AIR QUALITY Notice of Plan Approval and Operating Permit Applications Nonmajor 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.
Notice is hereby given that the Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities. Although the sources covered by these applications may be located at a major facility, the sources being installed or modified do not trigger major new source review or prevention of significant deterioration requirements.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the Regional Offices identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed plan approval and/or operating permits must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with the Department's 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 to the date of the hearing.
Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121 through 143, the Federal Clean Air Act and regulations adopted under the act.

Proposed Revisions to Title V/State Only Operating Permits to include conditions relating to NOx allowance requirements in 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.101--123.120.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to revise existing Operating Permits to include revised allocations under the provisions of 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.101--123.120 (relating to NOx allowance requirements). These regulations establish a NOx budget and a NOx allowance trading program for NOx affected sources for the purpose of achieving the health-based ozone ambient air quality standard. A NOx affected source is defined as a fossil fuel fired indirect heat exchange combustion unit with a maximum rated heat input capacity of 250 MMBtu/hour or more and all fossil fuel fired electric generating facilities rated at 15 megawatts or greater or any other source that voluntarily opts to become a NOx affected source.
The operating permits require the owner or operator of each NOx affected source to hold a quantity of NOx allowances meeting the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.110(a) by December 31, of each calendar year. One NOx Allowance is the limited authorization to emit 1 ton of NOx during the NOx Allowance Control Period, which begins May 1 of each year and ends September 30 of the same year. The NOx allowances held in the source's current year NOx Allowance Tracking System (NATS) account must be equal to or greater than the total NOx emitted from the source during the year's NOx allowance control period. The initial NOx allowance control period began on May 1, 1999.
The operating permits also include emission monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping requirements for each NOx affected source. NOx emissions from each NOx affected source shall be monitored in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 123.108 and the procedures contained in the document titled ''Guidance for Implementation of Emission Monitoring Requirements for the NOx Budget Program.''
Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed revised operating permits must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed permits. Any comments or protests filed at the following address must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the 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 and a newspaper of general circulation, where the facility is located, at least 30 days prior to the date of the hearing.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP Under the Act of October 18, 1988 Notice of Settlement Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1304) (HSCA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C.A. § 9601 et seq. (CERCLA), has entered into a settlement with the Estate of Isabella J. Nelson for reimbursement of certain response costs incurred to remediate hazardous substances stored and disposed of at the Susquehanna Drum Site, located at 1668 Susquehanna Road in Upper Dublin Township, Montgomery County, PA (site). This Site is a part of the Estate of Isabella Nelson (Estate) and includes a barn where drums and compressed gas cylinders of hazardous substances were stored.
In May, 1998, the Department received a complaint about fuming drums of unknown materials stored at the site. An emergency investigation by the Department revealed the presence of numerous unlabeled drums, some of which contained silicon tetrachloride, a reactive and corrosive hazardous substance which reacts with air and causes the release of hydrogen chloride gas into the atmosphere. Additionally, the Department discovered approximately 200 compressed gas cylinders, some of which contained silane, a reactive hazardous substance. Based upon the volatile conditions at the site, including the threat of fire or explosion, the Department conducted a prompt interim response under section 505(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.505(b)) to abate the release and threat of release of hazardous substances. The Department incurred $140,743.81 in response costs for this site.
The Estate is a ''responsible person'' in accordance with section 701 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.701) and as such, the Estate has agreed to reimburse the Department for its share of the response costs expended at the site. Accordingly, the Estate and the Department have executed a Consent Order and Agreement which provides for the Estate's payment of $21,000 to resolve its liability for certain response costs incurred at the site.
This notice is provided under section 1113 of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.1113) which provides that ''settlement shall become final upon the filing of the Department's response to the significant written comments.'' The Consent Order and Agreement, which contains the specific terms of the settlement is available for public review and comment. The agreement can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southeast Regional Office, located in Lee Park, 555 North Lane, Suite 6010, Conshohocken, PA 19428, by contacting either Thomas Sheehan, at (610) 832-6149 or Gina M. Thomas, at (610) 832-6300. Thomas Sheehan and Gina Thomas may also be contacted electronically at sheehan.thomas@dep.state.pa.us and thomas.gina@dep.state.pa.us, respectively. A public comment period on the Consent Order and Agreement will extend for 60 days from today's date. Persons may submit written comments regarding the agreement within 60 days from today's date, by submitting them to Thomas Sheehan at the above address.

The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908) and Chapter 250 Administration of Land Recycling Program
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8 Administration of Land Recycling Program requires the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on 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 remediation standards of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act). Plans and reports required by provisions of Act 2 for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report, and cleanup plan. A remediation 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. A cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program in the Department's Regional Office under which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a plan or report is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office listed.
