Approval of Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) plan for Masonite, Division of International Paper.
The Department of Environmental Protection has made a preliminary determination to approve a Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for several air contamination sources at a facility owned and operated by Masonite, Division of International Paper in Wysox Township, Bradford County.
The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the RACT approval for the facility to comply with current regulations.
The preliminary RACT determination, if finally approved, will be incorporated into an operating permit for the facility and will be submitted to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania's State Implementation Plan.
The sources for which a RACT determination is being made are two combination wood/natural gas-fired boilers. The following is a summary of the preliminary RACT determination for these boilers.
Source RACT Limitations * Union Iron Works 82.4 million BTU per hour boiler (Boiler no. 1) nitrogen oxides emissions (NOx, expressed as NO2) shall not exceed .2 pound per million BTU of heat input and 74.1 tons in any 12 consecutive month period and volatile organic compound emissions shall not exceed .04 pound per million BTU of heat input and 14.3 tons in any 12 consecutive month period. * E. Keeler MKB 161 million BTU per hour boiler

The facility incorporates additional nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compound sources for which RACT determinations will be made at a later date.
