOC emissions resulting from the use of cleanup solvents and lubricants on the line, are now expected to be 2.90 tons per year (of which up to .54 ton per year are expected to also be volatile HAPs).
Impress USA, Inc. also proposed the construction of nine videojet ink marking systems which the Department has determined are exempt from plan approval provided the VOC emissions from each of three groups of ink marking systems (systems 1--5, systems 6--8 and system 9) are less than 2.7 tons per year and the total combined volatile HAP emissions from each of the three groups are no greater than 1.0 ton per year.
The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information provided by Impress USA, Inc. indicates that the two modified side stripe coating operations should comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the best BAT requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 129.52. Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue plan approval for the proposed modifications.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. Conditions contained in State-only Operating Permit 19-00023 remain in effect unless amended or superseded by a condition contained herein.

2. The VOC/volatile HAP emissions from Fael Line No.1 do not need to be controlled by a catalytic fume incinerator.
3. The VOC and volatile HAP emissions from Fael Line No. 1, including the VOC and volatile HAP emissions resulting from the use of cleanup solvents and lubricants on the respective line, shall not exceed 3.42 and .64 ton, respectively, in any 12-consecutive month period.
4. The VOC and volatile HAP emissions from Soudronic Line No. 2, including the VOC and volatile HAP emissions resulting from the use of cleanup solvents and lubricants on the respective line, shall not exceed 2.90 and .54 tons, respectively, in any 12-consecutive month period.
5. The VOC and volatile HAP contents of the coating used on the Fael Line No. 1 and Soudronic Line No. 2 shall not exceed 1.30 and .25 pound per gallon of coating, respectively.
6. No more than a combined total of 40 gallons of cleanup solvent shall be used on Fael Line No. 1 and Soudronic Line No. 2 in any 12-consecutive month period, of which no more than 20 gallons shall contain any volatile HAPs.
7. No more than 200 gallons of lubricant shall be used on Fael Line No. 1 and Sudronic Line No. 2 in any 12-consecutive month period and no lubricant used shall contain any volatile HAPs.
8. The permittee shall maintain records of the identity, amount, VOC content, volatile HAP content, acetone content and solids content of each coating used on Fael Line No. 1 as well as the identity, amount, VOC content, volatile HAP content and acetone content of each cleanup solvent and each lubricant used on Fael Line No. 1.
9. The permittee shall maintain records of the identity, amount, VOC content, volatile HAP content, acetone content and solids content of each coating used on Soudronic Line No. 2, as well as the identity, amount, VOC content, volatile HAP content and acetone content of each cleanup solvent and each lubricant used on Soudronic Line No. 2.
10. The VOC emissions from videojet ink marking systems one--five shall not equal or exceed 2.7 tons in any 12-consecutive month period and the combined volatile HAP emissions shall not exceed 1.0 ton in any 12-consecutive month period.

[Continued from previous Web Page] PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY (PWS) PERMITS The Department of Environmental Protection has taken the following actions on applications received under the Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act (35 P. S. §§ 721.1--721.17) for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. 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. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
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 free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

Nitrate-nitrogen concentrations in the groundwater tend to increase with time and can very from year to year depending on nutrient activities at the site. The groundwater needs to be resampled and the calculations that determine lot sizes are to be based on these new sample results, and not historical groundwater values.
HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF
OCTOBER 18, 1988Notice of Settlement Under HSCA and Cercla CVS Inc., Haverford Township, Delaware County. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675), has entered into a Prospective Purchaser Agreement (Agreement) with Havertown CVS, Inc., One CVS Drive, Woonsocket, RI, regarding the Havertown PCP Site.
The Havertown PCP Site is a National Priority List Site under CERCLA, which is located along Eagle Road in Havertown, PA, approximately 1 mile north of Route 3 (West Chester Pike). The Site consists of soils and groundwater contamination associated with the former operation of a wood processing facility. Significant groundwater contamination at the Site has migrated under Eagle Road and beneath the former location of the Philadelphia Gum Corporation (Philadelphia Gum Property) where it enters a storm sewer draining into Naylor's Run, a water of the Commonwealth. In addition to other remedial action, the USEPA, in conjunction with the Department, has implemented a groundwater treatment system for contaminated groundwater at the Site.
Havertown CVS, Inc. intends to acquire a ground lease for a portion of the Philadelphia Gum Property and intends to construct and operate a CVS business on property at 891 Eagle Road, Havertown, PA. Other than potential liability associated with its entry into the ground lease, Havertown CVS, Inc. has asserted, and the Department has no information to indicate otherwise, that it neither caused, contributed to, nor is otherwise liable for any contamination at the Havertown PCP Site. Under the terms of the Agreement with the Department, Havertown CVS, Inc. agrees: (1) to contribute towards the Department's response costs for the Havertown PCP Site; (2) not to exacerbate any existing contamination at the Site; and (3) to provide access and right of entry to the Department for future performance of any potential response actions related to the Havertown PCP Site in exchange for a covenant not to sue and contribution protection from the Commonwealth.
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113). The Agreement may be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Offices at 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401 by contacting either George Horvat at (484) 250-5717 or Anderson Lee Hartzell at (484) 250-5866. A public comment period on the Agreement will extend for a period of 60 days from the date of publication of this Notice. Interested persons may submit written comments regarding the PPA to the Department by submitting them to George Horvat at the above address.

Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with the applicable provisions of 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, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. 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. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
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 free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Certified Emission Reduction Credits in the Commonwealth's ERC Registry Emission reduction credits (ERCs) are surplus, permanent, quantified and Federally enforceable emission reductions used to offset emission increases of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the following criteria pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), lead (Pb), oxides of sulfur (SOx), particulate matter (PM), PM-10 and PM-10 precursors.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) maintains an ERC registry in accordance with the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 127.209. The ERC registry system provides for the tracking of the creation, transfer and use of ERCs. Prior to registration of the credits, ERC Registry Applications are reviewed and approved by the Department to confirm that the ERCs meet the requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206--208. Registration of the credits in the ERC registry system constitutes certification that the ERCs satisfy applicable requirements and that the credits are available for use. The following registered, and certified ERCs in the ERC Registry are currently available for use as follows:
(1) To satisfy new source review (NSR) emission offset ratio requirements;
(2) To ''net-out'' of NSR at ERC-generating facilities;
(3) To sell or trade the ERCs for use as emission offsets at new or modified facilities.
The certified ERCs shown below, expressed in tons per year (tpy), satisfy the applicable ERC requirements contained in 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.206--127.208. ERCs created from the curtailment or shutdown of a source or facility expires for use as offsets 10 years after the emission reduction occurs. ERCs generated by the over control of emissions by an existing facility do not expire for use as offsets. However, credits in the registry that are not used in a plan approval will be discounted if new air quality requirements are adopted by the Department or United States Environmental Protection Agency.
For additional information concerning this listing of certified ERCs, contact the Bureau of Air Quality, Division of Permits, Department of Environmental Protection, 12th Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, P. O. Box 8468, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8468, (717) 787-4325.

