Persons wishing to comment on WQM permit applications are invited to submit statements to the office noted before the application within 15 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. A comment submittal should 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 for public hearings on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.

     Persons with a disability who require an auxiliary aid, service, including TDD users, or other accommodations to seek additional information should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

     Sections 302—305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.302—6026.305) require the 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. A person intending to use the background standard, Statewide health standard, the site-specific standard or intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area shall 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 cleanup standards or 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 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 following site, 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 as follows. 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 listed before the notice. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

    PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS

     The 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 general public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to submit permitting documents relevant to its application for all sources related to a facility or a proposed project, affords an opportunity for public input, and provides for a decision on the issuance of the necessary permits.

     The Department received applications for Plan Approvals or Operating Permits from the following facilities.

     Copies of the application, the Department's analysis, all pertinent documents used in the evaluation of the application and subsequently prepared proposed plan approvals/operating permits are available for public review during normal business hours at the appropriate Department Regional Office. Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling the appropriate Department Regional Office. The address and phone number of the Regional Office is listed before the application notices.

     Persons wishing to file a written protest or provide comments or additional information, which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of a permit, may submit the information to the Department's Regional Office. A 30-day comment period from the date of this publication will exist for the submission of comments, protests and information. Each submission must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed Plan Approval/Operating Permit including the permit number and a concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to issuance of the permit.

     A person wishing to request a hearing may do so during the 30-day comment period. A public hearing may be held, if the Department, in its discretion, decides that a hearing is warranted based on the information received. Persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper, the Pennsylvania Bulletin or by telephone, when the Department determines this type of notification is sufficient. Requests for a public hearing and any relevant information should be directed to the appropriate Department Regional Office.

     Permits issued to the owners or operators of sources subject to 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter D or E, or located within a Title V facility or subject to 25 Pa. Code § 129.51(a) or permits issued for sources with limitations on their potential to emit used to avoid otherwise applicable Federal requirements may be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency for review and approval as a revision to the State Implementation Plan. Final Plan Approvals and Operating Permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the sources are constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4015), 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121—145, the Federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 7401—7671q) and regulations adopted under the Federal Clean Air Act.

    46-0271A: Ratoskey & Trainor, Inc. (240 Flint Hill Road, King of Prussia, PA 19406), for the installation and operation of a portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant and associated diesel fuel-fired engine at its existing facility, which is located in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County.

     The portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant and engine replaced the unit previously permitted under State Only Operating Permit (SOOP) No. 46-00271. The typical operating capacity of the new unit is approximately 100 tons per hour, which is less than the exemption criteria for portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plants (that are controlled with properly located water sprays or with fabric filters) of 150 tons per hour. However, the exemption criteria are based on rated capacity. Since the rated capacity of the new unit is 225 tons per hour, and the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant is unable to be permanently derated to less than 150 tons per hour, DEP requires that Ratoskey & Trainor, Inc., obtain a Plan Approval to authorize operation of the new unit.

     Based on a maximum operating schedule of 3,120 hours per year, and the use of a water spray dust suppression system, the post-control particulate matter (PM) emissions from the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant figure to be less than 2 tons per year.

     The engine associated with the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant conforms to U. S. EPA Interim Tier 4 emission standards. Based on the same operating schedule as the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant, the nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from the engine figure to be approximately 1.3 ton per year.

     Since the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant will move around at the facility, the engine is considered a nonroad engine. As such, the engine is not subject to the provisions of the Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources (NSPS) for Stationary Compression Ignition Internal Combustion Engines (40 CFR 60, Subpart IIII).

     In addition, Ratoskey & Trainor, Inc., has requested to maintain the flexibility granted in the SOOP for it to be permitted to operate the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant at additional temporary locations. The plan approval will include requirements addressing operation of the portable nonmetallic mineral crushing plant at additional temporary locations.

     The plan approval will also include monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, and work practice requirements designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.

    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.

     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 AT&T 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.

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.

    Plan Approvals Granted Under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. § 750.5)

    Northwest Region: Clean Water Program, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335-3481

    Plan Location:

    Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
    Harborcreek Township 5601 Buffalo Road
    Harborcreek, PA 16421
    Erie County

    Plan Description: The approved plan provides initially for two sanitary sewer overflow elimination projects. Construction of a gravity sewer line from Nagle Road along Iroquois Avenue and East Lake Road to the City of Erie connection at Franklin Avenue is proposed. This will convey up to 5 MGD from the 5 Mile Pump Station service area south of Route 20. A second project consists of the construction of a new 6 Mile Pump Station with 0.75 million gallon of equalization storage capacity. Upon completion of these two projects, an evaluation of the need for upgrades to the 5 Mile Pump Station will be completed. Following the sanitary sewer overflow elimination projects, Harborcreek Township will initiate five sewer extensions. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. Any required NPDES Permits or WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality or authority as appropriate.

    NOTICE OF PROPOSED INTERIM RESPONSE UNDER THE HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP ACT

    Former Erie Rail Yard Site

    Susquehanna Depot Borough, Susquehanna County

     The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act, 35 P. S. § 6020.101 et seq. (HSCA), is proposing an interim response action at the Former Erie Rail Yard Site (Site). This response will be undertaken pursuant to Sections 505(b) and (c) of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.505(b) and (c). The Site is located in Susquehanna Depot Borough, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania.

