[Continued from previous Web Page] LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION Under Act 2, 1995 Preamble 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Sections 302, 303, 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 intend 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 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.

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.
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.

REASONABLY AVAILABLE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY (RACT) Proposed Revision to the State Implementation Plan for
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)Approval of a Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT)
Plan and Operating PermitBlair County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a preliminary determination to approve a Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) Plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP). This determination and amendment is for a copper and brass tubing cold working redraw mill owned and operated by Small Tubes Products Co., Inc. located in Allegheny Township, Blair County.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in RACT Operating Permit No. 07-02010 for the existing facility to comply with current regulations.
The preliminary RACT determination, when approved, will be incorporated into an Operating Permit for the facility and will be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania's SIP.
A VOC RACT determination is being made for the copper and brass tubing manufacturing facility. The preliminary VOC RACT determination for the facility will limit the total VOC emissions along with the VOC emissions per ton of tubing produced and require various work practices to minimize the emissions of VOCs. Upon final approval of the company's case-by-case analysis, the operating permit will include conditions requiring recordkeeping and reporting of operational data to verify VOC emissions.
An appointment to review the pertinent documents at the Altoona District Office at 615 Howard Avenue, Altoona may be scheduled by contacting Kathy Ciampoli at (814) 946-7290 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, except holidays.
One public hearing will be held for the purpose of receiving comments on the proposal. The hearing will be held June 30, 1999, at the Department's Altoona District Office, located at 615 Howard Avenue, Altoona, PA 16601, from 10 a.m. until all scheduled comments on the proposed action are received.
