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--304 and 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 any 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 intends 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, or 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 as 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's Regional Office under 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 listed.

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 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--143, the Federal Clean Air Act and regulations adopted under the act.

SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT PLAN APPROVAL
Plan Approval granted under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20).
Northeast Regional Office: Water Management Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790, (570) 826-2511.
Hazle Township, Luzerne County.
The Department has reviewed the Official Sewage Facilities Special Study (Special Study) dated March 1999 (received by the Department on March 19, 1999), revised December 15, 1999 (revisions received by the Department on December 17, 1999) with additional documentation/information dated February 10, 2000 (received by the Department on February 11, 2000) as submitted by Schumacher Engineering, Inc., on behalf of Hazle Township (Township) and the Municipal Authority of Hazle Township (Authority).
The Department's review has found that the Special Study is acceptable and hereby grants planning approval.
The Special Study calls for the construction of a new wastewater collection and conveyance system as outlined in Option 1-C of the Special Study. The proposed wastewater collection/conveyance system will serve approximately 586 Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU's) in the following areas of Hazle Township: Harleigh Terrace, Ebervale, Oakmont Acres, Oakdale, Middletown, Japan, Drifton, Youngstown and Forest Hill Acres. The conveyance system will also provide additional capacity to transport wastewater from 55 EDU's to be serviced by the proposed Jeddo Borough Wastewater Collection System.
Wastewater from the planning area will be conveyed through approximately 69,100 feet of gravity sewer line varying from 8 inches to 15 inches in diameter. The conveyance system will also utilize three wastewater pumping stations and approximately 5,600 feet of 6 inch and 10 inch force main to transport wastewater from the planning area to an existing 12 inch interceptor line located along S. R. 0940 in the Village of Harleigh. All of the planning area's wastewater, with the exception of the Forest Hill Acres Area, will be conveyed to this tie-in point for transmission to the Greater Hazleton Joint Sewer Authority's Wastewater Treatment Facility for treatment and discharge. Wastewater from the Forest Hill Acres Area will be conveyed to a proposed, privately-owned wastewater collection system in the Hazle Springs area for eventual transmission to the Greater Hazleton Joint Sewer Authority's Diamond Avenue Pump Station.
Financing for the proposed wastewater collection/conveyance system will be provided by the United States Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service.
With the approval of the Special Study, Hazle Township will limit new or replacement wastewater disposal systems in the planning area to holding tanks. These holding tanks will be used only as an interim/temporary wastewater disposal method until the proposed wastewater collection/conveyance system is constructed and operational in all portions of the planning area. In accordance with the provisions of the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20(a)) (Act 537), and Chapter 71 of the Department's regulations (25 Pa. Code Ch. 71), the Department will hold Hazle Township and its municipal Authority responsible for the complete and timely implementation of Option 1-C, as listed in the Special Study and its corresponding schedule of implementation.
Any additional wastewater-related improvements, additions, deletions or changes outside of those explicitly described in the Special Study and its correspondence must be in compliance with the Department's regulations and be submitted to and approved by the Department in writing.
This approval correspondence covers only the wastewater planning aspects of the selected wastewater disposal alternative as it relates to the Township's Official Sewage Facilities Plan. Implementation of the selected wastewater disposal alternative will require a Water Management Part II Permit for the construction and operation of the proposed sewage facilities. The permit application must be submitted in the name of the Township or Authority as appropriate. Issuance of a Part II Permit will be based upon a technical evaluation of the permit application and supporting documentation. Starting construction prior to obtaining a Part II Permit is a violation of The Clean Streams Law. Please include a copy of this approval correspondence with the Water Management Part II Permit Application when it is submitted to this office.
Other Departmental permits may be required for construction if encroachment to streams or wetlands will result. Information regarding the requirements for such permits or approvals can be obtained from the Northeast Regional Office's Soils and Waterways Section at the letterhead address or by telephone at (570) 826-2511.

Location: Borough of Beavertown, Snyder County. Project Description: The approved plan calls for the Beavertown Municipal Authority to construct a new and expanded wastewater treatment facility to replace the existing aged and overloaded facility. The new 160,000 gallon per day aerated lagoon type facility will be built in the northern portion of the Borough and will discharge treated effluent to Kerns Run via a new outfall line to be constructed through Beaver Township. The approval plan also calls for the systematic replacement of the Borough's existing sewage collection system, which is subject to significant amounts of infiltration and inflow, over a 20 year period. Leaky private laterals will be replaced in conjunction with the replacement of the public collection lines. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant negative environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.

Joseph Augustine, Executive Director, Upper Shenango Valley Water Collection Control Authority, P. O. Box 1449, Hermitage, PA 16148. Project Description: This approved project proposes an upgrade and expansion of the pump station to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows to the Shenango River. The pump station and its overflow are upstream of the intake for the Consumers Pennsylvania Water Company Treatment Plant. The pump station will be expanded to handle a peak hourly flow of 11.4 mgd. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.

Plans and reports required by provisions of the act 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 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. 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 Manager 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Certified Emission Reduction Credits in Pennsylvania'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 (DEP) 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--127.208. 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 expire for use as offsets 10 years after the emission reduction occurs. ERCs generated by overcontrol of emissions by an existing facility does not expire for use as offsets. However, credits in the registry which 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 (EPA).
For additional information concerning this listing of certified ERCs, contact Virendra Trivedi, 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.
