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.

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 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 received applications for Plan Approvals or Operating Permits from the following facilities.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional office listed before the applications. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule appointments.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit shall indicate interests to the Department regional office within 30 days of the date of this notice and shall file protests or comments on a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed documents to persons or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that hearings be held concerning a proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit. A comment or protest filed with the Department regional office shall 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.

Code § 127.450 or § 127.505, be incorporated into the State Only operating permit at a later date.
Plan approval No 24-167B is for the modification of operating permit conditions established in plan approval 24-167A for the baking kiln and the proposed installation of a new baghouse to replace two existing baghouses for the blending process. This project will not result in an emission increase. This Plan Approval will contain emission restriction, testing, recordkeeping, work practice standard and additional requirement conditions, which will satisfy the requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 127.12b (pertaining to plan approval terms and conditions) and will demonstrate Best Available Technology (BAT) for the source including, but are not limited to, the following:
• Baking Kilns (Source 101)
• Within 180 days after plan approval issuance, a stack test on at least one recirculating furnace for VOC shall be performed. Within 1 year after plan approval issuance, a stack test on at least one box furnace for VOC shall be performed. Both tests shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 139 of the Rules and Regulations of the Department of Environmental Protection. Both stack tests shall be performed while the aforementioned sources are operating at the maximum or normal rated capacity as stated in the application. Both stack tests shall be conducted while the bottom furnace temperature is between 500F and 650F with the flame grid off, while the bottom furnace temperature is between 650F and 1,250F with the flame grid operating, and while the bottom furnace temperature is between 1,250F and 1,450F with the flame grid off. Testing at each temperature range shall consist of three one hour tests for VOC.
• The flame grid temperature shall be operated in a range defined by the manufacturer or in a range developed during compliant stack testing. Based on operational data from the furnaces, the flame grid temperature shall be maintained at or above 1050 degrees Fahrenheit whenever the bottom of the furnace is at 650 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. If a higher flame grid temperature is used during the required stack testing, that temperature will become the operational limit.
• The permittee shall turn on the flame grid control device prior to the furnace bottom temperature reaching 650F. The control device shall remain on until the furnace bottom temperature is greater than 1250F. Once the furnace bottom temperature is above 1250F, the flame grid can be turned off.
• All the conditions from the facility operating permit issued on October 4, 2011, remain in effect unless superseded in this plan approval.
• Special Impregnation Process (Source 102)
• The permittee shall perform a daily operational inspection of the source which shall include, but not be limited to, verifying no fugitive emissions associated with the source.
• All the conditions from the facility operating permit issued on October 4, 2011, remain in effect unless superseded in this plan approval.
• Blending Operation 1 and 2 (Sources 6889A & 6990)
• The filterable particulate matter emission rate shall not exceed 0.02 gr/dscf.
• Within 180 days after startup of the control, a stack test for FPM
• The permittee shall record the following operational data from the baghouse during the required operational inspection (these records may be done with strip charts recorders, data acquisition systems, or manual log entries):
• Pressure differential—daily defined as once per calendar day
• The permittee shall adhere to the approved indicator range for the baghouse so that operation within the range shall provide reasonable assurance of compliance. A departure from the specified indicator range over a specified averaging period shall be defined as an excursion. The approved indicator range for the following shall be determined during the initial performance test or any subsequently approved performance tests unless otherwise stated:
• Pressure drop: 1.0 to 8.0 inches water gage or as established during compliant testing
• All the conditions from the facility operating permit issued on October 4, 2011, remain in effect unless superseded in this plan approval.

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.

Section VII contains notices for parties who have submitted NOIs for Coverage under General NPDES Permits. The approval for coverage under these General NPDES Permits is subject to applicable effluent limitations, monitoring, reporting requirements and other conditions in each General Permit. The approval of coverage for land application of sewage sludge or residential septage under applicable general permit is subject to pollutant limitations, pathogen and vector attraction reduction requirements, operational standards, general requirements, management practices and other conditions in the respective permit. The permits and related documents, effluent limitations, permitting requirements and other information are on file and may be inspected and arrangements made for copying at the contact office noted before the action.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P.

[Continued on next Web Page]
[Continued from previous Web Page] PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY PERMITS The Department has taken the following actions on applications received under the Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act (35 P. S. §§ 721.1—721.17) for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704. The appeal should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, PO Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users may contact the 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. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.
For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal 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 document 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.