     The Site was used as a rail yard for over 125 years, from the 1840's through the 1960's as a major rail hub between Chicago and New York City. During the peak of operations, it covered about 40 acres, contained dozens of buildings and employed over 2,000 workers. Activities at the Site included engine and railcar repair, engine refueling, rail line service and repair, painting, foundry operations, and manufactured gas and oil production and processing. These processes used heavy metals as well as petroleum-based products and other contaminants of concern.

     Rail demand declined between 1967 and 1972 due to the growth of air and truck transportation. The Erie Rail Yard, along with five other major U. S. railroads, went bankrupt. Eventually most of the buildings at the Site were razed or destroyed by fires. The Site now includes several commercial businesses, municipal government buildings, a municipal wastewater treatment plant, a railroad right-of-way, and a wooded area northwest of the railroad tracks.

     The Department's investigation of the Site has determined that several heavy metals, including lead, antimony, and arsenic, are present in soils on Site in excess of applicable standards. Direct contact with the soils on Site, via dermal contact and/or direct ingestion, is the primary concern for the Site.

     The Department considered four alternatives to address the threats at the Site: 1) no action; 2) environmental covenants and institutional controls; 3) soil excavation; and 4) surface barrier.

     The Department has chosen the following actions because they are in compliance with applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) and are cost effective:

     • Limited soil excavation upstream of the Veterans Memorial Bridge, in areas where soil samples showed the highest contamination;

     • Installation and maintenance of a surface barrier of clean fill in contaminated areas; and

     • Implementation of environmental covenants on several properties to restrict future land uses and remove the potential for harm to the implemented remedy.

     This notice is being provided pursuant to Section 506(b) of HSCA. The Administrative Record, which contains the information that forms the basis and documents the selection of this response, is available for public review and comment at the Department's Northeast Regional Office, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, and at the Susquehanna Depot Borough Municipal Building, 83 Erie Boulevard, Susquehanna Depot. It is available for review at the Regional Office Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and at the Borough Office Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

     The Administrative Record will be open for comment through May 5, 2016. Persons may submit written comments into the Record during this time only, by sending them to Susan French, Project Officer, at the Department's Northeast Regional Office, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701, or by delivering them to that office in person.

     In addition, persons may present oral comments on the response action, for inclusion in the Administrative Record, at a public hearing scheduled for March 15, 2016, at 10:00 a.m. at the Susquehanna Depot Borough Municipal Building. Persons wishing to present testimony at the hearing should register with Susan French before March 10, 2016, by telephone at (570) 826-2064, or in writing to Susan French at the Department's Northeast Regional Office. If no person registers to present oral comments by the date specified above, the hearing will not be held.

     Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to participate in the proceedings, should contact Susan French or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at 1-800-654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

    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—6026.907).

     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.

     For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office under 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

    SPECIAL NOTICES

    CLEAN-UP AND REDEVLOPMENT OF A SITE UNDER THE HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP ACT OF
    OCTOBER 18, 1988

    Proposed Consent Order and Agreement

    Greenville-Reynolds Industrial Development Site

    Greenville, Mercer County

     Under section 1113 of the Pennsylvania Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101—6020.1305) (HSCA), notice is hereby provided that the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has agreed to a Consent Order and Agreement (Agreement) with Marcegaglia USA (Marcegaglia) and Greenville Reynolds Development Corporation (GRDC), concerning the areas impacted by the release of hazardous substances from the Former Damascus Tube Facility (Property and Offsite Ditches) which is a subset of the larger Greenville-Reynolds Industrial Development HSCA Site (Site) in Greenville, Mercer County. The Property and Offsite Ditches are areas where hazardous substances, wastes, and other materials from the Former Damascus Tube Facility have been released or threaten to be released.

     In the past, wastes and other materials containing hazardous substances were dumped, spilled, or otherwise disposed at the Site including the Property and Offsite Ditches, and these hazardous substances contaminated the soils, sediments and groundwater beneath the Site. The Department and others have investigated the Site and to date have found that sediment, groundwater, and soils at the Site including the Property and Offsite Ditches are contaminated with ''hazardous substances'' as defined in Section 103 of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.103, including, among others: lead, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), zinc, nickel, manganese, and trichloroethylene (TCE). The presence of these hazardous substances at the Site constitutes a ''release'' and a ''threat of release'' of a hazardous substance, as defined in Section 103 of HSCA, 35 P. S. § 6020.103.

     The Agreement concerns Marcegaglia's settlement for the Site, the cleanup of the Property and Offsite Ditches by GRDC, and Marcegaglia respectively, and the redevelopment of the Property within the Site by GRDC for public benefit. Specifically, Marcegaglia will transfer the Property to GRDC at a discounted price and pay $50,158.87 to the Hazardous Sites Cleanup fund as settlement for the Site based on costs incurred by the Department on the Property and Offsite Ditches. Marcegaglia will also conduct a response action to address contamination in the Offsite Ditches. GRDC will complete the remediation at the Property and redevelop the Property for industrial use. The specific terms of this settlement are set forth in the Agreement among the Department, Marcegaglia, and GRDC.

     The Department will receive and consider comments relating to the Agreement for sixty (60) days from the date of this Public Notice. The Department has the right to withdraw its consent to the Agreement if the comments concerning the Agreement disclose facts or considerations which indicate that the Agreement is inappropriate, improper, or not in the public interest. After the public comment period, the Department's settlement with Marcegaglia and GRDC shall be effective upon the date that the Department notifies Marcegaglia and GRDC, in writing, that this Agreement is final and effective in its present form and that the Department has filed a response to significant written comments to the Agreement or that no such comments were received.
