55-00002D: The Selinsgrove Center owned and operated by PA Department of Public Welfare (1000 Route 522, Selinsgrove, PA 17870) has submitted a plan approval application to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) for their proposal to comply with the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers Area Sources as codified in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ, also known as the Area Source Boiler MACT. On January 16, 2014, the facility received the Department's approval for extension of Subpart JJJJJ compliance deadline to March 21, 2015. The facility operates existing boilers that are fired on coal, and the boilers are considered as affected sources in the Area Source Boiler MACT. On October 6, 2014, the facility submitted a plan approval application and proposed to restrict the coal heat input of each boiler.
The Department reviewed the plan approval application and supplementary information submitted by the Selinsgrove Center facility located in Penn Township, Snyder County, and the facility proposal designates each of the coal boilers as a limited-use boiler, in accordance with the applicable requirements pertaining to limited-use boiler as specified in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ. The Selinsgrove Center facility is a Title V facility. If the Department determines that the facility has satisfied the required evaluation for Area Source Boiler MACT compliance, the requirements of 55-00002D will be incorporated into Title V Operating Permit 55-00002 pursuant to the administrative amendment provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 127.450. Based on these findings, the Department intends to issue a plan approval to restrict the operation of the coal boilers at the facility such that, each of the boilers will be required to be operated as a limited-use boiler by the Area Source Boiler MACT. Upon issuance, the plan approval will serve as the federally enforceable permit until the amended Title V operating permit is issued.
Pursuant to 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ, the plan approval source-level conditions include the provisions to operate each coal boiler at the facility, such that the annual capacity utilization of each does not exceed 10% of their maximum capacity utilization. Also, monitoring and recordkeeping of the coal ash content (% weight) and heat content (Btu/lb), as received, and the daily coal usage of each coal boiler were included in the plan approval conditions pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 127.511 and 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ. The monitoring and recordkeeping conditions are part of the continuous demonstration for compliance with the annual capacity utilization restrictions. The plan approval also requires the facility to report the status of compliance with the plan approval conditions including the supporting documentation, within 120 days from their March 21, 2015, Subpart JJJJJJ compliance deadline date. In addition, recordkeeping, reporting and work practice source-level conditions were included in the plan approval, to demonstrate compliance with the applicable boiler tune-up provisions from Subpart JJJJJJ. The facility is still required to comply with the conditions, including emissions restrictions, of Title V Operating Permit 55-00002.
All applicable Federal and State regulatory requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, and work practice conditions have been included in the plan approval, to demonstrate compliance with the applicable requirements including 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ.
All pertinent documents used in the evaluation of the application are available for public review during normal business hours at the Department's Northcentral Regional office, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701. Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling 570-327-3693.

03-00027E: GenOn Northeast Management Company (121 Champion Way, Suite 200, Canonsburg, PA 15317) Notice is hereby given in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44—127.46 that the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) intends to issue Air Quality Plan Approval: PA-03-00027E to allow the construction of a truck coal receiving area at the Keystone Generating Station located in Plumcreek Township, Armstrong County.
The truck coal receiving area will be to enhance the overall coal receiving and blending capabilities at Keystone, allowing up to 1,000,000 tons of coal to be delivered by truck. It will be located within the existing permitted area at Keystone adjacent to the existing rail coal receiving area and near the existing limited truck coal receiving area. New and modified air contamination sources include increases to plant roadway vehicle traffic, coal delivery by truck to feeders or storage zones, feeder conveyors, a new collection conveyor, extension of an existing conveyor, and miscellaneous associated transfer points. This plan approval does not authorize any increase to the permitted heat input to the electric generating units and there is no projected change in emissions from those units. Best available technology (BAT) for coal delivery by truck is delivery by covered trucks, paving of delivery roadways, and a roadway dust control plan which includes sweeping and watering as necessary. BAT for feeders and storage zones is partial enclosure by wind barriers and watering as necessary. BAT for conveyors and transfer points is partial enclosure with a minimum coal moisture content of 5% to full or underground enclosure.
This authorization is subject to state regulations including 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.1, 123.2, 123.31 and 123.41. These limitations are applicable facility-wide and already included in Keystone's Title V Operating Permit (TVOP). Plan approval conditions will include rolling 12-month limits on coal delivery by truck, work practice requirements consistent with the Department's BAT determinations, and associated recordkeeping requirements. Facility-wide reporting and monitoring requirements already included in Keystone's TVOP will encompass the new sources. Potential emissions from this project are calculated to be 8.56 tons of particulate matter (PM), 2.21 tons of particulate matter less than 10 microns (PM10), and 0.95 ton of particulate matter less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5) per year. Once compliance with the Plan Approval is demonstrated, the applicant will subsequently submit either a revision to its pending TVOP application or a TVOP administrative amendment application in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Subchapters F and G.
A person may oppose the proposed plan approval by filing a written protest with the DEP through Alan Binder, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA, 15222. Additional written comments may also be submitted. Each protest or set of written comments must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed Plan Approval (PA-03-00027E) and a concise statement of the objections to the plan approval issuance and the relevant facts upon which the objections are based.
All comments must be received prior to the close of business 30 days after the date of this publication.