East Berlin PA 17316Adams Plan Description: The planning module for the Jeff and Deborah Seibert Subdivision, DEP Code No. B3-01928-238-2/3S, APS Id 752389, providing for a six lot single family residential subdivision where Lot 1 will utilize an individual residential spray irrigation system and Lots 2-6 will be tributary to a small flow treatment facility for sewage disposal is disapproved. The treatment facility is proposed to discharge 2000 gallons per day to a dry stream channel tributary to Mud Run. The property is located on the north side of Nell Road, approximately 1500 feet east of Stony Point Road in Reading Township. This plan is disapproved because: 1) Ultimate ownership and the responsibility for proper operation and maintenance of the proposed sewage facility will be the property owners of Lots 2 through 6. The property owner's agreement included in the planning module is not acceptable under the requirements of Chapter 71, Section 71.64(c)(5). When multiple property owners are equally responsible for operation and maintenance they must be joined under the umbrella of a single association, trust, or other private entity which is structured to manage the system. The property owner's agreement does not adequately address this ultimate arrangement. For such an arrangement the requirements of Chapter 71, Section 71.64(c)(5)(vi) must be addressed; 2) In light of item #1, the planning module did not contain the information required by Chapter 71, Section 71.52(a)(6); 3) The concerns raised by the Adams County Office of Planning and Development were not considered and addressed by the municipality as required by Chapter 71, Section 71.53(e); 4) Section Q of Component 3S was not completed and signed by the municipality.

