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

AIR QUALITY NOTICE OF PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) 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 DEP, 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 DEP has received applications for plan approvals and/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 identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate Regional Office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of the proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit must indicate their interest to the DEP Regional Office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a Proposed Plan Approval or Operating Permit within 30 days of the DEP providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with DEP 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 DEP schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.
Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the Regional Office identified. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Interstate Ozone Transport Reduction Proposed State Only Operating Permits to establish NOx Allowance Allocations and to include Conditions relating to NOx Budget Trading Program The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue new State Only Operating Permits to incorporate the provisions of 25 Pa. Code §§ 145.1-- 145.90. These regulations establish a NOx Budget and a NOx Budget Trading Program for NOx budget units for the purpose of achieving the health-based ozone ambient air quality standard. The Department is establishing the NOx Allowance Allocations for each NOx budget unit under the provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 145.42.
The new State only operating permits will, beginning in 2003, require the owner or operator of each NOx budget unit to hold a quantity of NOx allowances by November 30 of each year not less than the total NOx emissions for the control period from the NOx budget unit. One NOx Allowance is the limited authorization to emit 1 ton of NOx during the NOx Allowance Control Period, which begins May 1 of each year and ends September 30 of the same year. The NOx allowances held in the source's current year NOx Allowance Tracking System (NATS) compliance and overdraft accounts must be equal to or greater than the total NOx emitted from the source during the year's NOx allowance control period. The initial NOx allowance control period begins on May 1, 2003.
The new State only operating permits will also include emission monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping requirements for each NOx budget source. NOx emissions from each NOx budget source shall be monitored, reported and recorded in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 145.30 and 145.70--145.76.

APPLICATION ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE COMMUNITY WASTE TIRE RECREATIONAL GRANT PROGRAM Applications for the 2001 Community Waste Tire Recreational Grant Program are now available from the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). Under the program, qualified school districts, municipalities and nonprofit organizations in Pennsylvania are awarded grants to use waste tires as a primary material to construct and/or renovate recreational areas and facilities. Applications for the program will be accepted by DEP until 4 p.m. on Friday, September 21, 2001.
Each year, Pennsylvania generates approximately 12 million waste tires. This number is in addition to the estimated 16 million waste tires that currently exist in stockpiles throughout the Commonwealth. Abandoned waste tire piles not only rob the State from the use of viable land, but they also can cause serious environmental, health and safety problems, including tire fires and mosquito infestations. By providing grant funding under the Community Waste Tire Recreational Grant Program, DEP is helping to create a demand for waste tires and is proving that waste tire reuse and recycling can benefit communities throughout Pennsylvania.
Applications for the 2001 Community Waste Tire Recreational Program may be obtained by contacting Dawn Heimbach of the Bureau of Land Recycling and Waste Management at (717) 787-9871 or by e-mail at daheimbach@state.pa.us. Applications are also available electronically on DEP's website at http://www.dep.state.pa.us (directLINK ''waste tires'').