25-1011A: Duskas Martin Funeral Homes & Crematory, Inc. (4216 Sterrettania Rd, Erie, PA 16506), the Department intends to issue a plan approval to for the continued operation of one human crematory in Millcreek Township, Erie County. Public notice is required for sources required to obtain a Plan Approval in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.44.
This plan approval application was submitted per the Department's instruction that crematories which open or plan to open their primary chamber's door during the cremation cycle could no longer use or obtain the GP-14 for authorization. Those crematories must be authorized by a plan approval or elect to no longer open the door during the cremation cycle in order to continue operating under GP-14 authorization. The applicant has elected to apply for a plan approval rather than prohibit the opening of their door which they feel is necessary for efficient and complete cremation cycles.
The crematory has been reviewed to evaluate its incorporation of BAT. The BAT contained in the GP-14 is still considered to be current BAT. This unit meets or exceeds each of the technologies or specifications identified in the GP-14; therefore, the use of this unit is considered to be meeting BAT for the construction of a crematory.
Emissions are estimated to be: less than 1.0 tpy of SOx, CO, NOx, particulate matter, VOC, and HAP (each).
The Plan Approval will contain testing, recordkeeping, emission restriction, reporting, and work practice requirements designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.44(e)(1), all the pertinent documents regarding this application (applications, review memos, and draft approvals) are also available for review from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Meadville Regional DEP office (Air Quality). Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling the DEP @ (814) 332-6340.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.44(e)(2), a 30-day comment period, from the date of publication, will exist for the submission of comments. Any person(s) wishing to provide DEP with additional information, which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of this permit, may submit the information to Regional Air Quality Program Manager, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335-3494 and must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed plan approval [25-1011A, Duskas Martin Funeral Home and Crematory] and a concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to the issuance of the permit.
A public hearing may be held, if the Department of Environmental Protection, in its discretion, decides that such a hearing is warranted based on the comments received. All persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper or the Pennsylvania Bulletin or by telephone, where DEP determines such notification is sufficient. Written comments or requests for a public hearing should be directed to Edward F. Orris, 230 Chestnut St., Meadville, PA 16335; Phone (814) 332-6636.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.45, a person may oppose the proposed plan approval by filing a written protest with the Department's Northwest Region.

MINING ACTIVITY NPDES DRAFT PERMITS This notice provides information about applications for a new, amended or renewed NPDES permits associated with mining activity (coal or noncoal) permits. The applications concern industrial waste (mining) discharges to surface water and discharges of stormwater associated with mining activities. This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92a and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing provisions of The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1251—1376).
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has prepared a draft NPDES permit and made a tentative determination to issue the NPDES permit in conjunction with the associated mining activity permit.
Effluent Limits for Coal Mining Activities
For coal mining activities, NPDES permits, when issued, will contain effluent limits that are the more stringent of technology-based (BAT) effluent limitations or Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBEL).
The BAT limits for coal mining activities, as provided in 40 CFR Part 434 and 25 Pa. Code Chapters 87—90 are as follows:
30-Day Daily Instantaneous Parameter Average Maximum Maximum Iron (Total) 3.0 mg/l 6.0 mg/l 7.0 mg/l Manganese (Total) 2.0 mg/l 4.0 mg/l 5.0 mg/l Suspended solids 35 mg/l 70 mg/l 90 mg/l pH* greater than 6.0; less than 9.0 Alkalinity greater than acidity* *The parameter is applicable at all times.
A settleable solids instantaneous maximum limit of 0.5 ml/l applies to: surface runoff (resulting from a precipitation event of less than or equal to a 10-year 24-hour event) from active mining areas; active areas disturbed by coal refuse disposal activities; mined areas backfilled and revegetated; and all other discharges and drainage (resulting from a precipitation event of greater than 1-year 24-hour to less than or equal to a 10-year 24-hour event) from coal refuse disposal piles. Similarly, modified BAT limits apply to iron, manganese and suspended solids in surface runoff, discharges and drainage resulting from these precipitation events and those of greater magnitude in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 87.102, 88.92, 88.187, 88.292, 89.52 and 90.102.
Exceptions to BAT effluent limits may be applicable in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 87.102, 88.92, 88.187, 88.292, 89.52 and 90.102.
Effluent Limits for Noncoal Mining Activities
The limits for noncoal mining activities as provided in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 77 are pH 6 to 9 and other parameters the Department may require.
Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in the coal fields) may require additional water quality based effluent limits. If additional effluent limits are needed for an NPDES permit associated with a noncoal mining permit, then the permit description specifies the parameters.
In addition to BAT or WQBEL limits, coal and noncoal NPDES permits establish effluent limitations in the form of implemented Best Management Practices (BMPs) identified in the associated Erosion and Sedimentation Plan, the Reclamation Plan and the NPDES permit application. These BMPs restrict the rates and quantities of associated pollutants from being discharged into surface waters in this Commonwealth.
More restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume or restrictions on the extent of mining that may occur are incorporated into an NPDES permit when necessary for compliance with water quality standards and antidegradation requirements (in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91—96).
The procedures for determining the final effluent limits, using a mass-balance equation or model, are found in Technical Guidance Document 563-2112-115, Developing National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permits for Mining Activities. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Load(s). Additional discharge limitations may apply in the event that unexpected discharges occur.
Discharge rates for surface mining activities are precipitation driven. Discharge rates for proposed discharges associated with underground mining are noted in the permit description.
Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES draft permit should submit a written statement to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each draft permit 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 § 92a.82(d). The request or petition for a public hearing shall be filed within 30 days of this public notice and contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request, and 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. When a public hearing is held, the Department will consider comments from the public hearing in the final determination on the NPDES permit application.

