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--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 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 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, 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, 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 regional office before 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

The emission of SOx from the cupola is, however, expected to increase by as much as 11.09 tons per year.
Ward Manufacturing has additionally requested plan approval to transfer the control of PM emissions created by a material transfer point in the facility's casting shakeout and sand handling system from one existing fabric collector to another. No change in the type or quantity of air contaminant emissions will occur as a result of this transfer.
The Department's review of the information submitted by Ward Manufacturing indicates that following the installation of the fabric collector, the cupola will meet all applicable air quality requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the fugitive air contaminant emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.1, the PM emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.13, the SOx emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.21 and the visible air contaminant emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.41. Additionally, it is expected that the fabric collector will allow the cupola to comply with the requirements of Subpart EEEE of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories, 40 CFR 63.7680--63.7765, when Ward Manufacturing is required to do so on April 23, 2007.
The Department's review of the information submitted by Ward Manufacturing also indicates that following the transfer of control of the PM emitted from the material transfer point previously discussed from one existing fabric collector to another, the respective material transfer point will comply with all applicable air quality requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the fugitive air contaminant emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.1, the PM emission requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 123.13 and the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12.
Based on the previous findings, the Department intends to issue plan approval for the installation of the proposed fabric collector, the ''modification'' of the cupola caused by the resultant increase in SOx emissions and the transfer of air contaminant emission control of the material transfer point from one fabric collector to another. Additionally, if the Department determines that the cupola is operating in compliance with all applicable plan approval conditions and regulatory requirements following the installation of the fabric collector and the material transfer point is doing the same following the transfer of PM emission control from one existing fabric collector to another, the conditions established in the plan approval will be incorporated into Title V Operating Permit 59-00004 through administrative amendment under 25 Pa. Code § 127.450.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. The cupola fabric collector shall be equipped with a broken bag detection system.
2. The cupola fabric collector shall be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor the collector's inlet temperature.
3. The cupola fabric collector shall be equipped with instrumentation to continuously monitor the differential pressure across the collector.
4. The air compressor used to supply compressed air to the cupola fabric collector shall be equipped with an air dryer and oil trap.
5. Spare bags shall be kept onsite for the cupola fabric collector.
6. Within 120 days of completing the installation of the cupola fabric collector, stack testing shall be performed to determine the PM emission rate. At the same time, Method 9 opacity observations shall be made to determine the opacity of the visible air contaminant emissions.
7. The permittee shall comply with all applicable requirements of Subpart EEEE of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories, 40 CFR 63.7680--63.7765, in accordance with the schedule as is specified therein.
8. If upon completion of installation of the cupola fabric collector and/or the transfer of PM control for the material transfer point from one existing fabric collector to another, there is a conflict between the terms and conditions of the plan approval and any terms and conditions contained in Title V Operating Permit 59-00004 which apply to the respective sources, the source or sources shall be operated under the terms and conditions of this plan approval rather than the conflicting terms and conditions contained in the Title V operating permit.

O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania 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 of the Board at (717) 787-3483.

For individuals who wish to challenge an action, appeals must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.
Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

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--6026.908).
Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (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, shall 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 refuse 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 after 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 AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

[Continued from previous Web Page] LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 3
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).
Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8, administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act), require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of 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 act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of 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. 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 refuse 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. 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, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice of the plan or report appears. If information concerning a final report is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.
