R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company, 1375 Harrisburg Pike, Lancaster, PA 17601 has submitted an application to the Department of Environmental Protection, Southcentral Regional Office, One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110 for the construction of a four-unit, two-web non-heatset printing press at their Lancaster West facility in Lancaster, Lancaster County.
Based upon the Department's analysis of the information provided by the applicant, this project is subject to the Subchapter E--New Source Review regulations for volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. These provisions require applicants (1) to secure offsets for emissions from the proposed project and (2) to apply emission control technology that provides the lowest achievable emission rate (LAER) for the respective emissions. Emissions offsets for this project's 8.6 tons per year of VOC emissions and other facility VOC emissions increases since 1991 and will be obtained from the company's East plant in Lancaster under Approval No. ER-5027.
The plan approval will include those conditions deemed necessary to ensure compliance with the applicable regulations:
25 Pa. Code 127 Construction, Modification, Reactivation, and Operation of Sources--Subchapter E 25 Pa. Code 135 Reporting of Sources Conditions:
1. Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions generated from the operation and maintenance of the LDM-673 press shall not exceed 8.6 tons/year based upon a consecutive 12-month period and 13.0 lb/hour based upon a daily average.
2. Records shall be maintained for a period of 5 years at the facility and made available to the Department upon request.
3. The following data shall be collected and recorded on a monthly basis:
a. Press run time (hours or impressions for the press)

(6) Vapor pressure
(7) Hazardous Air Pollutants (type and % by weight)
c. VOC emissions (for the press)
(1) the highest lb/hour based upon a daily average
(2) tons/year
d. For VOC emission calculation purposes, the total quantities of each pollutant shall be determined from the actual VOCs in each material and the quantities of each of those materials used rather than using overall averages.
4. The company shall keep all containers containing VOCs and HAPs tightly closed when not in use. This includes containers for clean-up solvents, used liquids and solvent-laden wipes.
5. Press LDM-673 shall not commence operation until the Emission Reduction Credits (ERC), Application ER 36-5027, are entered into the Department's ERC registry system.

Preliminary Determination to Approve an Air Quality Application to Expand the Lanchester Landfill (Application Number 36-322-001B)
Chester County Solid Waste Authority (CCSWA), P. O. Box 476, Honey Brook, PA 19344, has filed an application with the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), Southcentral Regional Office, One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110 to expand the existing Lanchester Landfill. The expansion (Overfill Area) is located in Caernarvon Township, Lancaster County. Overfill Area will be controlled by a gas extraction system, consisting of 45 wells. The extracted gas will be vented to the existing enclosed ground flare.
Conditions will be imposed in the plan approval under the authority granted to the Department by section 6.1 of the Air Pollution Control Act (35 § 4006.1) and 25 Pa. Code § 127.12(b). Such conditions are deemed necessary to insure compliance with the following regulations:
40 CFR Part 60 Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources 35 P. S. § 4000 Pennsylvania Air Pollution Control Act 25 Pa. Code § 122 National Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources 25 Pa. Code § 127 Construction, Modification, Reactivation, and Operation of Sources 25 Pa. Code § 139 Sampling and Testing Based on DEP's analysis of the information provided by the applicant, the following are predicted emissions from the facility after the expansion:
Pollutant tpy PM10 82.0 SO2 10.4 NOx 36.7 NMOC 37.9 The plan approval would be subject to the following conditions:
1. The design capacity of the landfill is as follows:
-2,340,000 tons
-3,350,000 cubic yards2. The landfill and its gas collection system are subject to 40 CFR, part 60, subpart WWW--Standards of Performance for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills.
3. Sources subject to Subpart WWW of the Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources shall comply with all applicable requirements of this subpart. 40 CFR, § 60.4 requires submission of copies of all requests, reports (as outlined in 40 CFR § 60.757), applications, submittals and other communications required under Subpart WWW to both EPA and the Department. The EPA copies shall be forwarded to Director, Air, Toxics and Radiation Division, U. S. EPA, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia, PA 19107-4431.
4. The landfill gas collection system shall be operated in a manner to minimize the occurrence of positive pressure events in components not designed to operate under positive pressure. The components designed to operate under positive pressure are the mechanical blower, the flare and all piping connecting those components.
5. An unanticipated positive pressure event is any positive pressure reading in equipment not designed to operate under positive pressure, except that attributable to routine equipment maintenance. Routine equipment maintenance includes the following enumerated items and all similar activities:
a. Gas collection header repairs
b. Well head repairs or modifications
c. Well valve repairs or replacements
d. Temporary well shutdowns or vacuum reductions to minimize or prevent the introduction of excess air into the landfill
e. Flare station blower repair or replacement
f. Flare relight system testing or repair
g. Flare thermocouple or temperature switch repair or replacement
h. Flare liner inspection, repair or replacement
i. Flare actuator valve repair or replacement
j. Flare flame arrestor basket cleaning
k. Flare control panel timer adjustment or replacement
l. Condensate trap pump repair or replacement
m. Condensate tank pumpouts
n. Electrical service repairs
6. In addition to the monitoring requirements of Subpart WWW, routine leak monitoring of gas collection equipment designed to operate under positive pressure shall be performed monthly utilizing an instrument detector type meeting the specifications and performance criteria contained in Section 3 of 40 CFR, Part 60, Appendix A, EPA Method 21. The measured level of 1.25% v/v (12,500 ppmv) of total organic compounds measured as methane or higher constitutes a leak. Following detection of a leak, secondary testing consisting of application of a soapwater solution must be conducted to suspect equipment to precisely locate the leak.
Detected leaks of gas collection equipment designed to operate under positive pressure shall be repaired as soon as practicable. The Department shall be provided a tentative schedule for completing the repair of any leak not repaired within 72 hours of detection.
7. The existing flare shall be operated to either reduce the nonmethane organic compounds (NMOC) by 98% (by weight) or reduce the outlet NMOC concentration to less than 20 ppmdv (as hexane at 3% oxygen).
8. Compliance with Condition 9 may be demonstrated by maintaining a 3-hour average flare operating temperature of 1,650F (899°C) at a temperature monitoring location which represents a flue gas retention time of 0.5 second. This 3-hour average flare operating temperature shall not deviate by more than 50°F (28°C) as specified in 40 CFR, § 60.758(c)(1)(i).
An alternative flare operating temperature may be authorized provided additional performance testing has demonstrated that compliance with Condition 9 has been achieved.
9. Except as otherwise stated in this condition, the flare shall be operated with a flame present at all times. The flare shall be equipped with an automatic shut-off mechanism designed to immediately stop the flow of landfill gas when a ''flame-out'' occurs. During restart or start-up, there shall be sufficient flow of auxiliary fuel to the burners to light the pilot and maintain a stable flame before landfill gas is delivered to the burners, such that unburned landfill gas is not emitted to the atmosphere. This condition does not apply to the timed ''air purge'' sequence (for removal of fugitive hydrocarbons from the flare enclosure) during restart or start-up.
