PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907)
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.

14-00002P: Graymont (PA) Inc. (965 East College Avenue, Pleasant Gap, PA 16823-6823) has submitted an application to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for plan approval for the proposed modifications to the Kiln No. 8 Project. The Kiln No. 8 Project is located at the Pleasant Gap facility in Spring Township, Centre County. On November 19, 2012, Graymont was given authorization to construct the Kiln No. 8 Project through the issuance of Plan Approval 14-00002N. Subsequent to the issuance of 14-00002N, Graymont determined the need to modify portions of the proposed operations for the project. Most of the proposed modifications pertain to the material handling, processing and storage of limestone and lime. There was a change to the quantity of engine generators for the project. Moreover, the design of the proposed kiln's exhaust was altered to incorporate quench air for exhaust cooling purposes. The existing BACT, MACT and BAT requirements with respect to the proposed kiln and processed stone handling that were established in 14-00002N remain in effect and are unchanged as a result of the proposed modification. Additionally, Graymont maintains compliance with the Plantwide Applicability Limit (PAL) established in 14-00002N for sulfur dioxide emissions. No change to the PAL was required due to this application. The proposed modifications result in changes to the project emissions as follows.
For CO and NOx (and NO2), the emissions change compared to the project's previous potential emission levels decrease by 0.7 tpy. For GHG emissions, the emissions change compared to the project's previous potential emission levels decrease by 124 tpy as CO2e. For particulate matter, PM-10, and PM2.5, the emissions change compared to the project's previous potential emission levels increase by 0.2 tpy, 0.2 tpy, and 0.3 tpy, respectively. The Department has determined that the proposed increases satisfy the Department's BAT requirements. The proposed modifications are subject to the National Standards of Performance for Nonmetallic Mineral Processing Plants that is codified in 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart OOO as applicable to the new/modified limestone processing sources as well as the National Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition Internal Combustion Engines that is codified in 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart IIII and the National Emission Standards of Hazardous Air Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines that is codified 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart ZZZZ as applicable to the proposed diesel-fired engine. The project previously was authorized to include 100 kW and 500 kW diesel-fired engine generators. The proposed modification replaces these generators with a diesel-fired engine generator rated for 65 kW. The Department has determined that the proposed modifications satisfy all applicable requirements from Article III of the Rules and Regulation of the Department of Environmental Protection.
The Department's review of the information submitted by Graymont indicates that the proposed sources (and associated control devices) for the proposed modification will meet all applicable air quality regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the Department's BAT requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12. Based on these findings, the Department intends to approve the application and issue a plan approval for the proposed modification for the Kiln No. 8 Project. The facility is a major (Title V) facility. Additionally, the conditions established in the plan approval will be incorporated into Title V Operating Permit 14-00002 by means of an administrative amendment pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 127.450, if the Department determines that the sources are operating in compliance with all plan approval conditions. The following is a summary of the conditions that the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued in order to ensure that the proposed modification will be in compliance with all applicable air quality regulatory requirements:
1. (a) This plan approval is granted for the use of ERCs according to 25 Pa. Code § 127.208(2).

(c) This plan approval authorizes the permittee to use 212 tpy of the acquired NOx credits for offsetting purposes for the Kiln No. 8 Project. The amount of NOx credits as determined by 25 Pa. Code § 127.203a(2)(i), satisfies the requirements at 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.205(3) and 127.210. The approval to use the portion of the acquired NOx credits for the Kiln No. 8 Project satisfies the requirements at 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.208(2), 127.208(9) and 127.209(c).
(d) The 10-year expiration date for the acquired NOx credits is April 30, 2016. Upon issuance of this plan approval, the acquired NOx credits are no longer subject to expiration under 25 Pa. Code § 127.206(f), except as specified in 25 Pa. Code § 127.206(g). In accordance with § 127.206(g), the 10 year expiration date for the acquired NOx credits or potion of the acquired NOx credits shall not be extended, if the acquired NOx credits or any portion of the acquired NOx credits specified in this plan approval are not used and subsequently reentered into the ERC registry.

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. In addition, the Department imposes a technology-based aluminum limit of 2.0 mg/l (30 day average) to protect stream uses.
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 BAT limits for noncoal mining activities as provided in 40 CFR Part 436 and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 77 are as follows:
30-day Daily Instantaneous Parameter Average Maximum Maximum Suspended solids 35 mg/l 70 mg/l 90 mg/l Alkalinity exceeding acidity* pH* greater than 6.0; less than 9.0 * The parameter is applicable at all times. 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 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). 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.

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.
