UNDER ACT 2, 1995

PREAMBLE 1


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 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.

OPERATING PERMITS


Intent to Issue Title V Operating Permits under the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001--4015) and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G.

   Northcentral Region: Air Quality Program, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701, Muhammad Zaman, Facilities Permitting Chief, (570) 327-0512.

   19-00006: Del Monte Corp. (6670 Low Street, Bloomsburg, PA 17815) for renewal of a Title V Operating Permit for their pet food manufacturing facility in South Centre Township, Columbia County.

   The facility incorporates two 26.6 mmBtu per hour natural gas/No. 6 fuel oil-fired boilers, two 50.3 mmBtu per hour natural gas/No. 2 fuel oil-fired boilers, a meat scrap storage operation, a gravy mixing operation, two meat mixers, 20 small natural gas-fired combustion units (space heaters, water heaters, and the like) five solvent parts washers, a 75 horsepower propane-fired emergency generator, two propane-fired welders, a wastewater treatment plant and a 12,000 gallon aboveground fuel oil storage tank.

   The PM emissions from the gravy mixing operation and the two meat mixers are controlled by two wet centrifugal collectors. The malodorous air contaminant emissions from the meat scrap storage operation and the wastewater treatment plant are controlled by three scrubbers.

   The air contaminant emissions from the facility are not expected to exceed 254.95 tons of SOx, 90.78 tons of NOx, 37.05 tons of CO, 25.37 tons of PM including PM10, 3.23 tons of VOCs and 2.04 tons of HAPs per year.

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) proposes to renew Title V Operating Permit 19-00006. The Department intends to incorporate into this renewal all conditions currently contained in Title V Operating Permit 19-00006 with these exceptions, changes and/or additions:

   1.  Conditions requiring weekly ''walk around'' inspections of the facility and the maintenance of records of these inspections have been removed as the respective conditions infer that facility personnel need monitor the facility's air contamination sources only once per week. The monitoring of sources should be an integral part of normal source operation and should therefore occur on a more-or-less continuous basis.

   2.  Ten small natural gas-fired combustion units (space heaters, and the like) previously included in the permit (as part of Source 039) have been removed as they no longer exist and 11 new small natural gas-fired combustion units have been added (as Source 040).

   3.  A condition requiring the maintenance of records of the amount of natural gas used per month in the small combustion units comprising Source 039 as well as records of the number of hours these units operate each month has been removed from the permit as the intent of these records had been to demonstrate compliance with VOC emission limitations which the combustion units, in aggregate, are incapable of exceeding even if fired at maximum capacity around the clock. As there is no question of compliance with the respective limitations, there is no need to maintain the previously-required records.

   4.  Five remote reservoir solvent parts washers previously included in the permit (as Source P205) have been removed as they no longer exist and five new remote reservoir solvent parts washers have been added (as Source P206). Additionally, the applicable regulatory requirements for the new parts washers, as specified in 25 Pa. Code § 129.63, have been added to the permit.

   5.  A number of propane-fired sources (forklifts, and the like) previously included in the permit (as part of Source P209) have been removed as they are mobile air contamination sources, rather than stationary air contamination sources, and, as such, should not be included in the permit. Two propane-fired sources (two welders) have however been added to the permit (Source P209).

   6.  Conditions requiring the use of a specific reagent, ''Redoxx 60,'' in the scrubbing solution used in the three odor scrubbers (C002--C004) associated with the meat scrap storage operation (Source P211) and wastewater treatment plant (Source P213) have been modified to allow the use of alternate reagents provided that the resultant scrubbing solution contains the same concentration of the same active ingredient, peroxyacetic acid.

   7.  A condition requiring the maintenance of records of the vapor pressure of the material stored in the 12,000 gallon No. 2 fuel oil storage tank (Source P215) has been replaced with a condition requiring the maintenance of records of the identity of the material stored in the respective tank. A condition has also been added restricting the respective tank to the storage of No. 2 fuel oil.