[Continued from previous Web Page] PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY PERMITS The Department 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 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. TDD users may contact the 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 to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.
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 document 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.

Provisions of Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the 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, will 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 reuse 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.

Mining Activity NPDES Permit Notice of Settlement Notice of Settlement of NPDES Permit Appeal pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 92a.88 New Stanton District Office: 131 Broadview Road, New Stanton, PA 15672, 724.925.5500
The above matter involved the appeal of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit No. PA0202975 (''NPDES Permit''), which was issued to Patriot Mining Company (''Patriot'') on February 19, 2014, authorizing its treated discharges at the Mt. Morris Mine in Perry and Dunkard Townships, Greene County. The NPDES Permit authorized treated post-mining discharges and the discharge of treated wastewater from mine drainage treatment facilities Outfalls TP110 to Dooley Run which drains to Dunkard Creek within the Monongahela River Watershed.
The Department's final action to resolve this NPDES Permit appeal was a settlement as reflected by a December 24, 2014 Consent Order and Agreement entered into by the Department and Patriot. In its appeal, Patriot challenged, inter alia, water quality based effluent limitations for iron, manganese, aluminum and osmotic pressure. The major provisions of the settlement includes a compliance schedule in the permit but requires Patriot to accept all of the originally established water quality based effluent limitations for iron, manganese and aluminum and osmotic pressure on and after August 1, 2015. Patriot has agreed not to challenge a final Amended NPDES Permit containing these effluent limitations. The draft Amended Permit is still subject to comment from the public prior to final issuance. The Department incorporated the compliance schedule to complete the installation and operation of a passive treatment system consisting of three wetland cells, three horizontal flow limestone beds and a polishing pond for the continued treatment of additional mine drainage seeps. Until such time as this system is completed, on or before May 1, 2015, and for three months thereafter, on or before August 1, 2015, the company shall be authorized to comply with interim effluent limitations for iron and manganese, with no discharge limitations for aluminum or osmotic pressure while it installs and starts operations of the new passive treatment system. Thereafter the company will be required to comply with the final water quality based effluent limitations contained in the draft NPDES Permit for all four challenged parameters.
Copies of the full agreement are in the possession of Charney Regenstein, Assistant Counsel, Department of Environmental Protection, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745, (412) 442-4262; and Kevin J. Garber, Esquire, Babst, Calland, Clements and Zomnir, PC, Two Gateway Center, 630 Stanwix Street, 6th Floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, (412) 394-5400. The full agreement may be reviewed by an interested person on request during normal business hours.
Any person believing himself aggrieved by the above Consent Order and Agreement has a right to appeal to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105-8457. Appeals must be filed within thirty (30) days of this publication.

Request for Comments on the Proposed Revision to the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Developed for Parts of the Crooked Creek Watershed, Armstrong and Indiana Counties The Department of Environmental Protection will accept comments as of February 14, 2015 for the proposed revision to the TMDL developed in 2009 for the portion of the Crooked Creek watershed affected by siltation. This TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. The 2012 Pennsylvania Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report included aquatic life use impaired stream segments in this watershed caused by siltation from abandoned mine lands and agricultural activities.
There are currently no state or federal in-stream numerical water quality criteria for sediment; therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria for sediment by comparing reference and impaired watersheds loading of annual siltation.
This proposed TMDL sets allowable loadings within the specifically impaired stream segments of the portion of the Crooked Creek watershed. The loading was allocated among the land uses of abandoned coal mines, cropland, hay/pasture land, associated transitional/disturbed land, and stream bank present in the watershed. Data used in establishing these TMDLs was generated using a water quality analysis model (AVGWLF) designed by the Pennsylvania State University. The following table shows the estimated current loadings for the watershed. Overall load reductions necessary in order to meet the TMDLs are also identified.

The proposed TMDLs and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's website (www.dep.state.pa.us/watermanagement_apps/tmdl/). To request a copy of any of the proposed TMDLs, contact Scott Alexander, Water Program Specialist, Bureau of Point and Non-Point Source Management, Central Office, Department of Environmental Protection, Rachel Carson State Office Building, Harrisburg, PA 17105, 717-772-5670, salexander@pa.gov.
The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDLs, which will be submitted to EPA for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the above address and must be postmarked by 30 days, after publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
