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.

55-399-007A: Kerrico Corp. (R. R. 1, Box 131H, Selinsgrove, PA 17870) for modification of a cast polymer bathroom and kitchen countertop manufacturing operation in Penn Township, Snyder County.
The respective facility is a major (Title V) facility for HAPs but a Title V operating permit has not yet been issued.
The respective modifications consist of using methylene chloride, a HAP which Kerrico is currently not permitted to use, for certain select cleaning operations and increasing the amount of acetone used for cleaning purposes. Kerrico has also requested approval to use pigmented gelcoats in addition to the clear gelcoats and white/off-white gelcoats which were previously approved by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department). The use of methylene chloride is expected to result in an increase of up to 1.43 tons per year in the amount of HAPs emitted by the facility. The increase in acetone usage is expected to result in an increase of up to 5.0 tons per year in the amount of acetone emitted by the facility. The use of pigmented gelcoats in addition to clear gelcoats and white/off-white gelcoats is not expected to result in an increase in the emission of any air contaminant.
The Department's review of the information submitted by Kerrico Corporation indicates that the use of methylene chloride for certain select cleaning operations, the increased usage of acetone and the use of pigmented gelcoats should comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the best available technology requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and the requirements of Subpart WWWW of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 40 CFR 63.5780--63.5935 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Reinforced Plastic Composites Production). Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue plan approval for the proposed modifications.
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. Conditions contained in Plan Approval 55-399-007 remain in effect unless superseded or amended by a condition contained herein. If there is a conflict between a condition contained in Plan Approval 55-399-007 and a condition contained herein, the permittee shall comply with the condition contained herein rather than the conflicting condition contained in Plan Approval 55-399-007.
2. Pigmented gelcoats applied in this facility shall be applied in conformance with all conditions contained in Plan Approval 55-399-007 which have applicability to gelcoats except as specified herein.
3. ''Clear gelcoats,'' ''white/off-white gelcoats'' and ''pigmented gelcoats'' (as those terms are defined in Subpart WWWW) are the only gelcoats that shall be applied at this facility. The clear gelcoats shall contain no more than 44% VOCs (by weight) and no more than 44% volatile HAPs (by weight). The white/off-white gelcoats shall contain no more than 30% VOCs (by weight) and no more than 30% volatile HAPs (by weight). The pigmented gelcoats shall contain no more than 31% VOCs (by weight) and no more than 31% volatile HAPs (by weight).
4. Methylene chloride may be used to clean cured resin from the mixing cylinder and associated auger incorporated in the Respecta DB-11/10-20 continuous casting machine but shall not be used anywhere else in the facility for any purpose.
5. The total combined facility-wide emission of methylene chloride shall not exceed 1.43 tons in any 12-consecutive month period.