SPECIAL NOTICES
Application Period for Municipal Recycling Program Performance Grant Applications under Act 101, Section 904 of the Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act of 1988; Calendar Year 2013 The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) announces a request for applications from municipalities for recycling performance grant assistance for recycling programs pursuant to the Pennsylvania Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act of 1988, Act 101, P. L. 556, Section 904. Municipalities include counties, cities, boroughs, incorporated towns, townships, home rule municipalities, their authorities, councils of governments, consortiums, or similar entities established by two or more municipalities under 53 PA.C.S. Ch. 23 Subch. A (relating to intergovernmental cooperation). This application period is for eligible materials recycled and marketed in calendar year 2013.
Municipal Recycling Program Performance Grant funds will be awarded to municipalities based upon the weight of source-separated recyclable materials identified in § 1501(c)(1)(i) of Act 101 recovered by municipal recycling programs, and the population of the municipality as determined by the most recent decennial census. Calendar year 2013 Recycling Performance Grants will be calculated utilizing the formula established for the past two grant years.
Applicants who have failed to comply with the conditions set forth in previously awarded grants, the recycling program performance requirements contained in Act 140 of 2006, the grant requirements of Act 101, or the regulations of Act 101 may not be awarded funds under this grant program. Applicants must ensure that they are in compliance with § 272.314(b)(2) relating to the submittal of the annual recycling report.
Eligible materials include post-consumer: clear glass, colored glass, aluminum cans, steel and bimetallic cans, high-grade office paper, newsprint, corrugated paper, other marketable grades of paper, and plastics. Grants will be awarded only for properly documented, eligible materials that were actually marketed on or after Jan. 1, 2013, to and including Dec. 31, 2013. Applicants should only claim those tonnages for which they have documentation at the time they complete their application. Any residues, materials not listed as eligible, or any materials that cannot be documented as being generated within the municipality or marketed or recycled into new products or uses are not eligible for consideration toward the grant. In particular, recovered glass that is being stockpiled or used as daily cover at a landfill will not be considered as recycled. Applicants must be able to document the amount of residue attributable to their recycling program.
Documentation to support all claims that eligible recyclable materials were generated within the municipality and marketed must be made available for auditing by the Department of Environmental Protection, the Office of the Auditor General, the Office of the Treasurer, or agents of those offices for four (4) years. DEP will not require applicants to retain hauler customer lists; however, the lists may be required to be examined in the event of an audit. It will be the applicant's responsibility to arrange for hauler customer lists to be provided, or for haulers to be present with their customer lists, during a grant audit. Supporting documentation is not required to be submitted with the application. Any tonnages not properly documented at the time of an audit will not be credited towards the applicant's Performance Grant award. No additional/supplemental documentation will be accepted after the audit is completed. Failure to submit a complete and accurate application may result in a denial of the application.
Grant applications must be on forms provided by DEP for calendar year 2013. Grant applications must be delivered by 4 p.m., Sep. 30, 2014, or postmarked on or before this date. Applications received by the DEP after the deadline will be returned to the applicant. All grant awards are predicated on the receipt of recycling fees required by Sections 701 and 702 of Act 101, and the availability of monies in the Recycling Fund.
Applicants who filed a Performance Grant application for calendar year 2012 will be mailed a current application by DEP as soon as it is available. Applications may also be obtained from the DEP's website at www.depweb.state.pa.us (Keyword: ''Recycling Grants''). Inquiries concerning this notice should be directed to Mark Vottero, Bureau of Waste Management, Department of Environmental Protection, Rachel Carson State Office Building, PO Box 8472, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8472 or mvottero@pa.gov.
Mifflin-Juniata Counties Regional Municipal Waste Management Plan; Public Review & Comment Period and Public Meeting Notices Mifflin and Juniata Counties, Pennsylvania (the Counties), in coordination with the members of the Solid Waste Advisory Committees (SWACs) for each county and with assistance of a consultant, Barton & Loguidice, have prepared a Draft Regional Municipal Waste Management Plan (Regional Plan). The Regional Plan projects waste disposal needs, recyclable quantities, and management techniques to handle those materials for the next ten years. The Regional Plan requires that all municipal wastes generated in Mifflin County and Juniata County be disposed of at Designated Processing/ Disposal Facilities identified in the Regional Plan. The Counties have secured long-term disposal capacity commitments by entering contracts with a total of eleven (11) Designated Facilities in the area, as listed in Chapter 7 of the Regional Plan. These contracts become effective in 2015.
The primary public facility that services the waste and recycling needs of the Counties is the Mifflin County Solid Waste Authority's (Authority's) Transfer Station and Recycling Depot (Transfer Facility), located in Derry Township near Lewistown. The Authority has entered a long-term contract with the Clinton County Solid Waste Authority for the hauling and disposal of wastes from the Authority's Transfer Facility at the Wayne Township Landfill in McElhattan, PA beginning in 2015. The Authority also services over 50 recycling drop-off containers throughout Mifflin County, and accepts self-haul recycling at the Transfer Facility from the Counties. The Regional Plan recognizes the desire to sustain and expand recycling opportunities in the Counties.
The Regional Plan acknowledges the Authority as a key service provider of integrated waste and recycling services and programs for the Counties' residents and businesses. Further, the Regional Plan identifies the benefits to the Counties of a sustained and viable Authority operation throughout the 10-year planning period. The Authority uses a combination of volume discount waste delivery contracts, a competitively bid hauling/ disposal contract, internal fiscal controls, and multiple funding sources to secure the necessary tonnages and revenues to remain viable and sustainable. The Authority intends to continue to use these measures throughout the planning period. The Regional Plan contains contingent waste assurance ordinances and mechanisms that would be triggered only if the current contracting and waste delivery assurance techniques become ineffective in the future.
Copies of the Regional Plan will be available for inspection and review during normal business hours at 1) the Juniata County Planning Office, Juniata County Courthouse in Mifflintown; 2) the Mifflin County Planning Office, Mifflin County Courthouse in Lewistown, and; 3) the Mifflin County Solid Waste Authority Office, at the entrance of 87 Landfill Road, Lewistown (in Derry Township, on Route 522). The Plan can also be accessed, downloaded and reviewed electronically on the Barton & Loguidice project website at: www.bartonandloguidice.com/mifflin-juniata-swplan.htm.
Comments will be accepted on the Regional Plan anytime within 90 days of the date of this first printed notice (July 9, 2014). A person may make inquiries on this public review and comment process, or submit their comments in writing, along with the specific reason for their comments, to: 1) the Juniata County Planning Office, One North Main Street, Mifflintown, PA 17059, attention Mr. Brad Kerstetter, Planning Director, ph. 717-436-7729 (or via e-mail to bkerstetter@juniataco.org); or to the Mifflin County Solid Waste Authority, 87 Landfill Road, Lewistown PA 17044, Attention Ms. Lisa Smith, Director ph. 717-242-3301 (or via e-mail to lisamifflincountyswa.com). Two public meetings will be held to accept Regional Plan comments on Tuesday, September 9, 2014, at: 1) 10:00 am in the Authority's Administrative Office , at entrance of 87 Landfill Road, Lewistown, and 2) 1:00 pm at the Juniata County Conservation District Office, 146 Stoney Creek Drive, Suite 4, Mifflintown (Arch Rock Road Exit off Route 322).