No. PA0065137The Commonwealth, Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will hold a joint public hearing to accept comments on Solid Waste Management Permit Application No.101679 and Water Quality NPDES Permit Application No. PA0065137.
The Waste Management Permit Application is for the construction and operation of the proposed construction and demolition waste landfill site called Blythe Recycling and Demolition Site (BRADS) in Blythe Township, Schuylkill County, and involves the review of the environmental assessment (harms/benefits balancing analysis). The NPDES Permit Application is for the discharge to Silver Creek of 15,000 gallons per day of treated industrial waste described as leachate and 300 gallons per day of treated sanitary waste from the BRADS site. The hearing is in response to the applications submitted to the Department by the Blythe Township Board of Supervisors. Both applications are currently under review. A draft permit has been developed for the NPDES application.
The joint public hearing will be conducted on Tuesday December 5, 2006, at 7 p.m. in the auditorium of the D.H. H. Lengel Middle School, 1541 West Laurel Boulevard, Pottsville, PA.
The Department requests that individuals wishing to testify at the hearing submit a written notice of intent to Mark Carmon, Community Relations Coordinator, Attn: BRADS Landfill Public Hearing, Department of Environmental Protection, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790. The Department will accept notices up to the day of the hearing.
The written notice should include the person's name, address, telephone number and a brief statement as to the nature (oral or written) of his or her presentation. The Department requests that individuals limit their testimony to 10 minutes so that all individuals have the opportunity to testify. Written copies of oral testimony are requested. Relinquishing of time to others will not be allowed. Individuals attending the hearing will have the opportunity to testify if they so desire; however, individuals who pre-register to testify will be given priority on the agenda. Persons unable to attend the hearing may submit written statement/comments to the Department on or before December 20, 2006.
Persons with a disability who wish to testify and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation should contact Christine Domashinski, (570) 826-2511 or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department can meet their needs.
Both permit applications and the NPDES draft permit are available for review at the Department's Northeast Regional Office in Wilkes-Barre. Contact the Records Management Section at (570) 826-2511 to schedule an appointment to review the application.
For further information, contact Mark Carmon, Northeast Regional Office, (570) 826-2511.
Cambria District Mining Office: 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931, (814) 472-1900.
Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek Watersheds in Somerset and Cambria Counties.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will hold a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek watersheds in Somerset and Cambria Counties. The meeting will be held on November 8, 2006, beginning at 10 a.m. at the Cambia District Mining Office, 286 Industrial Park Road), in Cambria Township, Cambria County, PA. Individuals who wish to make a presentation should contact Miles Baird, Cambria District Mining Office at (814) 472-1900 no later than 4 p.m. on November 7. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek watersheds, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
The proposed TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek Watersheds was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Several stream segments in the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek Watersheds have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998, 2002, and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) list due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:
Stream Code Stream Name Miles Degraded 45223 Paint Creek 0.7 45259 UNT Paint Creek 0.5 45260 Babcock Creek 3.5 45223 Paint Creek 1.57 45259 UNT Paint Creek 0.46 45260 Babcock 3.5 45260 Babcock Creek, Paint Creek 1.0 45223 Paint Creek 1.6 45223 Paint Creek 4.1 45223 Paint Creek 3.0 45223 Paint Creek 4.7 45223 Paint Creek 4.7 45223 Paint Creek 0.4 45223 Paint Creek 3.0 45223 Paint Creek 4.1 45259 UNT Paint Creek 0.5 45262 UNT Paint Creek 1.1 45263 UNT Paint Creek 0.5 The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron, manganese and acidity), pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Parameter Criterion value Total Recoverable/ (mg/l) Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 30 day average; Total Recoverable Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0
NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was mined for coal in the 1900s. The effects of this mining are still present.
The proposed TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria was exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the proposed TMDL. The proposed TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek watersheds sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. Field data collected during 2002--2005 was used to develop the TMDL. The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department.
The Department will accept written comments on the proposed TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek watersheds. Written comments must be postmarked by December 8, 2006 and sent to Miles Baird, Department of Environmental Protection, Cambria District Mining Office, 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931, by fax to (814) 472-1898 or mbaird@state.pa.us.
To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, or to obtain directions to the meeting location, contact Miles Baird at (814) 472-1900, mbaird@ state.pa.us.
The proposed TMDL for the Babcock Creek and Paint Creek watersheds can be accessed through the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us. (DEP Keyword: TMDL). Persons with a disability who require accommodations to attend this meeting should contact the Department at (814) 472-1900 or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD users) or (800) 654-5988 (voice users) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

The meeting will be held on November 8, 2006, beginning at 10 a.m. at the Cambria District Mining Office, in Cambria Township, Cambria County, PA. Individuals who wish to make a presentation should contact John Conrad, Cambria District Mining Office at (814) 472-1900 no later than 4 p.m. on November 7, 2006. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL for the Sulphur Creek and Otto Run watersheds, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
The proposed TMDL for the Sulphur Creek and Otto Creek Watersheds was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Several stream segments in the Sulphur Creek and Otto Run Watersheds have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998, 2002 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) list due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:
Stream Code Stream Name Miles Degraded 45901 Otto Run 1.5 45902 Sulphur Creek 1.0 45901 Otto Run 1.5 45902 Sulphur Creek 2.06 45901 Otto Run 1.6 45902 Sulphur Creek 7.3 45901 Otto Run 1.6 45902 Sulphur Creek 4.0 45902 Sulphur Creek 0.6 45903 UNT 45903 Sulphur Creek 0.9 45904 UNT 45904 Sulphur Creek 0.5 45905 UNT 45905 Sulphur Creek 0.5 45906 UNT 45906 Sulphur Creek 0.8 The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron, manganese and acidity), pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Parameter Criterion value Total Recoverable/ (mg/l) Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 30 day average; Total Recoverable Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0
NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was mined for coal in the 1900s. The effects of this mining are still present.
The proposed TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99 percent of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria was exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the proposed TMDL. The proposed TMDL for the Sulphur Creek and Otto Run watersheds sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. Field data collected during 2001--2003 was used to develop the TMDL. The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department.
The Department will accept written comments on the proposed TMDL for the Sulphur Creek and Otto Run watersheds. Written comments must be postmarked by December 8, 2006 and sent to John Conrad, Department of Environmental Protection, Cambria District Mining Office, 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931 by fax to (814) 472-1898 or jconrad@state.pa.us.
To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, or to obtain directions to the meeting location, contact John Conrad at (814) 472-1900, jconrad@state.pa.us.