10-001J: AK Steel Corporation (Route 8 South, Butler, PA 16003-0832) for modification to an existing Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) in Meadville, Clarion County.
Notice is hereby given under 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44, 127.521 and 40 CFR 52.21 (1)(2), that the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is soliciting comments on the proposed Air Quality Plan Approval for AK Steel Corporation to modify existing EAF sources at AK Steel Corporation. This modification will allow the three EAFs to increase production from 1.2 million tons to 1.31 million tons of steel per year.
AK Steel has filed an application with the Department (230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335) to modify three EAFs. The project includes installation of combination side-wall burners/lances on all three EAFs. These burners, which are produced by a variety of manufacturers, are capable of firing a mixture of gas/oxygen, pure oxygen or inert gas from either traditional burner ports or as a supersonic coherent jet. The side-wall burners will use natural gas during the initial melting phase. The lances will inject carbon and oxygen during the melting and refining stages of the steel making process.
Applicable requirements for the proposed application include the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) regulations (40 CFR 52.21). This plan approval will, in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 127.450, be incorporated into the Title V operating permit through an administrative amendment at a later date.
Based on the information provided by the applicant and Department's own analysis, the proposed modifications to the EAFs would emit: NOx 351.4 tpy; CO 3484.7 tpy; VOCs 39.2 tpy; SOx 66.5 tpy; PM less than 10µm, 165.7 tpy; and, Total Suspended Particulates, 165.7 tpy. Based on the information provided by the applicant and Department's own analysis, the proposed modifications to the EAFs will have a net emission increase of: NOx 9.4 tpy; CO 2638.6 tpy; VOCs 23.6 tpy; SOx 34.5 tpy; PM less than 10 µm 9.2 tpy; and, Total Suspended Particulates 16.8 tpy.
According to 40 CFR 52.21(l)(2), an alternative to the air quality models specified in 40 CFR Part 51, Appendix W (relating to Guideline on Air Quality Models) may be used to model air quality if the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approves the substitute model. Use of the substitute model is subject to notice and an opportunity for public comment.
As an alternative to EPA Guideline Models, ISC-Prime was used in the air quality analysis for the proposed EAF project. Specific approval for the use of ISC-Prime in this analysis was granted by the EPA Region III Administration on October 18, 2005. Under 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44, 127.83 and 40 CFR 52.21(l)(2) and (q), notice is hereby given that the Department is soliciting written comments on the use of the ISC-Prime, non-guideline model.
The Department has determined that the application reflects the use of Best Available Control Technology, as required by the PSD regulations. The facility will only trigger PSD for CO. The preliminary analysis results for CO indicate 11,429 µ/m3 for a 1-hour averaging period and 8,000 µg/m3 for an 8-hour averaging period. The Class II Area Significance Level is 2000 µg/m3 for a 1-hour averaging period and 500 µg/m3 for an 8-hour averaging period.
The results of the NAAQS analysis for CO indicates a total value of 13,693 µg/m3 for a rural 1-hour averaging period and a total value of 9,963µg/m3 for a rural 8-hour averaging period. The NAAQS for a rural 1-hour averaging period is 40,000 µg/m3 and a rural 8-hour averaging period is 10,000 µg/m3.
No visibility impairment analysis was performed since CO is not associated with degradation in visibility. No significant impact on soils and vegetation is anticipated. There is no expected impact on air quality from residential, commercial, and industrial growth associated with the project. There is no consumption of increment, because there is no increment for CO.
Sources subject to PSD regulations must meet certain conditions prior to the issuance of a preconstruction/modification approval. These conditions are briefly described below. For exact text, please refer to the 40 CFR 52.21.
Conditions The following conditions apply to the melt shop, including EAF Nos. 2--4:

d) Within 60 days after completion of stack testing, three copies of the complete test report, including, but not limited to, production rates during testing, % sulfur in coke added to EAFs, amount of coke added to EAFs and amount of oxygen injected during refining phase, type of steel produced, calculation methods and results, and any other applicable testing information that will allow for complete review of the test and results, shall be submitted to the Department for approval.
e) Actions Related to Noncompliance Demonstrated by a Stack Test:
i) If the results of a stack test, performed as required by this approval, exceed the level specified in any condition of this approval, the Permitee shall take appropriate corrective actions. Within 30 days of the Permitee receiving the stack test results, a written description of the corrective actions shall be submitted to the Department. The Permitee shall take appropriate action to minimize emissions from the affected facility while the corrective actions are being implemented. The Department shall notify the Permitee within 30 days, if the corrective actions taken are deficient. Within 30 days of receipt of the notice of deficiency, the Permitee shall submit a description of additional corrective actions to the Department. The Department reserves the authority to use enforcement activities to resolve noncompliant stack tests.
ii) If the results of the required stack test exceed any limit defined in this plan approval, the test was not performed in accordance with the stack test protocol or the source and/or air cleaning device was not operated in accordance with the plan approval, then another stack test shall be performed to determine compliance. Within 120 days of the Permitee receiving the original stack test results, a retest shall be performed. The Department may extend the retesting deadline if the Permitee demonstrates, to the Department's satisfaction, that retesting within 120 days is not practicable. Failure of the second test to demonstrate compliance with the limits in the plan approval, not performing the test in accordance with the stack test protocol or not operating the source and/or air cleaning device in accordance with the plan approval may be grounds for immediate revocation of the plan approval to operate the affected source.

The respective facility is a major facility for both VOCs and volatile HAPs and one for which a Title V operating permit (49-00020) has been issued.
The operation of the proposed air contamination sources, all of which actually already exist onsite, will result in the emission of up to 34.883 tons of VOCs, 25.71 tons of volatile HAPs (most of which will be styrene), 1.284 tons of PM including PM10 and .62 ton of metallic HAPs), 4.8 tons of acetone and .49 ton of ammonia per year.
The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information submitted by Truck Accessories Group, Inc. indicates that the proposed air contamination sources should comply with all Air Quality requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the best available technology requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12, the New Source Review requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.201--127.217, the Reasonably Available Control Technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.91--129.95 and Subpart WWWW of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 40 CFR 63.5780--63.5935 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Reinforced Plastic Composites Production).

S. §§ 721.1--721.17) for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. 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. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
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.

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.
