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.

PA 48-306-011: Northampton Generating Co. (1 Horwith Drive, Northampton, PA 18067) for modification of their facility, to satisfy four conditions before approval to modify an operation may be granted by Department of Environmental Protection (Department) in the Borough of Northampton, Northampton County.
In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44(b) and 127.424(b), the Department intends to issue Plan Approval No. 48-306-011 to Northampton Generating Company, 1 Horwith Drive, Northampton, PA 18067 for their facility in the Borough of Northampton, Northampton County. This plan approval will be incorporated into the Title V operating permit No. 45-00021 through an administrative amendment at a later date, and the action will be published as a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
The PSD regulations require specific sources of air pollution, such as the proposed modification of the facility, to satisfy four conditions before approval to modify an operation may be granted by Department. First, all pollutants that are subject to this regulation must be controlled by the best available control technology. Second, particulate and SO2 air pollutant emissions must not cause violations of the allowable annual, 24 hour, or 3-hour air quality class increments applicable in the area where the source is to be located; nor any class increments applicable in any other areas which would be impacted by the source. Third, the maximum allowable increase in concentrations of all pollutants must not cause a violation of either the National primary or secondary ambient air quality standards. Finally, the pollutant emissions from the proposed source must not adversely impact upon soils, vegetation and visibility in the vicinity of he proposed plant site.
The company has requested to increase its annual CO emission limit from 425.2 tpy to 753.4 tpy. The company will not alter the originally established BAT limit of 172 lb/hr. The company has requested to remove the existing percent SO2 removal requirements, since the low sulfur fuels that are presently being combusted can not practically be removed at the rate as specified in the permit. Presently the company has a SO2 emissions limit of 0.129 lb/mmBtu and reduction requirements of 92% both on 24-hr block average. The company has also proposed to clarify the existing limitations on alternate fuels. The present air pollution control equipment, baghouses for particulate control, Selective Non Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) for NOX control, and Lime injection for SO2 controls will not be altered in any manner to facilitate the above proposals. Theses control units will operate in their normal manner (These control technologies were evaluated under PSD application No. 48-306-008).
A preliminary review of the information submitted by the Northampton Generating Company indicates that the proposed operation of the plant facility will meet all applicable air quality requirements including the four stated previously. Based upon these findings, Department plans to approve the application and issue a permit for the facility.
The following table summarizes the potential emissions from maximum operation of the facility according to the application submitted and the Department's own analysis;
Pollutant Units Pounds/hour Tons/year PM10 0.088 lb/mmBtu 10.1 34.7 SOx 0.129 lb/mmBtu 147.8 557.8 CO 0.15 lb/mmBtu 172 753.4 NOx 0.1 lb/mmBtu 115 449.6 VOC 0.005 lb/mmBtu 5.74 23.4 The emissions of these pollutants are within all applicable emissions limitations and will not cause an exceedance of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. NOx, SO2 and PM emissions from the proposed modification will not increase at a significant rate. A decrease in NOx and SOx emissions will occur from the previously approved allowable level due to this proposal. No net increase will occur in total particulate, and sulfur oxides emissions from this project, therefore, the particulate and SOx emissions do not affect the allowable annual, 24 hour or 3 hour air quality class increments applicable in the area. The increase in operating hours will not affect the emission rate of any of the other pollutants the facility emits.
The requested change will not affect any of the modeled CO concentrations since the facility's short-term CO emission limits will remain in effect. Furthermore, since CO does not have any long-term NAAQS or PSD standards associated with it, a modeling demonstration is unnecessary for NGC's requested increase in its annual allowable CO emission limits. NGC's short-term (1 and 8 hour) CO emission rates remain unchanged from their previous limits. An increase in annual allowable CO emission limits does not lead to substantial (PSD triggering) increases in other criteria pollutants emitted by NGC.
To assure compliance with the applicable standards, the Department will place the following conditions on the plan approval.
1. The emission rates for the pollutant from the facility shall not exceed the following emission limits.
Pollutant Units Pounds/hour Tons/year PM10 0.088 lb/mmBtu 10.1 34.7 SOx 0.129 lb/mmBtu 147.8 557.8 CO 0.15 lb/mmBtu 172 753.4 NOx 0.1 lb/mmBtu 115 449.6 VOC 0.005 lb/mmBtu 5.74 23.4
The facility must cease operation or obtain prior approval under applicable regulations if any of the pollutant exceeds the total annual emissions tons per year limit.
2. This plan approval allows the use of high carbon ash, petroleum coke, coal (anthracite/bituminous), paper processing residual (filter cake), and virgin wood chips, as an alternative fuel in conjunction with anthracite culms in the circulating fluidized boiler. The co-firing rates for all of the approved fuels shall not exceed the following tons per hour limitations calculated based on a monthly basis:
a. Coal (anthracite or bituminous)--15 TPH.
b. Petroleum Coke--32 TPH.
c. Paper processing residual (fiber-reject, filter-cake, sludge press cake) from paper recycling processes--25 TPH, subject to the approval of the Bureau of Waste Management
d. Virgin woodchips--20 TPH, subject to the approval of the Bureau of Waste Management.
e. High carbon ash--50 TPH.

PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY (PWS) PERMITS The Department of Environmental Protection 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, 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. 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 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.

HAZARDOUS SITES CLEANUP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988 Settlement Under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act F. E. Cooper Site; Broad Top Township, Bedford County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 9601--9675), has entered into a proposed settlement with Broad Top Township (Settlor).
The proposed settlement resolves claims of the Department with the Settlor under HSCA, CERCLA and other applicable law for response costs that have been expended and will be incurred by the Department at the F. E. Cooper Site located in Broad Top Township, Bedford County.
Based on information that the Department has obtained concerning the Settlor and the Site and based on the information certified by the Settlor in this Consent Order and Agreement, the Department has determined that Settlor: (1) did not conduct or permit the generation, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any hazardous substances at the Site; (2) did not contribute to the release or threatened release of hazardous substances at the Site through any act or omission.
The Settlor grants the Department and its designated agents, including contractors and responsible persons under the direction of the Department, access to and entry upon the property to perform response actions at the property. Use restrictions on activities that would disturb or interfere with the bedrock groundwater are required over a designated area of the site until remaining contamination becomes abated. No access to the Juniata River within the designated area shall be allowed.
The proposed settlement obligates the Settlor to remit $1 to the Department. The Department believes that the proposed settlement is fair, reasonable, practicable, in the public interest and in furtherance of the statutory goals of HSCA and CERCLA.
For a period of 60 days beginning with the August 26, 2006, publication date of this notice, the public is invited to review the Consent Order and Agreement, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Department's Southcentral Region Office located at 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Crystal Snook at (717) 705-6648.
