   This preliminary RACT determination, if approved, will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP revision will not adopt any new regulations. It will contain the requirements established by the Department in its approval of the RACT plan. Conditions 1, 3, 5--8, 12--14, 16, 17, 19, 21--23, 25--28, 31, 32, 35, 38--41, 44--47 and 49, either in whole or in part, contain the Department's preliminary RACT determination for the respective air contamination sources.

   A copy of the plan approval application, including the RACT plan, is available for public inspection during normal business hours at the address listed. Persons interested in inspecting the application must schedule an appointment in advance.

   A public hearing will be held solely for the purpose of receiving comments on the Department's RACT determination and associated proposed SIP revision. The Department will not be entertaining comments regarding any other aspect of the respective plan approval application or the Department's review of said application at this hearing. The hearing will be held on August 15, 2006, at 1 p.m. at the Department 's Northcentral Regional Office, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701. The public is invited to appear at this public hearing and comment on the Department's preliminary RACT determination and proposed SIP revision.

   Persons wishing to present testimony at the hearing should contact Daniel Spadoni at (570) 327-3659 at least one week in advance of the hearing to reserve a time to present testimony. Oral testimony will be limited to a maximum of 10 minutes per individual and two written copies of the testimony are also requested. Each organization is requested to designate one individual to present testimony on its behalf.

   Persons with a disability who wish to comment at the hearing and require auxiliary aid, service or other accommodations to do so should contact Daniel Spadoni at (570) 327-3659 to discuss how the Department may accommodate your needs.

   Persons unable to attend the hearing, but wish to comment on the Department's preliminary RACT determination and proposed SIP revision or person who has comments which they believe should be considered in the Department's review of any other aspect of the respective plan approval application or persons who wishes to protest the issuance of plan approval may do so by submitting their comments or protests in writing to the Department at the address listed. Comments or protests must be received by the Department by no later than August 30, 2006, to be considered. Each protest or comment should include the following: name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the protest or comment and a concise statement explaining the relevancy of the comment or protest being presented to the Department.

   The Department may hold an additional public hearing to solicit comments on issues and concerns, other than the Department's preliminary RACT determination and proposed SIP revision, pertaining to the respective plan approval application and the Department's review thereof if the Department, in its discretion, decides a hearing is warranted based on the information received. Persons requesting a hearing, protesting the issuance of plan approval or submitting comments will be notified of the decision to hold an additional public hearing by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the Milton area or by letter or telephone if the Department feels that telephone notification is sufficient.

   Written comments, protests, or requests for additional public hearing should be directed to David W. Aldenderfer, Environmental Program Manager, Air Quality Program, Department of Environmental Protection, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701-6448.

   46-00046: Accellent, Inc., (200 West 7th Avenue, Trappe, PA 19426) for renewal of the Title V Operating Permit in Trappe Borough, Montgomery County. The initial permit was issued on July 3, 2001. The facility is primarily used for the fabrication of metal tubing used in the medical, aerospace and automotive industries. The facility cleans the metal parts in the three vapor degreasers that are located at the facility. The vapor degreasers are subject to the requirements of 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart T, and the facility is using control combinations to comply with these regulations. Other sources of VOCs include three boilers, several space heaters, plastic coating processes and parts washers. As a result of potential emissions of VOCs, the facility is a major stationary source as defined in Title I, Part D of the Clean Air Act Amendments, and is therefore subject to the Title V permitting requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G. The proposed Title V Operating Permit Renewal does not adopt any new regulations and does not reflect any change in air emissions from the facility. The facility is not subject to Compliance Assurance Monitoring under 40 CFR Part 64. The renewal contains all applicable requirements including monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting.
